Custom Ring Tone?

Postby Handoogies2.0 » Sun Sep 26, 2010 1:17 pm

Anyone know how to upload a personalized mp3 as the track one will hear when they call me? I know its possible as I hear different songs all the time when I call locals. What I want to do is this, record (in Chinese) "I don't have any money, I don't have a home to sell, I don't want to rent your home, please hang up now" on repeat, this way hopefully all those real estate vermin will hang up before I pick up. They are driving me NUTS!!!!

I just ask them if they speak English and they quickly hang up.

^ Its the physical act of answering a useless call 10 times a day that bugs me. If you started speaking english you would get a lot of "she me? wei? wei?"

I usually just say 4 words : do you speak English? And they immediately hang up.

Get yourself a smart phone and just block the numbers. I must have more than 50 blocked by now :)

Not a chance. Your comical calling tone would only arouse their curiosity instead of giving up the phone call.
