On some OEMs (e.g. Samsung) the system notification channel settings only offer notification sounds for the calls channel, even though it uses USAGE_NOTIFICATION_RINGTONE, so no call ringtone could be selected. Open an in-app ringtone picker with TYPE_RINGTONE instead (as done by Signal). As the sound of an existing channel can't be changed by the app, the calls channel is recreated under a new versioned id (NOTIFICATION_CHANNEL_CALLS_V5__<timestamp>) keeping its other settings. The system channel settings are still opened if the channel is disabled or no ringtone picker is available. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-opus-5-5 Signed-off-by: Marcel Hibbe <dev@mhibbe.de>
The app ships its own default sounds ("Librem by feandesign") for calls and
messages. These are app resources, not system sounds, so neither the system
channel settings nor the system ringtone picker offer them. Once a user
picked another call ringtone or message sound, there was no way back to the
bundled default.
Tapping the call or message sound now shows a dialog offering the bundled
default or "Other sound…", which opens the system picker. The picker's
"Default" entry now refers to the phone's default ringtone/notification
sound, so it means the same on all devices.
Message sounds are chosen in-app like call ringtones. As the sound of an
existing channel can't be changed by the app, the messages channel is
recreated under a versioned id (NOTIFICATION_CHANNEL_MESSAGES_V4__<timestamp>)
the same way as the calls channel, sharing the recreation logic.

Fixes choosing sounds for calls and messages in Settings → Notifications.
Problem 1
USAGE_NOTIFICATION_RINGTONE, so no real call ringtone can be selected.Problem 2
Solution
TYPE_RINGTONEfor calls andTYPE_NOTIFICATIONfor messages. The picker's "Default" entry is the phone's default sound.NOTIFICATION_CHANNEL_CALLS_V5__<timestamp>,NOTIFICATION_CHANNEL_MESSAGES_V4__<timestamp>), keeping its other settings (importance, vibration, lights, badge, lock-screen visibility)._V5/_V4versioning is unchanged. Bumping it still drops all channels of the old version.🖼️ Screenshots
