Since everyother forum has one of these that are sticky, its time to add some for our new phone as well. Feel free to add your own as well.
MP3/WMA/WAV for Ringtones:
Add media files into "\Windows\Rings\" folder
or
Use File Explorer and click and hold on media file and select "Set as Ringtone"
They will now be available in the phone preference section as well as the contact ringtone section.
Recommendation: Use only 15-20 second long clips for ringtones to save space. A good program to use is MP3Splitter. You can download it
here.
WAV for SMS/EMAIL/Alerts/Alarms:
Add WAV files into "\Windows\" Folder
They will now be available in the Settings>Sounds and Notifications section.
Recommendation: Use only 5-20 second long clips for Alerts to save space.

Speed Up Your Windows Mobile Pocket PC.
WOW my Pocket PC is fast! I just bumped into an old registry tweak that I have yet to use o_n Windows Mobile 2003. A foreign site todopocketpc had mentioned this and I was surprised I had not used it o_n my new install. o_nce I applied this reg tweak I immediately saw a difference in how fast my Windows Mobile Pocket PC responded. Today plugins load faster my Games folder loads faster. Its just an overall better experience. I would highly suggest backing up your Pocket PC before you try this as playing with your registry can cause problems if you do not know what you are doing. Protect your Pocket PC BACKUP!
If you need a registry editor, you can find a free o_ne at http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/regeditce.shtml
1. Open your registry editor o_n your Pocket PC
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\
3. Change the value of 'limit' from 8192 to 32768
4. Close registry editor and soft reset.
That's it! Let me know what your results are

I actually used 16384 instead, as it would use less memory and its a happy medium.

Registry Hack for keyboard LEDs
Open you registry editing program and go to: HKEY_Current_User, then go to Control Panel, then to Backlight, then at the bottom you'll see a key that says QKEYLED TIMEOUT.
Modify that key and change the D Word from 10 to whatever seconds you want. I have mine set for 60. After you make your change click ok, then do a soft reset. It works for me! 60 seconds seems to be for me the best setting, 10 seconds was way to short. Hope this helps!

Here is a link to many PPC registry hacks.

Just so you guys know, most of the registry tweaks above are included in Tweaks2k2 .NET. For ease of use, I recommend that program. The newest version works perfectly on my PPC-6700. There are many other tweaks in there as well.
Ill add more as i think of them or find them.
Mods, can we make this sticky?
