Need Calendar ringtone (NOT notification ringtone)

[soho1]

I use Google calendars (several actually, for work, personal, school, volunteer organization) on my LG w/T-Mobile. The problem is that the Android calendar application only uses the "notification" ringtone. Well, (<insert rant here later>) I need a separate ringtone for the calendar. I cannot make due with a quiet tone the same as all my notifications of new text messgaes. Likewise, I cannot have a blaring loud notification for every text message and other event that occurs 20 times an hour, so those notifications need to be pretty quiet, which just won't do for a calendar appointment. What i need is a selectable ringtone (e.g. choose one of my Zedge ringtones) for the calendar reminders.

Now, I tried a few free calendar extensions such as "calendar snooze" but they still use the "notification ringtone" instead of letting me choose my own ringtone and sound level for appointment reminders.

In short, I need a customizable (select my own ringtone and volume), repeatable, snoozable alarm to remind me of calendar appointments, that is a completely different ringtone from my nice quiet notification ringtone which I use for new email, new text message, battery charge level, and such.

Know a good solution?

Have a look at Missed Message Flasher, free and paid versions. I really like it so far on my Galaxy S II.

In conjunction with selecting a different notification ringtone within the calendar app, you might want to take a look at using something like MP3GAIN to modify a custom ringtone so that it sounds louder and your current notification volume. I don't know how much of an audible difference you could achieve, but if that by itself isn't enough, you could also modify your current notification ringtone to be quieter, allowing you to get a greater difference between the two, and then set your volume accordingly.

Download Tone Picker from Google.com/play and then you can choose any mp3 from your mobile phone on the "choose ringtone" prompt of any apps

Happy Androding !!

I use Calendar Snooze and my tone is the beginning of Revolution, nothing like a few loud guitar chords to get my attention. I created that with Ringdroid and set it in Calendar Snooze. You can't set the volume though.
