Is there a way to change ringtone?

TheMidnightNarwhal · 09-29-2018, 04:24 PM

The car's ringtone when I get a call through bluetooth sounds like a damn warning like a nuke is going to exploded. This high pitch beep, really scare the shit out of me when I get a call.

Can we change this or there is no way at all?

Turn the volume down on the incoming calls...

And no, not possible on E9X.

Actually yes you can use the ringtones from your phone through the car. It's a coding feature in CIC. Once done the phone will push the audio through your car. Whichever ringtone the phone has selected you will hear.

Sooo...do you know what the coding parameter(s) are?

Lol yeah. At least I found a semi solution, like 6ixSpd mentioned in this thread, I just lowered the volume of the ringtone. Like when you get a call and turn the volume down, it will only turn the volume down for the ringtone and not your music. So at least it's not blaring in my ears now and my music can be as loud as it was.

You can actually use a more pleasant ringtone with coding. I have done it through Protool using expert mode.

I can't remember what it was actually I changed but it's the same ringtone heard on an F10 (5 series)

However, it doesn't sound as pleasant as in an actual F10, but it's way better than the nuclear warning blast of the standard ringtone.
