=== Introduction===

When dialing on the phone with sound enabled, the phone makes really really loud noises. There are a number of ways to address this. One's
first attempt might be to lower the volume on the DTMF mp3s. However, a quick examination of the phone app indicates that these same sounds
are played over the phone for touch-tone responsive systems, so mucking with them is not a good idea.

=== The Change===

The key is the TelephoneyCommands.sendDTMF function. It sends a tone over the network, or optionally, just a noise on the speaker (if the second argument is true: it's
mapped to a service parameter called "feedBackOnly". In dialpad assistant, simply commenting out these

lines stops the noise. This dialpad assistant is by default located in

/usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.phone/app/controllers/dialpad-assistant.js.

The lines of interest in dialpad-assistant.js are:

Line 509 for the touch screen.

Line 791 for the keyboard keys.

(The lines are 634 and 929 with 1.1)

Comment out one or both, as desired.

To "comment out" a line, add // at the beginning. Example:
<pre><nowiki>
printf("This is code");
//printf("This is commented out");
</nowiki></pre>

 Second, open the dialpad-assistant.js file in your editor (e.g. vi dialpad-assistant.js). I actually find copying the file to /media/internal then opening it on my pc. Once the edits are done, I copy it back to the location on the pre.
-Once you have the file open, search (or scan) for "TelephoneyCommands.sendDTMF". There are two instances. At the end of this page are approximate line numbers, but these can change from version to version.

 As is indicated above, you need to comment out the tones. At the beginning of those two lines, add "//" to comment them out.
 That's IT!
