Expert: - 8/1/2010


Question
I've added a couple of custom profiles. The custom profiles all appear to have the same icon. I'd like to edit some of the profile icons so that I can better tell which one is in use. Is this possible? If yes, how is it done?

Answer
It's not possible to change the icon. If the profile has Vibrate for the tone, it shows a Vibrate symbol and for a ring, it shows a Ring symbol. There's no other way to do it. Not sure why you need a lot of custom profiles. My personal opinion is to just set your normal profile for whatyou need and if you need the phone or text to be silent, switch to the Vibrate or Silent profile. What else would you need to change frequently that you would need more custom profiles?
