After checking around on youtube and also the various websites I finally figured out how to customize ringtones for my contact list. You must first save your "contact" on your phone (not the sim card).
1) Type in the phone number
2) push menu button to add to contacts
3) you will be asked if you want to save it on the sim card, google contact or phone. Pick phone.
4) Add in your entry and save. Now when you go to contacts you will see that your new save does not have a little sim card icon next to it. Just select the contact and hit your menu bar to edit the ring tone. Hope this helps you.

Then try to call that specific contact or number on your Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 using another phone and see it works.
