CM9 Ringtone Problem - Optimus One, P500, V General

I have a strange problem regarding CM9. Currently am on hephappy's TinyStream flashed over TinyLight. Everything seems to be working well.
However, when I attempt a clean flash (wiped EVERYTHING) to TinyStream my problems begin. I can restore all my contacts with TB and set a default ringtone thru settings but can NEVER set ANY custom ringtone for my wife, son, and various friends that had custom ringtones set in previous ROMs (CM7 and some ICS as well). In fact, when trying to set the custom ringtone none of the options (including default) are highlighted/selected. When I do select a ringtone it never saves it. When said person calls I then get no ring-tone at all, and only know there is a call because the phone is vibrating. Attempting to reset the ringtone results in the same uselessness. I also experienced this with Arjen's Alpha 3last night. What could I be dong wrong?
I had no problem setting custom ringtones in any CN7 ROMs, Lupo's ICS build or TinyLight. My workaround has been to flash TinyStream over TinyLight. The custom ringtones I want are set fot various contacts BUT NOW THOSE CAN"T BE CHANGED EITHER. That;s OK for now but at some point I'll want to change them and, presently, I can't.
Any insight is appreciated,
M.

Have you tried using Ringo? Or any other ringtone selection application...I would attempt a clean wipe on everything

[Q] Ringtone / Notification Not Changing.

This is happening to me with UnNamed, and has for a few versions.
My ringtone and notification tone does not change.
I have tried this with a fresh install of UnNamed (1.3.1 Full and 1.2.1 to 1.3.0), nothing else installed.
I have unfrozen everything.
I have done 2 clean installs of the rom (Wiped both caches)
I do not have any custom sounds for certain contacts.
I have used SQLite to look at the settings.db and the changes are being made.
Is there something I did when coming from a different ROM that is causing this? Anything else I can do other then head to another rom?
Tired of hearing the "Whistle" notification when it should be "Captains Log".
are you sure your phone has "Captains Log"? Stock rom does not, as I recall.

[Q] ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) Passion v11 Ringtones not saving?

Does anyone have the problem with the latest ICS passion rom that your ringtones dont save when you reboot? I have to set them each time I reboot my phone.
Anyone know of this or how to fix it?
Thanks so much,
Rob
I am unable to replicate your problem. I've set my settings under "Sound/ ringtone & Notifications" and reboot and they still have the same settings and ringtones.
Otherwise the only way that I believe your settings change is if you recently upgraded or that you have a bad flash. Maybe reflashing will fix this.

I'm going to assume you are using a custom ringtone. It seems to be a cm9 thing. ICS Passion is based on cm9. there are other settings that don't stick too like adb debugging etc.
No problems here. I had to reset them after flashing the new kernel, but that was about it.
I can choose my Ringtone but the settings are note saved
Same for me I`m on 1.3 ICSNexusHD2-4.0.3
I can choose my Ringtone but the settings are note saved.
only the standardringtone I choose (f.e. my own ringtone) is saved
I mark an original ringtone and tap ok, after reopen the settings the ton wasn`t saved !
Any helpfull solutions ??

[Q] Why is ICS changing my ringtone?

Hi,
ICS runs fine on my S2 (I´m on LPF right now, very stable ROM), but one thing annoys me a lot: ICS keeps changing my standard ringtone and notification by itself... it somehow seems to be connected to connecting the phone via USB in MTP or storage mode. Other users have the same problem so it´s not a phone issue, but rather ISC. Had the sam problem with a custom rom (Clean Blank Rom) so i guess it´s a core ICS problem. Tied anything, from putting the ringtones to the injternal SD or system/media and tried converting the ringtones from Mp3 to OGG ... still it changes occasionally.
Any hints on how to get to the base of this problem and solve it?
Thanks,
Kusie
P.S.: always do a full wipe before flashing a new ROM, so this is no cache issue

I was running on different ICS ROM version (all stock), but never had this issue.
ATM, I am on XWLPD and using mp3 files as standard ringtone and notification sound.
Maybe it is caused by a combination of different things, so that this issue does not affect all ICS users.

Most probably, yes... maybe it´s connected to a certain app that is causing this problem... yesterday evening I moved my current custom ringtones and notifications to /system/media/audio and deleted all other ringtones/notifications/alarms from the internal and external SD cards just to check. Did a reboot, changed the rintone and notification to my custom ones and charged the phone over night ... this morning I unplugged it from loader and checked my audio settings and:
ringtone: unknown ringtone (dammit!)
notification: Moonbeam (bummer! not my selected custom notification)
This is driving me crazy.
I´m thinking about going to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache - as this is recommended often in the custom Rom section AFTER installing a new rom to avoid troubles - only question is: will this result in any data or app loss?
EDIT: Ok I think I found the culprit: i seems my volume sceduler "Volume Ace" caused the change of ringtone and notify every time it switched to a different audio profile. Deinstalled it and all seems fine....

[Q] Phone rings once then stops ringing

I've already missed a few calls because of this... I'm running resurrection remix with fluxxi. I recieve calls fine and the call itself is fin, but it only rings once and wont loop the sound file. I tried to look for a setting in the system and and R-RoM settings and found nothing. Any suggestions?
Have you tried a different ringtone? Could be a bad file

it doesn't work with any of my ring tones.
I can't seem to find a solution anywhere else other than, make a new audio file and loop it yourself then set that as a ring tone...... Not really much of a solution
Did you do a whip after you loaded the room? Tried a different one?

I'm guessing you got auto-corrected and meant wipe and rom.
I wiped before I installed the ROM including dalvik cache and data.

I had this problem when I switched from GB to ICS. This is how ICS works with ringtones from what I found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26632972&highlight=ringtone#post26632972.
To make my ringtone loop, I did this on my Linux system:
mpg321 custom_ringtone.mp3 -w raw && oggenc raw -c "ANDROID_LOOP=TRUE" -o custom_ringtone.ogg ; rm -f raw
The custom_ringtone.ogg file is what you move to your phone and set up as your ringtone.

I have been on ICS for a long while now, going back and forth from rom to rom without any issue with ringtone. It was only when I flashed SlimICS that the issue arrose, other people have mentioned it in thread but no solution as far as I could see last time I checked.
Just got back from a week away so need my weekly fix of trying some new roms anyway

Maybe it depends on the ICS you're using - I went from AT&T GB to AOKP ICS, the ringtone repeated fine on AT&T GB but not on AOKP ICS.

is there a solution for this?
i have had this issue for about 3 months, and i haven't dealt with it until now. it's a consistent issue on all my recent ROMs including BAM, Slim, CM10, CM10.1, SuperNexus, etc etc, multiple versions of all. the "rings once" issue has been perfectly consistent on all these.
someone suggested that JKays Kernel cleaning script may have had a hand in this, but i am not sure about that... i used that script before w/o issues.
why would this issue come up and never get fixed upon flashing new ROMs (after all the wiping/resets, cache & dalvik cleaning, etc.)?
any ideas? this is for ROM-included stock tones or custom ones in any format.

The first page shows a solution
This is just a guess but I'm going to run under the assumption that the people having this issue are using a mp3 as a custom ringtone. mvi57 posted a solution to this in post #8, which is to convert it to an Ogg Vorbis file and add the tag ANDROID_LOOP with the value set to true.
For those who don't have Linux, you can achieve this by using any of the various audio file converters out there that support ogg. I personally use Audacity, but use whatever you're comfortable with.

it does it on my mp3 ringtone, and it also does it on all the others included with the ROM.

Custom ringtone not working

I have a P769 running AntonX's CM11 build. Since the last time I flashed ~4-5 weeks ago I haven't been able to set a custom ringtone. I tried setting it with ES File Explorer and it shows up as 'None' in the sounds sub-menu. I tried renaming one of my custom ringtones to match a stock one and it just plays the hangouts video call sound.
Something that might be related to this is that my music does not show up since I flashed on Google Play Music.
I found this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...ing-on-device-file-explorer-in-android-4-4-2/
It describes what I'm experiencing. I tried flashing AntonX's latest build (4.4.4) and the problem still persists.I really want my custom ringtone and notifications to work. I tried searching this sub-forum for something related and I couldn't find anything. I'd appreciate any help.
Also, I can't post the problem in AntonX's CM11 thread because I have less than 10 posts. And I might try Nameless ROM because I've heard good things about it.
Thanks.
