HELP! Ring tone keeps resetting to default BASS :(

Hi All,
Since upgrading to Windows Mobile 2003 SE I have been experiencing a really annoying problem where the ring tone resets to the default "BASS" ring instead of the one I set. The one I want normally stays set for a while but after a day or so I find that it has reset back. The strange thing is that I don't hear the BASS ring tone at all, the phone vibrates but the phone is silent. That is the worst thing because I can't tell when i'm getting a phone call!
I have tried doing a hard reset on the phone but the problem remains. Everything was fine before upgrading to Second Edition I don't want to have to go back.
Anyone have any ideas what is going wrong here?
Many thanks,
Richard.

I'm amazed that no one else has seen this problem on an XDA II. I just have the standard WM2003SE downloaded from this site.
Its driving me nuts. Can anyone help please?
Thanks,
Richard.

next time post on the right place plz
If your setting using MP3 for your ring tone, you should set windows media player for your default mp3 player. Otherwise the ring tone keeps resetting to default bass.
hope it can help

Thanks for the reply. I'm using .wav ringtones rather than mp3 ringtones though.
Cheers,
Richard.

phone rings 3 seconds delayed

Hi,
i have encountered the following problem .. when i try to call my phone, my mda pro rings with 3 or 4 seconds delay .. so .. it happens that callers drop the line because they think i am busy .. just before the first ring of the mda pro.
This happens with MP3s or WAVs - no difference.
Anyone else with this experience ?

Do u have any Call Divert?...
How about trying some of the midi file comes as a ringtones by default?

Got the same problem on my wifes MDA Pro and on occasion on my Jasjar.

No,
i don´t have call divert. And .. i tried midi, wav and mp3. All the same delay.
- Superbowl

! have around a 1 ring delay - say 1 full second

it happens to me when my device is off and only if mp3 ringtone is in storage card. if the mp3 ringtone is in "my documents" no problem... :lol:

Notification sounds halts/stops/pauses all other audio playback via headset

Ok guys/gals, this is my first post ever and I'm pretty sure I've looked and searched all of the Xperia threads for a solution to this issue I'm having with my X1i.
If i'm playing music (using WMP or the Media Panel) with the Headset plugged in and a new SMS, MMS, e-Mail, or ANY type of notification pops up, the music (or any other audio) halts/stops/pauses/interrupts the music playback to prioritize the notification sound and then resumes the audio playback. I've looked at all the sound settings to see if there was a new option (headset options) to prevent this from happening but have had no luck...
Is anyone else having this problem?
The only solution I've had to work with so far is to uncheck the Play Sound box for all the notification options available in Sounds & Notifications and check the Display message, Flash light, and Vibrate options to let me know when I get a new message.
Xperia X1i
ROM Ver: 1.02.931.3

Thanks in advance peeps..

I don't think it's possible to shut this off, Sony Ericsson phones have interupted the music since the first Walkman Phone.

Thanks Burrn, but since this is now a Windows Mobile device, surely there is a registry setting that could allow for the notification sound to be heard over any already playing audio.
At least every other windows mobile device I've had does this; so if music is playing and a notification pops up, the notify sound plays right over any audio simultaneously.
In other words, right now, if I'm using Windows Media player to listen to music and I get a text, my track pauses; I hear ONLY the notify sound; and then resume the track.
I want to be able to listen to my music, get a text and hear the notify sound over the playing track without it pausing the track to notify me of the event.
If one of you experts can perhaps look into the registry settings, I'm sure there has to be a way to modify this annoying setup. I think it would to do with the headset settings since it doesn't pause my music to notify when the headset isn't plugged in; it just plays the notify sound right over the track.

Any help?
Anybody else having this issue? Any more feedback would be greatly appreciated...thx.

I encountered the same problem with my X1,can anyone please help us?

i just find that i have almos the same problem
sometimes when i plug in the 3.5mm jet and start the GS player
the song will have slight interruption like a 0.1 sec stop.
it is very annoying and i just give up to use x1 for music

Help!
can anyone look into this and help? it looks like this would make at least 3 ppl happy to resolve...thanks!

Hey togcbu, I just recently found a fix for that; but you have to know how and be willing to go into the registry; I use Total Commander to go into the registry
HKCU
ControlPanel
Sounds
InCallBuzz
open Sound (this should show notify.wma); and simply erase the sound file name and save... presto, no more annoying sound during your call when you get an SMS.

No audio after receiving incoming call - only soft-reset re-enables audio

I have this strange problem with my new Touch 2. Everything is fine till I receiver an incoming call but as soon as I receive a call all the audio on the device is "muted". I can't hear anything when I play music with CorePlayer or Windows Media Player and even that sound when changing the volume with the volume keys is "muted". The only strange thing is that I can still hear the ring tone when I get another incoming call but expect of that all other sound is gone after receiving an incoming call.
Once that happens the only way to re-enable the device's audio is to soft-reset it - nothing else works. I really tried everything, putting the device to silent/vibrate and back to loud, plugging and unplugging earphones, trying to listen through earphones ... But expect soft-resting the phone nothing worked so far.
Till I soft-reset the phone all audio is gone both when listening through earphones or the built in speakers.
First I though this might be a problem with calls in general but after some testing I figured that it only occurs when I receive incoming calls. As long as I only do outgoing calls everything is fine.
I had this strange problem with both WWE Europe - 1.28.401.4 and WWE Asia - 1.28.707.3 ROMs so it shouldn't be a problem with the ROM either.
I start to think that this has to be a hardware problem with my phone (which is not even a month old lol) and that I have to re-flash the whole thing to the original German stock ROM and send it back for repair / replacement but I thought I better ask you guys on here first xD
So what do you think?
Thanks a lot for your help!

I figured this out now. I used a WAV file as ringtone and somehow the Mega didn't really like that lol
It seems that the WAV file kinda crashed the entire audio driver or sthg like that anyway I just converted my rintone from WAV to AAC now and with that AAC ringtone everything works fine now
I guess it's a bug in the Mega software cause I used exactly the same WAV ringtone on my old Trinity for more than 1 year without any problems. Probably nobody discovered this problem yet as I think normally no one would use a WAV file as a ringtone.
Anyway my Mega runs perfectly fine with the AAC ringtone now
thx

new legend ringer problem

hi, all, i have recently purchased LEGEND INDIA model rom version is 1.32.720.2 with radio 47.26.35.04U_7.05.35.26L,
ringer is becoming silent on its own, randomly, i am missing calls because of that? what may be the problem?

go to mobile network settings and choose gsm/wcdma auto ....this will fix the ringtone issue .......

You must be joking...what's the 2G/3G has to do with the ringtones ? I would try to stop the accelerometer...the one that lowers the ringtone sound when u pick it up.

Check out this thread. The issue is not because of the accelerometer
