Arlo, when will you be providing a custom doorbell ringtone option for Android? While you're at it, why not just a notification instead of a call from my doorbell, especially when I'm home? I can see this has been an issue for years. I am just setting up my system, but will be returning it if it's true that Arlo has no intention of resolving this issue. It's one thing to have good cameras, it's an entirely different matter to have a crude security system. Notification customization is a pretty simple feature to program. I look forward to hearing from you regarding this issue.
Suddenly, incoming callers do not hear a ringtone on their end anymore. Nevertheless, calls can be completed without further issues - just the calling party has the impression that nothing happes during the silence until we do pick up. Generally, my setup is working for years without such issues.
Does anyone have any further hints on how that may come about? I did try other nat settings but with no success, i.e., my ringtone packets to seem to get dropped in the critical case regardless of what I did so far.
In my examples, the call is never completed, just ringing and than hanging up. In all scenarios, completing the call does work without any issues whatsoever. The problem is just, that the calling party may not hear a ringtone presumably after a recent modification on the side of the carrier.
I tried Zedge to set a downloaded ringtone, same effect: after reboot, it resets to the default one. As a workaround, maybe there is an app that would check the ringtone after reboot and set its own one if it has reverted to the default?
A year ago, I downloaded the Garageband app to my iPhone 6S for the sole purpose of exporting a custom ringtone. I followed the instructions listed on Apple's website and then deleted GarageBand, as I no longer needed it.
I now would like to delete this ringtone. Apple's instructions say this can be done within Garageband, but after redownloading Garageband and following the instructions, I am told I have no previously-exported ringtones!
Since this was the only file I've created with GarageBand and was indeed the file I created and was the only one in the Ringtones.plist file, I deleted both, leaving the com.apple.ToneLibrary.lock file, and then checked the iPhone and the ringtone was no longer available to be selected in Contacts or System Preferences in iOS.
I left the alarm vibrating and opened the phone's volume controls; the alarm volume was on (half way on the bar) and ringtone was off. I slid the ringtone volume up and there it was, my selected alarm song was playing.
Venu 2 Plus. Before update to 9.17, when a call incoming, ringtone from phone was played on watch speaker. At the same time, vibration was constantly working. It is very comfortable. After update, an incoming call triggers one short peak and one vibro, as with a notification of a new message. I'm missing calls now. How to return everything back? Tried to change setting "System -> Sounds -> Ringtone", it does not help.
The volume in all watch settings is set to maximum. I did not change the settings, the ringtone stopped playing after updating to version 9.17. Maybe there is a possibility to rollback to the previous firmware?
Im having the same problem too, no ring tone on watch only vibration when the phone ring is on. If I turn phone to mute the watch gets the ringtone. Im sure it used to be on both at the same time. Samsung phone running android 12 and One UI4.1.
Hence, people under Work would have one ringtone, Family another, Friends a different one, etc. I get that there would be some overlap (people in two groups), but then the default would be which ever ringtone las last applied (individual or group).
I found a ghetto work-around for group ringtones on the iPhone. It's sort of annoying but once you get it set up, its easy to then change a group ringtone. You have to set the ringtone for each one of your contacts, but only ONCE, and then changing the ringtone for a group is easy. You won't want to do this unless you enjoy changing your ringtones every so often.
1. Create a custom ringtone for each group you want to set, and give it a default name that you recognize (ie "AA_Family" "AA_Friends" "AA_Work" etc). I put the "AA_" in front so it shows at the top of my ringtones list on the iPhone.
3. Now the annoying part...you have to go into each contact and set the ringtone for each one according to the group they belong to. I know, this sucks. But I have about 150 contacts, and I did it, and it didn't seem to take me THAT long. You get into a rhythm and just knock it out. (First try just setting it for a few contacts, maybe 10 that are in the same group, because if you don't follow these instruction correctly you will have to do it all over again.)
4. Now, if you ever want to change a group's ringtone, just create a new custom ringtone, and rename the file the same as the default name (ie "AA_Family") and replace the file in your library. Then, when you sync, it will just update the ringtone for everyone in that group.
For example, let's say you have a custom ringtone for the song "Thriller" (named Thriller.m4r) and you want to set that for your "AA_Family" group ringtone. You do the file rename/replace and stuff in your iTunes library, but make sure that Thriller.m4r is NOT in your iTunes library when you sync. If it is, it will mess up the group ringtone stuff you just did and set the ringtone of everyone in that group to "Thriller" instead of "AA_Family".
So, I just changed my family group ringtone to Thriller, and now I want to change it to Jingle Bells. I do the same rename/replace procedure, and I make sure that JingleBells.m4r is not in my iTunes library. Thriller.m4r isn't in my library either because I removed it before. Just make sure that you don't add it back in on this sync either because it will mess up the group ringtone stuff. But I want Thriller as a ringtone still on my iPhone, just not as a group ringtone, so what do I do? Well, just do one sync to update the group ringtone (without Thriller in the library), and check it to make sure it worked. Then add Thriller.m4r to your iTunes library, and sync again. Now you have Jingle Bells as a group ringtone, and Thriller.m4r as a single ringtone.
The iPhone knows that song you are playing regardless of the filename of your ringtone. As long as you don't have conflicts, you'll be alright. Hopefully this isn't too confusing. I tried to be clear without typing out a novel. Again, this is really only helpful if you enjoy changing out your group ringtones often like I do.
Earlier this year, I started getting audible notifications that my Google-voice activated phone (via Sprint) was receiving a call. Most of the time I get the notification before the phone actually rings. The ringtone is a bit annoying. Well, my wife has the same setup and somehow she has a different (less annoying) ringtone, so I'm wondering if Google just randomly picks something or what? We both have Google Apps accounts, so there's no difference there. Any ideas?
If I remember correctly, for Holloween they did custome auto responses but not the ringtones.
Any case, go to the eufy community and check with sup...@eufylife.com to see if they have any plans for Christmas.
You can change or silence the ringtone associated with your Zoom phone number. You can also change the ringtone for other Zoom phone numbers that ring on your line if you have delegated access to another line or are part of a shared line group.
I'm going crazy. For a while now my phone rings 2 ringtones with incoming calls. One is a regular phone sound and the other is the ringtone a chose under preferences or settings. If I change the ringtone to silence, I still get the regular phone ringtone when calls come in. How do I fix it??
Made one dry version with the actual ringtone as it would sound on its own, and one version with a reverb I set up as close to the original as I could muster right now. Link to audio files of both versions in the video description.
(Also, this is tethering into not even being fan art, but I since I created the sounds myself I guess it technically checks out. Don't know where else I'd put it.)
Hi!
Is it possible to set a ringtone as a text tone in iOS 17? Bought a new text tone to set for one of my friends. It is categorioed as a ringtone though, so can't seem to set it as a text tone. Anyone know how to make it work?
Thankful for your help!
Think of it as a 30-second signifier: Your ringtone speaks volumes about you. Put the choice in the same category as a profile pic or a status update. It's important. Here's a flowchart to help you find a signature sound.
Then navigate to the folder "assets\audio" and drag into 7-zip a replacement file named "ring.mp3". This will replace the ringtone for anywhere you've selected "Default" in Teams.
A ringtone is the sound made by a telephone to indicate an incoming telephone call. Originally referring to the sound of electromechanical striking of bells or gongs, the term refers to any sound by any device alerting of an incoming call.
Modern telephones, especially smartphones, are manufactured with a preloaded selection of ringtones. Customers can buy or generate custom ringtones for installation on the device. Digital ringtones were a large market in the 2000s, at its peak generating up to $4 billion in worldwide sales in 2004, but the market declined steeply by the end of the decade.
While rings, ringers, ring signals, or what might be viewed as the call signals which are the predecessors of ringtones, date back to the beginnings of telephony, modern ringtones appeared in the 1960s and have expanded into tunes and many customizable tones or melodies.[4] Arguably the first ringtone (in the modern sense) appeared in the movie Our Man Flint in 1966, where the head of the secret government agency had a red phone that connected directly to the President and rang with a distinctive musical ringtone.[5]
