hi guys i'm having a weird problem and i wanted to see if this is normal. when someone calls me my ringtone has a continuous ring. normally ringtones go RING RING pause RING RING pause RING RING. however, my HOX goes RING RING RING RING RING RING with no pause at all. is this normal?
i'm using standard ringtone 3.
Change your ring tone? Problem solved.

OP, if you'd prefer to keep the ringtone that you chose, you're going to have to add some silence to the end of the audio file. I did this by getting the file off the phone (I'm rooted and used ES File Explorer), then running it through Audacity (free download, plus the free patch to allow it to write MP3s). Add 3 seconds of silence to the end to get the standard 2s-3s-2s... pattern you expect to hear.
Sounds complicated, but it's relatively simple.

thanks for the reply! i'll give it a try.
It what we do here. And what the thanks button is for.
Good luck, let me know if you get it.

Standard 3 is a pretty long ringtone. Maybe too long to have a gap between each ring?

I ran a test to see how long it takes for my phone to actually start ringing.
And it took at the least 4 seconds to start ringing, by this time the caller has heard the ring in his ear for about 5 rings.
Does anybody know how this can be fixed or to be made faster?
What ring setting have you got ? Vibrate and then ring ?

If i remember right the easiest solution is to convert your MP3 ringtone to a .wav file.
Its set to Vibrate and Ring

That is also in my case.
But... once I had a longer period. I checked the taskmanager and a lot of software was loaded. Maybe a program was too busy.
Then I tested again and loaded a bunch of programs and each time the phone was like above: 1e ring blinking and second ringing.
Of course it is possible that, while calling from the same number, the mp3/wav is already in memory, speeding up the process.
So, after a soft reset, it should take more time.
Did not have time to check that.
Huib
P.s.
My problem is: I keep loosing my ringtones now and then after synching with my PC's

Thanks, I will take a look at running apps and try and see what factors would cause delays like this.
I disabled the touch pro themed dial keypad using advanced configuration tool. The phone rang a bit more quickly using windows mobile default keypad.
Ok so I uninstalled CommPro and it seemed to be much quicker now. It get the ringtone after the second ring.
Thanx
Is there anyway to disable the the ringtone fade-in for this phone? It's the first phone I've ever had that does this and I personally prefer my ringtones to play at full volume whenever i receive a call...I tried playing with ringtone apps to add a few seconds of silence to the beginning of the ringtone, but it's just not the same. I've also tried the 'volume locker' app and it's not what I'm looking for. Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
+ 10 for this, I hope there is a way?
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk
ditto the +10 I too would like to know how to prevent the fade-in. I make my own ringtones, if I wanted it to fade-in or fade-out I would include that in the tone
Count me in, I was disappointed with the fade in...
hmm
just a thought check over in the optimus thread. since alot of the framework for their overlay is still there i wonder if it was an option in settings of their overlay but is just sitting in the framework with no way to modify it now.
i havent ported my number over yet from my verizon phone so im not sure i have gotten more than 1 call so i never noticed this.
I have tried searching, but my G2X will not ring. I can see the call coming in, but it does not ring. I have looked at all my settings and even changed some trying to get a sound. I am rooted running CM nightly. I have wiped, can hear music from music player, but no sound for ring. I feel it probably is something simple, but can not figure it out. And yes, I have checked the ringer volume.
Anyone with ideas would be greatly appreciated
Only thing i can tell you is to do a complete wipe and flash again.
Did you check the ringer volume? It has a separate volume slider than the other sounds. While the phone is ringing press the volume up key and see if that makes a difference. You can also see the ringtone volume slider in the sounds, or when you are choosing a ringtone the volume keys will adjust the ringer volume. Sounds like it got set to no volume by accident.
I did another wipe and it worked. I had checked the volume slider.
Thanks guys for the help
Glad to see it's working!!!

lol nice. Will keep this in mind next time i flash my phone.
How do I silence notifications?
I have been looking around the settings and cannot find a way to silence the notification sound for SMS's, emails, etc. On stock Android most applications have a ringtone called "Silent" or something to that effect. On the HOS I cannot find it. I feel stupid asking this, but hopefully I am not the only one that is new to Sense and does not know where this is.
Thank you.

Go into sms>setting>notification>uncheck notification sound to silent sms. Then go to mail>settings>notification settings>uncheck sound notification. Hope this helps

Notifications and the phone Ringer volumes are tied together with no way to separate them. If you put the phone in silent it will silence notifications, or if you use the volume rocker on the side of the phone, notification sound volumes will decrease with ringer volume.

That is completely impractical. If I want notifications silenced, I don't want to jump through ****ing hoops like some dog & pony show, but I suppose technically you're right. As long as you don't mind all those ridiculous steps to get it done. But you can't turn notification volume down without turning ringer volume down.

hey im not htc i didnt decide to make it that way lol. i know its pretty dumb but he wants to be able to silent the sms, email, etc and thats how we have to do it. lol
An alternative solution: Try getting the app Volume Control +, set it so that ringtone volume and notification volume are not linked, and then turn down the volume on notifications all the way.
I haven't tried it, so tell us if it works for you.
I've tried with other volume control apps,and they all show different volumes for a second, but ringer and notification are always the same volume, even if the app shows them as different. I guess I'll give Volume Control+ a shot, but I would be surprised if it made a difference.

Volume Control+ & Audio Manager wont do it either.
Try this app:

Thank you for your responses and support.
I was able to disable the notification sound for gmail and SMS.
However, I cannot find a way to disable the notification sound for calendar events. Does anybody know how to disable event notification sounds?
I think it is crazy that "Silent" is not an option in the default list of notification sounds. It would be the easiest way to disable all notifications in one-step.
Thank you.
Hello, I just picked an HTC One X on at&t and I can't figure out how to disable a ringtone. I still want to be able to hear notification sounds for sms. etc, but prefer not to have a ringtone sound. I realize I can use vibrate and silence mode, but that doesn't really solve the problem completely.
In CM7 on my old phone there was an option to set the ringtone to none in the list, but I don't see such option on the HOX.
Would I have to resort to importing in a blank.ogg ringtone and setting it to that or is there a better way to do it?
I searched through the forum here and saw someone mention an app that allows you to control ringtone volume separate from notification volume, but someone said it didn't work. I'll try to find the app and try that in the mean time.
My phone came with 2.20 firmware unfortunately. If it didn't, I would have rooted, unlocked, and flashed CM10 by now.
Any insight/help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Create a silent MP3 file, put in the ringtones folder, select it as your ringtone. Job done.

Is there a ringtone named silent on your phone? I've been through so many ROMS I can't say for sure if its in stock but it is in every ROM I can remember. It's usually the first ringtone.
