Customizable Ringer/Sound Profiles?

**Abe21599** · 02-09-2010, 04:08 AM

Hello

I used to have a bb curve and not until the other day i realized i missed having the different profiles for the ringer volume and what not

I was wondering if there was an app out there that was basically ringer profiles like the blackberrys come with or something similar

i used to have locale but i dont want to pay for that now (im not positive but i think its now $10 in the market?)
and my schedule is more random than that can be put into a program like that - id much rather just have some app on the homescreen that would let me change the sound profile with a click

any ideas/suggestions?

another thing that bugs me is that the ringer for the phone has to be the same as the ringer for my texts/emails. I would much rather have the texts/emails set to low and the ringer on high/vibrate but i havent figured how to do this yet

and I have mine rooted so any of those apps would work as well

Thanks

I know thats what I'm sayin though.....I don't think it gets anymore customizable than that! Not that I've seen so far though...

yea it'd be nice if someone who had a bb would make an app like they had for the different sound profiles

Yeah that would definitely be a handy tool to have....and I don't see why a feature like that would not be implemented into the phone somewhere...especially a phone like this...

But I guess thats what sets them all apart from eachother...Droid, iPhone, BlackBerries, Windows Mobile, etc. they all have their pros and cons really

yea thats the only part of this smartphone that doesnt strike me as "smart"

only one volume for all your ringers? come on android we could have spent more time here

must say i dont miss my curve except for the profiles (and the fact i could drop it out of a moving car and then make a call on it

)

Haha! I know...before I was a huge Android fan I always used to say that BB's were the most durable, heavy duty built phones out there....and I still think they might be, durable-wise

yea until i went from my htc pro back to the curve and kept trying to touch the screen...

although i must say i was a bit wary about getting the droid bc the sliding function on my pro always gave me problems (lag, freezing) but i am happy i did go with it. although the htcs physical keyboards had more of a sturdy feel to them

(not that im in the mood to rip on the droid im just pointing out a few features where other manufacturers had a better product)

hope motorolas reading this..

For this feature I use:

Ringo Pro - Ringtones Manager.

I don't remember how much it cost but it was worth it either way. I was missing those tones that I haven't been able to customize for each person for 2 phones prior that I had. And it is definitely a nice feature!

So I recommend it as an app thats worth getting! It's been working great on my Droid as well, no issues and runs smoothly!
