Mine has been Hedwig's Theme from Harry Potter for awhile now.

My ringtone is Irene Adler's moan. I couldn't find a version of it for my text tones, but I gladly settled for this one. I love it, but man, I do have to admit, I feel a bit embarassed whenever it goes off in a large group. I instantly think of Molly, ha.

@The Woman: I thought of using this, too, but then people would look more irritated at me as they do now :D

I hate cell phones and only carry one in case I get stuck in a tornado or something. I leave the damn thing off. If people want to find me they will. My friends and family go ballistic because I refuse to learn to text and my voice mail box is always full.

My ringtone is "welcome to London" downloaded from the Sherlockology page. It's taking up all music capacity on my phone and it was the only file small enough. Sadly I cannot change my message alert, I'd love to hear "bored!"
It says about me that I have a very old phone,nothing smart about it, and if I had another one, I'd choose "deeper into Baskerville" as well :D Or parts of "prepared to do anything", I love the increasing music!
My mobile is also more an emergency phone. I prefer landline or email.
Also, if you have a nice mp3 Sherlock file with less than 720kb for me with the cool parts of Prepared to do anything, you're my new best friend :D :D

I need to find a ringtone for my work phone during the Eurovision... Hmm, I wonder what to pick!

And I will need to change my text alert on my smartphone, I mean imagine meeting important people having to listen to instructions and your phone in your pocket going "Don't talk out loud, you lower the IQ of the whole street!!" A bit not good I imagine

Mine's Staying Alive... I was hesitating a lot about changing my ringtone to this. But one of my Sherlockian friend told me to give in to the temptation. And... I really don't regret. Makes me smile everytime someone calls me.

Richard Brook · April 30, 2014 10:13 pm

Hahaha same!!! I have staying alive and have to listen to most of it before i answer!!!! And when I do, i listen to what the person has to say, and then say "if you are lying to me, I will find you, and I will skin you!" Or "I'll make you into shoes..." Sooooo funny!!! And my notification sound is Adler's 'erotic sex noise' hahaha the looks I get!!! XD

Lilith · June 20, 2014 8:03 pm

My ringtone is the opening theme of Sherlock as well. My whats app notification sound is Sherlock saying "Thank you for your input (door bang)", my SMS alert is Sherlock saying "text me" and my email alert is Anderson saying "so we can read her emails, so what?!"
What does it say about me? ~ i need help

side note to Criosdan, "Ain't no grave" must be my favourite Johnny Cash song!

Sherlock Holmes · June 20, 2014 10:05 pm

I have the riff from How It Was Done on my iPhone. I made the edit of it myself and cut and pasted so the riff was repeated over and over. It sounds pretty cool.

gently69 · June 21, 2014 7:44 am

I still am with the opening titles. Tried Vanishing Underground but it's too low in the beginning which makes it too difficult to hear if the mobile is in the handbag.
But I discovered that it is perfect for the alarm clock which I use when I'm on the road.

Draconia · June 29, 2014 5:19 pm

My ringtone is the laughing of my son...and my messagetone is the communicator theme of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.
So what does it say about me?
Lol I am as crazy as the girl next door lol

Consultivedominatrix · July 17, 2014 6:38 pm

Mines Staying Alive

ComeAtOnceIfConvenient · August 9, 2014 9:46 pm

My ringtone is music frim Sherlock, not the opening credits but the other popular one.

My text tone is a star trek communicator! Whenever it goes off I say "it's the away team calling" because I'm a little sad...

I briefly changed my text alert to "Fine... we'll start with the riding crop"

but I changed it back to "Don't talk out loud, you lower the IQ of the whole street"

ArwendeLuhtiene · August 10, 2014 9:54 am

My ringtone is The Game Is On theme, and my text alert is the TARDIS landing

This Is The Phantom Lady · November 30, 2014 2:37 pm

I just changed all my notifications... because *someone* dropped and bit her phone so the entire screen cracked and I had to get a new one...

My ring tone is a Christmas version of the Sherlock title music

Text tone Sherlock: "Catch you later..." - Moriarty "No you won't!"

Google Hangouts: Smaug "Where are you?"

Facebook: Benedict "Oh my GOOOOOD" (the high pitched squeal he made seeing the Star Trek crew at the TIG premiere...
