Set Ringtones On An Htc Touch

In 2007, HTC released the HTC Touch, a cell phone that doubled as a pocket PC. Incorporating a Windows Mobile 6 operating system, and using a unique user interface known as TouchFLO, the HTC Touch was released to a number of carriers. The operating system allows for the use of a number of file formats to produce ringtones, giving users an easily customizable ringtone system. Setting ringtones on an HTC Touch is an easy procedure.

1. Start up your HTC Touch.


2. Tap on the "Start" button.


3. Tap on "Settings."


4. Tap on "Phone."


5. Customize the ringtone settings using the drop-down menus. You can select a tone, and change whether or not you want the phone to vibrate during calls.


Assigning Unique Ringtones


6. To assign a ringtone to an individual caller, start up your HTC Touch.


7. Tap on the "Start" button.


8. Tap on "Contacts."


9. Select a contact, then tap on "Menu."


10. Tap on "Edit." Scroll down to "Ringtone," and then tap it to find and assign a ringtone. Repeat as desired on other contacts to customize your contact list's ringtones.
