Assign certain ringtone to a certain contact?

---

If you're with other droid handset you cold simply go to contact>menu>option but in i9000 i dont see anything like that.

Any advice?

You can assign a ring tone if the contact is a "Phone" type in other mean you made it!.
but if your contact is "SNS contacts" as you got it from the internet accounts like gmail,you can't assign a ring tone beside the normal one.

that's what i realized if I'm not wrong.

I know how you feel, cause as i was searching in my phone i realized that
half my contact synced!.

There is a way to do this, albeit very tedious. For every contact that you want to assign individual ringtone, you need to create a contact with the same name but in phone memory. During the creation, you can assign the ringtone to the phone contact. You just need to create with name and ringtone and nothing else. Your phone will link the 2 contacts together (this and the same-named gmail one), and viola, you have your individual ringtone.

I have tried other ways like ringdroid and ringtone manager and it doesn't work. Though the ringtone gets assigned to the gmail contact when I used these apps, the phone still use the default sound when they call. The above seems to be the only way that works.

Also if you noticed, your contact picture gets very blurred and pixelated (in the phone canvas during calls) when they are synced from gmail. The only way around this problem is also the above, ie assign pic to phone contact and link them.

Yes, you are right.

there's downSide for this like in the e-mail app, when you press the contact to select one, you will see all the contacts twice

Nothing is perfect

Not 100% sure, but guess you can change it without copy all into phone with the app. Zedge. That is a app for change wallpapers and ringtones, not use it for a while but worth look it upp.

Actually you won't. Your phone contact has nothing except the ringtone or pic. So in your email, phone or other apps only the contact with the relevant field populated will be shown
