[Bug] Incoming Call trigger
- Thread starter Dtrieb
- Start date
I've just uploaded a patch fix to the Play Store for this issue (and a couple of other very minor ones), hopefully it won't take too long to review and will be up soon.
Hi, I just downloaded Macrodroid because I wanted to be able to have a separate ringtone for incoming contact calls versus non-contact calls. I found the sample template for this online and it looked good. However, when I implemented it just now on my pixel 8 phone running Android 14, I discovered that the macro runs, but it doesn't run fast enough to change the ringtone correctly.
Instead, a non-contact call rings with whatever the ringtone is set to originally on the phone, but it leaves the ringtone changed to the non-contact option. Then, when a contact calls right after, that call comes through with the non-contact ringtone. It also appears that I would need to have a complimentary macro to reset the ringtone back to the the normal one I want for contacts. But this is no good by itself unless the macros run fast enough to change the ringtone before the first ring.
Please let me know if you have any suggestion about how this could be fixed

"I found the sample template for this online and it looked good" - please provide a link.

Also, I found a template for the same macro already waiting for me inside of MacroDroid, so I assume this is a well-tested macro. Is it possible that this used to work in the intended manner, but that's some update (either to MacroDroid or to Android) has broken it?
Thanks
How to set one Ringtone for Contacts and another for non contacts?
Is there an Android App that can perform one ring for anyone in my Contacts and another ring for anyone not in my Contacts? I know how to go in and set individual ringtones, but I have 350 contact...
