I finally released a version of “Custom ringtones for your contacts” that implements every basic feature I wanted to have for a first stable version, so I think it deserves being called 1.0 .
Apart from some bug fixes, this new version is translatable and allow you to set a ringtone for callers with a hidden phone number and for contacts not in your address book. The new settings are available from the address book settings dialog.
The settings dialog with the extra ringtone buttons
For now there is only an Italian translation, but any help to get more is appreciated. Don’t worry, there are just 8 strings to translate!
To propose a new translation just go to the Transifex component page, download the .pot source file, add the translations to it, login to Transifex, and upload the file by pressing “Add a new translation” and setting as target file “po/XX.po” (where “XX” it the language code, for instance “fi” for Finnish, “de” for German, etc.). If you don’t know how to use gettext translation files I suggest using Poedit or gtranslator.
The custom ringtones application is now available both from extras-testing and from my personal repository:
Install from my personal repository
(follow the link on the N900 browser)
Update: I released version 1.0.1 containing some new translations: German (by NightShift79), French (by Alban Crequy), Brazilian Portuguese (by Humberto Sgrott Reis) and Swedish (by Andreas Henriksson). I will add more when I receive more.
Update 2: I released version 1.0.2 containing a crasher fix and some new translations: Albanian (by Ilir Gjika), Dutch (by Daniel Holsboer) and Spanish (by Fernando Borrego Polo).
Update 3: I released version 1.0.3 containing some new translations: Russian (by Misha Ketslah), Norwegian (by Stian Husemoen), Korean (by KwangHee Cho), Czech (by Pavel Fric), Hungrarian (by Balázs Bárány) and Romanian (by Bogdan Vernescu).
Hi.
Awesome!
I just did a german translation, but I’m somehow unable to upload it…
maybe you can have a look and upload it?

thx

Unable to upload it because it fails with an error? Your .po file is invalid; you have to put the translation where msgstr is, leaving the msdid as is.
Also the comment at the beginning should be filled.
Try using Poedit, it could make your life easier.
Look at the Italian translation to see how it’s done: http://www.transifex.net/projects/p/ringtoned/c/per-contact-ringtones/view/po/it.po

So…
I requested a new ‘german’ translation team. afterwards i was able to upload the *.po file.
A file called ‘po/de.po’ has been submitted to the Per contact ringtones of the Custom ringtones for Maemo project by NightShift79 6 minutes ago.
But it’s not visible on the page, yet.
Guess I have to wait…
And how does it work? How to get the translation onto my phone?
LikeLike
When you request a translation it sends the file to me and I verify it.
I just wrote you an email.
To get the translation on your phone you have to wait for an update or compile the .po file to a .mo (I think there is an option for that in poedit) and copy it in /usr/share/locale/XX/LC_MESSAGES/ (where XX is the usual language code).

I wonder if it’s possible place the “Set custom ringtone” button not in the drop-down menu but directly in the contacts view.
or maybe add a dialog with the same behavior like the ringtone selection in profiles.
(example photoshopped)
Oh… and plz don’t flame me for asking Marco if he’s willing to work even more 😛
He’s great, he did an awesome job.

That would be nice. Is there already a community translation to Persian of the official Maemo apps?

A similar button should go into the edit dialog and not there, but there is no proper (nor easy) way to do it.

Just to confirm, does this version require wav files for the ringtones (and behave slowly otherwise) or can we use mp3s without any worries? Either way, thanks for the great work.

Hi Marco,
I have been trying to upload a translation file, but I keep getting an error message “You need to be in the ‘None’ team of this project for being able to send translations to that file target.”
Could you please advise what I am doing wrong? I have tried several different options in the “Select target file” in addition to just entering it in, but still get the error “You need to be in the ‘None’ team of this project for being able to send translations to that file target.”
Hope you can help.

Hi there,
I don’t know what I’m doing wrong so I need a little help please.
I installed the current version of the app directly from your site to my phone.
I’ve reeboted my phone.
After that I called myself from another phone (without setting a custom ringtone) and there is a huge delay… My phone vibrates 3 times and only aftr that it stars ringing.
I set a custom ringtone to one of my contacts (.mp3) and then I asked that contact to call me… the exact same delay… the phone vibrates 3 times and after that starts to ring.
I uninstalled the application, and after that I installed it again… the same results, PLEASE HELP!

Hi!
I sow that you added romanian translation to your application. I guess this will be available only with romanian localization for maemo. N900 is not supporting romanian translation. Can you make such an application?
Send me all the text in english and I will translate it in romanian. Then you can make a deb file with Romanian Localization for Maemo!
Please help romanian comunity!
