Change my text tone for a palm treo pro

Is there a way to change the texting rington on the Palm Treo Pro to something other than the few items they allow you to choose from.
I want to set Alarm4 as my text alert and it only gives me a few. Alarm4 is allowed in a few other notification options, but not on the text message one. Can I move a default alarm for one time to another item?

I have the 800w, but it's the same version of Windows Mobile, so I think the following might apply to your phone, too.
Alarm4 is a .wma-format file, while the old-style alerts are MIDI format file. I don't know why, but some of the notification drop-downs list both, and some list just MIDI files. But they all list some ring tones that I downloaded from Microsoft. Hmmm...
In File Explorer, my downloaded ring tones are in My Device\Application Data\Sounds. So if you were able to copy Alarm4 into that folder, you might be able to assign it to any notification.
I can't see any way to copy files in File Explorer. You might need to do it through ActiveSync or a third party file manager.
If you experiment with this, let us know how it goes.

  • Changing ringtone/text tone on an application you downloaded

    Is there a way to change a text tone or ringtone on a certain application you downloaded. I only see the option for sound on or off.

    yes i downloaded the gmail app from the app store because i receive emails faster via this app then from the iphone. i went to settings on both and there's no option to change tones. Also the tones that are used are from the iphone so i figure there would be some option to change it, but can't find it and it's not in notifications.

  • Is there a way to change the alert tone for the find my iphone app?

    Is there a way to change the alert tone for the find my iphone app? The one they use from the factory is terrible! I tried it out and could hardly hear it from 5 feet away!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately, so far as I am aware you cannot change this tone. I must admit I don't fully understand your problem, I've tried it myself and can hear it from some distance away.

  • I purchased a text tone from Itunes.  It shows up in my library, but not as a text tone.  Is there a way for me to set it as a text tone for all texts?  Or I am stuck with factory settings?

    So it is conseidered a customized text tones even if it was purchased through iTunes?  Confusing.  Since I bought it through itunes as a text tone I assumed it would work.  OOOPS
    Thanks so much

  • Need technical help for Palm Treo Pro

    I am currently using a Palm Treo Pro. The handheld keeps turning on Airplane mode automatically when I was talking on the phone. This happens quite frequently but it never happen when I was talking through Bluetooth hand-free.
    I called up the local support centre but they simply told me to exchange a new one at DHL station. The problem now still exists with my new handheld. Just wanna know what I should do... Thank you.

    Hi Alan,
    Firstly, thanks for your reply.
    I have tried to hard reset my device and even exchange a new handheld. The situation remains the same. For the past two days, the same problem occured five time in total. 
    How can a phone turn on the Airplane Mode automatically during a call? This is really distributing and it is totally unacceptable. I have tried to call the tech centre but no one in there could help me. They just told me to exchange a new one, which I had done before.
    Hope someone can help me up.

  • Bluetooth code for Palm Treo Pro

    I am trying to connect my Palm Treo Pro and the bluetooth hands free on my Mercedes. What is the code to allow authorisation between the phone and car? I have tried to set up from both directions and have tried the standard codes 0000, 1122, 1234 etc and none work. I assumed that so long as the codes matched it didn't matter but this doesn't appear to be the case but I can reauthorise with my old phoen so the problem seems to be with the Pam settings. I can't see how to make the phone discoverable but can see the options to turn on the bluetooth and make visible. The car and phone can find each other but can't seem to handshake. Any suggestions most welcome!

  • Continue Support for PALM Treo PRO Please

    It's Like Palm Treo Pro was left out to Dry.  Palm, I have been a Palm customer since your first Treo and I have never seen such a horrible thing to do to your faithfull customers
    I suggest Palm to try to have a group work on an WebOS like the pre; For the Treo Pro (who went thru a rapped replacement with the Pre then the Pixi after customers belived in Palm with its last TREO). The Treo Pro, which is a good phone, but with little or no support since it came out.
    Make an anauncment for this support or an Upgrade or Recall for those customeres all around the world. 
    Hey "HP", if your the new owner of Palm then have the Treo Pro as an example of good business with HP treo, have Microsoft upgrade this phone, the Palm Treo Pro W850 to the new Windows Mobile 7 for the Treo Pro.  Hope to here from you soon.

    The Treo Pro is a good WinMoPro 6.1 phone. As far as I know, that is all it will ever be.
    You can't bring webOS to a the Treo Pro's 320x320 resistive touchscreen; it wouldn't be the same experience at all, even if it worked.
    To me, WinMoPro 6.1 feels more productive than WinMo 6.5. If you miss the improved IE, you can improve your web experience with the Skyfire browser, or Opera Mobile. The usefulness of Win7 remains a question mark, but I doubt the Treo Pro satisfies its hardware requirements.

  • Which sync software downloads do I use for Palm treo pro?

    Hi ! I mentioned before on the forums I have a used palm treo pro. I have just realised I do not have the synchronisation software. I looked on the net and found different windows synching softwares 'free' for windows. Am I supposed to look for the software which states it works for the 6.1 windows mobile operating system (on palm treo pro)as I cannot see that sort of thing recommended on the different downloads. The link below seems to be the closest but I cannot imagine a mobile running 6.1 windows using this.  I am fairly clueless as I have never synced before. I am going to hotsync some CoPilot sat nav software . Can someone help me out.  Thanks very much !  http://download.cnet.com/Microsoft-ActiveSync/3000​-2094_4-10031823.html
    Also just to say this is what I am attempting with CoPilot- http://www.alk.eu.com/buynow/download-instructions​.htm . Scrolling down this link to the title under STEP 2 saying Alternative method it shows the type of hotsyncing I need to do. Anyone with any knowledge should understand this and hopefully could advise. I have put the link in this message as I am looking for the correct hotsync software. 
    Thanks again!

    Alpine23, I've moved your post from the Windows HotSync section to here, due to the fact your device does not use that software - "Hotsync" refers to devices that run PalmOS.
    Your device runs Windows Mobile.  What you use to sync it depends on the operating system on your computer.  Older OS's like Windows XP use a program called "Microsoft ActiveSync".  Newer computers running Vista or Win7 use "Windows Mobile Device Center:

  • ATT data setting for Palm Treo Pro

    I can no longer access the internet with my Palm Treo Pro.  My service provider is ATT and they were not able to provide me with the data settings.  I have searched high and low but haven't been able to find them anywhere - I'd appreciate any help.  It is a huge pain only being only to access internet/email at wifi hotspots!

    Generically, your current settings should be here:
    Start > Settings > Connections tab > Tasks tab > "Manage existing connections"
    I am a Sprint customer, so don't know what yours should say. Did they walk you through re-creating your "Modem" connection in this dialog?

  • Cannot send email with Palm Treo Pro

    Hi,
    We have a Palm Treo Pro that was previously configured to sync with exchange 2003 and at the same time also had an IMAP email account setup for another email address.  We have since removed the Exchange email account and only have the IMAP account configured.  Since removing the exchange account we can no longer send email from the phone, but can receive fine.  The error we get when trying to send is listed below.
    "The message(s) could not be sent.  Check that you have network coverage and that you account information is correct then try sending again"
    The connection is fine because we can receive email and browse fine.  The account information is also correct.  We are using the SMTP server settings for the phones provider and that requires no authentication.  I have also tried a different SMTP server with the appropriate user credentials but still get that message.
    I have contacted the phone provider (Telstra) but they were no use.
    We did have to load on a self signed certificate to get the exchange email working and I dont know whether this is causing any issues.
    If anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated

  • Pairing my Palm Treo Pro with my car

    I keep trying to pair my treo with my car (bluetooth) and it asks for a code - I have no code so press next - it then says I can't connect incorrect code, but my car system then gives me a code that I enter in - and it says I cannot connect, incorrect code!
    I had this problem with my last Treo and then soemone else paired it for me as they had a code from an engineer which allows you then to enter the car code - does anyone know the code?  I have tried 0000 and 1234 and 9999 - any suggestions?

    Setup as a Pop, it gets my EMail on a regular schedule.
    In the Outlook setup mode,as I said it ONLY downloaded what I had on my Computer in outlook.
    Do you know of a way to have it actually get real time mail via the outlook settings vice a pop3?
    As far as I know, Windows Mobile doesn't offer that. I think you will need two accounts set up. One will be sync'd with Outlook for Contacts, Calendar, and Tasks (Email would be optional here). The other would be a standard POP3 account to retrieve and send email in real time. Unfortunately, the Sent Items on that account will not be sync'd to Outlook

    as I have a very very weak Sprint Signal in the house, even getting my Email is hard, but If there were someway to use the Wifi to connect to the internet, that would be fine.
    You can use the Wireless/Connection Manager to turn different radios (CDMA, wi-fi) on and off. If you tap the connection icon at the top of the home screen, you can access it from there. You might need to turn off your cellular data connection in order to take advantage of wi-fi, but you might want to check the user guide, as it might be the other way around.
