Is there a way to stop the "fade in" in the beginning of the ringtone. I do not like it's implementation. It is kind of too fast and the effect is annoying. I see no option for this anywhere.
Seeking how to stop the increasing ringtone too
I also have the same problem (actually not a problem, just dun want it)
I find all the setting in phone but no way out
any suggest?
If you set an mp3 as the ring tone, does it still do it, I don't think mine does :/
yes, I edit a mp3 in PC and copy in i9000 then set as ring-tone, I still behave the same, sad.......
have the same problem
it was on my omnia i900 too. The modding community managed to tweak it away, so its only a matter of time before you can get a small tweak to turn it off.
But I believe that Samsung made this a feature (i read it somewhere long ago) in that sometimes people have just finished a call and the phone is still next to the ear, they might receive another call (with the phone still next to their ear), with the fade in feature, the ringtone wont blast into the persons ear which can cause damage, instead it starts off low volume and then increases, allowing time for the phone to move away from the ear.
hope that made sense
i like it how it is, what is so bad about the volume up per ring?
at most after the 4th ring it goes to voice mail, it doesn't get that annoying
its not really a problem indeed, but I will notice a call when I at street after the ring-tone finish fade-ing, it may be the 2tnd or 3th ring of the person who call in, after I pick the phone out of my bag and looking the information who call in, it may be the 4th or 5th ring then that person may think it is no body to answer or the system make it goes to voicemail............I miss the call...........

Like most things it's called choice. I prefer no increasing ring as well.
I'd like this gone too! The fading ringtone is irritating
This also is a problem to me.
I don't understand why Samsung doesn't make this an option for us to turn the feature on or off, not to mention configurable fade-in time.
The problem is here since, I don't know, i900, perhaps?
I would also like to see this disabled. Hopefully someone will find out how to do it soon!!
Sorry to bump this thread, but I'd really like this problem solved also. Obviously there's no clear option to change this, however does anyone know where we can start looking? (ie. certain config files or similar for rooted users.)
There's still no solution?
any update on this?
have you tried 3rd party ring tones apps
those have its own way of playing sounds when a calls comes in, some replaces the stock features.
try ring extend and ringo plus and many many more
android market is full of it

Thanks AllGamer, but I've tried many apps including Rings Extended, Ringo Lite and Zedge, but they just replace the ringtone picker. No matter which app I use, I always get increasing volume for incoming calls.
P.S.: I noticed something funny: I selected a ringtone from DoubleTwist playlist using Rings Extended. When I got an incoming call, I listened to a "hidden ringtone" which is similar to the digital phone ringtone. Probably Rings Extended failed to pick a mp3 from DoubleTwist and my phone used a "fallback ringtone" (such as the Nokia Tune when you remove an sd card with your ringtone). I think it's called "832" but I can't find it anywhere!
Sigh the increasing ringer is pretty lame.
Should be optional.
still no fix huh...

Hey all. Coming from a BB 6 months ago I still find new things about the Dinc that I love. Now that I'm rooted and running a custom ROM it's even better, but there is 1 thing that is Annoying the crap out of me. I want a professional sounding ring for when I'm those business environments, but this rings like its on steroids. Why is it that when I select the stock ringtone Standard 1, this thing constantly loops when I have an incoming call. I want something that rings like a normal phone (ring..pause..ring..pause..,etc.). Is there anyway to change that? I don't really want to go find an app to do it for me. I remember seeing a thread that you can go into the menu (## and a few numbers) and change the delay of the first ring, but can you do that to space the rings apart or create a pause? Can anyone help? Thanks.
Try this ringtone. It is a old phone sound but has a blank at the end to achieve what you want
You will need to rename it to .mp3 since I changed it to txt just so I could upload it
Perfect!! thanks on the way NilsP!
If you wanted to do this with another ringtone, use Audacity and add some blank space at the end.

That's actually what I used plus Krystal does a nice job also (guitar player).
what are some good sound effect site that have free sound effects? I'm particularly looking for "artificial" sounds for button presses and scoring points (if you know what I mean)
Try the Zedge app. Has ring tones you can download to your phone. Has about every sound you can think of.

I have been using a lot of roms lately.. and loved everyones work over here except one big gripe I have.... I m sure lot of you might agree and disagree with me.. but I just want to throw it out there.
My issue is with boot animation sounds and ringtones.
CAN WE NOT CHANGE THE BOOT ANIMATIONS SOUNDS AND RINGTONES IN EVERY ROM AND KEEP IT STOCK.
and leave it at user selected ringtone and stock boot animations and sounds. And provide a separate .zip for boot sounds and ringtones if anyone wants, instead of giving them nobootanimation sounds.
I have flashed Viper roms couple of times and everytime I end up with these sounds which makes me look weird if the phone dies/rings/shuts down at work with default sounds.
I flashed synergy yesterday and today my phone rang at work and every one just gave me a glance like.."What do they call you....???" (due to the default ringtone)
Just a thought.. if it makes anyones life easier..
Thanks!
You don't like added ringtones, notifications, and alarms that come packaged with apps as well? I can understand the boot sounds, but not extra sounds that help you customize your phone.
And the custom boot animations are kind of the branding you have to deal with for using someone's work you didn't pay for. These developers work hard and most (essentially all) only get paid through donations. Having that boot/shutdown screen with their custom logo or image is their form of advertisement. I've had plenty of friends see my phone while it was rebooting or whatnot and ask what I was running. I've converted a few and brought them to the modding community =).
I guess I could understand where you're coming from if these developers forced us to pay for the product they deliver, but they don't.
In SRF:
Boot sounds: The sweet sound of silence. Ain't it grand?
Boot animations: Yeah, it's our logo... If you don't like it, flash another animation. If we didn't put in some kind of bootanimation.zip, you'd just get... crap. And how often do you reboot your phone, anyway?
Ringtones: The full stock library is there. But the default? It's a phone. Shocking.
If you ask me, a ringing phone sounds more normal than whatever crap Samsung defaults to.
make your own rom. Or customize the one you got... there's a secret sub forum called Themes and Apps.. don't tell anyone else about it, but you might want to check it out before somebody really rips you a new one..
kOnane that was a very classy retort nicely played

seriously, anyone that has a phone at work that doesn't have it on vibrate is an idiot. and that would solve all these issues. its called silent mode, best feature of the phone. maybe you guys are 16 (its a great time, so no offense) but other than that, ringtones and nonsense like that would be the least of my concerns.

These are all things well within the end users control. Just check your ringtone, that's not the developers responsibility. If you want download my midNIGHT ROM and just pull the extras folder out. I ported over the Rhodium ringtones awhile back. There are a ton of zips in there that should work on most ROMs. k0nane is right someone will always complain.......
My only complaint is loud, obnoxious boot sounds, which I havent heard in quite a while... Viper had a pretty crazy one a couple months back. not really a big deal, as I know we can change it, or just use a diff. rom... as far as boot animations, im all for them, and if people want to brand their work, more power to em.
I have a well used option in Startup Manager that dumps startup and shut sown sounds. It absolutely amazes me how many people think that devs should do whatever they demand. Sorry guys, but these are volunteer operations and they do what they want. If you don't like it vote with your feet...

Hey.
I was wondering what do you think about sound quality after latest LP update? And most important, what do you think about latest amazing retarded idea of dumping Walkman brand and making one of worst music app Sony created for past... well, they never had bad music player until now!
But before I write what I think about sound quality, I really, really need to say something about this "Music" Player.
>>Skip it if you dont care about walkman app<<
I always loved W series from Sony Ericsson, I had, and still have most of my older phones from this series. And because Im really fussy about sound quality and music player design I was a bit shocked after I saw Sony idea to remove Walkman name, and going to most lame excuse I ever read to rename app to.... Music...
I didnt install this app update when I had KitKat(dont mess with something that actually work) So after Installing LP I had time to see what they did to my most beloved app on my phone. And Im shocked how someone could destroy something with only really small changes.
At first nothing is changed, but what is most important are details.
After you open app everything is normal.
I never liked main page, its chaotic and beside good look its not usefull, but I never used it so I didnt care about it, I spend there only 1sec after opening app... untill this update...
Now everytime when Im listening something and Im clicking widget or icon, instead of going to current music player its moving me straight to main page... and to do something in actual player, I need to click lower bar to open it... annoying as hell.
Now lets look at most important part of player:
looks simple and good right? its change color depend on cover, and it have big buttons. But beside that they ripped fewparts that was good about walkman player. First of all they removed Favorite icon(star) that I, and lost of people I know liked, because it was quick way to select your favorite track. Now this option is in lame, small duplicated menu as a text.
About that menu. Why they putt menu dots in lower right corner if you can access menu just by clicking album art? I have no idea...
But thats not everything!
How about SECOND menu in top right corner!
You thought that all? HELL NO! we have THIRD setting menu!
Because Sony love Mario, and they though that it would be funny to say to users: "Sorry, but setting that you look for is in another Menu!"
So now not only they make chaos in settings, remove one of simplest fav option, but they forgot about.... simple and quick option to see current playlist. You can only click artist name to go to page of his album, or you need to swype left to select current playlist menu, that sometimes doesnt count what you selected, and sometimes add track to end of the list and sometimes to next track on the list... no one know how this "magic" work...
Now how about burying one of best option that compared to other similar options, actually work good: Sense Me playlist...
Instead of putting this option as a one of main feature, they buried it in playlist menu...
Seriously, most of similar apps that sets music by mood work weird or need weird scan everytime to play something.
Of course its not perfect but still better than others, and I never had weird track placement when I used it.
Now most important: Sound quality options.
As most of you know, they removed few important options that bump volume in our XZ, but they also messed up rest of settings.
As I mentioned they moved sound settings to weird place.
Its look simple but still its a bit pain to use it, especially Headphones option:
From this list, I have MH-EX300AP and STH30, and with or without ClearAudio+ options, settings for those specific headphones work like cra#p.
EX300 options make sound more centered and with huge boost of middle parts, and STH30 option make sound more muffed with too much bass.
Rest of options except bumping middle parts and squeezing scene to middle doesnt do anything.
<<< - End of the less important Rant about Walkman Player... sorry, "Music" Player - >>>
Now lets talk about actual quality of the sound on Xperia Z with LP.
For most of the day I use my good old JVC HA-S600 that have best quality-price-mobility ratio I ever had, but also I use mentioned before MH-EX300AP for outdoor and in home a bit used Beyerdynamic DT 770s(look like **** but sound is still amazing)
And no matter what I have on my hears, sound compared to what I got in KK is just a bit worst in LP. Its still have nice amount of details for most of time, and at least its dont sound like old radio.
But overall quality is weird, especially wide scene. I tried messing with EQ, ClearAudio+ still sound much flatter, and middle parts behave weird, when there is much going on, on the scene its lost all details and its just plain hum that sometimes move to high levels.
I have my two favorite test tracks (Aphex Twin "Vordhosbn" and Bruno Coulais "La marche" Himalaya OST ) and I know those tracks like my own hand, so after I played them on LP it was obvious for me that something is not right. Those tracks are really heavy for every headphones and player, they have all necessary parts to hear whats going on: One is loud with good amount of bass, and other is really soft and have really wide scene with different vocals. And especially in La marche you hear that now xperia is WAY flatter than before.
And as I said Im using Walkman almost my whole "life with phone", And I never encounter such problem with it.
Now I really dont know if its because of new player or because of this update.
Its not big deal, probably 90% of you dont hear any difference except loudness, but just like with camera those small changes make people crazy if they use this all the time and they know what it should look/sound.
Sooner or later Im gonna back to 4.3 but now I was wondering if its my specific xperia z got that (even if I installed LP two times for test purposes)
from my opinion.. i think my phone sounds better in LP than KK or JB.. the sound is more clearer.
BUT
At the bad side, the soubd is toooooooooo low and i hate the interface of new music player where i need to take more step than before to go to sound enhancenent.. And there is no PlayList like before.. I need to go to Music Main Menu to access all my song list... Damn Sony... Damn! return my walkman where i can choose my song to play without skipping one by one or go to main menu just to select what song do i want to hear... :banghead:

sound volume was really low on kk xp. z but on lollipop it's even worse. and yes, i miss the walkman, too.
There is a mod for sound here in the themes frame that makes the sound louder again
Well... All of you should know by now that with every update we lost some functionality from before. I noticed this on all Android phones I have had till now... ?
