IPhone :: Assigned Individual Ringtones To My Contacts But Default Ringtone Keeps Ringing?
Jun 17, 2012
I assigned individual ringtones to my contacts in contact list but when they call, the default ringtone is ringing.Does anyone know how to fix it? I guess this situation accured after I erased everything on my iPhone and installed backup from my computer. I searched everywhere on internet but couldn't find anything, and then this idea came up; I deleted all the assigned rigntones, created a new backup on my computer then deleted all contacts and installed the backup but still when I assign a ringtone to a specific contact it's still ringing default ringtone when she calls.. Btw I also checked for duplication errors, there is only one for each contact..
The ringtones I have assigned to several of my contacts no longer work when the people call me. The tones are in my itunes and stored on the iphone, but will the only tone working for the contacts is the default tone. They worked fine until a few weeks ago, and I have done all sorts of trouble shooting but nothing has worked. Apple said the files for my custom tones were corrupt and I had to fix that which I did. However, even if I assign a regular tone i.e. Marimba, it still will not ring if the default is another tone.
I'm sorry to be such a novice, but I got a Droid 2 tonight and have never had a smartphone before. I have my own ringtones under my music widget, but when I go into a contact to assign a ringtone, my only choices are the stock ones. Can someone tell me how to use the choices under my music instead?
I recently got my new Motorola Razr HD (XT925) running JB ver 4.1.2 but can't for the life of me work out how to set music stored on my device as individual ring tones for different contacts.
This option just doesn't seem to exist on this phone model but i was running the XT915 and could choose individual music as ring tones from the set ring tone options.
it is possible to set default numbers in my phone for text messages and phone calls for individual contacts? I would like to set up the phone so it defaults to mobile phone numbers for text messages, so I don't accidentally try to send a text message to a landline.
I just got the 5230 Nuron from T-mobile.I have assigned specific ringtones to individuals but I'm not hearing those ringtones when those people call. I'm still just hearing my generic ringtone.Also when I call or receive a call from someone in my address book, it doesn't show that person's name - it just shows their number.Is there a way I can get the designated ringtones to work and a way I can see the name of the person that's calling me instead of just their number?
It doesnt work...... I assign a pic of the contact and a tone but when they ring me the pic shows but the tone is set to a default which is the nokia original tone and not even a tone ive chosen, ive updated the software and its still the same.

I know how to change the ringtones for individual contacts. My problem is some of them will not change from default. I am not trying to do anything drastic, and I have not rooted my phone. I am using the ringtones provided built into the phone.
I do not know how long this has been an issue. I just tried last night to change one contact's ringtone and it would not move from default. I went through my phone randomly picking contacts that were all listed as default. Some would change, others would not.
Just jumped back to Android after a decade of Windows phone (be patient) and I'm trying to change the ringtone for one of my contacts but when I find and edit their contact information the Ringtone ID is grey'd out and I can't edit it. What am I missing?
So I dug all through the settings and found Sound & Notification. When it went in there I found an option for Ringtone ID. What it does other than allows me to set ringtones for Contacts, Favorites or Everyone. When I disabled it I was then able to provide custom ringtones for my contacts.
Does anyone know how to access the individual ringtone sound files on a Nokia E7 running Symbian 3 - Belle? I'd like to download them off of the phone.
A couple of weeks ago I changed the default ringtone for my incoming text messages. It would work for some contacts but not others so I changed it on the individual contacts by going into their information. I have now tried changing it again but it does not work on one of my contacts. Text messages from other individuals work fine but the one I'm having problems with will only vibrate not ring. I've changed it in the default, I've changed it in their individual account info -- but nothing.
I always give my closest friends individual ringtones to separate them from all the other texts that I get. So I went to their contact info, added notification field and then changed their notification tone. But for some reason when they text me, they still come up as the default notification as like every other text does. Why can't I customize the text notifications by adding a different text notification to each of my contacts that I want a different notification tone for?
I've noticed that in hangouts, I've set an individual custom ringtone for someone, and every single time I reboot my phone, it resets that particular ringtone to the stock ringtone that I have set.
Alright, so I posted something similar before, but now it's an evolved issue. When my contacts call me, the specified ringtone works. When the same contacts SMS me, it only plays the default tone I've chosen, not their specified tone. I've turned off encryption for contacts.
I downloaded a few ringtones for my iPhone and as i tryed to drag them into the Ringtone folder, it wouldnt go.I started reserching and I read all about the .mr4 thing so I know that thing is its impossible to drag the file onto my desktop... Why does Apple have to make things so difficult.. Why issnt it possible to do the most logic thing, simply drag the file into the ringtone folder?i have had iPhones for years now, and everytime i want to do something that is so simple to do on anyother phone int he universe, it feels like getting a razor wire enima when i have to do it on apple productes. and its suppose to be so simple and everything, but a ringtone i have to drag out to my desktop and delete it from my itunes then rename the file format and add it back in?.in what world is that easy?.. on top of that, i cant even do it.
I purchased a new 8900 on ebay and received it today. I want to change the ringtone. When I try out more than 1 ringtone from the list it stops ringing. I have to pull the battery before it will ring again. The phone has version 5 software.
How can I find those default ringing tone in my phone and delete them? for example, at profiles> personalise> ringing tone there's a list of my sound track some are stored in memory card and some default (Chipper.aac, Diplex.aac..Etc) stored in phone memory. There is another mp4 file (freeheart.mp4) which I cannot find anywhere else except in the profile personalisation. Cannot be found in the file manager too.
I have set a standard ringtone via Profiles / General / Ringing Tone. The phone will not use this ringtone , so I went to Settings / General /Personalisation / Tones / ringing tone and if I make this tone same as Profiles then all my calls go to Voicemail. What am I doing wrong ?
Guys, I need your help. I'm facing some problem with my Nokia N97 Ringing Tones. I have set my Ringing Tones to my ideal tones but sometime the ringing tones does not ring in the ideal tones I selected. It become default Nokia Ringing Tones. Anybody can help me. Maybe NOKIA can answer.
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.
Samsung Rant (M540) on Boost, How in the word do I add mp3 ringtones, put them on my phone but cannot set as ringtone. I've researched this for days, maybe something about DRM? And if that freak of a moderator puts my post in a thread where it does not belong 1 more time, I'll pout. LOL But really now Stop putting everybodies post under wrong phones/problems, we will never receive help that way.
