I'm running stock 2.2, not rooted or anything. When my phone turns on, there is a loud beeping. I have since determined that it is a kind of missing file noise, and happens because there is a notification, and the notification ringtone is on the SD card. It goes on until the phone finishes scanning the SD card, and then everything is normal.
This just started happening recently. Why is this? Prior to this, it would usually just wait until it scanned the SD card and then sound the correct ringtone. If I set the ringtone to one of the stock ones, it sounds that ringtone.

I AM CURRENTLY USING T-MOBILE'S T-WING AND AM VERY SATISFIED/THANKFUL WITH ALL THE UPDATES THIS SITE HAS PROVIDED, (OVER CLOCKING, PAGE POOL SIZE, HTC HOME PAGE, vTAP VIDEOS, TCPMP etc..) HOWEVER I HAVE NOTICED THAT THERE WAS/IS A SMALL 'GLITCH' IN MY DEVICE EVEN BEFORE I HAD INSTALLED ANY OF THESE PROGRAMS.
-WHEN THE PHONES VOLUME SETTING IS ON 'LOUD' (VOLUME UP) I RECEIVE CALLS AND TEXT FINE BUT AFTER A WHILE THE VOLUME/SOUND GOES DEAD, THE CALLS/TEXT STILL COME IN BUT THERE IS NO SOUND, I HAVE TO GO BACK TO THE PHONE SETTINGS (SETTINGS/PHONE) RESET THE RINGTONE AND HIT THE 'PLAY' BUTTON AGAIN SO THAT IT ACTUALLY PLAYS SOUND...ANY IDEAS OR HELP ON HOW I CAN FIX THIS, ITS REALLY ANNOYING TO SEE ALL THE MISSED CALLS AND TEXT THAT I NEVER HEAR BECAUSE OF THIS...
umm first off try typing w/o the caps
and the only thing i can think of is, if you're using custom ring tones from your memory card, and you receive a call or sms when the card is out, it jacks everything up.
so if you've ever found that your memory card suddenly doesn't read or something that maybe the culprit, i've found that when the physical memory on the phone >1mb there are problems reading the storage card
The subject basically says it. I can't find a tutorial for my specific phone the Sprint Samsung Transform. I have downloaded my songs, trimmed them down, created the ringtones folder on the root of my sd card, and dropped the mp3s in there. went back to phone settings sounds and notifications. changed my phones ringtone, that worked. now i want to change the sound the plays when i receive a new text, but i cannot find the option to do that on the phone. am i missing something or is there a hack or anything that will enable this?
i found a sort of fix for this. change your notification ringtone to whatever you want your text message ringtone to be. the only problem is it makes that same sound for every notification. most noticeably when you plug your phone ino the charger. thats the best ive figured out tho.
I have a Samsung Droid Charge. Whenever USB Mass Storage Mode is enabled the ringtone it uses for notifications, incoming calls, anything defaults to this slightly annoying ringing tone. The tone itself I don't actually mind all that much since I realize that all my custom ringtones are stored on the MicroSD card which is not available to the phone when Mass Storage Mode is enabled.
My issue with it is the LENGTH at which it rings. If I receive a text while I've got the phone plugged in to the computer and am dinking around with the files on the mSD card it just rings and rings and rings. In fact, I got a text message just as I started typing this post and it's STILL ringing right now as I type this sentence. Apparently it won't stop ringing until I actually do something to acknowledge the notification.
So, my main question is this - Is there a way to change the length that it rings? I most definitely do NOT need a five minute long tone to let me know that I've received a text (plus it drives me nuts to have it ring and ring and ring until I finally grab the phone and open up/acknowledge whatever the notification may be) or have had a reminder from my calendar pop up. My normal text ringtone (the Druuge victory ditty from HyperMelee for any of you that are Star Control II [best game EVER, BTW] fans) in is all of 3 seconds long and that's quite sufficient.
Is there perhaps a way to copy my regular notification ringtone to the phone's built-in memory and tell it to use that when mass storage is connected? In fact, it'd be nice to copy all of my active ringtones to the phones onboard memory. If this happens to be possible, then I figure that it'd ring like it normally does when USB Mass Storage mode is enabled. If it's not possible to copy anything to the phone's onboard memory then I'm perfectly willing to settle for just shortening the length at which that damned Storage Mode tone happens to play.
Has anyone else experienced this, or is it unique to the Samsung Droid Charge?
No way to change this?
Can you move your ringtones to your phone memory? Is your phone rooted?

I just installed the leaked official Gingerbread ROM, and while it says it's rooted (the filename at least does) it didn't appear to be so. I just installed the debloated version of the ROM on the same page there.
Do the rooting methods shown out there depend on having a specific ROM installed?
Ringdroid.
Everything was fine until I realized I cant change my custom ringtone anymore. Whatever ringtone I set the custom one would ring even though it showed the other one is selected. So I deleted the ringtone and then was able to change it.
However only after a little while the phone just stopped ringing, the default tone seems to be silent and whatever I put it wont change. I put back my custom ringtone, rebooted, then deleted all the custom ringtones again and yet I am unable to get my phone to ring.
I have tried setting a ringtone through playerpro music player as well but to no avail.
The notification sound comes as normal. I am running stock unrooted 4.0.4. What should I do?
Figured out the problem. There were some specific contacts that did not have a ringtone assigned to them and my own second phone was one of them from which I was doing the testing. I was using a profile scheduler app previously and in that I had put some of the contacts on the whitelist to allow them to call me even on silent mode. So it was the app which was controlling those contacts and even after uninstalling it the settings hadnt defaulted.
Anyone having this issue? I can put them on the SD card or internal storage in /Notifications/ respectively, and I can select them in the sound settings, but it still plays the default notification sound when I get a message.
I originally put a custom notification sound in the "Notifications"folder as well. It didn't even pop up in the notification sound selection menu for me. I had to place the sound in /media/audio/notifications/ and then it showed up in the menu for me and it worked fine. Try giving that a shot!
Tried that, still default notification. Thanks though.
Ok, so I was in Target (which has horrible reception) and switched to roaming (has happened in this Target with every VZW phone I've ever had), and that played by custom nofication, but any SMS, MMS, etc plays the default notification sound still...
so does that mean you can't put ringtone/notifications on an SD card ?
anyone know if this phone does custom notification lights ?
