Is it possible to assign a special ringtone to unknown numbers? I don't answer those numbers and would like a special ringtone for them. Or can they be forwarded to voice mail automatically?
Thanks

I suppose you could painstakingly assign every contact in your phone one ringtone and set a different ringtone as your default ringtone.
Not sure of any quick fixes off the top of my head. Perhaps there's an app that manages your contacts by groups and allows you to set a group ringtone. If there is that might be faster.

Possibly a silly question, but how do you set an MP3 as a ringtone to a specific person?
there is an option in the contacts set ring tone, if you have not found it yet.
the mp3 may have to be in the correct directory (\media\audio\ringtones)
I went to edit the contact in question but couldn't find the option for ringtone. I'm sure it's there somewhere I just can't find it!!
Anyone?
Select People, then select any contact, then scroll down the list where it says number, send message, send mail.
Under Information there is ringtone option.
Sorry for a noob question.
I can assign a custom ringtone from /sdcard/media/ringtones/ to any contact (Google contacts) and I see that contact has a custom ringtone assigned but when a contact with a custom ringtone calls me - it' still plays a default ringtone which I set in "Settings". Why is it so?

Bump-bump...
I found some posts in google groups discussing the same problem for different phones/firmwares. Solutions are: align phone numbers in contacts to be the same as it shown during incoming call: no "(", spaces between digits, etc. I tested different variants - no luck, it recognizes the person who calling me, shows correct name and photo, a phone number for incomuing is exactly the same as it written in contacts, but ringtone is not custom but default anyway. I changed custom MP3s to predefined ringtons - still the same, default ringtone for all incoming calls.
Does anybody here have the same problem? Or, at least, could You suggest me another application instead of standart "People"?
Upd: Fixed. A solution was simple but efficient - the phone should be rebooted after importing of contacts and setting custom ringtones.
you can also go to music and selecting the song then menu - ringtone for contact
Anyone know if there is an app or way to assign a ringtone to a prefix? ie: I'd like to have a different ringtone when someone from my company calls from 212-555-xxxx.
Hi,
I changed the ringtone of one of my friends to a different one (in contacts settings). I was under the impression that this only changes the RINGtone (when the contact calls me). However, it also changed the notification sound of WhatsApp for example for this particular contact.
As you can only choose Ringtones in the menu, I now get an annoying ringtone everytime the contact sends me a message.
I also can't revert the changes as I can't find "Default" in the menu.
Has anyone an idea how to fix this (at least get the default settings back)?
Edit: Omg it was in whatsapp itswlf. Can be clo
Here's the deal, I have a Viper Smartstart app on my phone. Everything works well, but I wanted to specify
a specific ringtone for my alarm alerts on my phone. The problem is that there is no specific telephone number that the sms is coming from. Rather than a number it says [email protected] in the number field. Because of this, the alert sounds are the same as all my other sms that come through. I wanted to have a siren sound for the smartstart.
I tried to save the contact and assign the alert but it didnt work. Any suggestions for settings or apps?
