Motorola Atrix 2 :: Why Can't Have A Ringtone As A Song
Dec 3, 2011
Why do I only have the option to chose a Motorola installed ringtone?I'd really like to use an iTunes song, or download one and add onto the phone.... How do I do this? Or is this not allowed?
I'm really enjoying my spiffy new Raxr MAXX HD. Coming from the first LTE phone I'm especially enjoying not carrying spare batteries and popping the back off my phone every few hours. I'm in the process of personalizing my phone and I can't figure out how to assign a song as a ringtone.
I have a song from my music library set as my ringtone and as far as just using it when it turns on it works fine. But if at any point I go to play other music in my music library, it turns into a generic alert tone, until I power my phone off and back on. I figure if I could stop the music in my library instead of just pause it that would work, but I see no way to do that.
Currently, I am using WMP 12 (WIn 7 Prof) to sync my music library to Atrix 2 using Windows Media Sync option under USB connections. When I add any new songs to my library and then sync, the new song is added to my phone. However, when I delete a song from my library (and computer), that song won't get deleted from my phone after sync. I can manually delete songs on phone from WMP but I would like if I don't have to keep track if the sync works correctly.
I've got a very strange problem. When I try to set a contact as a favorite by pressing the star it flashes a couple of times and then goes out. When I go to the favorites tab a different contact is now the favorite. No matter which contact I try to make a favorite only that one contact becomes a favorite. The same goes for ringtones. If I try to set a ringtone for a contact it remains the default ringtone and the same contact that always gets flagged as a favorite gets assigned the ringtone. I have tried refreshing my phone and starting over to no avail. This used to work even after upgrading to GB.
I've got the atrix on t-mobile contract but cannot figure out how to set a custom ringtone for the SMS? I've got the custom one for the phone call. But the text message one has me baffled? I select text message >menu setting > messaging settings > select ringtone. But it doesn't offer the option to select a custom one.I've tried putting an mp3/m4a track in the notification folder by connecting the phone to a usb cable and pc, but the tracks dont show up in the select ringtone setting?
I've had an Atrix2 since Mid-Nov.2011, and have really had no problems with it so far except a couple apps freezing and having to reboot the phone. But just recently, when I have had to reboot the phone (y'know just cuz u need to reboot a computer sometimes to make it work better) the ringtones I have set as the main ringtone and the notification sounds get reset to random mp3 songs I have downloaded on the phone. It's a different one every time this has happened, too. It doesn't even reset to the AT&T tone that it came with. I have two apps that may affect it. "Zedge Ringtones" and "MP3 Ringtone Maker." This also happened the other day but didn't notice it till my alarm went off to wake up in the AM. The audio for THAT was not was previously set. So, I really don't know HOW this is happening. I do have an aftermarket alarm app called "Alarm Clock Plus." (I have a separate issue with the factory alarm app for another thread)
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.
Everytime I plug my Atrix4 into my computer or plug into the wall the screen lights up, and the notification ringtone goes off is there away of stopping this without shutting off my ringtone or message ringtone. Have been in every menu I can think of...
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.
find the way to set a song that I love as fun ringtone for my iphone, I mean when people phone me they will hear this song. I am in Canada and I am using Sasktel service.
how do i put a song as a ringtone,ive downloaded it from itunes, also added a app where ive recorded my own recording of it and have downloaded it onto computer but please how do i put it as a ringtone on my iphone 3g
How can I make a song from my playlist a ringtone? I can not figure it out on my 4s. It seems that I remember it being really easy on an older iphone. But it has been so long I cant recall how to do it. Did they make it where you now have to buy the song as a ringtone as well?
