Disappearing rintones
cdhMay 13, 2010, 6:42 PM
I have created contact/custom ringtones using the nifty built-in editor and Saved them. They work for a day and then disappear from both the Contact and the list of available ringtones. Not sure if this happens when powering down or recharging or what. Any thoughts on how to prevent this?

Are you saving them on the phone or on the SD card? I know that a lot of apps (and possibly android itself) arn't quite built to deal with internal memory for a lot of things (yet).
Make sure you save them on the SD card.
Also.. why are you turning the phone off?

Thanks for the input. I have not found a setting/option for saving ringtones on the SD Card; they save by default on the HTC. The problem was that Saving the ringtone as a Contact Ringtone via the editor does not save the Contact settings after powering down; you must also Save the updated Contact card. I turn my phone off for three reasons: (1) I figure the battery will last 50% longer if used 16 hrs/day vs 24 hrs, and after exhaustive research over many years I have found that if I power down while I am sleeping (2) I never use my phone and (3) unwanted phone sounds never wake me up.

I just set phone to silent from sleeping (I also use it as an alarm)
