Is that possible. Thanks for your help

MenuPop is the sound when you touch your screen. hwandsw is the sound when you choose to open/activate a file. Try renaming your .wav file to MenuPop and see if that works.

Sorry if I'm still not understanding.....I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of it one way or another.

I changed the menupop file and it still didn't work. Here is the screen tap I want to change but I can seem to find the file. thanks for all your help

don't know if this helps but if you search haptics they have a prog that enables vibrating for taps i know its not what you asked for but it might interest you as far as the sound have you tried searching the registry ?

did you soft reset after changing file as it might have been cached ?
i searched registry and couldn't find it

i'd love to know how to change the screen tap sound on my titan. already replaced the stock sound file with a renamed replacement, and tried the registry tweak listed here...still makes the stock sound.

Maybe this should be moved to the tweaks section since it's not phone specific. I'm also using a Titan. I made the reg edit and changed the file as described. The problem is that the MenuPop wav file is not the file for the screen tap. At least it's not for WM 6.5, which I'm running. Maybe it was for 6.0/6.1. I searched my phone high and low and can't find the file that makes the screen tap sound. However, the MenuPop wav does sound whenever I press a menu option, ie File Explorer/Menu.

Try unchecking it. I don't have it checked on my TP and my clicks/pops/whirs work fine. Having it enabled may be over-riding the registry changes you're making.
