Customizable Ringer/Sound Profiles?

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

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

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..

Ringo Pro - Ringtones Manager

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!
