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.

Does individual contact ringtones work on Mogul?

I was able to get individual ringtones to work on the Kjam wm5 but I am unable to do so on the Mogul. I go to contacts, edit, ringtone, and then select the ringtone. The ringtone then plays until the end of the ringtone with no way to get it to quit.
I have tried several ringtones but when i reopen the contact no ringtone is selected.
Is this a wm 6 issue or is there another way to select the individual contact ringtones?
Has anyone got it to work and if so how?

Assigning different ringtones

I was wondering if anyone knows if the TP2 had the capabilities to have a different ringtone for each person so that when they call AND text it is the same ringtone for that specific contact, instead of defaulting back to the main ringtone for texts. I have tried searching for this on google but I have only found solutions for this problem if I have a blackberry. For example, I would like Song A to play for Person A when they text AND call. I would like Song B to play for Person B when they text AND call. Right now all it will do is to play Song A when Person A calls and Song B when Person B calls. When either Person A or B texts me, it will play Song C. Is there something I am missing on what to do to fix this? Is there a setting I can change or is there a hack that I can use? Any help is appreciated.
PhoneAlarm lets you assign custom tones based on email or SMS subject & sender.
(I'm starting to feel like a shill for PA, but it is the only thing I have to contribute at this point.)
There is no "built-in" method for setting per-person Text ringers. (I used to have this feature on VzW's "The V" a few years back, and haven't seen it built-into a phone since).
As the other poster mentions, there are various applications that can be installed after-the-fact to provide this feature for each contact for text messages.
Definitely need to try PhoneAlarm myself... hadn't seen that one yet.

Custom ringtones for contacts

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?
P.S. HTC Desire, Vodafone.nl, Android 2.1-update1(1.19.161.5)
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

Assign special ringtone to 'unknown' numbers?

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.

Email/SMS Alert for a specific Contact App?

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?
