Ringer IDs Issue

[candygurl]

I set a Ringer ID on some of my contacts only to find out that it's also activated as the SMS Alert tone when they text (it's my first time to have a mobile phone that's NOT a Nokia brand...with Nokia, the Ringer ID is activated for phone calls only).

I tried turning OFF the Alert (in Messages > Options > Setup > Message Setup > Alert > OFF) and it seemed to work fine when I tested it before. But now, it doesn't work.

Just wondering if any of you guys out there are experience the same thing and if you have any solution to this issue. I would really like to have the Ringer ID of my Razr phone activated for calls only and NOT for SMS Alerts. Thanks!

Hi candygurl,

This is not a valid problem with your phone. In fact, it is just how Motorola Phone works. Phone limitation if I may say.

I have found some information that this can be resolved temporarily by doing some Seem editing. But I should say it's not an easy task.

You can read the instructions using the V3x Personalization Guide which you can find at solorazrv3x.ph.forumfree.net. Scroll down to Chapter 1.40 HOW TO: Have Separate Ringer IDs for calls and SMS Text Messages!

Thanks! It IS lengthy. Looks like I won't be able to do this anytime soon... But super thanks for the FYI!
