Hmm how strange.. I was under the impression that every N900 had a Ringtone folder in that path. Well atleast we know what the problem seems to be - mfakecaller is looking for a sound file and a folder that doesn't exist in that path on your handset. On the bright side, atleast it handles the error gracefully

nicholes, it looks like you have a few sound files on your phone. Just for testing audio playback, can run mfakecaller again from your XTerm and we'll include some commands to play one of them? Try this:

Code:
/usr/bin/mfakecaller "nicholes" "" "/home/user/MyDocs/.sounds/Your_Chosen_Sound.file_type"
You'll find that the caller name should change to nicholes, the second "" is empty (which is the image string input) so the caller image will be missing this time (you can add a path to an image on your phone if you like), and the third string is the full path to whatever sound file you have to test on the phone.

Try it out and see if it plays the sound file correctly. If it's not too long, you should hear the sound loop before the app closes (unanswered timeout).

That's what I thought too, is it possible it might be setup differently on different handsets?
