[Q] How to set unique ringtone to different contacts - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

I actually meant notification sound. So when I receive a txt fro Bob, my phone will play one sound. When I receive a txt from George, my phone will play a different sound. How do I do that?
Thanks.
[Solved] I downloaded Handcent SMS app for free from the market, it allows you to set different notification sound to different contacts.

simple u go on contacts,click Bob or George.Menu,edit,scroll down to ring tone and choose whatever u want.This doesn't work with imported contacts thou

Thanks for the reply. I have just tried that. But I found out that only works with phone calls, but not receiving SMS.
BTW, what do you mean it doesn't work with imported contacts?

How to have groups with sound

Is there a way to set up a group list and have everyone in that group have the same ring tone? I use pocketcm and would like to still be able to use that program. If anyone could help me with this I would greatly appreciate it. By the way I use Touch No Evil Rom WM6 THANKS!!!!!
i use the app "ringo", it can play most types of tones, and the best part you can assign different tones for your contacts or groups, and it also has support to have individual tones for your sms, so you know who is calling you, or who has sent yopu an sms message
but with ringo silencing the call without rejecting don't works...

[Q] Which system app anwser for?

Hi all!
Can somebody tell me which app answers for notifications of incoming messages and delivered? Can it be fixed by reinstalling of app? Which app do i need to reinstall?
Problem is:
Notifications of incoming messages and delivered are the same, just if i chose different melodies. It use notification of incoming messages allways for both types of them.
Help!
P.S. If anybody can ask about all HTC system app (which is answer for) it will be very good.
Can you try explaining your problem again. I am just not sure what you are asking.
(I am sure your English is better than my Russian though

[Q] Noob Coming over from Blackbery needs Help

Hello:
On my old Blackberry 9700 each contact has a separate ringtone for the phone number and their email address.
Is it possible to have separate ringtones for someone's phone an email address on the Skyrocket without putting a separate entry in the contact for each one?
If there is a way can someone enlighten this noob?
Thanks.

Download the app on the market called ringdroid its free. It will also allow u to use any music you have downloaded as a ringtone. And lets u choose how long the ringtone is, and what parts of songs u want to use
Thanks silver03wrx.
Ringdroid sounds like a ringtone making app.
I have the ringtones on the sd card. I just don't see a way to use separate tones for a single contacts phone number and a different tone for their email address without entering a separate contact for the phone number and another for the email address in my contacts. A lost of extra work.
I like to know when someone is calling me or emailing me. I can then choose to answer right away or not.

Ringdroid does allow you to assign a ringtone to a specific contact look at the attached picture
Yeah i dont think that allows you to seperate the email sound for the same contact though
Hi Silver:
I don't think it does either because I have CNN updates in the contacts with an email address along with a certain ringtone assigned to it & every time an update comes over it plays the default email tone.
This is a bummer because I like to know when family emails me since we're so far apart. Had each one of the siblings on a different tone so I knew right away who it was.
I guess blackberry will always have everyone beat when it comes to handling emails with ringtones.
Thanks for trying Silver.

Try WhoIsIt in the market place. I think it might do what you want.
Hello:
Whoisit didn't get very good reviews.
I also found Enhanced SMS & Caller ID, and Ringo Pro out there that might bridge the gap. Gonna do more research tomorrow morning.
Thanks all.

I understand your frustration, I am also a former 9700 user. The thing I miss most is the centralized Sound Profiles, it's hard / impossible afaik to have profiles setup which will in turn change the alerts and notifications for all installed apps collectively.
Hi Promise:
I'm using Ringo Pro right now. It will ring a tone for phone calls & msgs.
Haven't found anything safe that will do different tones per contact for all three yet.
Will keep looking.

You had the word "free" with a question mark behind it. Which means you were asking if they were free and the guy had FREE behind every app he suggested. That is why I said wow. Maybe it is a language barrier. Not sure where you are from.

[Q] Custom Ringtones

I am looking for a solution that can help me in setting a custom ring tone for a series of phone numbers. These phone numbers cannot be defined in the phonebook because these are quite large numbers. For example there are 2000 phone numbers within my organization that starts with 4560001 - 4562000. I cannot defin all of these in my phone book, but if someone is calling from any of these numbers I want a custom ringtone to be linked to this.
Can anyone help on this
thanks

Do you already have the ringtones you are wnating to use if not go to the market and lookup "myxer" it allowes you to make custome ringtones download them and set them as defualt or specific to a contact
I don't think what you want to do is possible.
Sent from my JellyBeaned Infuse, unofficial cm10
i don't think this is possible too... unless you really group your contacts by number maybe?

I agree you would have to group the contacts to make a specific ringtone for a number of contacts and then group others with another ringtone etc untill it is the way you wanted Myxer will still set the ringtones though and its free
