[Q] Cycling Ringtones / Ringtone loop - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
Ok, quick question. I noticed the other day while waiting for my java class to "run" (haha see what I did there) and the guy across from me has what I think was a cry-phone. I heard his texts come in a few times and each time he had a different ringtone. (at least it seemed so.) It cycled through like 3 or 4 different ones before restarting the loop.
**Note I do NOT mean that the ringtone kept replaying, instead I mean it ran as.
ringtone A. (stop)..... (new text) Ringtone B. (stop).... (new text) ringtone C. (stop).... (new text) ringtone A. etc.
Is there a way to do this for the Epic?
Ex. One ringtone = "Hey!" (Navi) Second = "Listen!" (Navi again)
Thanks Guys

Yay! Zelda fan
I'm not sure but id look into it possibly an app that does it or a customization that his ROM has the ability of.

Are u sure that the phone is made to loop the ringtones as u say or could it just be that he has a different ringtone for let's say 3 ppl and the same 3 ppl would txt him in the same order lol?

[ROM]3.25.2011 Continuum Clean (In Progress)

Ok, so normally I hate placeholders, but I'd like to give you guys an update of where I am at. Once I am finished tweaking, I will release. The base rom is done, now the modding and tweaking needs to happen.
So far:
--------------
Deodexed, Debloated, Debinged, and mostly, detouchwizzed. Debinged...even in the framework. I think* all Bing traces are gone now.
Visual voice mail gone, voice mail button in dialer opens Google Voice.
Verizon Wireless carrier banner replaced with something....better.
MMS app will not longer do multi-part messages, but instead convert to MMS automatically once the 160 character mark is hit.
GPS tweaked.
Wow in one day of having the phone you have a rom halfway competed

Wow, I can't wait for this even though we have had bad experiences with place holders, I know this isn't the case lol..
I don't know how many times I'm going to say thank you, but here is another thanks!

along the lines of changes to the voicemail button.....it would be awesome if the ticker's voicemail icon could correspond to Google Voice...but I am sure that is a lot more involved than changing the button's link in the Dialer.
a similar desire exists for the sms icon to correspond to Handcent
I used titanium backup to remove the stock messaging app and that killed the ticker's SMS icon functionality....I saved the stock app to reinstall but that introduces a different problem....the ticker icon doesn't go away reliably after having read the text in Handcent.
maybe this thread wasn't intended for our wish list items.....if that is the case, I apologize.
thanks for your help to our little Continuum family!
thanks for the help here adryn! my wife has the continuum, and i got hers to load red recovery, and the other modded rom.
question on this rom you are building..will it have the bstats and fxpms scripts? are the ones for fascinate compatable with contunuum?
thanks...

It was all but abandoned. Glad to see some progression!
Also, I saw some news on 2.3 leaks for SGS phones, do you have any info on this adrynalyne? Like a I400 leak perhaps... /lookleft /lookright
Sweet! Looking forward to seeing where this may go!

curious (warning - n00b question) - would it be possible to make the GV VM connection optional for those of us who don't use GV?
Also, what do you mean by GPS tweaked? The only thing i've noticed about mine is when i'm out geocaching with c:geo or using google maps to navigate while walking, sometimes the compass seems to be off by 180 degrees. when driving, google nav seems fine - likely since it can figure out direction based on previous locations in the same way it figures speed, but i don't walk fast enough for it to figure out direction - especially when geocaching since i'm always stopping to look for the cache.
all told - that's pretty impressive that you knocked out so much stuff in the short time you have had the phone! Thanks for your help with this device!
Any chance you have cracked open the ticker, or at least made it more useful to people who don't use the stock apps (that is... EVERYONE)?
One suggestion i saw somewhere (probably here) really interested me - put the notification area in the ticker screen and make it big enough to fill it, so you dont' have to try and hook into their custom ticker app - just use the existing system one, only relocated/resized. that way all system notifications (no matter what app they're from) will be visible in the ticker, all the time, as well as the time of day, and apps won't have to be custom-written to take advantage of the ticker; they'd just WORK.
I just can't wait till it is out I am looking forward to it

shoot - as long as it doesn't affect anything else, i'd take that over the annoying, noisy crap vzw put on there. is the shutdown screen also black/silent?
I don't have the phone right here handy atm but, I've already downloaded the Rom and alt browser. looking forward to flashing it to my boy's phone! I know he'll be happy too. One thing I love about these Android phones is how they give us the ability to have that "new phone" feeling any time we like, thanks to their rich development community. This is one thing the Continuum crowd has missed out on until now.

Any .prop tweaks for ics that differ from previous sdks?

I know most of them already.. just wondering if they're any new ones..
And what's up with the ppl not being able to set ringtones on most 4.0+ roms music sets the ringtone for me.... its called long press the song you want and then set as ringtone... works for me

Maybe you could list the ones you know already as to avoid repetition.

Is it possible to change SMS vibration intensity?

Hey everyone, I have searched around and can't find anything on how to change the vibration intensity of the phone. If you know an app or way please let me know. Does anyone know if the vibration voltage level is in the build prop?

Although I don't know how to do exactly as you want, there's a workaround that's even better.
Download SMS Popup free from the market. You can set this to notify you of an SMS instead of the HTC app notifying you. (make sure you disable the HTC app from notifying you too.)
With SMS Popup you can choose the vibration signature or 'tune', so you can have whatever short and long SMS vibrations you want. The app does far more, such as letting you have a popup of the SMS over whatever current app or screen you're in; and doing a vibration reminder every x minutes until you check the txt.

Try Ringo Pro - you can choose from 5 different intensities of vibration, passing through "frenzied", and up to "relentless"
Try the free version, you may just be able to set up your phone without needing to buy the Pro version (unless you want to, of course)
instead of all the Cm7 rom offer You This Option If You Use CM than its ur lucky day
Or use Go SMS Pro or Handsent, that allows for custom vibration sequences

What ringtone are you using?

Sorry if this has been posted before, I couldn't find a similar thread.
What ringtone are you using? How do you choose them, by what criteria?
I choose simple quiet tones because I don't want to startle when it starts ringing unexpectedly. I also use only instrumentals, I don't like vocals (probably a habit from the past, when phones didn't sing but ring).
Here's mine
Silent Hill Theme.
This one:
Just default cyantone and cyanmessage from cm9
Sent from my GT-S5660
Usually I have my phone on vibrate, I don't even know what ringtone i have.
here's mine, the song from Game of Thrones, It's awesome for a ringtone or wake up tone.
Standard I'm using F1 Ferrari sound from Zedge.
When the wife is calling, Darth Vader saying: The Dark Side Of The Force is Calling You
Crazy Dream!!!
Love it so much!!!
Inviato dal mio GT-S5660 con XDA PREMIUM
My Ringtone: Mike Oldfield - Harbinger
Message Sound: Regulus (from Cyanogenmod)
I like Curve Ball Blend
this one: MegaMan 3 - Stage Select (Doni's Chillout Remix)
yellow angry birds for notification, and for phone i'm using the old nokia sound, it's makes my friends were confused
This as ringtone and cyanmessage for sms
It changes every now and then in my case. I've been customizing my own ringtones for the last four years.
Usually instrumental. Sometimes video game related. Often electronic or pop music. I'll sample the loops myself most of the time.
Right now its the instrumental Family Guy theme.
In the past I've used songs from:
LMFAO, Black Eyed Peas, Prodigy, Edward Maya, Daft Punk.
Other mentionables: the presidential hotline from Our Man Flint, the theme for One Must Fall 2097, Trololo, and the Itchy and Scratchy Show theme.
I have also recorded/copied over ringtones from my previous cellphones (Samsung SCH-n370, SCH-m510 and SGH-T746. The fact all my phones have been Samsung is more coincidence than anything.)
Some notifications I use:
-the Starcraft 1 Probe ready sound for SMS from my girlfriend.
-one work colleague has the Road Runner "Meep Meep" assigned.
-the horns from the show Kaamelott for e-mails (previous)
Alarms:
-the Duke Nukem 3D theme "Grabbag"
-Kid Cudi - Day N Nite (Crookers Remix)

This is good as ringtone. I downloaded it to my phone incase I get tired of my current ringtone, then I will try this.
At the moment for ringtone I use http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idSBO-HPAeQhttp://
Default CyanTone (CM9) for ringtones and Procyon for notification.
I use default one, ring ring, hehe.
Made myself a full Super Mario theme with desktop, sounds and music..

I Want To Hear Touch Tone Dialing

It's probably a patent issue, but is there a way to hear the standard touch tones when dialing? I'd like to at least have a beep instead of that bubble noise when I dial a number.

Use a third party dialer such as exDialer from the PlayStore.

:good:
I downloaded it and it is what should have been stock. The ability to hear the standard tones is only the beginning. I have missed the ability to simply start out in the dialer and not whatever was used last. The calls I make are on the speed dial. I'll try it out. But I think I'm going to keep it.
So, why is the flagship phone of Samsung using a drip sound for the keys? It seems that it is a standard of the industry. The patent for the tones must have run out 40 years ago.
Anyone got an answer?

I don't think it's patent related. Only reason I can think of is because Samsung designed the S3 with a nature theme in mind, the water drip sounds are all over the place: the lockscreen, touch sounds, dialer.
