Notifications

Hi guys just wondering if its possible to have different tones for various notifications like sms,emal etc or is it just one tone for everything.Thanks.

If you already have some music on your phone that you want to turn into tones/notifications etc, download Ringdroid from the market. Worked well for me!

thanks mate will give it a try

I've got the unbranded Desire from Carphone Warehouse.
On this device, if you go into gmail app, you can change the notification sound for just that app in the settings. The default choice is "use default [notification] sound", but you can chose others.

You can use any sound they just have to be in the right place.
On SD cards root make folders. Then they will show up when looking.
Alarms - For alarms obviously.
Notifications - For message tones.

I'm not sure if your question has been fully answered; but I was wondering the same thing. How to have a different tone for sms, emails, facebook etc.
I know some apps allow for this in their settings but I can only see one place for 'general notifications' and this applies to all types of notifications.

For facebook open the app press menu then settings. You can choose a sound in here.
I think sms and email has to be the same. Someone prove me wrong please.

OK, got ChompSMS and now can uninstall SMSPopup as Chomp pretty much does the same thing. Great app.

Different notification sounds for email and text?

Hi Guys,
Is there a way to set different notification sounds for email and texts at the same time?
I thought the HTC Desire would have this option available as standard.

Get stock Android email app, its much better than the Sense one and it allows you to choose your own notification sound.
For text I recommend Handcent sms, it allows you do the same and again - much better than pre-installed one

[q] sms/mms/voice mail/email notification tones

Forgive me if this has been already answered as I was unable to locate an answer for this specific phone. Is there any way on our T-Mobile Galaxy S2s to have a different tone for each notification? I tried to change indivudually under each of the repective settings but no dice. 1 notification tone for all. Really? I hope there is a work around.

there's an App for that...
I use Rings Extended + RingDroid + Zedge, you can find them in the market free
then you can choose from a wide variety of alerts, music, mp3, or even make your own!

I got a similar question... How can I set my messages to vibrate only? I only get it to vibrate with a tone but I don't want that

set vibrate to always? (in settings > sound)
also you can do it independently for each App that you use, like SMS, Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, Gmail etc
each of them has their own separate settings

[Q] Help assigning ringtone to GMail

I was wondering if someone could tell me where the menu choice is to assign a ringtone to my incoming gmail mails? I don't see it where I normally do. I have assigned custom ringtones to my text messages, Google Voice, RINGTONE, calendar events and email without a problem -- I just don't see the same setting choice in Gmail. I'm problably looking right at it and missing it, but... if someone could help, I'd sure appreciate it.
Thanks in advance

I just want it to be silent haha.

I don't think there is an option for a custom ringtone. Not in my version of Gmail anyways. I think it falls under the Notification Ringtone in the Sound settings.

You can change it by going into your Gmail then click on menu/more/settings/"youremail" then scroll down to " Labels to notify" choose "Inbox" you will see Ringtone - My Gmail then you can choose what ever ringtone you like.. Hope that helps

or by settings in noled in accessability

Your directions were perfect, jmares! Thank you so much for the info. I knew it was there somewhere, but I guess I didn't click further into that particular box's setting. I now have a custom ringtone for gmail again. It was much easier to get to/change when I used gmail on my HD2! Anyway, I hope this helps others, too!

Custom Contact SMS and Email Notifications QUESTION

Is there a way to customize the Contact: SMS and Email Notifications within the Contacts application or is a 3rd app needed?
I know there is a section for Ringtone, but what about SMS and Email?

Im not sure even 3rd party apps can do it..
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA

Email notifications come from Gmail or the Email app so custom notifications are not possible. I think Handcent SMS has the option to assign a contact a custom ringtone.

Ya, I was there was a way to have a custom sound for each notification. Email, text, etc...

For emails i dont think so, for text you can use a 3rdparty sms like gosms or handcent, or you can use ringo https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.electricpocket.ringo

It would be a bit of work but you could get Gmail label notifier and make labels for different contacts and then assign specific sounds to the labels.

How to Change tones
The phone is capable of doing it by itself without the need of a third party app, simply go into the app you wish to change the notification tone for example gmail.
1. Open app>menu button>more> then go into settings
2. Choose which account if you have multiple accounts or just select your account then go all the way to the bottom where it says labels to notify and choose your inbox. It's set to default by default which is the notification set generally in your phones settings.
3. Choose whatever notification tone you want, be it a custom one you added yourself into the notifications folder on your internal or sd card memory or ones that are on the phone by default and voila! You're set.
Example 2 SMS app (default since I use that one)
1. Open app (obviously)>menu button>settings
2. scroll all the way to the bottom and choose "select ringtone", it's set at default just like the default on gmail, changing this doesn't change your default, only changes the tone for sms app.
Have fun changing your notification tones to be able to differentiate different forms of mail, same method works for fb messenger etc, only app I haven't found a way to change the tone is yahoo mail, but that's unique so I have no need to change it.
Hope this helps.^_^
