FP2 Resets ringtone every time phone is turned off / rebooted

[Tatsmith79]

Everytime my phone is switched off and back on again the ringtone resets itself to the default. Not the text notification, just the ringtone.

Is this a bug, not had this problem till recently and it may have coincided with the last software update.

Thanks Zora

Do you use a custom ringtone?

In that case:

Problem solved with this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.media.ringtonemaker (It’s called Ringdroid and you can also find it on F-Droid). Open a media file with it, crop it (optionally), save it and then you can assign it as a ringtone, notification, or contact-specific ringtone. Yay!

Hi, I dont think its custom. It was just in the list of ringtones in settings? But I don’t think it used to be there so I have no idea? Im not really sure about customising stuff on phones.

Maybe you installed a 3rd party app the came with a ringtone?
What happens after reboots if you reset the ringtone to a previously installed ringtone?

I’m having this problem again now, after an update I did use the solution that worked for me previously, but that doesn’t work anymore.

EDIT: My fault here - I had installed an application to automatically manage my sound profiles, and that’s where a setting had gone loose.
