Do you have a cool ringtone?

[Roshi]

I allocated various ring tones (m4a actually, cuz, y'know, it's Apple™! ) to my different contacts:

The default tune is Tenacious D's The Metal. Otherwise I have: Highway To Hell, Fling Thing (both by AC/DC), Steven (by Alice Cooper), Superman's Theme, The Ballad of Serenity, What Goes Around Comes Around by Nescobar-A-Loop-Loop (from My Name Is Earl OST) and No One Knows by Queens Of The Stone Age.




You can't kill the Metal!

 

[Ood Sigma]

Sort of surprised, sort of not, to see that I'm not the only one that has the Doctor Who theme as my ringtone.

Although, to be specific, it's not the default ringtone, but the one that plays when my wife calls. However since calls from her account for about 95% of all the calls I receive, it's the one I hear most. And I can still tell when it's her calling, or someone else.

 

[BigFoot]

My ringtone is Baba O'Riley by The Who.

 

[Pingfah]

My phone only cost 20 quid, and it only does the old style ringtones. And I ain't paying for any of that nonsense, so no, it just goes ring ring.

 

[All Seeing Eye]

My phone only cost 20 quid,

My phone cost £200 when I bought it, it NOW costs £20.

I feel I should add that my message tone is the Voyager door chime and when I get an email the channel open sound plays.

 

[Michael Chris]

On my old phone I did, but sadly I don't know how to transfer to my new phone since I don't have a cable. I had a sound effect from Terminator 2 as my text message ring and I had the 24 phone ring.

 

[Sean Aaron]

When my wife or home rings I get part of the introduction to Night Of The Thumpasorus Peoples by Parliament.

Anyone else rings I get my favourite track off of Shanghai Advance for the GBA which I captured on the computer because I dig it so much.

My text message alert is the start up sound from the Defender arcade game.

Gamer as fuck.

Here, I spied your mug on a WiiWare review site - well in!

Ah yes, damn people for having the audacity to customise their incoming call notifications. How dare they.

Somehow we got by for a century with our home phones just simply ringing.

And we got by for eons before that without phones, period. What's your point?

I see no reason at all people need to hear goofy, silly, tunes whenever someone calls them.

Good for you. Vote with your wallet.

It's a phone, not a jukebox.

Mine's both. Deal with it.

Seems like someone is trying to out-do you in the joyless cunt department there, Jim.

 

[TheLonelySquire]

Star Trek is my ring tone! What else? As to whether that's cool or not...

It's why I'm so miffed.

I use a Cisco IP ringer from 24. It's cool and it still sounds like what it is, a PHONE. Music ringtones are annoying and obnoxious.

I've been trying to find different variations of the Cisco IP ringer like the one you hear in the waiting room at a hospital but I haven't had much luck.

I can't afford a Iphone so I got the "fake-a-call" and modded my touch to include the metal gear solid codec ringtone

[Mallory]

No special ringtone since all I have is a landline.

 

[Misfit Toy]

My ringer is a ringing phone, but my message tone is Majel's voice saying "Incoming message from Starfleet Command."

 

[John Clark]

Just the CTU ringtone from 24

 

[Jim Steele]

I'm sitting here wondering how having a custom ringtone is and of itself "obnoxious".

 

[Zulu Romeo]

^^ Well, mine used to be the Crazy Frog.


Now I get all of mine from ytmnd.com.
