Anyone got any normal, telephone sounding, non-embarrasing ringtones? Need something that sounds a little more professional than my current one
What do others use?
Thanks
any wav, mp3, wma or midi you can find online would work
or you can record another phone rining using your pda or pc
or sing a rind tone yourself
google finds all
I use the Old Phone ringtone. It's included on the device.
Attached is the "Bronze" and "Steel" ringtone from the B&O phone, I use "Bronze" for SMS and it is very discreet and professional sounding, but my ringtone at the moment is this:

you got anymore B&O ringtones?
As I understand it, those are the only two tones it has. Someone else in another post extracted them from the website, which only features those two.
Edit: Sorry to pollute the thread, but Family Guy afficionados may also appreciate these little offerings (also great for SMS).
Thanks for everyones posts, but I'm still none the wiser! (even after spending over an hour googling for ringtones...)
Surely people out there must have a decent, 'phone' sounding ringtone that they use when Family Guy etc wouldn't go down too well?
Perhaps I have spotted a gap in the market.....www.business-ringtones.com .... www.boring-ringtones.com ..... etc

if non of these hits or others from the google search helps you
i sugest you specify what you are looking for
because i sure never heard a ring tone that made me go
"damm that sounded like a business and or boring phone rining"
....
Damn, none of those sounded like a business ringtone.... only joking!!
Thanks mate, will take a look....but don't you just hate it when people find things instantly on Google, after you've spent ages looking?!?!
I'm still starting www.boring-ringtones.com BTW...gonna have some reeeeeal boring ringtones on there.
I use the CTU ring from the show 24 as my ringtone.
Sounds like a phone, but not the same old same old.
How proffffesssionallll do you need?
I dont use ringtone, if you are pro. vibra only!!!
You can create your own ringtones, well they are more like statements as if your phone is speaking to you. Go to AT&T text to speech
http://www.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php#top
type in what you want it to say and chose your dialect, try it out and when your happy with it then download it as a wave file - easy - and free.
Different statements for different profiles, I use Phone Alarm and at 10:00 each night the phone switches into "flight mode" and my XDA Exec say
"Flight Mode has been activated"
www.zedge.com have a voice and effects tool which makes tones and sms for free
Heres a cool idea, which I happen to use. Download a text-to-speech program like coolspeech. Program it to say:
"(Your Name), you have an incoming call".
Save it as a wav and drop it in my ringtones folder. Very simple and professional.
Just had a good laugh on the AT&T site writing stupid messages to have it played back to me....ah well, passed at least 2 mins....
Anyway, back to the point.
Just to briefly specify what I'm looking for (still didn't find it from Google even after your help Rudegar)-
- a telephone sounding ringtone, but not like an old phone with the bells on, just a gentle, not shrill, modern sounding telephone.
Surely there's one somewhere???
download the ringtone here.

simple and sweet
ITS PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME!
lol
The Ring-Standard included in WM6 sounds pretty professional and "non-wierd". Might be an easy option if you have WM6.
hi to all. im in need of some help. recently, i have acquired PROBEX's theme (TF7X). however, this theme is created for cdma phone. i seek help from anyone who's able to port this theme over to gsm. reason being is that the theme doesnt include 3G video calling, phone canvas (slide to answer/reject) and the reception icon is showing a default one. i have spoken to PROBEX over at SPJ and he wasnt able to port the theme overdue to lack of gsm device.
please do help and thanks. once (if) the conversion is done, i will send it back to PROBEX for uploading with credits of conversion from you.

I had a LG voyager through verizon wireless and before i got rid of it.. It would tell me where the caller was calling from.. Thought that was neat.. I have the samsung omnia and trying to do the something. Something similar to this site
Link here If anyone could lean me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. Thanks.
This may be what you are looking for as it provides the details you seem to be after. Only catch ... I'm not sure if it will be compatible with your device.

HTH,
I am considering creating a widget for any Android phone (incl. 1.0, maybe from 1.5 up, I'm unsure atm) that sends a text to 20202 and then feeds back with the answer.
For O2 users on PAYG (and possibly contract), if you wish to see your Minutes, Data and Texts allowance, you can send a text with any message (I usually put Balance, just incase!) to 20202 and they will reply with your remainding Minutes, MB and Texts.
I was thinking - a simple widget on the homepage, works just like CheckBalance (which calls your provider's balance checker - for example, if you were on O2, it would call *#10# and your balance would appear on the screen (mine's usually £0.01 hah)) and even APNdroid - you would click the widget and it would send that text to 20202 and then grab the texts and even possibly delete that text-thread, so your threads will only have your friends or whatever in the threadslist.
I'm looking into it and I wanted to know if anyone thought this would be a good idea? If it works and there are numbers for other providers, I would happily make the app for ALL providers (starting with the UK and then going Global).
So, would this be a good app and would you use it?
As another O2 UK user, I've been hoping something like this would come along for a long time, so yes, this is a good idea in my books
+1
I've been waiting for something like this.
Yes please! Another O2 customer here who would love something like that.
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
With the disgraceful level of support O2 are giving the Android I have no doubt that at some point they will join here to ask you to do it for them too.
My HTC desire may well end up back in their store since it refuses to do MMS for some reason.
I have looked into the source code and HelloWorld tuts on the Android site and I can see this taking a long time for me to understand this crap. I've looked at App Inventor but like everyone else, I haven't had a response.
I also wish to ask anyone if they could help with this? I've asked Martin Adamek (creator of APNdroid) because APNdroid is so similar to what this app would be like. I've looked at his source and I can't understand it! APNdroid is a widget which then does something and this would be a widget that does something too.
I've also asked the creator of CheckBalance as that is much closer than APNdroid, but his source hasn't been shared/released. CheckBalance, of course, dials the number to check your balance (O2 = *#10#) and it tells you in the press of one button, which is very similar to sending a text and getting the feedback.
I'm still looking into this and ANY help will be appreciated.
At first, I will only be doing this for O2 but I will DEFINITELY include other providers, if/when this gets going!
Hello everybody
Does anyone know how to setup custom SMS tones on the 8X? I have a short message tone I used to use on my old phone (in mp3 format), but I cant find any way of setting this up on the 8X.
I have emailed HTC directly several times, but they keep coming back with how to set a custom ring tone, not a message tone.
I have searched the X8 forums but have not been able to find a similar thread, I have found threads for older phones (circa 2009), does anyone know if any of these work?
This is my first HTC phone and also my first Windows phone, so far I am enjoying the experience, but I have found customising it surprisingly lacking.
Thanks in advance.
There is a uservoice request (http://windowsphone.uservoice.com/f...stom-sounds-for-sms-mms-email-notifications-e) for this.
I would recommend adding your votes as it is a very important feature to include.

custom Roms
since there is no any custom ROM it is impossible right?
Thanks for the info, I have added my vote
