Change tones based on location?

I'm just wondering about an app that would change the ringtones and message tones based on location... I.e. when your at work, you want work appropriate ringtones and when ur not at work they go back to normal... I've tried profile changers (smarter profiles) that are wifi based, but it doesn't change the tones, just the volume..... any ideas?

Maybe something like Settings Profile? I have the paid version and it works very well.

Dude that was exactly what I wanted! God I love xda!

Individual ringtones for contacts

Does anyone know any good roms where you can set individual ringtones for contacts. I tried a few and can't seem to find one.

As far as I remember you can on all of them.

I have used AR-HD and I am currently using Inspired Ace and both will let you assign ringtones without any issue.

Thanks everyone. But im running cm7.1 rl and it wont let me, even when I go into edit contact.

Try ringdroid

That is because of the contacts app, use a 3rd party to set ringtones. I use Whoisit. It controls your notifications like nothing else I have found. Well worth the money. There are a few free apps like the one newter suggested that allow you to select personal mp3 files for ringtones. Some custom roms come with an app already built in.

I'm Currently running NINJA 716 which is based on CM and i can assign custom ringtones to different contacts on using the default contacts app. When you go into a contact hit menu then options and assign a ringtone.
i also tried this on my sister cliqxt running CM7.1 RC1 and it works

To select a ringtone for an individual contact in cm7 go to view the contact hit menu and choose option there will be an option to set a ringtone there.

Oh yeah. Duh. I tried hitting menu as I was in edit mode and it gave no options. Totally forgot to just select contact an hit menu. Now I can rove the other apps to save space. Thanks everyone

Notification tones

Anyone else have issues with zedge notification tones not sticking? I have one I downloaded selected but when I get an email or text a default system one plays. Any ideas?

You have to manually set those by going into each and apply it in their settings. Like for the text, open up messages, click menu and go into settings and change the tone all the way at the bottom of the menu. Same applies for the email

That worked, thanks man.

That's odd. My boss has an infuse and he doesn't have to set them each manually. He's able to just set his notification tone in either sedge or in settings and it works for texts and email.

Happened to me too. I set the one in settings, but it only worked for general notifications, not text. That one I had to go the setting in the message app itself, which I thought was weird.
But then I thought about it and it makes sense. If you want to have multiple sounds for different types of notifications.

Removing default sound

How the heck do you remove (or change ) the default sound for receiving e-mail messages?
I've tried going into settings and GMail, but with no luck. For lack of a better way to describe the sound, it sounds like a "haunting sound". I've installed a number of ROMs and this sound seems to be the default.
Thanks!!

I think your talking about the "notification ringtone." For me, email, Facebook, and any other apps are tied together to this. Just go to settings/sounds/notification, to change.

Yea, I have tried that, but it still uses the same sound

Go t root explorer....system>media>notifications>and delete your selected ringtone

Really? I always change my notification tone in the gmail settings. Check again. Or tell me what you see in settings.

Thanks, everyone. Turned out I missed changing a setting in my email program. Usually when I restore my apps using TBU, I haven't had to worry about that setting, but for some reason the notification tone changed this last time I flashed a ROM.

Aeon rom 4 tab lockescreen? 'S

I just installed the Aeon rom v1.4 and I love the 4 tab lockscreen, but I can't figure out how to change the message tab to use handcent instead of the default messaging app. I am running my phone with straight talk and not att so the stock messaging app does not put the messages in the correct order received and sent for some reason.

What if you turn the notification off for the default? Settings within the default msg app.
Right section wrong thread but your issues will get addressed kk.

That may require a setting default mms app, rename his mms app to stock app or hack into the locks and make it call a different program than the default mms. Nun knows best.
For one person with a request though, idk..

I have set handscent as default and put it in my dock, and nothing. And I am not experianced enough to go into the files and change defaults yet. I would have no idea where to begin. I have explored it but I do not want to screw anything up. Already soft bricked my phone trying to flash this rom. And now I realize HOW easy it is to use cwm. I'm learning. Just need some guidance.

That was my initial thought as well - if the locks app is calling the stock filename, what about renaming the Handscent app to that filename? Seems it would call it, then.

How would I go about renaming handcent with es file?
