Default and custom ringtones!

[AJ69]

Pixel pro6... I have assigned a custom ringtone to my wife's number.. when she rings me the custom tone plays but also the default phone ringtone plays too... I cannot work out how to stop that.. so it's a cacophony of 2 competing tones.. pretty horrific tbh

Welcome to AC!
Where did you get the custom ringtone?

Welcome to Android Central! Are you using the stock Phone app or a 3rd party one? Also, are you using a conventional carrier or something like Google Voice?

The custom ringtone is just a piece of music on my phone.. as I said originally it plays fine but the default ringtone plays at the same volume too

Oh ok so you select a different stock ringtone but it plays the one you selected and the default version?

Well lol
Then clear the phone and contact app data and force stop it, after set up the ringtone again as long as you have Google back up on everything should repopulate
