You might already know this but Yay 4 Jugg's ROM has 4 sliding sounds you can choose from.

You need to do the following using a registry editor:

Go to the \\HKLM\Software\HTC\SlidingSound key -

Change to read as follows -

ActiveSlidingSound = 0 (tells it which string value to use - in this case 0)
SlidingSoundEffect = 1 (tells it to turn Sliding Sounds on)

Then, add a new key under SlidingSound called 0 (thats zero) so it would be -

\\HKLM\Software\HTC\SlidingSound\0

You don't need 1 or 2 - those are just keys for alternate sounds.

Then under 0 - add 3 new STRING VALUES

Default - with a DATA field of what you want the theme to be - I entered Star Trek

in - with the IN sound. I entered Slider0_in.wav

out - with the OUT sound. I entered Slider0_out.wav

Save and EXIT.

Use two slider sounds mentioned above. You can use any sound you like, just name them the same as its listed in the registry. Put them in the Windows directory on your Touch Pro.

Once the sounds are there and the registry is edited, reboot your phone. Things should work just fine!

thanks that did the trick! works great. There is a big delay when playing a sound when I put keyboard back, so I am just using sound for keyboard out since that is immediate.

I don't get any delay but I am also using a custom sound file for both in and out. Mine is based on the light saber sound effects.

Tiermann Slide Sound cab attached. Install to device memory.

Also attached a zip file containing a bunch of wav files. Based on CMYLXGO's work, but I added a couple. I use Achmed the Dead Terrorist - gets lots of looks. The Star Trek door sounds is cool also.

Unzip the sounds, and move the entire wav folder as-is to the root of your storage card. Then just point the slide sounds program to your storage card and the wav files will show up in the menu list. (Better than having the files cluttering up your windows directory, IMO.)
