    Does anyone know if there is a way to change the number of rings for the ringtone selected for incoming calls? In other words, I don't want the time in between each ring to be as long as it is now... It's only ringing twice before the phone goes to voicemail right now. I poked around in the custom ring settings but didn't see a parameter for this I could modify. Thanks!

    I wish it could be done, but that's determined by Vzw and can't be changed.

    You are asking about the ringing you hear, not the ringing that the person calling you hears, right?

    The problem is there is a pause before it starts ringing where it would vibrate, then it rings, then pause where vibrate would be, etc. so it takes a long time. If you get a longer ringtone, it will play longer. Something like this, 30 seconds of ringing, before it would start over.

    There was a post here a few weeks ago about it, but I can't find it atm.

    I found that when I changed it from "ring/vibrate" to only "ring" that the ringtones I had set will play the entire time now. I was going to call Verizon about it but decided to try this first and it worked. This worked for my default ringtone as well as those I set for certain contacts. Hope this helps.

    Hey, thanks for the replies, y'all!

    Looks like this will work as a solution for me... If I turn the vibrate function off it seems to wait less in between rings, which is what I was hoping for. Thanks for all the help-
