Ok we just upgraded our blackberries to the new verizon 5.0 and we now have the ptt application on the phones. Our only problem is that the ptt has a very weird beep(nothing like nextels beep), is there anyway to change the sound it makes in the ptt app? Because it makes you look like a ****** when you use it. haha
I asked the same question yesterday too... no one got back to me either... I can't figure it out either... the sound it makes is pretty weird. I'd like to change it if I can
Well i found the hidden sounds options, where you can change the PTT alert sound but not the chirp. go to SMS and MMS>Menu key>Message alerts>phone>incoming ptt alert
I love how a new feature is released and is less than 48 hours old, and people go to the forums asking questions and get mad when people don't respond immediately. It's brand new. People need to learn it and experiment with it before they can answer questions. Heck, the ones that would answer are probably doing just that rather than looking at the forums.
