Hi!
I was wondering about the ringer ID feature of my motorola E1000 (I suspect
it's the same for all motorola phones though).
Why is it that the ringer ID is also used for message alarms??? I mean -
that renders the ringer ID feature completely useles! Who in the world want
to hear a complete ring-tone if they recieve a message? And you have to
answer the phone if the person with ringer ID send you a message - the phone
doesn't stop ringing!!
It drives me crazy, as I really did want a special ringtone for my
girlfriend... argh...
Anyone else with this problem?
Regards
Tommy

before work, and the damn ringer tones would keep going and drive me
crazy.

Yeah, I understand how it works... but the thing is, that the ringer ID ALSO
overrides any sms/mms tones I set elsewhere in the phone. So when I recieve
a sms from that person, the ringer ID tone will be used, and continue
rigning until I read the message!
I just think that this is a major bug in the firmware - one that Motorola
really should do something about, as any other phone out there does this
properly!

I sent an email to Motorola about this, and they basically told me that
we just have to deal with it ... it is not a bug, it is "how the phone
works." So, basically, the only Ringer IDs you can assign are those to
people whom never send you text messages. Sucks!

Or you could enjoy knowing who the text msg is from even before you pick
up the phone.

Re: Anyone using ringer ID?
Well, I have the same problem you have described with the Motorola V220.
It defintely overrides MMS and SMS ringer tones.
What a crappy piece of Software design. It seems all the Motorola
phones have this problem. It makes it useless for me. Now I have to
delete the Ringer IDs again.

I enjoy knowing the difference between an incoming call and a text
message more.
