Set a Contact’s Ringtone in Droid Bionic

Ringtones can be assigned by contact on the Droid Bionic so that when your annoying friend Larry calls, you can have your phone yelp like a whiny puppy. Here’s how to set a ringtone for a contact:



  1. Choose the Contacts app from the App Menu screen.


    Touch the Launcher button on the Home screen to see the App menu.



  2. From the list, choose the contact to which you want to assign a ringtone.



  3. Touch the Menu soft button and choose Options.



  4. Choose Ringtone.



  5. If prompted, choose Android System as the source of the ringtone.


    Or, if you’re using an app such as Zedge, choose it to use that app as the source of the ringtone.



  6. Choose a ringtone from the list.


    It’s the same list that’s displayed for the phone’s ringtones.



  7. Touch OK to assign the ringtone to the contact.


    Whenever the contact calls, the Droid Bionic rings using the ringtone you’ve specified.




To remove a specific ringtone for a contact, repeat the steps but choose the ringtone named Default Ringtone. (It’s found at the top of the list of ringtones.) This choice sets the contact’s ringtone to be the same as the phone’s ringtone.

Making Slipcovers Fit by Adding Darts

Not all slipcovers give you the nice neat look you want. If you have a slipcover that slides off or pouches out and makes your furniture look tired and lumpy, you can improve the fit by adding darts. Darts are a way of tucking in excess fabric to get a cleaner, more streamlined look. They’re great to apply around curves to get the smooth, rounded effect you want. Think of a tailored shirt or a fitted dress: The contours that hug the body are created with darts. The same principle applies to sofa, loveseat, and armchair slipcovers.


To tailor your slipcover with darts, follow these easy steps:



  1. Turn your slipcover inside out and place it back on the piece of furniture for which it was intended.



  2. Note which areas are a bit baggy, pinching the offending fabric up and away from the surface of the furniture.



  3. Pin it so that the two sections of fabric come together creating a smooth surface beneath it.


    To create a dart correctly, start pinning at one corner and work your way out to the other corner. Unless your darts are big and interfere with the way the slipcover smoothes out on the furniture, you don’t need to cut away the excess fabric.



  4. Sew your darts individually with the straight stitch setting on your sewing machine.




If you have a bit of bagginess on one side of your slipcover, chances are you have it on the other side as well, so create your darts on each side in mirror images to ensure a great fit.
