Motorola Droid: Set Ringtone to a Contact
Posted by Mitch on Nov 16, 2009 under Android Tips | 8 CommentsIf you want a ringtone to sound when a certain person calls, you can make this happen on the Motorola Droid by assigning a ringtone to a Contact. Here’s how.
1. Open the Contacts app.
2. Tap the contact that you wish to set a ringtone to.
3. Press Menu.
4. Tap Options.
5. Tap Ringtone.
6. Select a tone.

Kim-I too finally found how to set the ringtone for a specific person…but it hasn’t worked yet! Any idea why? I have 2 ringtones I downloaded, one main one and one for my husband. It keeps playing the main one. I have checked multiple times, and as far as I can tell, my husband should have his own ringtone.
Anyone have any tips?
On the Droid you open a contact, go to menu and select options. There you can choose a ringtone for that contact. My issue is that about 30% of the time the default ringtone is used regardless of which ringtone I have selected for that contact. I have no idea why the phone seems to pick and choose when the correct ringtone is used. Anyone else having that problem?
Go into the contact and go to Menu > Edit >
Scroll down to Additional Info.
Click the little triangle to open that area.
Go down to Call Handling.
