XDA II: Assigning different ringtones to different contacts

Does anyone know if this can be done on the XDA II?

One of the third party software that I used for this purpose is MTUX RintoneX. Have a look at www.mtux.com

Like Chriswo I too use RingToneX to add that missing feature of user assignable ringtones to my XDA II. It's isn't freeware but it does work well and is easy to use.

Any sign of a freeware application to do this simple task alone anyone?

RinTonex
Dear Criswo and Ednap,
to use RinTonex did had to unistall the IA software or can you get the picture from the IA SW and the ring from RinTonex?
Thanks!
Chris
P.S.: also, have you tried other appications for this purpouse? Why do you think that RinTonex is better than the other available...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=522&highlight=

IA Caller ID doesn't need to be uninstall. RingtoneX can work on top of IA Caller ID after all, one sees the numbers and find the matching PHOTO, and the other sees the number and find the matching Ringtone. They can work together.

THANK YOU!!!
WOW!
This is what I wanted to hear!!! :lol:
I wasn't sure both SWs could see the caller at the same time!
I undestanding you have used this combination and it worked! :wink:
Thanks!
Chris

Exactly like chriswo says, they can work side by side and all OK

does ne 1 have the serial for ringtonex ???

plz don't post keygens & hacks on this forum.
There are other places for them, and nobody wants to risk the closing of this one.

Time and Place for everything. I am sure we all might know places to get keygens and hacks for various needs.
However, this forum is NOT the place for it. There are other places to post that.
A moderator should remove the postings as soon as possible.
There is no other place even remotely like XDA-Developers. To get it shut down because somebody has no class would be really pathetic.

Give Phonext a try, it is free and does what the OP wants: assign a ringtone to a contact. You'll find it here:

Although the website states it is for PPC2002 it runs on WM2003 on my MDA I.

Ok, sorry

Phonext on my SX56
I can't run the "SetupPhonExt_PPC2002.exe" on my XDA. is it because its the ATT version? I unlocked it by switching to PPC2002 w/ the unlock in the ROm, then reflashing w/ WM2003. I copied the file over, and it can't install. Is there something i'm missing? It says it is not a valid application.

Thinking of defecting........

Hello Mini users,
I'm thinking of defecting from the Exec (Universal), for reasons that you have all probably heard before.
I have a quick couple of questions if someone could be so kind:
- is the 'xda mini s' the newest version?
- are there any rumours it is possibly to be replaced by something better in the coming months? ie updated version
- are there any glaring bugs? I am NOT a techy, and will only be using phone / contacts / diary / email / internet / porn :wink: / music / games / tomom (is it normal TT5?) etc
- is active sync the same as on the exec? ie syncing with my exchange server?
- does anyone want to buy my as-new exec??
Thanks guys
HPJ

I'm thinking of defecting to the Mio Such a hard decision

Hilarious mate, love it! Esp porn-on-the-pod!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

:?: can anyone give a quick answer to my questions? please?!

There will be a newer/better/smaller/faster version of all our phones in the next few months. It is the nature of the business.

Do it, defect from the exec.... i did and haven't looked back.....
the mini s is the latest xda at the moment.... but as has been said previoius, it'll be replaced in a few months, as will all our phones.... the xda 2 is still a popular handset due to all the hacking available for it as will be the same with the mini, exec, blue angel etc etc.....
no mater what xda you have, there'll always be something new being developed for it.....
good luck
EDIT:
As for the active sync thing, that is a feature of activesync itself, not the device, they are both wm5 so will work in exactly the same way as the eec does.....
any other questions, justreply or pm me

Orange SPV M600

is the Orange SPV M600 the Prophet ?
http://www.trustedreviews.com/article.aspx?art=2721
It's all so confusing .. all these makes ...
Cheers
Rich

SPV M600
Yes the Orange SPV M600 is the HTC Prophet.

I'm wondering, is MDA Compact 2 the only Charmer around? Most device that look like Magician is either a Magician or a Prophet.

Seems so. Check the wiki

Yes, the MDA Compact II is the only Charmer and imo most likely will be the only Charmer now the Prophet is out.

Sorry to go off (my own) topic ... but by what name does the HTC call the O2 Atom ?
I cant find it on that wiki
Cheers
Rich

The O2 Atom is not an HTC phone, that's why you can't find it!

Now if you'd have gone to the main page (or I'd have just posted this link) http://wiki.xda-developers.com/ you will see a reference to the Atom

So .... the O2 Atom that looks like this ....
http://x.msmobiles.com/portal/images/o2/o2-xda-atom.jpg
is made by by the Taiwanese company Quanta Computer
Thats just plain craaaazy! (but true)
Thanks
Rich
PS. do a google image search for 'HTC Athena' and you'll see why I thought the Atom was made by HTC

The concensus seems to be that the HTC Prophet was in its early development known at the HTC Athena

If you look at this image, you can see that Atom is not a 'Magician' type, it seems much smaller. I wonder why doesn't HTC sue them for .. design copyrights.

V1640 today plugins

Hi.
I want to use the today plugins off the v1640 ROM but on a QTEK ROM - does anyone know which files I need off the Voda ROM to get it working on the QTEK one?
I've had a look but can't spot anything.
Cheers,
Smiffy.

Look at the ext-ROM of this ... ... v1640 ROM and determine (smart guessing) the CAB files that is responsible for the plugin. just copy this over to your phone and install it.

Tried that and not had any success yet - anyone else know?

Just for more info - I've run every single file in the extended_rom of the v1640 on a qtek ROM and these haven't been added.
So the question now is, what kind of files am I looking for in the base rom and how do i register them to appear in the list of possible plugins?
Cheers,
Smiffy.

Just in case anyone is interested, I managed to work out what files and registry entries were needed to get these working on other ROMs.
It would be handy actually to be able to put these in a cab file - are there any idiot's guides for doing this?
In the meantime, if anyone else wants to know, reply to this or PM me

You just list the registry stuff here and the necessary files, someone (or I, if I have the time) to cook up a CAB for you.
BTW, good if you can include a screen shot of this wonderful plugin, to get attention

Sorry, can't do that - the techy in me won't allow me to let someone else do it for me Just give me a name of some software and i'll go and work out the rest ;-)
If it takes me too long, I might give it up though and post 'em ;-)
Ta,
Smiffy.

Could you please post a screenshot of that Today plug-in ? I'm a bit curious as I, for many reasons, switched my SFR/Vodaphone v1640 straight to WWE ROMs when I got ahold of it and I didn't think I might have missed something actually good.
Thanks !

Let's just remember that I never said it was good, just something I wanted in case you're all completely under-whelmed
It's just different plugins for messages and calendat entries and they're icons...maybe I just wanted to be different
Here ya go
And just so you know, despite the plugins and wallpaper, this is the QTEK rom

No, you're right, it's actually quite cool... Even though I'm not sure I'd see much of these icons in TrueVGA...
Thanks for the screen-shot. I wouldn't mind if you posted your manipulations here, too.

Not sure I understand what this thread is all about? It seems to have been posted today (or have I got this wrong?) but points to software which has been being used for months and referred to in various threads?
Is there something I am missing here or have you actually published an .ini file somewhere which lets users use all those icons (by pointing the iTunes icon to windows media player etc)? Or have you managed to get the sking to run on start up or have you managed to get the slider to hog less memory?
Please tell us what is going on in this thread!
