BB Bold :: How To "wake Up" And Play Specific Ringtone
Sep 18, 2012
I have a situation where I am on call and receive an email when a high priority call is assigned to me. I turn off notifications at night as i dont want alerts for emails coming in whilst I am asleep. Is it possible to set up a rule where that if an email is received with a partocular keyword(s) in the email subject line, that my device will wake up and ring with a customised ring tone, so I know this is a high pritority email?
This is probably a n00b question, but is there any way to assign a specific ringtone to a specific contact? I just switched from an LG Lotus, where I was able to give each contact a specific ringtone. I'd love to be able to do that with my Style..
With other BB's, I was able to assign a different ringtone to each of my contacts. I cannot figure out how to do that with the 9650 I just received from work.
Basically, I want one ringtone for all calls except for the contacts where I have assigned a different ringtone for them.
I have just gone from Sony Ericsson C902 to Sony Ericsson Xperia X8. On the C902 I was able to assign different ringtones to different contacts, but on the Xperia X8 I don't seem to be able to do this. Kath
I have an app that I don't want to be auto updated, but I want the others to keep being auto updated. In the meanwhile, I turned off auto update entirely but it's a huge inconvenience having to update all the apps manually. Is there a way to keep a specific app from getting auto updated and still keep the auto update on?
picked up my S6 earlier this week ..... loving it by the way... how to set a track from play music as my ring tone. I managed to do it on my s4 but can't figure out how to do it on the S6 ..
Can't get my iphone 4s to play ringtone through car speakers when connected to Bluetooth car kit unless i toggle silent switch on side. How do i get it to work without toggling switch?
Sometimes the ringtone I have set for the profiles does not play when a caller rings me. I have set the rintone as the same for all profiles (Classic phone), and sometimes that ringtone plays, but not always for every contact. Sometimes the phone plays 'Spirit' instead, and I have noticed that if I edit any of my contacts (that have not had a special ringtone given to it), the ringtone is 'Spirit', so what should a contact show in the ringtone selection part, if no special ringtone has been selected by me.
I set my wife's contact with a custom ringtone. Sometimes when she calls, the phone plays the custom ringtone. Sometimes she calls, and it plays the default ringtone.
I check the settings, and the custom tone is still set correctly. And the ringtone is on the phone, not on the memory card.
Today I noticed that when this happened, the phone started ringing the default tone while her cell number appeared on the screen, before the phone detected it was the contact with her name. Could it be that the phone delayed recognizing her number as being on the contact list, and therefore played the default tone?
I believe this happened after I upgraded the phone to the latest version. At first I did not have i ringtone at all, but after I fixed that the phone only plays the original tone. I have the same problem with the message tone. I even tried to put a specific tone to a specific contact. No difference
Here is a screenshot of the sound options where you can see that I have changed the ringtone to "Trap Android" and the message tone to "Ping":
When I try to play a song in my bb it keeps on telling me that I can't play that song! and I don't know why! And every time I am changing my profile to medium from the silent mode it doesn't play my ringtone. It doesn't play any sound at all!
On my HTC EVO I could set notification sounds by application. For text messages I had one tone but none for email. On the Photon I have the same tone setup for text messages coming in through Handcent but it also plays for email coming into the native email client which I do not want. Is there anyway to ether turn it off or select a different ring tone for emails?
Also what is the over/under for Motorola getting tired of hearing "I could do it on my HTC..."
When you make a call sometimes it just plays your ringtone? I have had this issue on and off since I bought my Atrix 2 in February but it seems to be getting worse. When I click on the person I want to call it brings it up like it is going to call them but instead of ringing them it just plays the ringtone. It even plays the special ringtone if I have assigned the person one on my phone but it never actually calls them. The only way I can make calls again once it starts is to power off the phone and power it back on.
Why the world's most powerful phone can not play my ringtones in my bluetooth headset? My crusty old razor could do it. Perfectly every time. No computer degree required.
This does not happen every time, but it does happen at least once a day.On incoming calls, my ring tone will not play, instead I hear the person on the other end of the phone waiting for me to answer!! They can not hear me though, but I can hear them either saying hey pick up the phone, coughing, drinking water, what ever you do on the phone before the person answers.
So Verizon has never heard of this before and I can't force a duplication of it when people are watching of course.Anyone heard of this and know what to do? I was hoping upgrading to 5.0 OS would fix and I am looking for that now.
Why when i have my headphones in the text message sound as well as incoming call ringtone play thru the speaker on the phone opposed to the headphones?
yet the key sounds when typing play through headphones, as well as the little man who politely reads a new message?
I keep receiving between 2 to3 SMS's per day from a user just identified by a number (namely, 70371). The messages contain a URL address. These 50 to 70 messages per month serve no purpose but to increase my phone bill. I have asked my carrier (Movistar), who has told me there is no way to block the sender (obviously: my carrier is happy with the fact that 10% of my phone bill comes from these SMS messages). Any way to block a specific sender?
I have the Blackberry Bold 9700, I have an automated phone number that calls me everyday, and when I answer it is only music. When I call back, it says "Voice mailbox is full".How do I block this number from calling me? AT&T is my service provider, but they referred me to Blackberry.
There are some persons calling who I want to block. I had some phones which had a blacklist for such numbers but I can't find something like that on my blackberry. There it was so that the person automatically got a busy signal when they called me and I don't need to push the red ring-off-key. Is there something on blackberry too??
installed latest bb desktop software on pc,when syncing my calendar, I set bb to sync with a specific e mail address, why does it always defalt to FACEBOOK calendar and not sync my bb calendar to pc??
I just ran the latest updates and having all sorts of issues. battery life very poor and it won't wake up from standby/ sleep mode. Looks like there might be more bugs in this latest update. I had issues before with the email setup application which resulted in a replacement handset! I have to keep pulling the battery to reset it!!!
After one week, I think I got my Bold under control, but something still bothers me:I have my calendar set up to display my agenda when I open it. When I want to enter a new event, I open the menu, navigate to Go to date, click on it, the slider with day, month, date, year appears, I set to the date I want to go to and press the pad. It takes me NOT to the date I chose, but to the closest date with an event on it.
Is it because I have it set to display agenda? I"m I using a wong command sequence? Is this program dumb?
I recently upgraded from Bold 9000 to a 9700. Never had problems with syncs. On first synq with new one, I had no probs either, however two days ago I started receiving this message: Connector Specific Error.
