I have just got my XDA Orbit from O2 UK.
For some reason the option to assign specific ringtones to each contact is missing ?? Does anyone know if this is usual ?
Pete
Hi
Tap contacts and select the contact you wish to assign a ring tone too
Tap Menu - Edit
The 12th row down says ring tone - i'll let you figure the rest out

Ok, I have just figured out what's wrong. The contacts copied from my sim card only contain name & number.
When I add a new contact the ringtone option is there. What I have now done is copy all contacts to new records - now I can customise as needed.
Thanks
Pete
cool - i didn't relaise I could do this

My Ringo won't work with Black 2.5 and I've go Profiles for Window Mobile 2.2.0
a little help pls
I was about to post the same. Here Ringo didn't work with the Black 2.5. In the "groups", just vibrate the phone, in the default, when the contact are out of the list, they rings with the windows default song.
Rickyjune, the Profiles for Windows Mobile 2.2.0 have groups for ringing tones? I didn't find it.
Any other program, that works on the WM6, for different rings and sms tones, to different categories?

Gerald_s, thanks, but i'm looking for something smaller. Something pratical. PCP is to heavy to do a little like play songs to some people. BUT, if have no other way...
What's really nice about WM6 is that most of the function of Ringo is in the OS. I no longer use Ringo for that reason (well, it also crashed a lot).
I don't know if you can set ringers by category (I'd imagine so, but haven't looked into it yet), but you can assign them to people. Just edit a contact, and down towards the bottom is a field for Ringtone.

Mcrochip, thanks. I look at that, but when you have a lot of contacts, assign a ringtone one-to-one is hard... But, its native, i'll look MORE on that function.
thats true... but you cannot select SMS ringtone or Call ringtone... only one ringtone for each contact... not very customizable..
SMS tones
I still cannot a small software just to assign sms tomes beside Photo contacts pro. Anyone can help..Thanks

Start - Settings - Sounds - New E-Mail - Choose a tone - Hit DONE
I have recently upgraded to WM6.1 (kavanna's) and i have put the rinku iconbar on it and the weather sliding panels, kinoma freeplayer and all teh other prgrams that i have seen that work well. Love the ROM, great work to all, but i just have one question.
How do i get pictures and ringtones for my contacts because right now all i have is the number and name listed and i don't have an option for selecting a ringtone or assinging a picture to them. I have been searching throught the threads for 2 days and the most i can find is little info about a program called RINGO and photo...somethin pro and there wasn't much postive feedback about either.
Please help
Thanks
6.1 same as 6
start - contacts - edit
custom ringtones will need to be on main memory if I'm not mistaken
scroll down to select pics or set custom ringtone

Custom ringtones can also be on the root of storage card.
The contact you wish to add these too has to be in the phone mem not sim
You probably don't see the options for pictures and ringtones because the contacts are stord on the SIM. Move them to the phone memory and it will open up those options.
thanks i had them all on my sim card didn't realize i had to move them back to access those options Thanks again

yea took me a while to figure that too but now that i've found it i don't let those free phone getters laugh at me cuz i can't see the pic of whos calling me. lol
does anyone know the folder structure for making sure, if i store sounds on the storage card, that any alerts are purely for short sounds, and custom rintones selects a folder full of just my ringtones?
meaning:
Custom Ringtones -------> ring tone only folder on storage card
Custom Alerts ------> short sounds only folder on storage card
??? i thought i had it right but my custom ringtones options (all ringtones on the storage card are stored under storage card/my ringtones) ALWAYS brings up all my short sounds too (which are stored in storagecard/my documents).
all my alerts options bring up short sounds only.
Is it possible to change the ringtone for an SMS message?
Here you go!
Yes go to settings tab and click all settings, look under sounds and notifications.
Click on noitifications and select New text messagesfrom top drop down box. Make sure ringtones are on root directory of sdcard. Click the drop down box above play and your ringtone should be in box
there you should be good
Thankyou
Thankyou it works
Glad to help
If by 'change the ringtone' you want to change it to one of the default supplied ones, do as above. If you want a customised .mp3 one, then you need to copy/paste the required ringtone in the Windows folder of the phone, otherwise it will not show up in the list.
or do a search for a program called electric ringo, that allows you to set mp3 for sms tones as well
Can I customize message tone for a contact in HOX?
