Hi, i´m at 4.0.3 with AOSP contacts, and i sherched all the menus, but i didn,t found where i set ringtone to a contact group!
Anyone can help me?
Thanks!
Group ringtones
Can anyone tell me, how to set group ringtones?
I have (in contacts) a group called Coworkers with 11 contacts. I have assigned a ringtone to that group, saved it and in group the ringtone is correct.
But when I go to the contacts and look my coworker, it has the 'default' ringtone defined... not the one, which is set in group 'Coworkers'.
And also, when he call me, the default ringtone rings, not the one, which I set for the group 'Coworkers'.
I have tried with other groups also (family, friends,...), nothing... when somebody calls me, it's always the 'default' ringtone....
I have searched the Google, XDA forums, but haven't found nothing useful...
Oh, this is on my SGS2 with JB NeatRomLite v4.0....

Weird, it works fine for me, following the steps you describe. Although, the group ringtone doesn't display on the individual contact; the individual will still display the default ringtone, but for me it rang the group ringtone anyways. Every time.

I am trying to figure out how to get rid of the persons callback number in text messages(after the name, its displays (M ##########): before the msg)...
Strangely, I've noticed for some people it shows just their name without the cb# in each response(the way I want it!) though for others it shows the call back number in each txt they send....any idears?
This is what I want every txt identity to look like...for some reason this person is the only one that doesn't display the cb#

I thought it displayed the number when you had multiple contact numbers/options for the person. Can you confirm or disprove this on your phone?

This appears to be correct. I don't have email addys for most of my contacts and one that I did showed her number. I added an email addy to one that did not show number and now it does show her number. Also showing my bro's number and I have two numbers for him but no email addy.

I believe you are correct. At least that's the way it is for me as well.

Seems like thats it! Ones with no cb# doesnt have emails nor linked to facebook...
However, when I tried deleting the ones with emails/cb#'s, it wont let me...and they are the ones linked to facebook. I tried deleting them manually though wouldnt let me...hmphh might hafta do without fb links.
Started using Handcent for that very reason.
As the title states...(minus the calling capabilities of course)
Thanks for the info.

If you refer to google voice for text messages and calls and not google voice search as some people get confused, then yes it works pretty well, but for make calls it does not work with other apps like groove IP , gvoice and so because of the lack of the proper drivers for the mic and possibly speaker too.

Awesome thanks....yes I will just be using for the texting. When the NT is in sleep mode will it still notify you of an incoming message or do you have to manually check it? Also, when rooted do you get audible notifications for new messages and/or emails like you do on a regular Android tab or phone?

yes you can get audible notifications, and the notfications will not show up while nook is sleeping once you wake it up wifi will wake up too in few seconds and then you will have to wait until next refresh of google voice to check for new texts to finally show up in your notification status bar, i think it refresh every 5min but not sure and there is not option to set the refreshing time in google voice.

The only problem is that you cannot access your contacts list (since the Contacts application is not installed).

Nop, you can use your contacts while you sync them with your gmail account:

I've successfully texted using Google Voice with the NT (sent and received). I use GMail, but recently started using Contapps for viewing and text messaging/e-mailing my contacts on the tablet. It also has Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, etc integration. So far so good.
No go on the phone calling though.
Anyone find a way to have custom ringtone per contact, particularly for incoming SMS? Feel kinda silly not figuring it out..
Can it not be done through the edit contact page? That's how it is on other phones, though I don't know that I've seen a way to get custom sms notifications. Would be sweet!
Yep. Look at the contact in the People app and click on Ringtone.

Don't you guys pester my locksmith, by the way.
I did the drag-and-drop approach. Connect the EVO to your windows pc laptop/desktop using the usb cable. Wait 5-10 seconds and a “Choose a connection type” window will show on the phone screen. Select “Media sync”. Then you’ll be able to view folders/files in your phone device (like an external hard drive). Double-click “phone” folder (this is your EVO), and you’ll see various folders (Music, Ringtones, Notifications, Download, etc). You can now copy a music file or picture file stored in your laptop/desktop and paste it to one of these folders…depending on what you’re using it for. After you're done, disconnect the phone from the computer.
Go to EVO's Settings, then Sound, then Phone ringtone, and select your ringtone. (You can also do this via Music app).
For Messages app, open it, go to Menu on top right corner, then Settings, then Notifications, then Notification sound, and select your ringtone.
You can specify an inbound call ringtone per person, but this does not apply to the TXT msg settings that I am aware of.

I don't know if it works on ICS but try Ringo Lite for assigning ringtones, SMS tones and text tones.
handcent
SMS Sounds is a lightweight app that is specifically for setting SMS tones for contacts.

goto contact/edit/ringtone pick ringtone then save
for sms/mms go in to app press menu(3 dot buttons on top right)settings/notifiction/notifiction sound/choose sound you wish to use for incoming sms/mms(if your looking to individual sounds for each contact i dont believe you can do that)
With GoSMS and Handcent you can set individual sms ringtones. The third party apps provide tons of customization for messaging.

I have 2 SIP accounts set-up under the Phone app > Call Settings > Internet call settings (Account).
There are times when I pick up an incoming VoIP call (caller calls one of my DIDs associated with one of my three accounts), I pick up and the sound is routed right away to the speaker of the S3 with no option/ way to make it go back to the earpiece.
Has anyone experienced? Can reproduce?
Can someone please try and report their findings?

I use it. Always got the sound thru earpiece. Have another problem - I cannot figure out how do options of calling work: for all calls when mobile network available, only for internet calls (what is that?), ask for every call. I use the last option, but it's annoying.
That's how I use it too. Couldn't figure out "Only for Internet Calls". I don't see the option under contacts or anywhere else.
Anyone knows?
Solution is found. Try Advanced Dialer app to filter dialed numbers for SIP routing through stock dialer.

Another issue: the native SIP client does not produce any DTMF tones!
Update: Jelly Bean fixed the DTMF tones issue. It is now working.
am I reading this right that VOIP calling is built into the OS now ? if yes how do I put my GV voip account into it ? right now I use groove ip
ICS had native VoIP and a built in SIP client, so does JB.
Kudos to Samsung and HTC for not removing that from the GT-I 9300 and the S720E.
Launch phone, you should be looking at the dialpad, contextual menu 》Call Settings, scroll all the way down to the Internet Call Settings section 》 Accounts.
You can add accounts there.
Note: Google Voice is not a VoIP provider and so you can use it with the SIP client.
I use Voice+ from the market place for Google voice on the S3.

[Q] ►►► RingTone , notification, whatsapp tones auto changing to DEFAULT tone in ICS
Hi ,
I have Micromax A100 which has ICS OS. Problem is that when i set my customize tones for Ringtone, SMS, Notification, Whatsapp etc. After sometime it changes to boring stock tones. I dont understand how it changes back to default tone. I tried all d way to change but it works for 2-3 hours and suddenly changes to Micromax inbuilt ringtone.
Somebody said its because of Ram booster APP, i uninstalled that, but no use. I tried ZEDGE app to set tones but it changes auto to default after 2-3 hours. And also at the same time my MUSIC player stops recognizing MUSIC files also and it shows zero files.
somebody help me plz.
I'm attaching screenshots here.

I have it also at my Alcatel OT-997D. It is an Android bug that some companies solved it and some not. Also the Nexus phones have it, multiple HTC's, Motorola Droid etc
Re: [Q] ►►► RingTone , notification, whatsapp tones auto changing to DEFAULT tone in
I found one very simple solution... I replaced fave tone to stock tone by root explorer.. but music player stop recognising music files after sometime.
