wing ringtone problem

[TysonLee]

randomly my ringtones will stop working. i dont have the volume on mute. i have to either go into the sounds menu and select a different ringtone and then go back to the one i was using or do a soft reset. its kind of annoying to do so. i just got my wing yesterday and ive had this happen to me twice now. has anyone experience this problem? also i was wondering if there is a way to stop the SMS/MMS ringtone from playing the whole ringtone even if i dismiss the message? i know i can just make the ringtone shorter but if there is a way to stop the ringtone, id much rather do that. thanks in advance.

I have this same problem with my t-mobile wing when I use an mp3 for sms tones, after a few messages it goes silent, I tried placing mp3 in windows folder but eventually it still goes silent, hopefully someone has a fix

[TysonLee]

yes exactly. only when I use a mp3 is when this problem occurs. hopefully there is a tweak or something to fix this

[TysonLee]

anyone have a solution?

i have the same problem and i've been having to do soft resets...pain in the butt

[TysonLee]

has anyone came up with an answer to this problem? i lived with it when i first got my wing, but now it has caused me to miss a few important text messages and what not from my girlfriend and other people.

I placed my .mp3 file in the windows folder and hit refresh then closed file explorer and assigned that .mp3 to my messages. It worked for a while but eventually it still goes silent so this is just a longer temporary fix. I'm still looking for a permanent fix

Hey Is The Ringtone In The Storage Card Or On The PHONE

mine is saved to the phone. its the only way the ringtone will show up in the ringtones list for me to choose it.

I have the same problem as well. I've searched for registry fixes but I've found none. I've converted all of my sms rings from .mp3 to .wav and i haven't had a problem since. But .wav takes up a lot more space. Is this a problem with any other roms or just the t-mobile stock rom.

[TysonLee]

oh i didnt think about changing them to wav. ill try that.

[AHARVEY]

what did you use to convert to .wav?

[Audiopro]

what did you use to convert to .wav?

Cheetah Audio Converter for your pc. Move them to your desktop with ActiveSync, convert them, then copy them back.

thanks i'll try this when I get off work

[TysonLee]

i use audacity to convert to wav and to chop the songs up. anyways using wav instead of mp3 has seem to solve the problem!
