Ringer ID for Text messages

tkglsxk · #1 (**permalink**) 03-25-2010, 02:54 PM

I've searched and searched and I can't find what I'm looking for so I thought I would post. I would like to find a way to have custom "ringer ID's" for text messages. I know how to have different ringers for when different people call, but I would also like it if it would sound different for each person that sends me a text. Is this possible. I'm running WiMo 6.1 Stock with SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.1. So far I love everything about the way I have it setup right now except for that one thing. Please help. I'm hoping there is just a simple .cab that I can install to change this. I'm not up on all the rom cooking and reg edit stuff that some of you pros do.

You can have the built-in Microsoft Voice software it read out the txt or who it's from, i think, you should try it out and see if you can get it to work.

This one (Photo Contacts Pro) is probably way more than what you need, but it does what you are asking ...

You can also convert whatever ringtone you want to a wav format and put it in windows/rings and or my documents/my ringtones and then you can assign the ringtone to all text messages.

If you're looking to assign a separate one to each contact, there's a program called ringo or something like that...it's quick, simple and easy.

Thank you all for your help. I've tried the voice announcing before and it just gets on my nerves.

Piranah: I tried the software you suggested and couldn't get it to do anything. I did a restart and everything. I wouldn't see any of my sound on my phone. I looked kinda like what I was looking for. Just didn't work.

Meatgel: I'm going to look into your suggestion a little bit more and see if that is really what I want. I really didn't want to pay $30 for the software, but I might try the demo and see if it's worth it. Thanks.

Codybear: I'm going to look into your suggestion too. Ringo? Is that what you called it? I will google it when I get done typing and see if that is what I'm looking for.

Thanks to all for your suggestions. I will keep looking and taking all suggestions and information I can get.
