Will E100 support polyphonic ring tones?


Recommended Posts

According to the Internal memo leaked at http://www.coolsmartphone.com/index.php the new SPV E100 supports proper polyphonic ring tones. I thought it was supposed to be internally the same as the SPV, so either this has been added in the 1.50 ROM update or they are going to mis-describe the phone to potential customers.

who cares about polyphonic ring tones (or multiphonic for that matter) when you can have WAVE files ????

You can actually have james brown say 'I feel good' or something ... instead of having a tune that slightly resembles something that kind of reminds you of something related to a james brown track.

Yeah, and flashing covers?

Not sure about polyphony, but why would u use it?

Did you know that more money is made on ringtones etc then on porn on the net? :shock:

If they are supported, it will be through the software update rather than a hardware change.

SPV (Canary) and the E-100 (Tanager) are identical from a hardware point of view except the screen and keyboard.

From looking at that page on CoolSmartPhone, I would be inclined to say Ringtone Support is unlikely to change.

The SPV does support polyphonic tones - of sorts...

And for the purposes of a general slide like that, Polyphonic = Crappy SPV Polyphonic = WAV I would imagine :lol:

yeah, yeah ... heard this argument before. Yes I would rather have it sounding like a mobile phone ring than a cheap tranny radio! In the same way that an early Mario game wouldn't seem right if the soundtrack was replaced with a WAVE of the BBC Symphony Orchestra!

I know your gonna say I can convert MIDI to wave on the PC, blah blah blah. Tried that and it just doesn't sound the same.

If you're that worried about polyphonic ringtones then why not try a different phone? There's plenty phones that support it.

I believe that is because of the bad E100 speaker, not the WAV file. With a good speaker, a WAV would have sounded just as good as, say, a polyphonic ringtone on the T610.

Try the midi collection on coolsmartphone - they're in folders for each letter of the alphabet.

I'd recommend P for Prodigy.

Thanks, I tried the Prodigy Minefield. It's good, but the speaker still cannot match a T610.
