Different ringtones for different contacts

Is it possible to assign a seperate ringtone for certain contacts? I have trawled through the user manual trying to find anything at on this but it shows nothing. I dont know whether this would require additional software to be installed or not so am looking for any pointers on this. I have tried to search on this subject but each time the results that come back are totally varied and dont mention this issue. Any help much appreciated

if you dont want extra software:
in the contact details, there is a field under mobile tel that says ringtone.
sadly you cant mute or set to vibrate only
but i think there is a prog (iirc phonealarm? someone verify on this please) that will do exactly that.

Yes. Phone alarm will do that. Doesn't do black list yet, but can also do separate tones for contacts SMS's..
Other alternatives....... Photo Contacts Pro (PocketX). Smartfilter Pro (Novosec),
But, as mentioned above, you can assign ringtones to specific contacts.

Hi Toufas, tha's exactly what I was looking for. Many thanks, if thats in the user guide, I must need better specs

i assigned specific ringtones to some of my contacts but its this morning did i realize that the default ringtone still applies whenever those people call.
i have a 6.1 rom. do you guys think this is the problem??

I can recommend Ringo. You can set ringtones to your categories if syncing with outlook, set up specific message tones and customise with your own mp3, wavs etc...

So does "Ringo" or any similar software allow us to create a category of contacts (personal, business) and assign each category a ringtone?
Also, I have recently switched to PocketPCs. I have a Tilt phone running 6.1 cooked ROM. I should say, Nokia phones give a much better profile and call management options than these phones, hands down! Nokia gave me a silent button I could use to mute the ringtone but let the call continue. This is very helpful in case you forgot to switch it to silent and the phone suddenly ring. You don't always have to ignore the call. Can HTC Tilt do something like this?
Also, one more thing I miss is the vibrate + distinct beep sound Nokia phones have. That beep is heard even when you are considerably away from the phone, very nice sound. So I want to create a vibrate profile on HTC Tilt with a sharp beep sound. Can this be done?
Sorry for so many questions in this thread, but simply did not want to create a new one.

My TyTN II used to have a Silence button when I was running Garmin's DK.3 rom... I do not know about his new roms, but since I've started running AthineOS, I have lost the silence button... dont know yet if I personally miss it, but it means that it does exist...

Phone call recording for TP

Hi all,
After a lot of lost time trying to record my calls I said maybe someone already know the answer.
I have installed on TP: ROMeOS 1.70.3 and RADIO 1.02.25.28...very happy with them. I checked the post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=457808&page=1 and I installed on my TP next programs for call recording:
- ICR, made by HTC. Works, but, like the next programs, doesn't record the voice of the other person (only your voice)
- VITO Audio Notes 4.51. The same like ICR (only your voice) but i like it more as he can automatic record the call. You just have to select that on menu . Also he write file name with the name of the contact that you talked, the date and hour
- Resco Audio Recorder 1.37. Same like Vito, but the file name is different and i didn't know how to make it right for me
I changed the RADIO (i thought can change something) to version 1.08.25.20M1, but no change: I can only record my voice.... I know, if i set up "Speakerphone" option i will have both, but this is not the normal way meaning this will activate the speakerphone and everyone will hear your conversation and the recording is using only the microphone anyway...
Any ideea?
P.S. If you want i can post the soft above

I would post this in the ROMEOS thread for your version. Someone there is much more likely to help you. Plus, you don't want to get yelled at by the mods for starting a new thread when it should have been posted somewhere else.

Voice Recorder for X1

Is there Voice Recorder Software for Xperia?
If yes, where can i download the best voice recorder software?

http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/audiorecorder/

Did YOU try that yourself? They do certainly NOT list the X1 as compatible, or any HTC phone respectively.
I already tried another program, forgot the name, something like call recorder... but of course, did NOT work with X1.

this one partly works...
..but you can almost only hear yourself in the recordings. So it's sadly only recording the mic on it's own side.

yeah plane voice recording should be the same on all pocketpc's as
mic input is handled the same way
but recording phone conversations is another matter
it's rare that apps supported devices mean anything
unless it's software which use special features like camera or gps or
the likes
in most cases pocketpc apps is like pc apps and works on all pocketpc's

Might be true in some cases, but don't you think that if a phone would be REALLY supported, the seller would state that???!!!! Its called marketing.
So if some software works on some phones that are not stated as supported, is coincidence or plain luck on the side of the user.
One can only get back to the seller with a complaint or support question when that phone is listed. Else, out of luck

I've got Resco on my X1 right now. have used it to record lots of notes etc.
As well as used it to listen to audio books (It has a book mark feature)
I haven't tried it to record a phone call yet, will try it tomorrow when i get time

Sounds good, kindly DO report. Greetings!

"but don't you think that if a phone would be REALLY supported, the seller would state that???!!!!"
lol
do you realise how many pocketpc have been released since ms started using arm platform 90% of software works on all of them
the seller would be hard pressed to list them all or even know all of their names
you can compare it with a computer game listing
dell p3 blabla compaq p4 blba bla hp laptop tx acer........

Yeah, makes sense.... why would Resco or MS give a rats behind if a SONYERICSSON Brand and X1 (one of the most expensive phones on the market) would be listed and those users entised to get that.

Does this work for the X1 for recording calls well?

I installed the thing, but sorry to say it only recorded my voice !

FM Recording on Xperia X1

Hi all,
I have searched the forums, and tried a few apps and I haven't been able to find a solution to this - I was wondering if anyone else has or would want a way.
I like to listen to the radio to hear up to the minute local news, interesting local programming, some good new music and regular local humorous/comedy programs. And sometimes while listening to these I may get interrupted or may hear something I'd really like to share or refer to later - so in the past I'd just click the 'Record' switch on my MP3 player and then replay whatever I missed/saved later. Sometimes I also hear a good song and I'll record a few seconds to get enough of the lyrics to Google it later.
Knowing the X1 had an FM radio and WM6 I figured there must be an app out there to do this, the Samsung Omnia 2 apparently has this feature out of the box. I know some phones have the FM radio direct connected to the headphones/speakers, but I also know on the X1 has RDS and people have even found ways to use it as a TMC receiver on this forum. So I'm hoping there might be a way to record from FM - nothing fancy, not the full schedulers of the Chinese clone phones, but just some app that might at least let us hit a button and record a few minutes would be awesome.
Does anyone know how or if this can be done on the Xperia?
Thanks a lot,
Peter

Yes, I've checked many different programs and most that say they do record are actually Internet Radio stations and not FM. Actually when I clicked your link the first many results were already purple from when I searched it last week before posting.
One interesting thing I just came across is that Apple announced last week that their new iPod Nano will have 'Live Pause' functionality on it's FM tuner. That would be dream functionality for me, especially if it also included an actual recorder function to share the content later (which I doubt). But I really, really don't like Apple - and my X1 has let me leave my pocket digi cam, PDA, mp3 player and old phones at home and do it all with one device. It would be awesome if it could also record, even if rudimentarily.
99% of results you get with this search is either people who posted asking and were ignored, Internet Radio apps, info on clone phones or mp3 players or Call/Video recording software.
Thanks for your reply,
Peter

i used to have an ATOM exec that FM record function
go to their sub forum and see if you can get someone to make you a cab of their application. it might work
after this is done the next step would be is just to create a calander reminder to remind you to record

Thanks man, I'll do that . I'm ok with not having a scheduler attached, though it'd be nice. I'd really like to have the ability to hit a button and record though because sometimes there's some useful stuff on.
For example today they had a financial analyst on talking about GICs vs. Stocks vs. Bonds, etc..., and giving advice to someone on a situation almost identical to mine and he made some interesting points I wanted to remember to research further - luckily I was at home and had an old mp3 player that could record, but if I was out I'd just have to try to memorize it and probably end up just with confused recollections if I even remembered it at all. Missed a lot in the time it took to find the player though - just starting it from the Xperia - that would be awesome .
Thanks,
Peter

By the way, The Grizz, would it be the same application you were asking about in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493868&highlight=fm+recording or would it be something specific to the Atom Exec?
Thanks,
Peter
P.S. I see you were on the quest too man - good to know I'm not alone - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493761 - I did find the HTC/Diamond FM Radio App, which seems to work faster than the one with the X1 natively, but no recording, still looking around... Atom app seems to have scheduler, everything - would be awesome if we can just get this thing ported

I spent a couple of fruitless hours trying to find and fm_radio.cab or similar file for the Atom Exec - no luck, though a Chinese board seemed like it might have it, the page gives an error in Chinese when I tried to read it - either that the post doesn't exist anymore or you have to register or some such thing.
I found a couple of other FM apps that work, mostly for the HTC Touch HD and similar devices. I found about 3 others that don't work, giving various error messages about missing files or the Radio failing to power on.
I eventually searched for fmradio.exe and found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=284477
A lucky hit - "From O2 Xda Atom Exec..." - fmradio.exe + some dlls. I tried this on my X1 though and unfortunately I just get the message: "FM Radio requires Stereo Headset to be connected to function." I do have my headphones plugged in though. No idea if there is some way to get the app to bypass this check to see if the rest of it will run. It may also have something to do with where the dlls are - I just put all the files in my main Windows directory - no idea if they should be somewhere else, or if I should leave my original files as well. My X1 Radio is broken possibly from my previous 7 other apps tried - so this app might work if tried with a fresh flash.
So close

No luck, I flashed on WinMo 6.5 and then back to WinMo 6.1 with Jack's ROM - but I can't seem to get the O2 Xda Atom Exec FM Radio app to run. It just says that there is no headphone in the port. Is there a way around that or could I be missing some files? Or maybe I put them in the wrong path?
This is only one way to attack the problem - any other suggestions or ideas would be good as well.
Thanks,
Peter

A friend of mine lent me his Omnia, which can record with a click. I got all the files, but unfortunately it just gives an error that it is missing files or a trust certificate. I found the fmradio.dl file was hidden in the \Windows directory.
I found some other fmradio.dll files online for various Omnia models, but still no luck with those. It may be that they are not the right file for this program, or they are incompatible with the hardware. It's too bad I can't at least run the program, and then find the FM doesn't work. That would feel more satisfying then it not working at all.
So, so far no luck. Unless the creators of Power Radio here on the XDA forum do infact add FM Recording to their application...or we find another way?

Has anyone been able to find a way to do this on the X1? Or maybe perhaps the circuitry or software is different and it is possible on the newer X2 hardware?
Thanks!

I'm thinking, if it were possible, there would be an app for it. It's probably a hardware limitation of the X1 just like call recording. The output of the radio may not even pass through the CPU/chipset and goes straight to an output.

[Q] Does the GNote support AVRCP 1.3+ ?

It is all in the title, wondering if the GNote supports AVRCP 1.3 or 1.4 or not yet.
I know that BlueZ BT now supports it.

a small bump maybe

It seems,, according to official specs page, YEP it support AVRCP 1.3...

Oh thanks ! i had missed that !
If this is true that my MW600 should be able to display the name of the caller not only the caller Number (as well as the track name)
Can't wait to test that.

Please do post the test result.
I am planning to get mw600.

will receive my Note by the end of the week will test and get back to you (unless another member chimes in before that )

The built in player shows the track name. However I only see the incoming phone no on the receiver.
The audio sounds better with Samsung player compared to third party ones. But the Samsung player disregards track numbers in metadata.
The battery life for the receiver is good but if you don't already have it and thinking to get one, consider the following drawbacks:
volume level control is terrible.
Call button is also not placed in a proper location so you press it easily by mistake.
Also audio quality is nothing to write home about.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA App

Got my note today, in my opinion mw600 works great with it.
Although I do agree.about the audio rocker for me the sound ha very good

can anyone put a light on any bt headset which shows caller names instead of numbers? for note

It does not shows the Caller name just shows the Caller number

I think it's not the Galaxy Note but Android. As far as I know Android doesn't support AVRCP 1.3 (that's why you don't see caller ID, only number).
