What's your ringtone(s)?

[jingle.boy]

Everyone's got a device.  What sounds do you use for your ringtones?  I'm a TV show theme kinda guy

My standard incoming call is the Simon and Simon theme.
When my boss or wife rings, it's the Star Wars Imperial March
Team-mates ... A-Team
Family members .... Adams Family
Alarm/Timer - Magnum P.I.

Text tone is just a standard submarine ping.  Also have some standard text tones for different family members.

What else is out there?

[TAC]

Wait! I can make tones for different people?


My ringtone is the beginning to Where Eagles Dare.
My text tone is the beginning of Master Of Puppets.

[cramx3]

No tones, I cannot stand rings and noises coming from phones.  I don't even keep my phone on vibrate anymore either but my smart watch will vibrate if someone does call or text.

[Chino]

I ringtone is this dope track called "Default"

[El Barto]

TOS communicators. The chirps for text messages, and the two beeps for a voice call. They're authentic samples, so if I happen to have classic ST on it does annoy me. I've never bothered to personalize ringtones. In truth the only personalization I want is a different [very quiet] tone for people not in my address book so I don't have to take it out of my pocket, but Android doesn't seem to be on board with that yet.

I did use a sonar ping for a while. And I swore off using music as a ringtone because you're forced to respond to it. Two beeps I can ignore just fine. A song that plays continuously until the call is dropped is bothersome.

[Lonk]

I stopped using ringtones about 10 years ago. I keep my (personal) phone on silence/vibrate at all times, unless I'm expecting an important call.

My work phone though I just have the standard tone the phone had when I received it, which is a "Ding" for text/email and some hyper sounding xylophone for calls.

When I was using ringtones, I would usually take a guitar solo, edit it to 15-20 seconds and use that. I think the last one I used was SoC first solo.

[Adami]

My phone is always on vibrate. My main wake up alarm is Jump by Van Halen though, sometimes an alarm is The Final Countdown.

[King Postwhore]

My Main ringtone is The Kids In The Hall theme. 

My wife 's ringtone is Where Eagles Dare.
My Brother's Ringtone is The Barney Miller theme.

When I owned my own phone, my ringback for those calling me was, Beer by Psychostick.

I've never used my cell phone for a wake up alarm.

[Lonk]

Wait! I can make tones for different people?

Depending on the phone, if you go to a contact and click on settings you might see "Set ringtone" which would give that person and individualized ringtone. In other phones you can do so by "Editing" the contact info and finding the ringtone field through there.

Not sure if serious

For all we know Tim's got one of those cell phones from the 90s

[faizoff]

For the longest time, I had the Imperial March as my ringtone. Now I just use the default ones.

[hunnus2000]

My current ringtone is a song called Transcending Time by some Grammy award winners called Dream Theater. Ever heard of them? 

[King Postwhore]

Marc, Tim probably still uses rabbit ears for his TV too.

[XJDenton]

Default Nokia ringtone. You know the one.

[ProfessorPeart]

My ringtone is that awesome proggy interlude in Opeth's The Lotus Eater. Custom made it myself.

[Ben_Jamin]

My notification tone (text message is considered a notification) is the beginning of Earthshine by Haken.

My ringtone is the middle build up section in Measure of A Life by Arch Echo, when the drums come in.

I used to like making my own ringtones easily in Audacity. These are fine for me and I don't have a desire to change them. I also tend to leave my phone on vibrate most of the time and am able to personalize the vibration pattern, so calls are shorter, rhythmic pulses, while texts are a bit longer pulses. I found that setting pretty useful.

I also used to have the ending piano of Milliontown as my notification tone, but it was hard to hear at times and I would barely notice the piano playing.

[pg1067]

It's been so long since I had a ring tone that I have ZERO idea how to use anything other than the many preset tones that come with the phone.  My phones (one personal and one work) are set to an "old-fashioned" (i.e., '70s/'80s) phone ring, and I think my personal phone just makes a beep when I receive a text.  However, I rarely have the ringer on.

If I remember correctly, the last non-standard ring tone I had was the intro to Tom Sawyer.

[senecadawg2]

My ringtone is a clip from Agalloch's Our Fortress is Burning, but I sometimes swap that out for a clip from 2112

[Dublagent66]

When my phone rings it sounds like a phone, not the theme music to Barney.

My current ringtone is a song called Transcending Time by some Grammy award winners called Dream Theater. Ever heard of them? 

I think so.  They had a greatest hit 30 years ago right?

Hey, what's wrong with my phone??

[wolfking]

I ringtone is this dope track called "Default"

Haha, same here.

[lonestar]

Ring tone is Sam Ermelini's solo from Another Day Slips By.


Text tone is a sneeze.

[Snow Dog]

Phone call tone is the intro to Rush’s Ceiling Unlimited.

Text tone is the standard “Calypso” tone.

[KevShmev]

The only time I used a ring tone is on my alarm for waking me up in the morning.  I change the song I used every so often, and since I like being slowly woken up and not jolted out of my sleep, it is always a song with a mellow or soft intro.  Right now, it is Big Log by Robert Plant.

Obviously a cue to use the bathroom as soon as you get up.

After eating my morning Bran Flakes, yes.

When my boss or wife rings, it's the Star Wars Imperial March
Team-mates ... A-Team

Nice! My last phone had the Imperial March for my wife. Now it is It's Raining Tacos.

That A-Team intro is seared in to my brain. That intro dialogue starts, and I wish I was locked up in a maximum security stockade just so I could promptly escape.

[MrBoom_shack-a-lack]

I ringtone is this dope track called "Default"

Yea I also rock the default, however as my alarmclock I have Earthside - The Closes i've come which starts mellow and then full on which tends to do the trick if I have a heavy morning.

[Zydar]

I'm also using one of the default ones. I want my phone to sound like a phone, not a jukebox

[Deadeye21]

My ringtone is the opening lead guitar lick from As the City Takes the Night by Voyager. My text tone is the synth breakdown riff from Metropolis (the riff that plays under JP’s solo)

[Stadler]

Marc, Tim probably still uses rabbit ears for his TV too.

We know this; there is tin foil involved.

[Stadler]

I have a couple;
- My dad's is "Closer To The Heart".   
- My daughter's is the ascending keyboard part about 4:00 into "Awaken" by Yes.
- My ex-wife's is the intro to "Hear About It Later" by Van Halen.
- My wife's is the intro to "Women In Love" by Van Halen.
- My brother's is "The Seeker" by The Who.

I have others I use for alarms and what not:  "You Can't Stop Rock 'n' Roll" by Ozzy, "Monkey Man" by The Rolling Stones.   A couple others.

[MirrorMask]

I use the vibration and I don't make calls, it's all Whatsapp for me.

Yeah, way to be a buzz killer
