Do you still use a ringtone?

Ohohohoho yes, I have a certain voice actress saying "oh look, a human garbage asking for your attention" in Japanese for calls, and other condescending sentences for messages etc.
 
Not anymore. It actually ruins the song/melody for me and makes me associate it with stress. Same with the morning alarm.
 
My phone is on silent but I do still have a ringtone that I pretty much only hear when my airpods are connected to my phone and I get a call.

It's the opening ritornello of this:

That's been my ringtone for as long as I can remember. I'm an oboist and I love me some J.S. Bach.
 
Haven't used ringtones in probably a decade. I'm a jumpy person, and my phone doesn't go off all that often so I'll definitely jump these days if it randomly rings. Also, I don't feel like I need to announce to everyone in the same room as me that I'm getting calls and texts. I either stay on silent or vibrate mode.
 
well, doesnt everyone?
i have one set, like all people probably, but my phone is usually muted
 
I use some music that could be heard no matter what noise is around. I just want to be sure if my phone ringing.
 
Oh yes, hell yes I still use ringtones be it from receiving messages to calls.
 
I do. Don't care what people think, they can fuck right off.

Currently using Kevin Ryan's theme from Fatal Fury City of the Wolves. From this point.:

Other times, intros to shows or cartoons, game themes, what ever.
 
I'd be tempted to put this as my ringtone unironically
 
I do but they sound like the stock ones you get on the phone.
MGS3 radio ring for calls and the System Shock Tri Optimum chime for messages.
The chime really confuses people, thinking someone is ringing a doorbell, whilst outside.

Same, i could get s mini heart attack from ringtones.
 
I DEFINITELY hate whenever someone has their smartphone and that stupid Motorola default ringtone sounds.

As for me, When I still had my Samsung GT-E1215 back in 2025 it had a few ringtones and none of them are available on the internet but they were ok.

But because someone's mistake I don't think I need to mention, I had to get a new one. So an acquaintance of mine sold me a phone you can still get for new on stores but ignoring that. I can at least put photos and audio from a micro SD card, Something very good in terms of customization, However, The battery barely has a duration and it doesn't vibrate, So I won't know if someone is calling me when there's too much noise at the bus or when walking thorough social places.

As for the ringtone I use:


The version of Planet Wisp on Colors, The Game Land mode version, I decided to use it because it was what had the most similar sound to an old ringtone. And I love it although I still haven't thought up of sounds for notifications.
Post automatically merged:

Yes this is mine since the day I decided to switch to a dumb-ish phone
I ALSO DID THIS
Although that was way before I started to use dumb phones
 
Ive just got a nice story about this.


For the past year ive been using the power rangers comunicator chime as a message sound

EDIT: this one



I was looking for some sound clip for messages - my collegue uses the Super Mario World Pause Sound (great choice) and i was jealous so ive came up with the power rangers one

I got a new message? "Go go power rangers!" But in mid form, just like in the tv show

Everybody found it funny, it became a hit in the office, and so on

around 12 months pass... and then i start to read in the internet that more people are using it... and people are starting to get annoyed by it

So no here i go again... looking for a new original message sound

Oh ringtones are my jam!!!

Used to have Chrono Trigger battle 1 as my ringtone up until 2 months ago , phone rang frequently in college (during breaks of course) so much so my friend started dancing once lol

Another situation was when i had my phone in my jacket pocket and i wasn't wearing it so when it rang in middle of class (thankfully lecture was over) i couldn't locate the opening of my pocket so i can zip It down and answer the call , instead the whole theme played out! My friend came in and was like "cool theme bro"

Then i switched to "battleground of the bear" from Red Alert 3 i then located the combat mix of "Red Rock For Mother Russia" also from RA3

Which i currently use as my ringtone

(note that the first 2 seconds were removed up until the guitar starts anything before was edited out)

Last year i had FF8 chocobo theme (it's my favorite chocobo theme btw)

I also had FF9 battle for a few months but it was at a time when nearly no one called so it was pretty rare to hear it

In the future i plan to have "The Tragic Prince" from Symphony Of The Night of course it will be edited until the riff at the beginning is heard

Also FF7 boss fight is a good ringtone

And the Red Alert 3 allies combat music "Bring It On" and "Rock and awe"

I would love to put Silent Hill 1 intro music but fear that i will break into tears everytime i hear it

I also want to put Hell March especially Hell March 1 as my ringtone at some point but the beginning boots on ground section takes some 30 seconds so i need to figure a perfect good 10 seconds of that then switch into the proper badass music

There is also "Act instinct" and "Warfare" along with "Just do it up" from Tiberian Dawn those have bombastic and blood pumping intros which is what matters the most because you will only hear the first 10~20 seconds of the song in most occasions
