Samsung AO2s. I am not able to change the ringtone as it always reverts to a particular ringtone in the ringtone file. I don't like that tone and what can I do to make the one I like to make it permanent? It seems it just want s to use the one it picked which seems like a notification.

Does anyone know what the Notifications ringtone under the main setting in sound and display affects? I changed it around, but it doesn't seem to affect anything. If I change the notification ringtone under messaging it works, same with email. Just not sure what the main one does.
Any ideas?
I've added a ring tone to a contact in my list, but when they call it just plays the main ring tone. Anyone else having this issue? I searched and didn't see anything, this is a HTC Arrive (with NoDo of course) not sure if that matters.
Thanks for any info.
I also noticed this.
I figured it was due to the custom ringtone i added.
I also added a custom ringtone, but if I set a contacts ringtone to one of the built in ones it still doesn't work. Perhaps the act of adding a custom ringtone breaks the ability to set contact specific ringtones? I hadn't set one before that so I'm not sure. I'll try deleting the custom ringtone (if I can) and see if I can then set contact specific ringtones. Anyone who has never added a custom ringtone and does have contact specifc ring tones? are they working?
Thanks
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.
Ok, odd problem and I am not sure if this is the best place to ask.
Handcent started playing the "Droid" ringtone as its default the other day. I didnt change it. I set it back to custom and it is fine. So I can gather
BUT - now all custom contacts that I had individual ringtones for, or even ones I didnt have custom tones for ring as "Droid" and not the Handcent default.
System default is also set to this custom tone. I havent tried deleting and seeing what happens yet with new incoming
But I really needed custom tones because I get 911 texts for emergency dispatch and have special tones for it.
This just started happening after recent update I think.
Any suggestions
Hi everyone.
One real nuisance I'm experiencing is that, whenever I change the ring or notification tone, after a short time they revert to the defaults that were set when I received the new phone. It makes no difference whether I choose an alternative built-in tone or an MP3 one of my own.
It's really annoying because the default ones are so soft and bland that I often don't hear them. Also, how infuriating is it that there seems to be no way to select an MP3 tone except by endlessly scrolling through every single music track I've got stored on the phone. Especially when I've gone to the trouble of storing them in the in-built 'Notifications' and 'Ringtone' folders.
Has anyone else experienced the same issue?

Yes I agree the file system is so naive, it's not as intuitive as Samsung, Huawei, etc. The file system is half hearted at best.

Yes!! Highly annoying and not sure why it's happening or how to fix. I just want to change my ringtone and SMS sounds etc to different system sounds but they won't stick.
