[Q] Stupid Question Time - Custom Ringtones - 7 Mozart General

Hi Guys,
This maybe a stupid question but here goes anyway...
So I've been using the Mozart since last Friday and I'm loving it. It has a pretty smooth interface and the marketplace works really well for me not to mention the Zune integration. )
However I'm either being blind or just plain stupid, how do you set a custom ringtone?
By this I mean how do I set my ringtone for all contacts to be a mp3 of my choosing?
Many Thanks
mjpringles

WP7 simply doesn't seem to support custom ringtones at the moment. The guide does mention searching in the marketplace for ringtones though.
Here: www.microsoft.com/windowsphone/en-gb/howto/wp7/start/ringtones-and-sounds.aspx

I suppose this is the price we pay for being early adopters
Let's hope they fix this soon

just got this phone yest and was about to ask the same thing! shame about this and the lack of bluetooth trnasfer

ringtones
Got mine as-well, and I must say I am not impressed about that most things are locked and you cant customize the phone.
I also would like to change ringtones...

from what i have read there is a update due out tomorrow and there may be a fix for the ring tone problem. hopefully the update is out tomorrow and we all get to see the new goodies. fingers crossed.

AP4 Beta2 Tester Feedbacks

Anyone else has no GSM receiption after flashing Beta2?
Reflashing the original vodafone ROM does not work for me as bootloader beta0.2 has a bug with USB connectivity.
Any hints for me?
No one else has this ROM, so we wouldn't really be able to help you.
Just further re-enforces the guidance we've been given to wait and see until its sorted. Thanks guys....
Well, he hasn't given ANY info at all, so it's hard to even help him. He might just be missing something inside the settings
beta 2? never heard of it. provide more info though like others have said.
i dont kow what beta 2 is either... but pk is pretty great

Don't laugh at the new guy...What is a ROM?

Alright well I got my HTC HD2 a few weeks ago, and I was searching around Google and stumbled apon xda-developers.com I found a few cool things for my phone like CHT, and a few other apps...but I dont see the big picture here. What are ROMs? Are they operating systems? and what does everyone mean by "flashing a rom" or something like that. Haha im sorry if this is in the wrong part of the forum. Could someone just enlighten me on this stuff, and maybe suggest some cool things I can do to my phone, or some apps i should get.
First off the search button is your friend ...
So I am going to give you a quick explanation and you can search and look in the various threads for your answers ....
A ROM is the the component of your phone where your Operating system and included apps are stored ...
The term ROM on this site refers to "Replacements" for the stock system that is installed on your phone, sometimes there are updated stock ROMs here too ..
There are certain things you need to know before considering flashing a ROM and you can find that info in various threads here ...
If you have a TMO US HD2 then you have to make sure the ROM is compatible, TMO US HD2 is a little different than the International one , more ram for one thing.
Now some ROMs have more things than a stock ROM some have less, it is all about personal choice when it comes down to that, some ROMS are more stable than others, some are faster, just depends ....
The Developers of these ROMs, or "Cooks or Chefs" as they like to be called, may do some serious customizing to their ROMs or leave them close to stock, again a personal choice for you ...
I would suggest you do some reading on Flashing, and about your hardware, the only problem with starting to flash your phone is, it is addictive ....
Hope this helped ....
p.s. Read Read Read, and make sure you understand what you are getting into, you can turn your phone into an expensive paperweight if you are not careful ...

Hahahahaha. You too? Yeah we got these like the week after they came out and a buddy of mine told me about this site and I've been hooked on it since. Then the GF gets mad when I'm looking stuff and chaning themes and stuff. She says that its stupid, but the second i offer to change the theme on her phone, it ain't stupid then
Didnt realize i was an addict till i saw the posting of one of your bookmark tab being this forum. :s
Now that you've mentioned it, my gf would be angry when i am with my 'gadget' cos this hd2 is like a swiss army knife for me. Using it for picts, vids, games, work, net..heck, this current hd2 doesnt even do calls. Only does my mobile broadband.
btw. there's no perfect rom.(before you ask this) The only perfect ones are the ones that you favour most.
GF is one thing, wife is another entirely.
But I agree, its not so stupid when you are improving her phone
my gf claims I'm having an affair with my phone/xda
She wants me to go "cold turkey"..... Not happening!
I'm kinda worried that when i try to type "gf" the xt9 tries to change it to "hd".....
maybe its trying to get her out of the picture....

It was your fault from the beginning to link to a chat box.
and no one forces people to download from their servers except you.(not on original)
and your website is no where near trustworthy, neither in looks or feel.
and you have like 10 posts?
what do you think should give people the impression to trust you?

over 1000 members dont have a problem with my website...and i dont care how my website makes you feel (or looks to you)

The obvious answer would be: If you don't like it, don't download it.
You make it sound as if he is forcing you to sign up with your precious email and download from his server..and when things don't turn out the way you wanted you start to insult him and his work?
Oh come on..this is no way to behave on XDA, which i have always seen as a friendly place with respectable and polite posters.
As for the fact that Darkside Agent doesn't have as high a post count as you in here is because he is fairly new to the Android modding scene + XDA. But he is quite well-known and trusted in other phone modding forums..something you could have found out if you had bothered to actually read his website a bit more thoroughly.
Goddamn, some people are just unbelievable..
Skype removed, flash player sorted so it will update..
Some more .apks removed that arent needed

So you went in to mounts and storage and clicked on format system? factory wipe/reset will not format system just in case you were unaware
I will DL and test for any bugs or issues Good luck with the ROM. It's nice to see another developer around here. I like your style. You have good taste. Don't listen to anybody on here giving pointless feedback

( question for a question ) What do you wish to do with the Nook that it is not doing yet ? There is the ( wise ) old adage, if its not broke, don't fix it !
.
Here's something you can do. Go to the front door of the Nook forum,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1394
When search is back up. I went there right now and it says :
"Search is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience."
.
Search on the term "1.43" and see what people are saying about it. Search has a cool trick where it'll show you the link to the forum post. Very nice...

I guess I will have to try out that cool search trick. You mean I just type anything in the search bar and amazing things pop up? Wow!

Not really asking you to give me a tutorial on searching. But hey that's cool! Anyway's thanks for the reply. I think. Nice Day/Night! Later major dude. I will try that search thing. Promise..

Kind of what I was going for. Alway's heard old_fart was a tough nut to crack. So thought I would give it a go. All in fun. Some people say stay with it and some people say upgrade. Just get's a bit confusing as to what you gain or lose.
But I will definitely try that Google search engine thingy I've been reading so much about.

I obviously can see the baseband has changed but what I was asking being not as clued up as you lot was what does it mean?
But forget it. I can't take a joke and am too emotional to be on the internet.
Actually I'm a 48 year old father of two wonderful grown up boys,I have no nerdy inclinations at all, indeed before I was struck down by cancer I was a self employed gardener.
I now choose to spend a fair bit of my time helping people here, but if you are so uptight you can't take a little joke, then I suspect you have far more issues than me.
're. Your responses, I won't be attempting to help you any further young man.
