Guest edwardan Posted October 25, 2003 Report Posted October 25, 2003 u dont need smarttone to do that, if u go to your contacts and take one person u wanna have another ringtone, then edit him/her and go down to custom ring tone, choose what u want and tada!u dont need smarttone to do that, if u go to your contacts and take one person u wanna have another ringtone, then edit him/her and go down to custom ring tone, choose what u want and tada!
Guest mikey1234 Posted October 25, 2003 Report Posted October 25, 2003 sorry i know that but you cant do that from your storage card so....back to the question
Guest edwardan Posted October 25, 2003 Report Posted October 25, 2003 sure! u can just save the sound u like to use as a ringtone... open with smartexplore
Guest mikey1234 Posted October 25, 2003 Report Posted October 25, 2003 sorry but all it says in smart tones is set parameters but i still cant find where all my contacts are? i am thick arent i EDWARDAN plz could you do a step by step cheers mate atleast it will give you an excuse to play on the pc :)
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted October 26, 2003 Report Posted October 26, 2003 sure! u can just save the sound u like to use as a ringtone... open with smartexplore Just to clarify something here if you do the above it will save the sound on your phone, not on the storage card. I presume mikey1234 still want to have ringtones on the card otherwise he would not be using smart tones.
Guest mikey1234 Posted October 26, 2003 Report Posted October 26, 2003 thats correct awarner............. i know how to assign a ringtone the normal way on my phone........ i just dont know how to us smart tones when i save a ringtone on my storage card i cant find my contacts in explore :)
Guest martin Posted October 26, 2003 Report Posted October 26, 2003 Don't you just assign a directory on the SD card for your ringtones ? Make a directory on the SD card called Ringtones (or other) Place all your WAV's in the SD Ringtone Directory The directory for these files will be called Storage CardRingtones I changed the Ring path using the registry editor. HKEY_CURRENT_USER, ControlPanel, SoundCategories, Ring Edit 'Directory' and change from Windows to Storage CardRingtones The WAV files should now show up on your Contact custom ringtones. The only catch is that the phone will crash if you enter Settings-Sounds :evil: Oh well, you can't win them all :)
Guest mikey1234 Posted October 26, 2003 Report Posted October 26, 2003 thanks martin ill do that.... so what are we saying there is no application to assign ringtones to contacts from the storage card.............. so what is the point of smart tones? :x :x :x :x sorry guys but ive spent the whole day converting mp3s to wav........ chopping them up with cool edit (about 40 of them)..........and now i cant assign them.... thats just great....maybe i should of seen if there was an application first before i done all that.....im sure ill get over it....could some developer knock a tool up to do this cheers

That is what smart tones is for. Instead of going to settings/sound you use smart tones to change the sounds for events.
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted July 22, 2004 Report Posted July 22, 2004 The initial post was about how to make custom ringtones for contacts from the storage card, this is still not possible. The only solution is as martin posted but also as he stated it is not advisable as it makes the phone unstable. Also another reason why it's best not to put ringtones on the storage card is that when the battery gets low the phone stops reading the card in order to save power.
