Has anyone had an issue with their Ringtone reverting to the default one after a couple of days. I've reassigned the Ringtone multiple times and each time it reverts back. I check the file and the Ringtone is still there but it's no longer the default. I'm puzzled as to why this is and thought I'd throw it out there to see if anyone else had experienced this.

Nevermind....apparently the ringtone resets on reboot. Lame!!
So far, my experience is that if you Boot into CWM and clear the Cache/Dalvik then your ringtone resets back to default. I've restarted my phone numerous times and havent experienced it reverting to default, but any time i mess around in CWM, that's when it happens for me.
Just my two cents.

You can take your ringtone and put it with the ringtones with root explorer in /system and edit the build prop to see you specific ringtone as default regardless if you wipe cache

I had this happen when i used zedge, i just copied the files out of the zedge directory to a different spot then used that location to set the ringtones

I thought of that too, but this was for my boss and his phone isn't rooted. Its strange they would do this.

Hi there,
I was wondering if it is possible to set default settings i.e. ringtones, backgrounds etc?
thanks!
i think it is in the build.proc too. but i'm not sure....
Yes it is thanks!
I assume there was a typo in the 1st reply andit was really 'build.prop' you meant?
I am also trying to set some defaults in my ROM but changing the entries in the build.prop didn't change the default ringtone and notification sound. I am wondering if this is a theme thing and it gets overwritten when the default theme is activated?
I changed these lines in build.prop:
ro.config.ringtone=voodoo.mp3
ro.config.notification_sound=Weight.mp3
And neither were set in my ROM after I wiped and flashed.
Any ideas?
Andy

That is how you set the defaults. I would make sure names are correct.

That's what I thought but the mp3 files are there in the ROM and I can select them if I wish to change the sound manually - the Weight.mp3 file is a standard one that is included by default, voodoo.mp3 is one I have added. However following a wipe and re-flash the ringtone defaults to QuietlyBrilliant.mp3 and the notification to Zeta.mp3.
There must be something else that gets involved?

I've always done it that way with cm. Where are you putting your files in your rom?

I am only adding one audio file (the ringtone), the other file is one that's already in the ROM. I am adding the ringtone to /system/media/audio/ringtones.
I re-checked my syntax and that the files were all there, built another ROM and it now works. I am wondering if I didn't wipe the system properly (or at all) last time I flashed.
So anyway its working now.
Thanks, Andy

Since I rooted my notifications automatically set to silent whenever and i can no longer set the fonts. Anyone else? Any idea how to fix?

Turn the volume up and you can not use fonts with lag fix.

Volume isn't the issue. The phone will reset my notifications. I'll set a sound and a fwe hours later they are all set to silent. Only the ringer and alerts stick
Perhaps it's an app like Timeriffic that's causing it. Check your apps that could possible change the settings, if not, then you could always just make everything stock and do it over again.

Check your sounds, and messaging settings.
Many people have had this issue on stock unrooted phones running ICS (myself include). As far as I know, there is no fix to this bug. Reboot and it fixes itself for a while.

There is a fix. Root that sucker and install one of the awesome custom ROMs available here in the Android development section. Trust me it blows stock away.
Had this issue once on tasks aokp, wiped caches, nothing, full wipe, nothing, fresh install, nothing. Then a day or two later it just resolved itself. Led me to believe it's just some minor hardware issue. I've had friends have the same experience, too.
I777 gets it done, gnex just for fun
Have you tried checking the permissions of the audio files? Depending on your file/folder app (eg. es explorer), enable the option under settings for root browsing and then go to /system/media/audio/* look for your text ring tone in the notification folder and check the permissions. The audio files themselves should have a permission of user: rw, group: r, other: r. In addition the file type should be similar to those already in the directory (eg. Ogg).
I'm on a S3 though so hopefully android setup should be similar.

When I shutdown my phone or reboot it the boot tune, the one that happens when you first turn on the phone happens, then the Verizon 4g lte tune happens, finally right after that the boot tune happens again but this time MUCH louder and it loops while the phone is on infinitely, unless I pull down my notification bar, otherwise it'll play over all other sounds, and even while the screen is off.
Anyone have a fix, I'm unrooted, I have done nothing exotic to the phone, everything is stock and typical, help, thanks.

Sounds like your rom maybe a bad flash. did you take a backup of your rom ? if not there are stock ones online you can reflash with odin. what changes to the phone did you make before this started to occur ?
I'm unrooted man, so atock everything, but thanks.

Unfortunately, it sounds like a factory reset would be the only sure option... Something got screwy, but without a restore point, wiping might be the only way to fix it

Have the same problem, has any resolution been found ?
Edit : I have tried "Silent Boot" and "No Statup Sound" apps and they work once but the sound comes back.
^ another option all tho im sure this is not the op's problem:
-must have root
-install a root explorer app
-navigate to the system/media/audio/ui folder
-scroll down and add .bak to the end of files poweron.ogg & poweroff.ogg.

I have tried multiple file explorers and none of them work. Is there a free root explorer that will perform this task ?
One every 4.2.2 ROM I've notice that once an incoming call comes through the phone will ringer for about 3 seconds then the ringer goes out and continues to vibrate. I saw another post where someone said the issue is custom ringers but I'm using the stock sounds. Any idea how to fix this?

I don't have an issue with my ringers. I have custom ringers (mp3's), and system ringers (ogg's) and they all work and play for the duration of the rings. I have them all moved to my internal memory. Maybe that helps?
I'm currently on Paranoidkangdroid and I use to be on SOA, and FJ's with no issues either.

I never moved my stock sounds so they should be on the internal storage. Strange. I'm on slimbean now but its happen on other ROMs.

I am having the same problem and find it to be ROM agnostic. I have tried several different ROMS including JellyBam and Slimbean with the same problem of one ring & multiple vibrations.
The only thing I can think to try is to take the current preferred ringtone and, using an audio editor, create a new ringtone by copying the ringtone and paste it over & over (a few times) to create one longer ringtone.

I finally looped a ringtone using an audio editor. I looped it six times with 1.5 seconds silence between each ring and you cannot tell the difference between it and a properly cycling ringtone.
Would rather it worked properly, but this work around will do the trick.
