Individual Ring Tones

hey, i was wondering if theres a way to assign individual ring tones to everyone in my contact list?
and, is there a way to change the alarm sounds to an mp3 or something?

1) yep, it´s possible, have a look in the manual......
2) the default alarm works with .wav if I´m not mistaken, if you want to use .mp3 you may have to look for 3rd party apps....

LOL good answer. i'll get to reading it! thanks alot

15-second Delay

For the third day with this phone, another problem arose.
There seems to be a 15-second delay receiving incoming calls. In other words, the caller would of went through at least 6 rings, before receiving my first ring on the Diamond. Am I missing something here?
-Johnny

are you using stock rom and radio? if you are FLASH!

Are you sure about 15 sec delay?? Most people complaining about 3 sec delay. There is a tweaks program you can use called Tweaks2k2. You can disable the 3sec ringtone delay. Im pretty sure if you install it on your device you can check the checkbox called ''disable 15s rintone delay''

or try this...

Btw, What filetype are you using for yr ringtone?
I tried the tweaks2k2 tweak, and it seem to reduce the delays BETWEEN rings.. not diminish the first 3sec delay.
I'm using wma. Ya think wav would be betta?

Isn't this the common problem using the HTC phone skin? If you disable that it's supposed to make the delay non-existent. You can do it in Schaps Advanced Config I understand.

Hi thanks what does this cab do, i mean the word loudest indiactes louder volume also?
Thanks

Thanks guys, I had got it down to 1 second now!
I installed the program and got it to come down to 4 seconds.
I converted my ringtone into a .wav format and moved it into the 'Ringtones' folder. No more 15-second delay!
-Johnny

I can confirm, after converting my ringtones to wav files and installing this patch, the 3 second delay is gone.
Working perfect !!!

Does anyone know exactly what this patch modifies so we can do it manually and track all the changes?
Or is it only the converted .wav files that is the big change?

I can also confirm that after you apply the patch and change the ringtone to .wav, the delay is gone!

@ Mask
I use mp3 files. When i call myself i took less than a second before ringing. Normally it takes 3 seconds. But i dont understand the 15sec delay..

text message custom tones?

hey all~
so this is my first post here, hope this is in the right thread (if not i apologize and ask the admins to plz move it?)
anyhows, i has a tytn2 (at&t tilt of course) its all upto date and all. i was wondering....i know i can set custom ring tones for contacts for when they call, is there any way (free way) to set custom tones for when somebody texts?

Ok, I think I got two questions out of that test. J/K
1. Edit: Sorry about that. I didn't read properly.
2. To assign notification sounds. Start>Settings>Personal>Sounds&Notifications>Notifications. Open the Event: drop down, find the event, Open the Ring tone: select the sound, turn on Play sound, finished.
Notification sounds reside in the \Windows\ root folder of the device. I like to put ring tones into the \Windows\Rings\ folder. They work in other folders but I find the Rings folder neater than the root for example and thats what the Rings folder is meant for anyway.
Hope that works for you.

U cant assign different ringtones for text messages to contacts. For that u will probably need some 3rd party application.

hey all~
hurm, okay well if i can't then does anyone know of any 3rd party app that can do it? i know pcm can NOT do it for text's (but they can for calls) . . .
thanks for the help guys and gals
~j

try mortring. you can personalize rings for calls and sms according to individual or category.
although it's been slightly buggy since i upgraded to 6.1, it still does the job well enough.

somynex~
thanks ill google it right now
~j

Try photo contacts. You can assign text tones to individuals on it

hey all~
so igrabed mortringand installedit buthad no luck with it working :-( so i guess ill look into that other suggested program....
like i said it's not a big deal, just something i would likes (it shouldn't surprise anyone as my screen name should imply i'm a linux guy [ubuntu is a linux distro.] and i love everythiing tweaked as much as possible lol)
~j

sorry to hear that mortring didn't work. in WM6 and before it seems to intercept the call and then change the ring.
But in WM6.1 it seems to have to change the ringtone for each contact/category according to the ring i set it to, which can take a long time. the first time after i set the rings, thought my phone froze up. but actually it was just taking its time setting the rings for each contact (and takes a long time when one has a lot of contacts/categories).
anyway after the first couple days of freezes, it seems to work fine now and hasn't froze up on me since.

somynex~
maybe i'll give it another go then....i tried with my brothers contact info. changed his txt tone then had him txt me....maybe i needed to let it sit for longer to 'finish the change' . . .
thanks for the extra info

No problem mate.

Here's a post of mine from almost 4 years ago that you can use with Mortring (free) to make custom notifications for your contacts.
Okay I figured out how to create a custom notification/ringer.
1: go to http://public.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php
And type in what you'd like for the notification or ring to say and then
download it after picking a voice. (keep in mind sometimes you have to purposely
misspell certain word to get them to be pronounced correctly. For example for DJ
I had to spell it as d j).
2: rename that file you downloaded into something you'd like.
3: move that .wav file to your devices /windows directory.
4: go to start - settings - sounds & notifications - notifications (select the
event you'd like to change the ring for and select the respectable audio file).
If using Mortring in step 4 assign that .wav for your contact(s).

dj~
wow thanks, from 4 years ago...kewl that u looked it up fo rme i appreciate it and will be off to create
~j

Of course.. then there's always Electricpocket Ringo. It lets u assign ringtones and sms tones individually, or to groups. The best I've used so far.

Free? I tried Ringo over a year ago and it slowed down my phone a lot.

hey all~
i got mortRing working! seems pretty good, works for sure. one thing though...it seems that everytime i get a text from someone whos got a personalized tone, that wmp opens to try to play the wav file (and go figure, wav=windows audio video...wmp says it can't play wavs lol)
i think i may have fixedn it with a registry tweak, have to wait till someone with a custom tone texts me back lol
~j

hey all~
ok so this question is probably for those who have or have used mortRing....everytime a custom notification comes my media player opens :s
i went in the registry and undid the default wmp handling of wav files (as the ringtones...err text tones lol that mortRing recognizes are wav's) but then it opened a dialouge saying it didn't know how to handle the wav file (nvm it played lol) ii changed the default to mort player but it still opens whenever one of the custom contacts text me....at least mort closes quicker then wmp...but still would be nice to get it to stop...
so any ideas? a registry hack (i'm comforatable doing that, even though im a linux guy i work on peoples win-slows computers....a LOT) anything?
thanks
~j

I have an older version of Mortring that doesn't have that problem.

DJ~
do you happen to know what version number you have? thanks

ring tones are continuous

hi
is possible to have the standard ringtone not continuous because when i select the standard ring (1,2,3,4)is without pause.
my rom android is:Mdeejay FroYo Sense Matted v.1.4 [Kernel: MDJ S6.1] on hd2
thanks

anyone know this problem?

I'm struggling to understand what you mean here mate?

when phone ringing(with standard ring 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 ) the sound is continuous.
it's possible change this!

Hi!
I have the same problem... anyone knows of a solution?
Ok, to be more specific...
When you select one of the standard ringtones 1, 2, 3 or 4... normally it should ring like this: riiiing, pause, riiiing, pause, riiing, pause... etc.
Right now mine is ringing like this: riiiing riiiiing riiiing riiiing ... its really annoying sometimes
Thanks in advance!

I am also getting this.. the pause bet rings is not long enough. I m not sure if this an HTC sense or andoid fix but I managed to fix it via a workaround by editing the ringtone itself. mine is an mp3 ringtone so I downloaded a freebie software for editing mp3 and added blank or silent sound at the end just to serve as a pause.

hi
yep... sounds like a great idea, i didnt think of that, thank you very much!
Lucky i`m only using one ringtone... i`ll check to see if the standard one is .mp3

normal ring ring tone
Hi
excuse my poor english
try this its very simple and it will work the way you want
all you have to do about the ringtone is to edit it with audacity application by adding a silence space after or before the selected ringtone with the length of tow seconds then save it to you desktop then coonect your device by usb cable and send the new ringtone to your device inside a folder you created earlier in sd card named ringtone choose the new rintone from sound settings as a default ringtone
good luck

Tiramislim 2.0 custom ringtones not working

Is there a patch or is there a way to repair it ? Tried with converting mp3 to .ogg ect ect... It just doesn't work. The ROM is awesome but this is annoying as hell.
Tried to use the rings extended and other apps but still nothing.
Please advice and cheers.

Same question yesterday, no answers till now.

I'm using my own ringtone on Tiramislim v2. I could choose it in the ringtone list in the sound settings.
What you can try is copy the file to: [\sdcard\media\audio\ringtones (or Notifications for SMS/Alarm/etc.) and see if it's in the list in the sound settings.
I also set a ringtone from poweramp with no problem.
Hope the above will work for you!

STILL NOTHING this is b*shi*
I managed to get a ringtone for any call, but not for my friends and family :/ I have a custom ringtone for my default call. But still I can't assign a different ringer to a different person... WTF?! On my last ROM - no problem. Different person - different ringer... This is bugging me... It's a small detail but men is it annoying...
