so i have lots of cool rigntones and sounds for sms and notifications,but wouldnt it be cool if there was an app that would automatically play a random sound for callls and txts? that way it would always be preety fun to hear something different every time! was wondering if anybody ever came across such a program ? oh yeah for android platform
anybody??? thought this 1 might have come up once b4
Probably too dependent on the phone branding, etc.
I had one on my old phone, and it was either called "toneshuffler" or "ringshuffler". Try searching for those two. It was free, and it worked well enough at the time, but I have not used it in a while.
Its called shuffletone and is on the market

Hey guys,
I'm looking for an app or widget, which is able to ring or vibrate every 50 minutes. I found apps with single countdown or with other predefined intervals. Any ideas?
BTW: great and awesome killer-xda-app

You could use one of the poker timers in the market and set the blind timers.
@GlobaL_TroTTer
thx for your offer.
this is such a great forum with such f*ckin' friendly users...i'm really impressed...
this app/tool should vibrate every 50minutes, because i'm playing an online game, where i get money every 50minutes, and if somebody attacking me, the money is gone... ( )
so, the idea of evilkorn isn't bad.
but i've searched an tried maybe 6 to 8 apps,
but none of these was able to do this.
maybe a poker timer will do it's job...
i'll report later...
thanks guys and sorry für bad bad englisch
Worst case scenario, set alarms 50 minutes apart, haha. You just have to make sure you start playing right as the first alarm goes off so it's exactly 50 minutes apart. Not sure if that'll work for you, though. Just a thought!
so, i'm back and i didn't found an prog which is able to do this.
i found some poker-apps, but there i could do a countdown for 30 rounds or so. but i need an endless countdown... it should start manually one time, maybe after a restart, and then until the next restart. and maybe one short ring oder vibrate to show, that 50mins are gone...
@GlobaL_TroTTer
could u do this for me?
thanks for the answers
PS: the last post i can't follow :/
Yeah ill try. Tell me exactly how u want it
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
you are the best, man...
how cool are ur skills?!
basics:
There should be a window where u can place a length of time...
in my case exactly 50 minutes...
and a button, which starts the countdown.
if the counter reached zero, it should restart counting (backwards) immediately, without any user-interaction. an endless loop...
it would be nice, when the user can choose, wether he wants a ringing signal or just vibrating. and it would be nicer, when the user can choose the kind of ringing tone... but a simple *pling* would be enough...
if u area bit deeper in the matter, i could create a widget, which tell the user the rest of the time until "the end" (of the 50 minutes).
but it would be enough, if there is the essential counter and i short vibrating...
BIG BIG THANKS, u are the best...
Onetouch timer should be able to do this. It will set custom alarm repeats, any amount of hh mm ss. It's also awesome for general countdown and stopwatch use.

i think u're wrong.
i couldn't find any option to repeat the timer... only to repeat the alarm...
search for workout timers, intervall timers
making it now
im keeping it simple, may improove it later
Ok its done
Download it from my beta website http://hedbergm.kicks-ass.net/Site/download.html
damned, seems that ur site is currently down?
Do you still want it, pm me!

Here is he app!!!!
heres the app
Seems to be a cool app. Will test tomorrow. I like the simplicity and the sound. Not penetrating like other ones. Good choice. Is it possible to add personal times? Last time I was ill and had to take some pills every hour. Just another part of daily use for your cool app. But needed 60 minutes, not 50.
After testing tomorrow I will give you another feedback.
But I want to say big thanks for your nice work...

custom times
ill definitely try out custom times within the app. thanks for the feedback
hey,
after testing i can say that the app only rings with "test sound" or so, but not within the 50 minutes. i dont know wether it is cause of an "automated task killer" or whatever.
i have whitelisted your app, but i didn'T hear any sound...
do u have an idea? what kind of sound is your tone?
"alarm sound" or "multimedia sound"?
both of them was loud on my phone, but it only was an idea of finding the error-source...
Ive redone the whole app + a stopwatch. Its allmost done ill upload some screen shots.

Well i played around and found some threads saying ringtones showed up in the media player. Well i was happening to me to and i have a pet pave about stuff like that. anyway i found a thread on another site saying make as path sd\media\audio\ringtones and it would work. well it didn't i tried on the sd card on the phone. the sd card i put in there and the root . well last hope of it working and i noticed some show up and some didn't. well i dug a little deeper and found out the the ringtones that were over 300KB were showing up and the ones under 300kb were not.
Well there you have it if you dont want your ringtones to come up with the list of music in the media play downsize the file to under 300kb. It worked for me. I hope it makes some other Captivate owners happy. Have a wonder full day
by the way this is my first post. Thanks for all the great info out there guys. Thanks
any body tried this and work for them
Nice find! Ill have to downsample my tones a bit more but ill give it a shot later.

I wanted an application that could do this but all I could find was the one from blueAnt which only works with their specific bluetooth device...
You could use Tasker and use this profile - price looks high but it's VERY powerful once you know what you're doing.
Comes with a trial mode for around seven days.
+1 for Tasker. Brilliant app.
I have my 'in car' profile set to read texts - on text receipt it pauses the music player, then reads the senders contact name, and then the body of the text. Awesome.
i was planning on getting the blueant Q1 (just found it for $25). are you saying it won't work with handcent in reading a txt message?
edit: forget it...answered my own question by going to their site. "Hear text messages read aloud on your Q1 when connected to an Android device with our Android application."
What about the vlingo application. It has an email and sms reader that reads the message out loud when activated, but I haven't managed to get it to read the message through the Bluetooth headset

Wondering why SayMyName hasn't been mentioned yet... works fantastic even with caller names, mail, Twitter etc.

SMS Speak
Just stumbled across this thread looking for something else. But thought I'd chime in. I use SMS Speak (the paid one, not the free one - two different companies/products), and it works great. I can get incoming texts and reply, all orally. I'm curious about the other products mentioned, though...

Did you accidentally put your phone in driving mode or change a setting for something like that?

DCMA again I bet..
Anyone have the apk of the last version?
It still works, just not on the market anymore.
ZEDGE works well
I use ZEDGE as well, it can be a pain to find some things but 4/5 times usually has what I'm looking for to a point. Other than that I just use ringdroid or PowerAMP.
You still can download it on their site.

It seems they may be still alive. When I did a search on their site I was able to download the ringtone on my computer. But I'm not sure why the app is acting up.
