Nice idea and gets my vote I can never be bothered to change my ringtone (never enough hours in the day excuse etc etc) so this would be perfect for me

Honestly, I'd prefer something more basic. I'd like to be able to set up ringtones as follows: 1. A ringtone for someone in my phonebook without an assigned tone. (We've already got this one, woo-hoo!) 2. A ringtone for an unrecognized phone number. 3. A ringtone for numbers which come up "private." 4. A ringtone for numbers which come up "unknown." That's my simple ringtone fanstasy. (I only say fantasy 'cause it doesn't look like it's gonna happen.) I thought SmartFilter by NovoMobile was going to satisfy my needs, but it had some troubles on my MPx220. Now, like everyone, I expect some bugs with new software - but the last time I visited their support forums it seemed to indicate that there will be no support and even a bit of antagonism towards purchasers. To get back on topic... it would be great if you could set up a rotating or random ringtone which switched at an interval you preferred. Moreover, it'd be great if you could set it up by checkboxing a list of ringtones the program discovered on the telephone. In this way you could limit the ringtones to those you like most, and keep it from playing, for example, your alarm reminder tone. Then you could select between the options Random -> Rotating -> Standard for how the telephone chooses the tone. Then if you could set a period to switch - something like, Every call -> Every Day -> Every Week -> Monthly -> et cetera. Now if I only knew how to program. Didn't mean to try to hijack the post - sorry for the rant. Ron.

How about an app that will use the standard ringtones or custom ringtones based on the current profile. I have some funny tones that I don't want to use at work, but also don't want to take the time to change them outside of the office.
Profile: At Work, would use standard "boring" tones
Profile: Normal, would use funny "offensive" tones

phoneAlarmSP may be able to do a lot of what you guys are wanting. I've been using PA for my PPCs for a while, and it does offer a lot of the features. They justs recently released the Smartphone version, so I'm not sure how similar it is, and how it performs. May be worth a try though.

It includes rings when it says alarms. At least on the PPC it does. When you customize the profiles you can choose which ring you want for that specific profile.
