Any decent profile apps? - Android Apps and Games

Just getting used to using Android. I've been trying to find a profile app for customising ring tones, selecting different tones/sounds for notification, etc. Anything decent out there? Something comparable to Phone Alarm of WinMo would be ideal.

Setting Profiles is a great app. You can set up several profiles and even have them activate automatically based on conditions, such as times or location. Same as Locale, but cheaper and works better.

Thanks.
I managed to find both of them in the end.

[REQ] "Vibetonez" Ringtones???

So Im not sure where this would actually fit in on here but Im looking for something close to a Vibetonez kinda program, for WinMo 6.1. For those of you that dont know Vibetonez were ringtones that when a bass note would hit, or a certain rhythme would go, it would vibrate along with the ringtone music, I was just wondering if someone knew of an alternative or even how you would go about doing something like that, again I appologize if this has been brought up before or If Im putting this in the wrong category, just interested in something like this.
bump..
that would be a nice app..
Try VAlert...
with this u can compose your own vibrate sequence...

I've actually been looking for the same thing (I think), and VAlert didn't provide it:
VAlert lets you set a custom vibration pattern, but as far as I can tell, only one single pattern.
It would be nice if there was a program that let you set multiple different custom vibration patterns for different callers. That way you could 'feel' who was calling, and decide if the call was important or not without having the ringer on.
is there anything that provides that ability?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I was looking for something more like this, or something that responds to the ringtone. not just a set vibrate pattern
Yeah I was thinking more so responding to the actual ringtone, VAlert is nice but it would be nice if you could set multiples ones though, for instance a different vibration for SMS, MMS, Email, Appointment, Voicemail, Ecetera. It would be nice if you could figure out what frequency of music the program would pick up, and vibrate to that frequency, although to me that seems rather demanding on that scale.

a way to use multiple sounds for calandar items?

Hi,
I use my phone (htc touch diamond) as a alarm to get up in the morning, but also to remind realy everything during the day. my problem is, when i set an good iritating tone to get up, that same tone iritates other people during the day hearing my reminders, otherwise, when i schould set an sweeter tone for my reminders, i wont wake up from it.
does anyone knows a way, or if not, and program, how i could use multiple sounds for reminders. best would be when i get an extra field in my standard windows calander with the choise of the sound...

**BUMP**
I use the Touch Pro 2 calendar for many things including medication reminders, but I need different sounds for different reminder too.
Hopefully someone can help.

[Q] How can I schedule ringer settings?

Hi all,
I've tried searching the site as well as Google, but unfortunately all the keywords I come up with are so common I couldn't find what I was looking for.
I'm looking for a way to make the ringer settings for my phone a function of the time of day.
For example, I generally keep the ringer on my phone set to ring once at the lowest volume setting to avoid being rude either in public or while at work (cubicle environment). However, since I don't have a landline at home, I would like to have the ringer automatically change to ring multiple times at high volume to increase the chances of me hearing it / waking me up at night, then revert back in the morning.
At minimum, I want to be able to schedule volume and number of rings. Being able to change the actual ringtone would be a nice bonus. I'm not concerned about more fancy things like different tones for different people or things like that. A solution using a few registry hacks would be fine, a simple little program would of course be better.
Thanks in advance.

sound profiles for nighttime? Only have phone ring?

coming from a BB, my cell is all i use, is there a way at night i can shut off all sound notifications except the phone itself? i dont want to be woken up all the time with emails coming in, and or texts..
is there an option? or an app? widget?
thanks!
The best suggestion I can make is a app called Setting Profiles. The Light version only allows for one profile while paid version allows for more.
One can make profiles based on location, time, calendar events, etc. I use it to silence my phone when I have meetings indicated on my calendar.
Two more apps are PhoneWeaver (auto and manual switching) and Quick Profiles (manual switching only).
One more app you can check out with auto changing of sound profiles is Sound Manager. Works very well.

Can someone recommend a good location-based profile changing app?

I want to be able to:
1) change profiles depending on where I am (primarily, home versus work), preferably using cell towers only like Llama (no GPS, wifi, bluetooth, or data)
2) but with some exceptions, for example I want some people to be able to get in touch with me at work but at a reduced volume. As soon as I step out of the office, I want ringer volume back up
I searched the forums and tested Llama and Automagic and looked at Locale but wasn't sure if I should take the plunge for $10:
Llama - I almost had this doing what I wanted but couldn't get it to sound off when my wife texted me. It also would not let me set different volume levels for the ringer and notifications, which I think was the reason my wife could not get through (noisy contacts option applies only to rings, not to notifications? maybe?)
Automagic - a little too advanced for me
May I politely ask for suggestions?
With tasker maybe?
"Tasker" has an impressive amount of triggers, actions, and parameters that can be used together in an incredible variety of ways. It can even accept scripts to follow instructions.
