Re: WM 6.5 Kitchen QVGA and VGA Developer Edition

Hi guys
Don't know if this will help anyone thats haveing sound & ringtone problems what i found with Diamond GSM Ship ROMs and other roms too
I'v been Cleaning out the crap from OEM* folders and Found a MESS in the OEMDrivers *rgu (double entries) with different values? "Note: only one will be in final "regestry"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{DDBD 3B44-80B0-4b24-9DC4-839FEA6E559E}]
"AvailableOptions"=dword:0000000b
"Duration"=dword:00000000
"Options"=dword:00000009
"Wave"="\\Windows\\Alert-Blip.wma"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{DDBD 3B44-80B0-4b24-9DC4-839FEA6E559E}]
"Options"=dword:9
"Duration"=dword:0
"AvailableOptions"=dword:0000000b
"Wave"="\\Windows\\Alert-Sonar.wma"

and then mxip_HtcApps_HTC_Ringtone_2008.provxml also changes these values again

It seems there are "Sound Packs" called HTC_Diamond_Sound_Suite_2008 and HTC_Rhodium_Topaz_Sound_Suite_2009, the Rhodium_Topaz one! has no *.provxml that i'v found and if you check your [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\ on your devices you'll find most of them are pointing to files that are not in the ROM!!

Also this is pointing to windows YES? "Wave"="\\Windows\\Alert-Sonar.wma"
In your initflshfiles.dat you have these lines
;============================For Ringtone ===============================================
Directory("\Windows")irectory("Rings")
Directory("\Windows\Rings"):-File("Alert-Blip.wma","\Windows\Alert-Blip.wma")
Directory("\Windows\Rings"):-File("Alert-Bubbles.wma","\Windows\Alert-Bubbles.wma")
Directory("\Windows\Rings"):-File("Alert-Dopple.wma","\Windows\Alert-Dopple.wma")
Directory("\Windows\Rings"):-File("Alert-Fader.wma","\Windows\Alert-Fader.wma") ETC.ETC.

So all these *.wma files get copyed to windows\rings\ That's 3.4MB x 2 = 6.8MB in ringtones and all the rgu entries say? "Wave"="\\Windows\\Alert-Sonar.wma" not "Wave"="\\Windows\\Rings\\Alert-Sonar.wma"

so removeing these lines from initflashfiles, could save you 3.4MB

Directory("\Windows\Rings"):-File("Alert-Dopple.wma","\Windows\Alert-Dopple.wma")

Is there any wonder some devices Don't know weather to ring or buzz

P.S. if your sound pack is HTC_Rhodium_Topaz_Sound_Suite_2009 then your getting whatever survives when OEMDrivers *.rgu is merged in build process,

regards
