Ringtone and custom notification

I tried to select the ringtone and custom notification, but in spite of some contacts have not selected any sound, vibration, led, my q10 does not follow the rules set for the sisngolo contact but follows those of the profile.

I discovered this ... custom settings regarding ringtones and alerts are only if the selected profile is the standard one. If you put your listing in vibration such as that is jumping around .... so if I select a contact for all alerts off, putting into vibration .... "wins" the profile ... and goodbye to customize notifications of contact .... nice ... after spending 700 euro ... blackberry no exceptions ... unfortunately

Ringtones and email notifications!

I just got the droid razr yesterday (it's also my first smartphone) and I can't figure out how to get ringtones! My husband has a plain phone and sent me ringtones but when I open them they play the music but there is nothing under options saying use as ringtone. I have no music downloaded on my phone at all to use. Also I keep getting notifications every time I get a new email in my yahoo account. I want to keep yahoo on my phone but I don't want all the notifications every time i get mail cuz most of it is junk! Thanks!!!!!!

If you long press the ringtone it should give you a list of options you can then go one of two ways. Option one is "set as" and then choose ringtone. Option two (what I usually do) is to save then, using your computer (plug your phone in via USB) or a file manager app from the market, create a folder named media, then inside that, folders named ringtones, notifications, and alarms and move the file to the appropriate place (it should be in a folder named download originally). It should now show up in the list when you go to set a ringtone in the normal way.

There may be an option to show the notification without a sound or there may be a "silent ringtone". If not, you should be able to find a silent ringtone online and set it in the way I described above. You may also be able to set it to check less often or only when you open the mail app.

Can the Curve output the ringtones and SMS notifications to headphones or to an externally connected speaker?

Ok, here's the deal. I'm a network engineer, and my company uses a monitoring system which sends SMS text messages to pre-defined corporate cellphone numbers when something requires an engineer's attention. My problem is that I'm a VERY deep sleeper (laugh if you must; I need three separate alarms to wake up in the morning), and my current phone's speaker (a Curve 8310) is simply not loud enough to wake me up. Nor is any other phone, I would imagine. Not unless it has a 30-minute ringtone.
So my question is, can the Curve, when connected to an external speaker or a pair of headphones via 3.5mm audio cable, output its ringer or its SMS notification tones through the audio jack to the speaker/headphones in addition to (or instead of) the phone's built-in speaker?

eh, you never know... I've had people thank me PROFUSELY, before, for giving them those loud tones, but of course they tried them first
Your Alarm tone can be as long as you want... Mine repeats until I touch the screen, then I have a one minute snooze. I use a loud tone also, because most would never awaken me.

Profile notifications and customizing contacts

Hi Everyone,
I hope someone can help me with following issues:
1. When I change ringtone, volume vibration and LED settings (on or off) on one of the profiles, it automatically changes on the other profiles as well. I simply cannot set different ringtones and other settings
for different profiles, which is really odd.
2. When I'm customizing contact, there is no "silent" mode for the phone or for the messages.

Hey ssarkissov,
Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
Changes that are made to notifications are globally to all all modes, each mode can not be customized. Currently when customizing a contact you cannot set the volume for this contact to silent.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.

Why can't I set my downloaded .dm ringtones as text and email notifications?

I have an HTC Incredible 2; I paid for and downloaded several ringtones from the Verizon store, two of which I wanted to specifically use as the text and email notification sounds. I then had the already discussed problem of not being able to find the newly downloaded ringtones immediately, but from the postings on here and the Adriod forums, I followed the directions to set up the folders titled Ringtones, Notifications, and Alarms on my sdcard, and moved the downloaded ringtones into their respective folders. When I opened up the Personalize menu, under Sounds I was immediately able to find the ringtones I'd placed in the ringtone folder, but my phone wouldn't recognize the ringtons I'd placed in the Notifications folder.
I downloaded the app Zedge, downloaded specific Notification sounds (.mp3, and they work). I also downloaded .mp3 ringtones and then moved them into the Notifications folders, and THAT worked. The problem seems to be that these are .dm files? Is my phone unable to read .dm files as Notification sounds? Or is there something I missed? Something else I can do?
I looked all over for software that will convert .dm files to .mp3, found a suggestion calling for the deletion of a couple of the lines of code from within the .dm file using Notebook ++, but that didn't work. I don't remember seeing anywhere in the store that these ringtone files come in the protected .dm filetype; that many players will not be able to play them, and that I won't be able to use them for notification sounds?
Ay one have any suggestions? Verizon: am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Usually when you purchase ringtones from the Verizon store, you can only use them as ringtones. Since you have a smartphone, an app would be the best bet. You can find almost any song you're looking for in a free ringtone app, there's no need to purchase them.

I downloaded a ringtone ap, picked out several ringtones and downloaded them to itunes. When I synced my iphone with the computer they did not appear on my phone. It says to go to custom but I don't see that on my phone in ringtone settings. next step.

I downloaded a ringtone ap, picked out my ringtones and sent them to myself, got them in itunes and then synced my iphone. No new ringtones on my iphone. It said to look in custom, I do not have that listed under ringtones in sounds. What do I do or can I get different ringtones on my phone?

It was gift back in September. You can follow the instructions in the link below to remove them:

I backed up my 3GS using iTunes. I then restored the file to my new 4GS. Then I synced the apps onto the 4GS. Then I downloaded 2 custom ringtones, and attempted to sync them onto the 4GS, but it says "This Library is already synced with another phone, and if you try to sync, you will lose all of the information on the iPhone." I am a Windows user. This Sync process is VERY confusing.

How can I possibly get these two new ringtones onto the iPhone without wiping out everything else on the phone? This Sync process is nuts.
I have Backed Up the phone twice. Why would iTunes try to wipe out the phone?

Plz someone help I made custom ringtones and when I try to put them in my iPhone 4 it hey appear gray on iTunes and won't go on my phone and I tried syncing it don't help what do I do???!!!

The ringtone file format is m4r. You can create ringtone from any of your music file in your iTunes Music library.
Follow steps as follow:
1. Right mouse click the song in music library you want to create ringtone and choose “Get Info”
2. Choose “Option” Tab, Check “Start Time” n Stop Time” of the track you want to make into ringtone and put in your start time and end time (Max 40 secs duration), then click OK
3. Right mouse click the music file again and choose “Create AAC Version”
4. You will see a copy of song with same name appeared but with 40sec duration only. Now drag the song onto your desktop and you will see the name is now xxxxxx.m4a.
5. Change the file extension m4a into m4r from the desktop
6. Delete the 40sec m4a file from the music library (You must do this step or Itune will not accept your new m4r file).
7. *Important - Now uncheck the start n stop time of the original song so that you can play back full length.
8. Now, drag the m4r file from desktop to Library
9. Click onto the Tones under Library, and you find you ringone file.
Note: Just in case you cannot "Create AAC version" from Step 3, go to top menu, click "Edit", "Preference". Under "general" Tab, click "Import Settings", make sure under Import Using that "AAC Encoder" is selected.
Once you have ringtones in Tones library, you can sync ringtones over by connecting your phone to PC, select iPhone under Devices on iTunes left Pane, then go to 'Tones' tab and check SYNC TONES as well as the ringtones. Click the SYNC button on the lower right window.

Ringtones and notification volume

Hello ,
I've got a Xperia Z3 compact , i got a probleme with my ringtones and notifications volume.
It's ok when i play it in selection menu , but when it setted , i can't herad my phone when somebody call me or when i receive a sms or other notification.....
All volumes are setted on maximum level, and i try with all souds effect turned on/off.
Is there a solution for this issue?

sad to say , sony dont care.
this prb exsisted since z2 (least from what i know )
they dont realize how soft their notification is.
playing with media is loud
but using as a notification tone is not. they need seperate volume tweaker like samsung or lg where u can only up notificaion volume to make it happen. apparently they dont watn to make one lol

Ringtone and notification sounds change randomly

this was posted awhile ago on the thunderbolt site but was never answered, seems it was posted in the thunderbolt forum, the Rezound I have changes to factory verizon ringtone and a different notification sound on its own, is anyone else having this issue, and is there a fix out there? thanks

I have also thought it might be related to the speed class of the SD card. When the phone boots up it has to mount the SD card. If the mounting is slower than when the phone searches for the ringtones, the phone reverts to stock tones.
I was occasionally seeing this on my Tbolt with the class 4 micro SD card that came with the phone. I haven't seen the issue since switching to a class 10 card.

No ringtones and notifications through Bluetooth headset?

I have searched the app market high and low for an app that will direct ringtones and notification tones to the bluetooth headset. Not just some cheesy tone from the app itself, but the actual tone that the phone emits.
This seems to be a limitation of the X, no?
Geri O

That's a strange one, I don't use a bluetooth headset any more so I never noticed this happened, since it worked on all my other devices I figure this would work for the headsets also. I remember when I had this issue with WM devices and I usually could resolve with a app, I would be surprise that there isn't a app on market for this.
Another thing to try is to go to Settings / Wireless and Networks / Bluetooth Settings and press and hold on headset label and select Options and see if there is any advance options that can resolve this..

HT4623 I have just finished the upgradation to an iOS 6.1.3 and have lost sound in Music and Videos. I am using an iPhone 4S. My iPhone doesn't produce sound when playing Youtube or local camera videos. However ringtones and notifications sound works fine

I have just finished the upgradation to an iOS 6.1.3 and have lost sound in Music and Videos. I am using an iPhone 4S. My iPhone doesn't produce sound when playing Youtube or local camera videos. However ringtones and notifications sound works fine.It is quite strange as well. Have you encountered this issue before?If yes then what's the solution?

I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

Transfering ringtones and notification tones from Z3 to another Z3?

Hello,
I wish to transfer my iPhone m4r ringtones/notification tones/alarms to my new Xperia Z3 phone - so how to do this? I created those tones by Ringtonium app so those tones are not bought ones. Those files are on my Mac laptop. I tried to use Xperia Transfer Mobile to transfer those files but it didn´t accept. I could find them - even made a folder for those files but they just appered to be gray colored meaning that I can´t select them even I could see them :-(. If possible to transfer them somehow I would be very thankful - just wouldn´t like to make them once again as there are plenty of them....
Many thanks in advance for your help :-)

Curve 8330 Custom Notifications

Hello all. New Blackberry user here. Just got the unit yesterday and spent a few hours trying to get everything set up.
The problem I am having is trying to get my custom notifications to work with my contacts.
Ok, so here we go:
Sender A sends me a text or e-mail, and I want lets say Notifier_ChiGong as the sound for them.
Sender B sends me a text or e-mail, and I want lets say Sound A on my media card to play for them.
Now, I want all other texts and e-mails from everyone else (on or not on my contact lists) to play lets say Sound B on my media card to play for these.
When I receive a voice mail notification, I would like a completely diffrent sound, lets say Sound C from my media card to play for this one.
I have tried setting up the excpetions and all that but nothing works...All texts emails and voicemail notifications plays the same sound, Sound B.
I have searched the forums, but I can't figure this thing out for the life of me. Everything else is coming to me as I keep playing with this unit. I also spent 2 hours last night manually entering my contacts into this unit, since my previous phone was not a smartphone, and I did not want to synch into my e-mail software and destroy my many various contact lists...
Andy help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I copied and pasted the post below.
It is complicated for SMS tones, but possible. Follow the directions here:
This workaround will allow you to have specific alerts for email and messages from specific senders:
(Works with OS 4.2 and above)
1. Go to Profiles on your BlackBerry and create a new custom profile, naming it the name of your targeted sender.
2. Edit and change the Messages, Level 1 Messages, MMS, Phone and SMS notifications for this profile to the custom ringtones you prefer for this contact. Don't worry about changing things like Calendar, Messenger Alerts and Tasks don't matter for individual users.
3. Once all of your ringtone settings are set for the new custom profile, save the changes. Now you will be back to your Profiles list and will see your custom profile listed there with the standard ones.
4. Now wheel click and select New Exception.
5. Title the exception whatever you want (would be smart to name it again the name of that particular contact).
6. In the FROM line, click the trackwheel or trackball and select the user from your address book. They should now show in your From line.
7. Scroll down and change the Use Profile option from Active Profile to your newly created custom group.
8. You may remove the check box from "Custom Phone Tune" if you already have a custom phone tune for this contact, or leave it and set it in the new custom profile as well.
9. Save the changes.
Now once you have followed these for each SMS contact - click save as number nine says. Go back to your profile and click either normal or loud for the profile sound. Make sure you do not have any exceptions already in your exception area regarding the ones you have made a SMS tone for. if you do, remove them so you SMS tone will work. You can actually set your ringtones under each one of these you set up as well. When you are changing your SMS sounds, you can click on phone and change your ringtone to that specific one. Hope you can understand this.
All of us will be more than happy to help you, just let us know!
Have a great day and good luck. Enjoy your blackberry!
