I want to know if anyone else with a focus has this issue. when i select a contact and give them a specific ring tone it does not ring that tone and only the default one that is selected. anyone have this issue? i have installed the chevron ring tone for mp3's and want to know if this created the issue because i did not test it before this?
thanks
I got it, u have to change the ringtones on both linked contacts

Is there a way to assign ringtones based on category with the HTC Wizard (IE: Friends get ring1, family gets ring2, business gets ring3, etc.)? I have found a way to assign the ringtone for each specific contact, but that can be a pain when you have a large number of contacts.
Thanks in advance,
You can do that with Photo Contact Pro!
I don't think it is possible in default WM5
Doesn't mortring do that, free?

How did you do that?
shdwphnx, How did you assign ringtones by contacts?
Thanks

Edit your contact, and scroll down about 75% of the screen - there is a Ringtone option there. At least there is on my US T-Mobile MDA.
BTW, which field is used in Outlook for Ringtone? Perhaps it would be easier to assign the ringtone on PC and then sync it?

I just found Mortring, and it is unfortunately currently not compatible with WM5.

As far as I have been able to determine, the Ringtone field is not transferred to Outlook on the PC.
Hopefully Mort will update his program, or someone else will release something similar for a reasonable price. (I found a few such as Photo Contacts Pro, but they all have lots of features I don't need, and am not willing to pay for).
There is a nice app that does excactly that, i've tried it out on my k-jam and worked very well, assigning ringtones to groups and even sms tones to groups or individual contacts and still keeping the default sms notification tone!
However (there always are howevers)
Before installing the app, when i would receive an incoming call and just wanted to silence the ringer, not reject the call i'd simply slide the volume button up or down and the ring would stop.
After installing it i could no longer silence a call by the volume button, therefore my only options where to answer it or reject it.
I contacted their support team and was told that it's not possible to silence the ringer as the app's ringer is controlled by the system volume, not the phone volume..
If you're quite happy not having the option to silence the ringer of an incoming call, then i recommend trying this app.

anyone know if its possible to customize ring tones for each caller
Oh man...
Edit contact and set another ringtone in "edit" window.
Has anyone else encountered this issue? I have one ringtone for all calls and then assign different ringtones to different contacts. Only some of the custom ringtones will ring when they call other times it goes to the default. I've confirmed that the ringtone is assigned to the right contact and even tried to use ring extender program but it's sporadic.

Search a little and youll find that everyone has already encountered most of the issues
I actually replied to that thread. I wasn't asking how, I was checking to see if anyone had the same issue with personal ringtones not working for all contacts.
has anyone had any issues with assigning a different ringtone to a specific caller from your people list? i know we can't do custom ringtones yet, but i'm just trying to set up different ringtones to differentiate from callers and everytime i assign one and hit save, it doesn't seem to take affect. whenever they call it rings whatever my default ringtone is.
any suggestions or similar cases?
I haven't had any issues with the ringtone not changing. Does it change and then revert back for you or just never change in the first place? Try rebooting the phone and seeing if you are still having an issue.

assign it to the mobile number or home number not the account.. i.e. go to the account edit the mobile number account or which ever number account you want to change the ring tone and select a ring tone.

i couldn't figure out the problem until i came to this thread. thanks
Looked at every thread in Q&A and didn't see anything addressing this. While I can set a default ringtone, I can't set a specific ringtone for each contact. In the Contact Details screen, there's an Options/Ringtone that you can click, but changing it doesn't do anything. Anyone figure this out or is it just a bug?

I can on mine, I just select the contact, and LOOK AT BOTTOM OF CONTACT INFO, I can assign a SPECIFIC ringtone to that contact ONLY...
if this option is not there by default, EDIT the contact and the option might appear at bottom of contact info...
I have my wifes number set to tone locs "Wild Thing..."
It looks like the problem was that I was syncing contacts from TMobile. For whatever reason you can't modify the ringtone, not sure if this is only a problem with Tmobile syncing or all syncing. You also can't modify ringtones on the TMobile website. So I exported contacts to my SD card, then imported back in. Now it works.
