Normal Ringtones

Posted in Banter by chris on April 29th, 2006

I’m in the minority here, but I like my celly to ring like a phone, not like MTV played through a tin can. I still think there’s a market for “phone” ringtones, but nobody’s biting. In the mean time, here are a couple links that contain a pretty decent collection of actual rings.

I’m using “Old Italian Phone” from the first link and it sounds pretty decent on my Nokia 6682. It’s got that old phone sound with a little electronic-ness in there which takes the edge off, and it’s unique enough so I know it’s my phone.

    Let me change your mind :)

    As a Nokia 6600 owner myself, I’ve gotten quite a few complements with my custom made, classic Spottieottiedopalicious ringtone.

    Try putting that tight little Nokia Synth to work too. Load up some .midi’s and you’ll be plesantly suprised. Do a quick search for DJ Jean - The Launch. ;)

    I guess IM in the minority with you. While they are starting to make more phones with better quality sound. It is embarrassing to be somewhere, and all of a sudden have some corny music rolling out of my purse! I want my cell phone to ring like a normal phone. Thank you for the links for normal ring tones. ! :o)

    Thanks for the links. I too would like the option of having my generic ringtone to sound normal and have my friend’s allocated ringtones be the different ones

    I was so pissed when I found out my phone didn’t have a normal ringtone. I also couldn’t find one for free anywhere. I ended up making my own. You can download it from my blog at:

    We just launched a site that features a variety of more ‘normal’ sounding ringtones. they aren’t recordings of traditional phone rings, but rather, sophisticated rings designed for cell phones, including text alerts business rings and some experimental tones.
