What is your ringtone?

Bold of you to assume my phone hasn't been on vibrate for the last 15 years.

I think I heard it once in the past ten years. I was very confused by this sound.
This is the way
- This is the way
It still has a ringtone setting. What are you hiding from us? /s

Who the fuck doesn't leave their phone on silent/vibrate?

- My phone is brand spanking new and probably considered to be a flagship device, but the vibrate is pitifully weak where I often don't notice my phone going off while wearing it in my own damn pocket.
  
  In general though, I've always had my ringer on while at home in case I set my phone down and need to know someone called. In public I leave it off generally.
- I have my phone in my pocket and still miss it vibrating lol. Either I am terrible at noticing or the vibration just isn't strong enough while in a moving truck or operating a drill.

Monkey Island main theme, 1 bit PC speaker version

I remember typing out the notes to Monkey Island on my old Nokia in the early 2000s. Took me ages, but it was so worth it :)
Monkey Island main theme, but the one from Tales as it's shorter and doesn't take ages to ramp up.

I haven't taken my phone off vibrate for 4 years

Mute

brrrrrrrrrrrrrr brrrrrrrrrrrrrr brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

The intro music from the American TV show Knightrider

The main theme from Laputa: Castle in the Sky. It's been that for the past 7 or more years. May change it to another Ghibli movie theme song.

The one from The Expanse (not the theme, the one that all the "phones" in the series have).

I would like a link for that!

Don't know, never had it turned on lol

The Doctor Who theme. Specifically the theme from David Tennents run.

At some point the the Eccleston/Tennent run I had just the sound of the TARDIS landing as my ringtone. When it would go off in a crowd it was a great was to spot my fellow geeks.

The instrumental version of "Still Alive" that the radios in the original Portal play.

Darude - Sandstorm

56k modem

That's lit

Formula 1 intro tune. A call will not be left unnoticed.

Worth checking out this live version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AYy-BcjRXg

Oh and as a bonus I will give you this alarm clock tune https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enYdAxVcNZA

That's... not and never will be the true f1 intro for me.

Fleetwood Mac, The Chain is the one, true, F1 theme.

Yeah, I'm old... I'm nostalgic... I can't let go.
- Iconic theme music I agree. But the new one has some epic vibe and grandeur, I really like it.

Rob Bass and DJ EZ Rock's "It Takes Two" (just looping the part you're thinking of).

I WANNA ROCK RIGHT NOW

Bojack horseman intro. Just perfect.

Not BoJack's ringtone? Or one of Diane's?

https://youtu.be/tQjdm8BdJO4?si=FSX378hHjqVoLbh5

But a version without the sound effects. Yes, it's amazing.

Funny to see how everyone here tries to have music and stuff that's fun and is pleasant to those around them then you have me who has plus boy to encourage me to respond before my ring tone gets to the horny bit

Professer Professorson's ringtone from Community. It's the 'suspense sound' Dun Dun DUUNNN!

It's a fantastic ringtone when it goes off at odd times. Like during a bad guys lecture in D&D.

Tetris.

Instantly recognisable, loud enough to hear, raises a smile from strangers on the bus.

The Steel Samurai ringtone from Ace Attorney. I don't know why I love it so much.

That's hilarious, I have that too, nice taste. Like the Steel Samurai theme or the ringtone version from Phoenix's phone? ace attorney has such excellent music

My current one is Corridors of Time from Chrono Trigger.
I know someone who has Phoenix Wright's ringtone as their own ringtone, and hearing it go off for the first time felt like a shock, being a huge Ace Attorney fan lmao

Mine is always on silent

Metal gear codec call

This is the way.

Weirdly enough.. Shellshock - 8-bit (Victory Tune)

Even though my phone's on vibrate all the time. Lol.

Daybreak and I only hear it if I have my AirPods in when my phone rings.

I hope you do the little finger wag like Troy does when Abed hums it every time it plays
- Every time. I get a lot of weird looks in public.

Anything I use as a ringtone will cause me to hate it, so I use the Homing grenade sound from Borderlands 2. Looking back on that decision, there are more useful sounds to be instinctually aware of, but boy do I bolt awake when a random bandit has a homing grenade.

My notification sounds are the skill level up sound from Borderlands 2 and the Void Reaver denonation sound from Risk of Rain 2 for important things. I've also used the notification sound and train whistle from Rollercoaster Tycoon.

If I were to change my ringtone today, I'd probably go with Run! from Deep Rock Galactic, or one of the battle themes from FTL. Maybe the baseline from a Death by Glamour cover, but I'd fear I'd come to hate that sound, so maybe not.

See, I have my alarm sound to be different from my ringtone, otherwise I'd end up hating my ringtone too

Bananaphone

Linus & Lucy , but my phone has been on silent for the past decade.

Good one

Discord Rare mix.

Ringtone is made to be one but more fun.

My ringtone is the GameCube startup sound and my Notification sound is the AIM Message sound.

"Highway to the Danger Zone" -Kenny Loggins when my wife calls

Good choice. I really enjoyed both top gun movies. I actually went to see top gun maverick twice because the first time was fantastic and i just had to see it again. I wasnt dissappointed either.

One of the Samsung default ones. It's apparently called "Space Bell". My phone is basically always on vibrate though, so it really doesn't matter much.

one of the pre put ones

Theme from 'The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly' by Ennio Morricone.

Slayer - Raining Blood

It's a mashup someone made of Bill Cosby doing that scat singing nonsense thing he did over the music tracks from Eminem's "Without Me".

The Exorcist theme.

A trimmed down instrumental version of "Beneath the Mask" from Persona 5. I found the song to have a really nice vibe to it.

I trimmed down Glimpse of a Memory from Persona 4 Golden as my ringtone. Honestly it sounds very close to a normal ringtone.

Default Android ringtone for calls.

However my signal/whatsapp message tone is Sergeant Doakes from Dexter saying "Surprise Motherfucker!", which occationally turns some heads in public.

https://youtu.be/5mQVljB7JGw?si=phV8TM7b9YHgBlBd always happy to hear the song and always just a little anxious to hear it because the actual calls always mean something serious.

I used to have cheerful tunes for ring tones but then all my old relatives died in a row like flies and "I don't feel like dancing" felt really out of place. Beth Ditto has stuck with me since then.

I have to change mine semi-regularly because after a year or so I'll start thinking i hear my phone ring while it isn't. Currently it's the Nokia 3310 Badinerie ringtone

I have a ringer that starts at a highish frequency and then with each ring drops lower. I find the changing frequency helps me pick it out from background noise.

Dragonborn

Doesn't matter it starts off quiet because the phone vibrates anyway.

I've been using the Stonecutter's theme from the Simpsons for over 15 years. It never gets old.

The Avengers theme. My alert is Cap shouting "Language!"

Music from the first stage of Marble Maddness from the NES

Before I switched from conventional communication, my ringtone for the longest time was the unsuspecting sound of a baby crying, which once served as an April Fool's joke but also something that predated and went longer than that. Now that conventional phones have tried to make it more and more difficult to actually get a custom ringtone, I don't know what the future holds but know the change I made gives me my best chances of having a ringtone tradition.

Devilish Influence from Ninja Gaiden 1.

I made my own remix of crab rave

I can't find it anymore but for the longest time it was the yell the headless bomb guys make in the first Serious Sam game.

Go Cubs Go

Or

Jurassic Park hold music.

Back when I had a loud phone, my text message alert was the Icarus 1 Distress Beacon from the film Sunshine.

Right now it is a .mid file of A-ha's Take On Me. I plan to change it up soon though. I always use .mid files because they sound classic. The soundfonts, the lack of sustain, everything.

CAFO

Star Wars: the cantina band

Notification: R2D2 sound

But I mostly have my phone on silent

The Ballad of Serenity.

"GTA V Franklin ringtone"

I know it's goofy, but it's some sort of chip tune song that played in the background of an app patcher program that I used forever ago to install some pirated game or app or something.

I have no idea what the song is called and it doesn't seem to exist on the Internet. It's just on my phone as an .MP3 file (and on my computer within a sketchy program called patch.exe). Dunno why I drifted to it.

My text notification tone is the notification sound from RollerCoaster Tycoon 1/2 (ex: "3 peeps have drowned" popup). It works well.

"beep beep beep beep" -leonard nemoy

suicide is painless.

Metal Gear "Spotted!" sound followed by Metal Gear Codec ringing.

Sungazer - Bird on the wing

Dance of the Macabre

Right now it's one of the retro riffs that pixel phones can use but I'm thinking of changing it to the legend of dragoon menu music

Mine is the sfx that ED-E (from fallout new vegas) plays when it detects hostile NPCs.

Add the sound of Boone picking off Legionnaires, and you've perfected it!

Cyberpunk 2077 Rebel path Cello version

The end part of circle of dust - neophyte

Link please?
- Here it starts at about 4:39

The ringtone from Scott the Woz

Mine is Carnival from the default samsung tones. My 7yo wouldn't let me pick up the phone because she loves the music

I clip portions of music that I make in GarageBand on my phone for my ringtones. Right now it’s a song called Cave In. That or a monophonic version of Grande Valse.

Hey There Fancypants - Ween

The intro to Cantaloop. Has just the right blaring horn to catch my attention even at a low volume.

This is my ringtone: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Ljqe4Nj7nBA&pp=ygUKbG9zdCB3b29kcw%3D%3D

And this is my notification sound: https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/blob/master/shared/resources/media/notifications/notifier_dropplet.opus

you used to call me on my cellphone

Hearthstone theme song. Hasn't changed in like 7 years. Maybe some day, but I'm conditioned to it now. Id probably never answer it if it made a different ring. Not that I ever answer it now.

It has been a decade

Forza Horizon 5 main menu OST. Doesn't matter that I use my phone on vibrate though.

cold day instrumental

Obra dinn - Soldiers of the sea

Really good song of you like bells (its also a great game)

Muppets singing Ode to Joy.

Whatever Samsung has as default. Not sure I've ever even heard it

My notifications jingle (for the rare occasions I turn on notifications) is the Superintendent's turn-on sound from Halo 3: ODST. (The first two seconds here.) My ringtone is some weeb shit.

The Fortnite default dance music

The beginning of the main theme from Divinity: Original Sin 2.

Mine is super dated, I've been using it for like 10 year now. It's the 8bit styled Bob's Burgers theme from the Burgerboss episode.

When we do a rewatch of the series I always reach for my phone when it plays during that episode's end credits.

I've got two:

An excerpt from "I am the Doctor" from Doctor Who The Eleventh Hour

An Excerpt from the "Good Omens" Title Theme

Atlas Stone by Haken

"Mood Matrix - Get A Grip On Yourself" from the Ace Attorney series, with a bit snipped off the beginning so it gets right into it.

The same that I'm the GTA V

Two more cool ones I used to have:

Mahna Mahna (muppets) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTXyXuqfBLA&t=17s

and

Muppet martians discovering the telephone: https://youtu.be/KTc3PsW5ghQ?feature=shared&t=152

Old Phone

Mine is the "Sanford & Son" TV Show Theme.

Value Selects "Midnight Pretenders" cover

Imperial Klaxon - a sound effect from a Star Wars movie. And my notification sound is the B1 "Roger Roger".

My general ringtone is a section from Henry Mancini's Pink Panther theme. For family and friends I use Leo Kottke's guitar version of Bach's Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.

The default one.

I just started watching through 24 again and have been really tempted to figure out how to get the phones as my ring tone.

Only problem is I'll never hear it because my phone is on silent 100% of the time.

My own remixed version of my favourite game music.

Fort minor remember the name instramental. I get calls so rarely these days i had to look it up in my settings to be sure.

Recent ones have been "Popular Monster" - Falling in Reverse and "Slumber Party" - Britney Spears.

The guardian target lock music from Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild.

https://m.soundcloud.com/pine-jr/king-ramses-song-man-in-gauze

Mainly because I named my phone The Slab. It's a Note 10+, and I did the whole notification profile as different Courage screams.

midis are great, have a bunch on my phone from NES & other classics. zelda secret flute, f-zero start screen, metal slug theme... so good.

This masterpiece

The vyzvánění I'm using is the song Smejko a Tanculienka – Strapatá

On my previous phones I used a segment of Heavy breakfast machine, a classic.

The intro section to Echo Beach

You know that ringtone from the movie Jurassic Park 3? The plumbing jingle I think? That. XD

I like the way ringtones used to be, and when someone recognizes it, it's a good laugh.

The Trigger Happy TV moment when the phone rings, and you just imagine "HELLO? HELLO?! NO, MATE, I'M BEING DIGESTED! WHAT? NO IT'S CRAP" 😁

I like the kind of ringtones that the people who know it know it and to everyone else it's just a nice ringtone. I've had an elevator version of the Mass Effect theme, and also the intro song from Monsters Inc .
