Ringtones

[Vendingwarehouse]

I've sen mobile phones that tell you out loud who is ringing . So say you can't reach your phone, as it's ringing, when it stops ringing it say's " you missed a call from ?????? ". Anyone know where to get this piece of software.

What phone you got Noel?

On my Nokia N95 through the menu Settings --> General --> Personalisation --> Tones --> Say Callers Name --> On/Off

Also my incar Bluetooth Parrot handsfree will say the cllers name for me when they ring.

Another way to do it, is set different ringtones for different contacts so you know for example when its the wife.
When my wife rings me, my ringtone is "WARNING... WARNING.... ITS THE WIFE!... THE WIFE IS CALLING YOU NOW!...."

I'm sure there's a few other ways to do it depending on what phone you've got, eg.. an IPhone will have an app available for it. A Nokia S60 compatible phone, will probably also have an app available for it.

I've got Nokia 6300's and 6500c's. Thinking of getting a Blackberry but not decided yet.

Hi Noel, they are S40 based phones, which are very limited with the software they can run.
I dont think S40 software allows programs to run in the background, so you wont find an app that'll do it.
Also, it doesn't have the built in function to do it.

Looks like new phone time

Oh well it looks like a blackberry then.

You might want to check Blackberry has this feature before buying.

I'm due a change anyway, and orange give me free upgrades every year so I suppose the Blackberry will win.
