Tone for each contact! - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hello everybody, I wonder, if some of you know if is possible to assign a mp3, o a ringtone, for each contact in our phonebook in the MiniCM7 by paul, for mini pro. Since i tried this rom i have never could, but I want to know if it is a fact, I mean is impossible, or is just making some modifications in the setting I have no idea.
Thanks for your help...
iCerebro..

Yep, just open the contact, press menu key (the left one) and go to the "options". Here you will find how to change the ringtone. Do not go to "edit contact"

Thank you so much....
I always was getting in edit contact, but nothing happened...
I thought it was because the rom... :S
And, this is for every terminal with Gingerbread, I mean, that is the way for editing the tone?
You were very helpful...!

Vibrate Notification for SMS/email?

OK this might be a stupid question but is it possible to set the phone to vibrate when you receive a SMS or an email (I don't really mind about the email but SMS would be really useful)?
This is my first android (well, after messing around with it on the X1) and I'm unsure if the phone has this feature or not. I've checked the app marketplace and couldn't find anything.
Many thanks!
EDIT: Sorry I found the option for vibrate on email.
EDIT 2: And I just found it for SMS, could and admin lock please, sorry for the stupid post.
can u share how u did it?

Go to Messaging, press the Menu button (left button on the X10), and you'll see Settings, click that. Vibrate is on the bottom. I'm sure it's the same for email.

Where to find the fallback ringtone?

Hi,
does anybody know where the default fallback ringtone is saved?
If I select a song with musicpicker and then delete this file the phone falls back to a default "bbbbrr ...bbbrrr ...bbbrrr" tone, but in the menu is the sound "World from Dr. MAD" selected.
I want to select the fallback tone, I like it
nobody? perhaps someone with a rooted phone can find the soundfile?
I attached a mic-recording of the tone.
pleeease
here you go...

Does anyone know where on the phone this ringtone is located? I've checked /system/media/audio/ringtones, alarms, notifications and ui folders but it isn't there.
Sorry for digging up the old thread.

[Q] SMS Notification issue

Hello
I have upgrade my HD2 from 1.66 to 3.14 - stock european rom (danish). No extra's except Cookies hometab.
I have searched, and searched and found answers, but sadly they do not work here.
Issue: SMS Notification: SMS Sent successfully (translated)
I do not want it. And i cannot seem to turn it off.
I have looked into SMS -> Settings .... and there is no mark in the SMS Delivery Report (again my translation). Tried some registry changes found using google, and still the I get the notification.
So the question is: how to turn it off ? Is it possible ?
tia
mvh / best regards
I had the same issue, and I could disable it.
When you're in the settings tab, use the Menu soft key and click the Plus menu item (it should be the only one), to access the Windows Mobile (i.e. not Sense's) control panel.
From there, you should be able to navigate to (roughly translated, I use the French ROM) sounds and notifications(sounds and alerts ?), then navigate to the second tab. There is a drop down list where you can select the "SMS sent" notification, and then, uncheck all the boxes to stop notifications.
When this is done, just press OK at the top left corner of the screen to save the changes, and return to the manila (sense) UI.
I hope this solves your problem.

Hi and thank you.
I tried it, but no effect.
It is not a big issue - just a small annoying one
so I can live with it.

Guys from HTC will probably never make SMS working perfectly on HD2. Fixing one thing, break another. These annoying notifications happen because of a missing registry entry. Just add it manually:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jataayu\Messaging]
"DisableSMSSuccess"=dword:00000001
Worked for me.

And for me as well. Thank you.
Perhaps something for Tips & Tricks ?
If you don´t want to mess with the registry there is a cab file that does it for you.
http://www.4shared.com/file/9eCnZJR4/SMS_zend_popup_uitschakelen.html
It´s in dutch but it works with any language.
I installed the cab to disable the "message sent" notification, but since then the sms conversation mode has stopped working. When I receive a message I can see it on the messages screen but when I tap it the screen opens with the top half of the screen blank, where the sender's message should be displayed. The bottom half of the screen shows the reply section with "Tap to add text".
Uninstalled the cab and soft reset but cannot get back the conversation mode. I seem to remember someone posting about a similiar issue with an earlier rom, but despite searching I can't find it.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help.
Edit: deleted all my messages and now conversation mode seems to be working again
Fix worked
This has really been bugging me since upgrading too..reg fix suggested works a treat with no ill side effects, thanks!
i created the registry key and it worked.
Thanks a lot!

sorry to ask you again
can you write me what do i add?
i dont want to use the cab
i added as you said the dword value but it didnt work.maybe the DisableSMSSucess should be DisableSMSSuccess?
change ur rom...
i added the string manually and all ok
In some cases you need to set following value, too:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings]
"SMSNoSentMSG"=dword:00000001
Hi. Its a common problem. I called HTC Support and they said that is an error in this ROM upgrade. They still dont know if an upgrade will come to fix the proglem. It probably will. I had the same problem so I "Downgraded" the ROM to 1.66
Regards
Stefan

For the annoying language bar, you can opt for a better option. Use swiftkey or Smart keyboard and it will replaced the language bar with text prediction box. A lot more useful.
For me the most annoying thing is the blue theme that has got even worse and still can't be changed!!!
Other than that I'm pretty happy with the update. I might not say that in a few weeks once I've tried everything but for now I'm happy.

Cheers I can confirm this works
I've gone with anysoftkeyboard which is free and doesnt put anything on your screen.
In the 1.6 version of gmail - you could press shift+s and then select the text you wanted to copy into the clipboard.
Now that 2.1 has been released pressing shift+s just makes a cursor appear, which is fine if the x10 mini/pro had a trackball but it doesn't.
Does anyone know how to copy and paste in 2.1 gmail?
EDIT (2010,11,10) - Found Solution:
If you press and hold the shift button while selecting your text on the screen it copies to the clipboard just fine
(obviously this is only a solution if you have a mini pro)

Actually, after a bit of searching i've found the solution to this.

(obviously this is only a solution if you have a mini pro)
I will update my original post.
one annoyance would be that I have to use Roadsync for Microsoft Exchange?
does anyone know how to use/install default Android 2.1 email client for exchange?
is it possible with anysoftkeboard to have an on-screen keyboard with multikeys (I mean [abc] [def] [ghi] ...)? because a whole screen keyboard in portrait mode is too small, that's why I have a minipro!

Well I am talking about copying content from existing email while you are reading it. Futhermore I have mini, so no shift button, but then most of the android phones dont have qwerty so how the hell this works in general for others?

I'm not sure what you mean.. But in the gmail app you can copy text from any message (either a received, a draft or already sent) with the method that was described.
Again, i know this doesn't really help you in any way because you don't have a keyboard :-(

This works...sort of.
I now have native exchange support on my X10 mini pro.
I used root explorer to move /system/app/SemcEmailSmall.apk to my sdcard
then copied the email.apk from the link above into /system/app/ and set permissions to rw-r--r--
so far so good. Doesn't look like there is an option for calendar sync but at least exchange mail works.

Thanks but when I try to install it I get "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE]"
@l00k, does the contacts sync work at least?
You need to get rid of the other file first as per my other post. It won't install through app manager

[Q] contact icon is missing

I dont know what happen. I woke up one morning and the contact icon on the bottom of the home screen is gone. I usualy have four icons there. Phone contact messaging and application. But now i only have three. I still could see contact icon inside application. how do i fix it?
Open application drawer, menu, edit, long press the relevant icon and put it back? Or similar, I forget the exact order of things in TW.
how do i do that? im running on stock ics. I didnt root
I just told you? What's unclear and why are you going on about root?
In the 'Phone contact messaging and application', click on the application icon.
press the 'menu/options' button - this is the left of the 3 buttons at the bottom of the phone. this will pop-up a menu. Select 'Edit' from this menu.
You can now move all the icons about. You can move icons from page to page and also from the page to the 'Phone contact messaging and application'.
Once you have changed it to the way you want it, select the 'menu/options' button and select Save.
This has been already answered, but I thought I would make it a bit clearer. There is no requirement to root the phone for this as it is a standard feature of Android.
