Changing Audio Settings
You control certain audio settings on your phone, including the ringtone for incoming calls from all
contacts or a specific contact, where call notifications play, and the volume of the ringtone or call audio.
Change Incoming Call Notifications
You can choose whether you hear sound effects—all phone sounds except call audio—from the handset,
headset, speaker, or the active audio device you set.
For example, you can configure your phone to ring on your headset instead of the speaker. By default,
you hear all sound effects from the speaker.
Procedure
1. Navigate to Settings > Basic > Preferences.
2. Select Audible Ringer and select a location to hear sound effects.
