Every time I put my Palm on the Touchstone, it makes a Tong-Tong noise telling me it's charging. I know it's charging. Is there a way (hack?) to eliminate this noise without removing the system sounds?

 

Thanks

I don't think you can on a standard Pre.  I used PreWare to install the patch which silences the charging notification sound.

It's a defect of the touchstone. Try to exchange it (warranty)

This is not a defect. This electronic sound is telling me that the unit is charging.

There is a patch available from Preware that will eliminate this. I too agree that having to hear the notification sound everytime I charge my phone is unecessary.  Instead of the phone indicating me with an audible alert, it simply vibrates.

 

To find out how to install Preware, check out this thread from PreCentral.net:  http://forums.precentral.net/webos-internals/199090-preware.html

Well, it's a small but known defect of the Touchstone. An exchange will help.

No, this isn't a bug, defect, or issue with the touchstone. They aren't talking about the issue where the phone continually emits the "tong tong" sound and can't sync up to the touchstone. The OP's touchstone is apparently working quite well. They just want to turn off the initial notification sound when they place their phone on the touchstone.
