Hi there,
as said in title; when I choose unique ringtone for contact and click on 'Save' button, phone doesn't remember it (when I go to set it again, it is set on default again).
I also tried Rings Extended app, but it's the same.
Is it known bug or are there a solution for it?
Thanks in advance.

All you need to do is go to your contacts, tap on the contact, click menu, tap edit. Find ring tone on the long list of options,tap where it says ring tone, select one from the pop-up. This same procedure is used for assigning pictures to contacts, also.
Here's a screen shot of the page you need to be on.
I think he is talking about assigning ringtones to "private numbers" and not the ones already in his contacts!
Simple solution

When you get one of the calls, Private Name, Private Number...just add it to your contacts, then set a ringtone for it.
Simple solution.

It may be a complete shot in the dark, but have you tried adding a registry entry for "UnknownCaller"?? e.g.
Code:
HKCU/ControlPanel/Sounds/[b]Unknown[/b]CallerRing0/
You might need a soft reset or power off to force that key to be re-read by the phone service (Cprog.exe)....
Give it a try, what's the worst that can happen

u could go 3rd party and use something like photo contacts pro

I have the song Dil Diyan Gallan ringtone[/URL] for you to reference and install. Here are some other ring tones you have installed: Ringtonedownload.in/
Fellow Friends!
I need some help. I've lost my ringtone on my trinity. Not that I've lost the actual file, i'ts still there. When I enter Settings->Sound & Notifications, I can still Pre-listen/Define the ringtone but when I get a call theres no sound.
The same thing happens when my fon is set to vibrate, then it simply don't vibrate.
I have this idea that it may be some Regitry settings but i have no idea where to look?
Thanks
Hi i cannot set custom ringtones for my contacts on mts. I come from a g1 had all my contacts on google and everything sync ok with my contacts i just cannot set custom ringtones. I am using mp3's for the music and ringdroid to cut the songs. One song has worked and that was only to set my default ringtone
it took me a while to figure this out, i also came from the G1. all you have to do is go to contacts, just touch the name you want to change the ring tone for(not long press) and scroll down and you should see the option of ring tone in there
Yeah, strangely enough it is not an option while "editing" a contact. Yet only when "viewing" contact details. Strange.

a way of setting tones for multi contacts
I found while browsing my sd card with Astro file manager that if I started playing the song and paused it, then hit the menu key it would come with "set as ringtone" touching that would bring up choices of Phone ringtone, Contact ringtone and Notification sound. selecting contact lets you assign multiple contacts at once. just remember to hit save in the lower left corner of the screen before exiting... wife was getting irritated because "it wasn't working after many tries" because she didn't see the save button

thanks for the info...one issue i hope you can help with tho: once you have changed the contact's ringtone, does it stay changed or does it revert back to the default ringtone at some point? also, what is the speed of the sd card you are using? i ask bc lots of people have issues with the phone not doing ringtones properly. some say its the speed of the sdcard and some also say you have to create ringtone/notifications folders (via astro or some other file explorer) and place your sounds in there. i know on my mytouch3g with stock sd card (speed 2), individual ringtones never worked properly. only custom notifications and phone ringtone worked...
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.
I have a stock Nexus 4, currently with Android 4.2.2. I haven't yet installed the new update.
One of my Contacts is "Block," to which I add incoming calls that I want to block, such as telemarketers. When I set it up, I changed the ringtone for that contact to "None," so that it would not ring, or rather, that I would not hear the ring.
Today I learned that the device will not save "None" as a ringtone choice. I change the ringtone to None and click OK, but when I check the ringtone again, it has reverted to the default.
When I tested the function by changing the ringtone to the next option on the list, "Andromeda," it retained that setting. The problem appears to be isolated only to the ringtone "None."
I would appreciate any suggestions how to get it to save that ringtone, or alternately, how else to banish unwanted callers. Many thanks.
Maybe create a custom ringtone with nothing but silence, copy it your phone, and use that as a default for the blocked calls?

Thanks. I was thinking of a version of that - creating a silent custom ringtone and renaming it to one of the ringtones that functions (like Andromeda or whatever), which I don't use anyway. I think I'll try your way first.
There's always the coward's way out - if I get too frustrated I'm just going to reset everything to factory default and start adding apps again slowly.
Thanks! Season's greetings :good:

HI,
Can you just send that person or entry straight to voicemail instead of worring about the ringtone? Usually telemarketers wont leave voicemail.
