Droid Charge contact ringtone selection - Go Launcher

[MattHamby]

I am having a problem with my contacts. I am trying to change the ringtone of some contacts in my list, I access my contacts through Go Contacts, select the contact I want to change, I try to change the ringtone from "default ringtone" to whatever I want then click done. Once I go back to the contact it is back to default ringtone. Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing, is this an issue with the Go Suite? I had the same problem on my Fascinate.

This seems to only be a problem with changing the contact to "silent". I want certain contacts to be silent all the time, while most are standard ringtones

Thanks for any help!

It's always possible that it's a problem w/ the app. Have you tried making the change from the default app for contacts?

I have thought about that, but how do I go back to the original contacts to try it out?

Thanks,

Matt

just go into your app drawer and enter it. If that still puts you into the Go version, go into your settings for Apps and clear the defaults for Go Contacts, and it should allow you to enter the stock one.

well, this is something weird - there is no silent option in the stock contacts - I think that is the problem, go has the option, but it's not available due to there not being an option on the phone to start with? Anyway, with that I think I have found a solution - I am going to record a sound of nothing and set it as my ringtone, I think that will work.

Thanks, you have been very helpful!

This works - download this View attachment Silence.zip, unzip it, then place the Silence.mp3 file into the ringtones folder on your deveice.
