Hi, I apologise if there were repeated post of this..but I cant seem to find it..
Anyway.. is any1 experiencing sms alert problems? ie. the music will not go away even after unlocking the screen and reading the sms. it only ends after the whole song.
Assistance will be very much appreciated. Thankies!
You need to trim down the file. Your notification is a whole song so thats what it plays. Use mp3 trimmer or google it.

Search google for a mp3-wav converter, cant remember which one i use but will update post when i get home and check.
Remember also a mp3 song converted to wav form will be a very BIG file, better to sample just a small ( very small ) section of the track and then use this for sms notifications.
There is a program called phonealarm that you can use, you can choose any sound you like for SMS.
First post....hello everybody.

I use Audacity (free) to edit MP3 first by selecting the part of the song or clip I want to use as a alert. Then you can remove one channel (right or left) which cuts down the size quite a bit. As far as I know all PPC speakers are MONO so there is no need for a stereo ring-tone or SMS alert. You can also change the bit rate but don't go to low or your sound will be distorted. Audacity also allows you to adjust the volume of the output alert so you can have a nice loud sound and attract allot of attention when you pull your phone out. LOL.
Also Remember that a SMS alert is (I think) shorter than a ring tone alert. (ring tone alert is between 30 and 35 seconds) I wont get my 8525 till Monday but I have a E-TEN M600 and I believe the length of the SMS is the same as the 8525/Tytn.
One thing to note: you can mute a ring-tone when someone calls but I have not found a way to mute or stop a SMS alert when it comes in.
After you have the perfect RT/SMS alert as a MP3 find a free app out there that will convert it to a .wav. I use a app that came with Nero.
You can also try Ringo. This is a app that will allow you to assign a different sound to any incoming sms message.
ie. I get a traffic update via SMS everyday before I go to work and I assigned the sound of tires screeching and horns blowing impatiently as my SMS traffic alert.
randomly my ringtones will stop working. i dont have the volume on mute. i have to either go into the sounds menu and select a different ringtone and then go back to the one i was using or do a soft reset. its kind of annoying to do so. i just got my wing yesterday and ive had this happen to me twice now. has anyone experience this problem? also i was wondering if there is a way to stop the SMS/MMS ringtone from playing the whole ringtone even if i dismiss the message? i know i can just make the ringtone shorter but if there is a way to stop the ringtone, id much rather do that. thanks in advance.
I have this same problem with my t-mobile wing when I use an mp3 for sms tones, after a few messages it goes silent, I tried placing mp3 in windows folder but eventually it still goes silent, hopefully someone has a fix
yes exactly. only when I use a mp3 is when this problem occurs. hopefully there is a tweak or something to fix this
anyone have a solution?
i have the same problem and i've been having to do soft resets...pain in the butt
has anyone came up with an answer to this problem? i lived with it when i first got my wing, but now it has caused me to miss a few important text messages and what not from my girlfriend and other people.
I placed my .mp3 file in the windows folder and hit refresh then closed file explorer and assigned that .mp3 to my messages. It worked for a while but eventually it still goes silent so this is just a longer temporary fix. I'm still looking for a permanent fix

mine is saved to the phone. its the only way the ringtone will show up in the ringtones list for me to choose it.
It Think That It Might Be A Reg Tweak For This Ill Do Some Looking Around After I Get Outta Work
Same here...
I have the same problem as well. I've searched for registry fixes but I've found none. I've converted all of my sms rings from .mp3 to .wav and i haven't had a problem since. But .wav takes up a lot more space. Is this a problem with any other roms or just the t-mobile stock rom.
oh i didnt think about changing them to wav. ill try that.
what did you use to convert to .wav?

Cheetah Audio Converter for your pc. Move them to your desktop with ActiveSync, convert them, then copy them back.

i use audacity to convert to wav and to chop the songs up. anyways using wav instead of mp3 has seem to solve the problem!
Hi
I have searched but did not find a good answer or solution, how in hell can I listen to music with vibrate mode? it's very annoying that I can't do it, for example when I have many people around me for example at the train, I want to listen to music without hearing the stupid ringtone come through the speakers even when I use the handsfree I get the ringtone direct in my ear and the speakers, why? any solution? I think maybe the problem is Windows Mobile but there must be a way to fix this...
I have found a solution for this, but you will have to use a freeware app called G-Profile.
Install it
Create a profile called Music (or whatever)
In Type choose: Program Based
Choose your Music Player in "Execute"
Change the Notifications: For instance: Phone: Incoming call, choose "Vibrate"
Quick and dirty tutorial, but try G-Profile, get the hang of it and you'll be glad you did.
thanks working
i just have a silent ringtone lol
Apologies if this has been asked but I've not found a thread so far for this problem.
I am using rom 1.61 and recently decided to add different ringtones to my most common contacts. The ringtones are just normal MP3 files, eg some are songs, some are stuff like TV theme tunes etc. They all play perfectly in any of the media players like coreplayer etc.
But when any person with a personalised ringtone calls me, I get no ringtone at all. The phone vibrates, and the speaker is on & volume turned up, but no sound plays.
Anyone know if this is a fault, or is there a setting I have missed or something?
Thanks
Jim
i had this problem with the same rom but i found that setting the ringtone through file explorer seemed to sort it out
Don't think that will help will it mate?
You can only set the current overall ringtone like that, and the problem I've got is that ringtones set that are different for various people do not play.
Actually, I just found something out, that when I've set these personalised ones for different people it has set itself as a default tone just to vibrate.
I've changed it to a proper ringtone now, but I'll have to get a friend to call me to see if this works now. I have a suspicion there's more to it than this......
Bump! Anyone?
all my music works find but as soon as i put this other album it crashes, when playing music it has that little loading circle then spinning but when it stops the music stops! is there anyway to stop make this album work on the phone?
any1 no how to fix this?
Joe,
I don't have the answer to your question. However there are a lot of threads on here in a similar vein.
If you look through them you may find what you are looking for.
