On many Nokia devices, you can use ring tones to differentiate callers. You might assign a special ring tone to a person or a group of people. This way, you will be able to tell who is calling without checking the phone screen, so you can quickly decide whether to take the call.
Set a ring tone for each caller.
On a Series 60 device, you can simply open the Contacts list (i.e., the address book) and open the contact person to whom you want to assign the ring tone. Then, from the Options Ringing tone menu, you can select a ring tone for this contact. Notice that all audio files in the Gallery appear on the list as well.
Series 40 devices do not support per-caller ring tones. But they do support per-profile ring tones.
Setting a ring tone for each caller group.
On Nokia phones, the Contacts list (i.e., the address book) can organize contacts into caller groups. Each contact can belong to multiple groups at the same time. For instance, on my phone, I have caller groups based on the contacts' relationship to me (e.g., the Family and Work groups) or the contacts' geographic location (e.g., the Austin and Dallas groups). You can specify a different ring tone for each caller group.
Series 40 devices also support per-group ring tones. To change the ring tone for a caller group on a Series 40 device, select the Contacts Caller groups menu and then select a group (i.e., Family, VIP, Friends, Business, or any other you have named). Use the "Group ringing tone" option to select a standard ring tone, or use any third-party tone file in the Gallery.
