How to assign different ringtones to each person in your phone book

Ok, so you’ve now got your cool new ringtones downloaded to your cell phone, and you want to assign these various ringtones to different people in your phone’s Address Book.  How do you do that?  It’s very simple.  Again, all cell phones and models are very different, so I’m going to give you the process that works on my Spring PCS A500 Samsung cell phone.  But don’t worry if your phone is a little bit different.  This overall process is very similar on all phones, and with a little playing around with your phone menus you’ll quickly figure out how to assign a different ringtone to each person in your address book.

On my cell phone, I take the following steps to assign a different ringtone to each person in my address book:

1)      Press Main Menu

2)      Select Phone Book

3)      Select Find

4)      Scroll down to the name of the party you wish to assign a ringtone to

5)      When that person’s name is highlighted, select OK to access their entry

6)      Scroll down to “Defaut: Name ringer.”

7)      Press the Menu button on your phone

8)      Use the right arrow to scroll through your ringtone types and select “Downloaded”

9)      With “Downloaded” Highlighted, press your down arrow to access your downloaded ringers

10)  Using your right button, scroll through your ringtones until you have found the ringtone you wish to assign to this person.

11)  One the ringtone you wish to assign is highlighted, press “Ok.”  Then press “Ok” again.

12)  You will now be prompted to save the entry.  Select “Yes”

That might seem like a lot of steps, but once you’ve done this a time or two it’s all very fast and easy.  There you go, you have now just assigned a custom ringtone to an individual in your phone book!
