The Silent Ringtone
Yes, I know. Got silent ringtone from long, long ago. But I don’t really read the papers, nor do I watch the news, nor the occasional printout of interesting crap happening out there. So you can’t really blame me for being slow - and besides, loads of us *still* don’t know about this, what…
For those, who like me, have had no idea what this is, basically a ringtone whereby we, er, teens, can hear, but adults cannot hear.
Excerpt from NY Times : In that old battle of the wills between young people and their keepers, the young have found a new weapon that could change the balance of power on the cellphone front: a ring tone that many adults cannot hear.
Yes, that means, in class can use to replace the “Silent” mode without anyone knowing. Anyone of authority, that is.
It should sound something like this (this is just a sample):
It’s supposed to sound like a VERY high pitched sound! Like EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Edit: Salihin couldn’t hear it from his speakers. He used earphones then can hear..?
The REAL “Silent” Ringtone can be obtained from HERE (Right click it > Save Target As or Save Link As).
Play it with your favourite music player (Winamp, Windows Media Player, Foobar, iTunes, etc) and ask your mum or dad whether they can hear or not… (You might wish to laugh at them, together with your brother/sister, when you realise they cannot hear)
Then, try copying that to your handphone and set it as your ringtone! Heh.

Hello webmaster Interesting insight into The Silent Ringtone” - yandao.com. I have often thought about this myself. I think high-pitched ringtone is somewhat related. On Friday I have the day off, so will look more into it.
