Help Changing sounds?

A couple quick questions that Search didn't really do anything to resolve.

1. Is there any place I can change all the sounds that give that damned dripping noise?

2. Is there a way to change the key tones the phone dialer uses to actually sound like I'm dialing a phone instead of dripping? I want to know if I hit a 3 or a 6 without having to look at it.


The sounds area seems to have these options missing. I'm using Apex if it matters.



also, unrelated. Is there a way to set the phone to only make noise if I get a phone call between say 10PM and 6 AM, otherwise stay silent for texts, emails, Google Talk notifications, etc.? I picked up the docking station to use it to replace my 20 year old alarm clock...but I know I'll end up getting an email in the middle of the night that I don't care about, and my wife is going to elbow me in the ribs or face for it.

I really want to know this as well!!
 
You can turn off the sounds...Settings<Device<Sound<System<Keytones & Touch sounds and un-check the two boxes. Hope this helps.

You can use Ring Scheduler.

I used it to switch the phone into silent mode automatically when I had scheduled events, and turn sound back on when they were scheduled to finish.

EDIT: But it doesn't discriminate between voice calls and other notifications... it will be silent.
 
So, there is no way to natively change from the God-awful dripping to touch tone when dialing? Hell, I'd even settle for a rotary sound...
