hey whats goin on guys...this is my first post on this forum but i have been doing alot of reading... i wanna say thanks alot .. ive learned alot from this site and i log in regularly at work and i always learn something new... i just recently purchased my first blackberry and its safe to say.. im never goin back... anyways...

my question is.. on my 8320... i want to assign a specific ringer for specific people.. ive gone to the profiles and added an exception... then in the 'from' menu i select the contact to whom i want the specific ringer for... then use profile to active profile.. then i chekced off custom phone tune and selected the ringer which i wanted... it just DOESNT work.. i even did a battery pull and all that... it still uses my default ringer.. any help would be greatly appreciated.. ive been tryin to figure this out for 2 days now.. thanks in advance...

Go into your phone book...select the contact you want to add the custom tune for...you will see the phone number listed....click the menu button....click edit...you will see the phone numbers...picture...address...etc.
click the menu button again...and there you will see "add custom phone tune"...then save.

ok .. thanks alot.. i got that far.. but when i do that.. it only lets me pick ringers from my device memory.. i was tryin to get somethin of my mem. card and use it as a ringer ... any advice or is it just a lost cause?

You can go onto your blackberry and through your computer and put the songs you choose into the "Ringtone" file....and then you can choose them easily

lol.. thanks.. i knew that.. but it only lets me set one ringer.. waht i wanna do is.. have my default ringer.. but have a specific ringer for when my girl calls me.. or a specific ringer for when my job calls... u get what im sayin? thanks for the help tho..

I have over 15 different ringers for different people...and if its in holster or out.
Shouldn't have a problem if you save the song in the ringtones file....then choose that song for the specific person as I told you in my first post.

ok.. if u can help me.. i have the song i want to ring for my girl in the ringtone folder in the media section... i have a default ringer which is also located in the ringtone folder of the media section.. how can i set this other song to only ring for her.. im sittin here feeling really dumb right now.. please help... ive gone to the song.. hit set as phone tune.. that changes the defualt in and out of holster ringer to this one.. i dont want that...

were you not able to do what I said in my original remark to "add custom phone tune" for that certain contact??

when i do that... it only shows ringers that are saved to the device memory..

edit

wow.. nvm.. how the hell did that happen... before it only showed the standard tones that are in device memory.. but now when i do it.. all my ringers show up.. wow.. ok.. thanks alot for ur help... i really appreciate it...

try it with a different custom ringtone, perhaps something is wrong with just that one.

No problem....Glad it all worked out for you...also Welcome to the Forums!!!

ok.. i have the ringer set.. and when i view contact it says custom ringer:blah blah... but when i actually call.. my default still plays.. what am i doin wrong?

When you go into your profile...Normal..advanced...edit....does it show up the Exception for "your girl" at the bottom

yes and its checked off already as well.. im so lost

I didnt do anything except set them....I didnt have to change any features....try changing the profiles...then setting them back....if nothing else i say Backup then battery pull to reset. That seems to be the comon fix for these things for some reason.
