Hi guys...
i've been experiencing a few software problems on the phone. can you check this out for me...
I have all my sounds set to different ring tones.. ie. phone ring is dog bark. reminder is alarm 3. new message is something else..etc.
Everything remains fine... until a reminder goes off for an appointment
Whenever i make an appointmentwith a reminder and it then goes off, it plays the pre-installed default sound instead of the one i've chosen. What it also does...is it then resets ALL of my sound settings including my phone ring, my new SMS sent, my wake up alarms to the original default sounds. WTF?
After 7 hours of trying different things..I've narrowed it down to the reminders. so.. no reminders = i keep my sound settings...and i can't stand the preset bank of sounds the TYTN came with. grr.
Can you verify that for me please? is it a software bug? I'm in montreal this week getting married (YAY) and so i'm going to be away from my machine and cant afford to do a hard reset and lose all my contacts).
Thanks In Advance
Cheers.

PS.
Also, anyway to set all sounds to go to the storage/my documents/my music folder instead of the internal windows "ring" folder? i'd love to know how to edit this in the registry (i'm sure it can be done), and use this folder for all my reminder/alarm/msg/ring sounds...Its just I have no experience in hacking the registry or know where to begin looking.
thanks
If this is documented somewhere I can't find it in the WIKI or using the search tool. There's a few differences between WM5 on my Treo 700wx and my 8525. The first I've noticed is that there are fewer system events for which ringtones can be assigned. For example, on my Treo I could assign a different ringtone for a known caller (in contact list) and an unknown caller. On the 8525 all incoming calls are treated the same. Is this something I just need to live with? Also I've loaded several ringtones to my 8525 and they all appear for selection when assigning one to a specific contact or when defining default tones for phone functions. However, they don't appear in the list available for selection for other events, i.e. - I'd like to assign one of my downloaded ringtones to play when a new text or mms message arrives. They're all stored in the same place as they were on my Treo. Again, is this just a limitation I need to live with? Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
Hi people, I've an HTC TP2, and I was trying to set a ringtone for a callers group. I've seen there's not this capability...
Is there a software that can do it?
tnx in advance, Giovanni

I need this also, or at least - on my treo 700wx with WM5 and treo pro WM6.1 I had known and unknown caller rings
I use Pocket Informant and it allows you to assign ringtones to groups by filtering your contacts via category, then selecting all contacts and assigning a ringtone to them all.
It's a handful of clicks but I don't do it every day so find it quite useful
Beh, I could try to develop it... Anyone wants to help me is welcome!
Do you know where contacts are stored?

Search for MortRing. I've been using it since my Prophet days...
In TP2, TF3D needs to be disabled to find the icon in home... I didn't understand also where to add categories...
Is there something more update?
tnx

Yes, initially when u set up mort-ring, you have to disable tf3d. categories are defined in your contacts list. If you set "A" as family, "B" as work etc, it'll appear in mortring.
After you set up mortring, you don't have to touch it anymore. It'll run in the background hidden behind tf3d

Unfortunately, it's not free...
you can assign specific rings tones for specific contacts as a built-in feature.. but i am not sure about the call groups

Fortunately, Tone Manager is You can use it to assign a ringtone to all entries belong to a Category.
To set a contact to Category on TP2, you need to edit your traditional Windows Mobile Contacts and not your TF3D interface. The most direct way is by:
Start > All Programs > Contacts
Note you can assign a contact to more than one category.
If you have opened your entry using address book from People tab, you can access Contacts by clicking "More" at the bottom of the entry.
An alternative is to your Contacts in Microsoft Outlook on your computer, then sync it back to the device.
hi
Freeware vipringtone does this job excellently, category, individual contact ringtones etc,. Just a search away from you. if you couldn't locate it, send me msg and I'll post the cab. Been using it since WM5 to WM6.5 works fine.
hi everybody. since i got my Hero I'm facing with a many problems: one is I can't assign ring tones to my contacts. i was trying any ring tone from my music, from zedge download, but useless. in contact details is showing the chosen ring tone, but when is calling it will ring default! any advices? does somebody facing with this problem? there is any possibility to be a hardware issue?
I've had this problem. the contact number has to be in the same format as the hero shows for incoming calls
if you have the # as (xxx)xxx-xxxx then change to xxxxxxxxxx no () no - then it should work. Worked for me.

THANKS a lot dude !!!!!1 You have no idea how long time I spent looking for this issue !!!!!
Big question...
I'm using Priv (with Marshmallow) and after setting a custom ringtone for individual contacts, it doesn't work.
Funny thing is, the setting for a general ringtone works normally.
So, I've set the ringtones in Contacts - Edit - Set ringtone - Selected and confirmed (the preview plays normally).
When I get a call from that person it just plays the general ringtone and not the one set for the contact. I don't have any phone contacts or SIM contacts, they are all from Google.
I've also tried clearing cache and data for Contacts, restarting the phone ... and I've run out of ideas.
Help me please!
