Does anyone know of a contact manager that I can set up so that certain contacts always ring? Like if I want my phone to be on silent or vibrate, but I want it to always ring if my boss calls.
I believe if you place the contact in your VIP group it will ring regardless of the current setting on your phone. At least that is how it works on the MT4G.

HI
Just wonder if anyone could tell me how to individualise the ringtones for different callers? Most mobile phones can do it now allowing the user to put a particular ringtone for a particular call number coming in and I suppose a complicated pda phone like the xda can do the same or am I wrong?
Cheers

Hit the PM-button undeneath this message and tell me your e-mail address, and I'll mail you software for personalised ringtones.
I have the Motorola Photon 4G, and the one thing I miss about my LG Rumor 2 (Yes, very old) is the ability to set a custom vibration for SMS, MMS, Calls, Email, and other various things. I also miss being able to give contacts certain ringtones. Like for my GF it would play a melody and when my Mom or Dad called it would play a siren. Is there app or mod that can do this for me? I would still like to use the stock dialer and contact manager though.
Any help?
You should be able to set a ringtone for each contact in the Contacts manager. That will apply for the calls from each person.
This app will allow you to set a tone for incoming text messages and the "Plus" version of that app will work for text and MMS.

For ringtones, make a new file in your sd card called ringtones, put the ringtones inside and set it from your settings>sound
For vibrations, I'm not sure.
This will only work for ringtones, not message tones, Unfortunately.
Are there any other apps out there people would like to recommend?
,ake a folder in sd card with the name ringtones and put all ur custom rings in there .den u can hav em and about vibration i guess there is no such way....there are sum apps available which just sets the vibration times...
Dear All,
Does anyone know how to adjust some setting to make the text message alert happen more than once?!
It must surely be possible if the inferior iPhone does it!
Many thanks
Go SMS gives you that option and a ton more.

The stock messaging system IS pretty awful. It's a shame they didn't put more thought into it.
I use GoSMS myself. It has settings for setting up reminders.
Is there anyways to have motion work with GoSMS?
Thank you all - I'll have a look at GoSMS
If you want to use the stock messaging service, and you still want to receive motion alerts and whatnot from your phone. I have been using this app called Easy Reminder. It seems to do exactly as I had hoped, it will give you a reminder tone, or vib whenever you have missed sms. There is also configuration for missed calls. Again, this is if you would like to retain stock functionality but just want missed call and sms reminders.
Also one motion feature will alert you when you pick the phone up if you have missed events.

Hello all, I am wondering if I can have select notification/message tones for my Razr 912. I know how to select ringtones for people, but can it be done for the other. I am NOT rooted, and have OTA 4.0.4
I did use the search, and didnt see the question asked for the Razr. Links and advise are greatly appreciated or an answer telling me why I cant do it would end this curiosity.
Thanks in advance
Questions belong in Q&A
Are you talking about distinct notification tones for each app (like one tone for email, another for Facebook, another for texts, etc.) or for different people (like one tone when this person texts me and another tone for when that person texts me)?

I think this is the Q&A forum. Anyway. You can set a distinct notification for each app by going into their settings. As far as contacts go I use Ringo lite from play. You can set individual ringtones and notifications for each contact.

If you install 'rings extended' https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.angryredplanet.android.rings_extended&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5hbmdyeXJlZHBsYW5ldC5hbmRyb2lkLnJpbmdzX2V4dGVuZGVkIl0.
and then go back in to gmail etc.. you will have the option to use rings extended then choose 'select music (rings) you can choose any file on your phone to set as your ring tones
or
install zedge and then download any tones etc.. from there and you have an option again to set it
Finished setting up my new V10 and I just noticed that all contacts have a main ringtone 'af_failure' which is barely audible. Worse is that I cannot edit the ringtone in each contact for some reason. Contacts are from Google and Exchange, ,and both are affected. Only work around I found is turning on Ringtone ID which selects a different ringtone that I cannot find how to change. The default ringtone in Settings> Sounds is VZW Airwaves (for now at least). Thanks
PS It's my first LG so...
My first LG also. I have no issue editing my contacts ring tone.
Fixed it. I simply had to go in the sounds choose a new ring tone, then select the one I wanted. All contacts now have the default. Kinda weird but as long as it works now
