What's your ringtone?

[Dark Lord of the Bith]

My phone is usually on vibrate, but when it's not, the ring is the Metal Gear codec sound. It's close enough to a regular phone ring to most people and other fans tend to appreciate it. One of my friends had the "!" sound for text message alert, and the first time I heard it I instinctively glanced around for a hiding spot or cardboard box.

I set mine to an old bell telephone style ring.

Before that, the TOS intercom whistle. It's pretty good as a ringtone, actually; distinctive, not that annoying if your volume is at a sensible level, and people keep mistaking it for birdsong.

I would LOVE that. Where/how did you get it?

It's "Intercom" under "Enterprise".

The Tribble sound on that page would be an awesome ring too.

"Battle Without Honor or Humanity" by Tomoyasu Hotei has been my ringtone for the last three phones I've owned.

I use that one as well.

[Havok]

My default ring is chewbacca roaring
My youngest brother is Superman theme song
My second youngest is Indiana Jones
My sister is a bunch of cats meowing, my oldest brother is Lord Of the Rings walking past a mountain song
My mom is the benny hill theme
my dad is the imperial march
my friend sarah is thriller
work is the A team theme
voicemail is knight rider.

Nice collection. A-Team for work is a nice touch. Also, that certainly says something about how you view your parents.

[Stargate Nerd]

Enter the Castle from the Sympony of the Night soundtrack for phone calls.
(starts at the 24 second mark if you don't know what it is:

Metal Gear Solid Codec for Text Messages.


I'm such a nerd.

[Ford Prefect]

"Battle Without Honor or Humanity" by Tomoyasu Hotei has been my ringtone for the last three phones I've owned.

I use that one as well.

I approve, guys. That said, I don't use anything special. For a while now I've wanted to set my message tone to the Newtype flash noise from Mobile Suit Gundam, but I can't connect my phone to my computer (no cable).

[Alyrium Denryle]

My phone ringtone is the music from the TOS episode Amok Time from when Kirk and Spock were fighting with giant bladed Q Tips.

My text message alert is Worf saying "Captain, Incoming Message."

[Raw Shark]

I never had a cellphone before I needed one for work, so mine plays Takin' Care of Business by Bachman Turner Overdrive.

[Aaron]

I use Anvil of Crom for everything.

[Tiriol]

My current ringtone is (and has been for some months now) Beethoven's Für Elise.

[Bounty]

I use vibrate because my phone didn't let me do what I really wanted: a sequence of beeps.

You can always make a .wav with two beeps and ten minutes of silence. Unless whoever's calling you hangs around for ten minutes waiting for you to pick up it won't repeat.

[El Moose Monstero]

Baba O Rielly - the synthesiser bit at the start really makes for a good ringtone. It's got to the point now that if I hear the song being played somewhere, I automatically reach for my phone!

[Zed Snardbody]

I have numerous Bruce Campbell quotes for my SMS, Voice Mail, Email, and Ringtone.

Hail to the king baby.

[Surlethe]

Generally, my phone is on vibrate; that's easier than remembering to turn it off of "ring" when I'm in a movie theater, class, etc. When it's not, it's just a typical ring. The only exception was during election season, when my ringtone was this.

[Karza]

The Sonic 1 Scrap Brain Zone (awesome level name ) music as ringtone, MGS codec beep as text message sound.

[mr friendly guy]

I usually alternate between the Doctor Who theme (Tom Baker's naturally) and This song

[Fleet Admiral JD]

I currently use Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue.

[Losonti Tokash]

Mine is almost always on vibrate, but my default ringer is FSOS by the Exies. For personalized ringtones I just tell people to pick one since I'm able to actually make the ringtones instead of paying $3 for a 15 second clip of a song.

[LadyTevar]

My father adored the "Hall of the Mountain King" theme from Peer Gynt.

It came packaged with the phone as a midi.

[Phantasee]

I use vibrate because my phone didn't let me do what I really wanted: a sequence of beeps.

You can always make a .wav with two beeps and ten minutes of silence. Unless whoever's calling you hangs around for ten minutes waiting for you to pick up it won't repeat.

10 minutes is excessive. If he's got voicemail set to 4 rings before it picks up, he'll need 21-22 seconds, max. That's why most ringers are 30 seconds.

I use the Motorola "Ding" for my text messages, because it's probably the best tone ever for messages. I've been meaning to experiment with different tones, though. Sometimes even the Ding is a little annoying.

For calls, I switch it up all the time. I've got "So Much Pain" by Ja Rule ft 2Pac, specifically the start of 2Pac's verse (the third verse). It's a cleaner version than 2Pac's original, "Pain", which I can't find anywhere anyway (my copy of the song is ripped from a YouTube video). The other choices are a clip from Vanilla Ice's "Ice Ice Baby", specifically the part about him going solo, rollin' in his 5.0 with the ragtop down so his hair can blow, the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers theme, the chorus from Rihanna's Disturbia (Throw on your brake lights/We're in the city of wonder), or the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air theme.

All of them are awesome, but I have the smart button on the side set to open up the ring style menu, so I can switch it to vibrate with two button pushes. No need to worry about being interrupted in class! Although I tend to forget to turn the ringer back on after, and occasionally miss calls.

I use the Ranz des Vaches section from the William Tell Overture.
I find it soothing and it reminds me of the carefree days of my youth filled with Bugs Bunny cartoons.
