Honestly, it's such a royal pain to do anything with audio in Android that isn't VLC. I don't bother with changing any of the audio settings, so it's whatever the manufacturer says.
I put all the Cyberpunk 2077 sound effects on my phone, for ringtone and messages. Now I'm confused when I play Cyberpunk.
I did the same hoping playing Cyberpunk would helpy anxiety when getting a call. Nope, no I get anxious when I get a call in a videogame
Default-Mantis Lords theme (Hollow Knight) Spouse-Monster Smash (Monsters Inc.) Mom-Linus and Lucy (Peanuts) Brother-Party Ain't a Party by Queen Pen Text notification-Koopa sound
Oddly enough my dad doesn't have a custom ringtone, may have to look into that. Everyone else isn't special enough to get one.
Dance of the Macabre
Went gaga for mass effect years ago and my ring tone is still the galaxy map tune. Easily recognizable, I sometimes link up with other fans and tbh I can't be bothered to change it xD
I still set custom ringtone and notification sounds even though my phone is on silent 70% of any given day.
It's been various songs from Everhood 1 for a long time. Deadly Premonition 1 Life is Beautiful before* that.
OWOL's theme right now:
Just had to switch my phone from tablet - no usable number - to phone.
Default ringtone: silence.
Some address book people get a custom ringtone. Not if they keep calling, more an emergency thing. Nuisances and acquaintances stay with the silence and they'll eventually send me a message Not On SMS.
I hate the phone.
Lee Jackson's "How'd I dod" from the Rise of the Triad OST.
I have the GTA San Andreas message sound for notifications, my friends always chuckle when I get a message.
Samsung default one. It's funny when I'm at the hardware store buing supplies for work in the morning and a phone rings there's like 5 builders who all check their phones.
Back when I had the last monophonic Nokia and you could order ringtone by SMS, I got the Morrowind theme.
On the flip phone I had that let me set random MP3s as ringtone, I used the Oblivion theme
My first shitty Samsung Android phone, "One They Fear" (dragon battle) from Skyrim.
Now: Nokia Tune (device default, HMD Global Nokia 5.4)
Remember punching in code to get a ring tone
Mr Peanutbutter's House theme
The melody played at the end of every Invincible Episode. Idk why, I really like the power it has.
Notification is that Aliens2 Movie ping sound from the military weapons. Because more pings means there is shit going on (wife sends a lot of angry messages)
Epic Sax guy ringtone. Portal 2 button sound as message tone
The transponder snail sound from one piece anime. It will be this till the end of my time.
I have a bunch. The original theme songs for Buck Rogers & Battlestar Galactica stand out. Some Archer clips for alert sounds. For awhile there I was making a bunch of them, but I don’t really change them up that much so I stopped.
One of the stock ones. I had my phones on vibrate only for years, but when I started WFH full time with the pandemic, I turned the ringer back on so I could hear it if I was in another part of the house. I don't care enough to download something else for the ringtone.
I did download a new tone for my alarm, though:
Dave Brubeck Take Five
Barracuda by Heart. I feel like it was made to be a ringtone.
Silent.
All default sounds are set to silent, then I selectively set tones for apps/contacts.
This ensures I only get sound for specific things.
I have this one that says "ring ring". Like there is a recording of someone saying that.
Enyo Morricone: Theme from The Good The Bad and The Ugly
How do you ever pick up the phone
Violent pornography by system of a down
LPT for android notifications;
Android doesn't give you the separate option for banner + nosound. It's all or nothing.
However, if you have a 15sec audio file with silence, you can set the sound to that and still get a banner.
mine does

I don't get calls
I went with the Jack Bauer 24 ringtone for a while.
