Is it possible to have different notification sounds for different items. Im coming from windows mobile were I could set one for email,sms,mms, and just about any other sound that came out of the phone. All i can find on my evo is to set a single notification sound for everything. Or am I looking in the wrong spot.
thanks
Under, gmail settings you can set one ring tone, for talk another. I assume other email accounts, text and stuff is similar. I am checking...
under messages, you can set a separate one for sms, and I am guessing but I assume you may be able to customize ring tone based on individual contacts, or at least groups
..It looks like if you open the People app, you can select a contact and set a specific one for that person.

I tried searching the internet and xda-forums, but found nothing. I hope this isn't a duplicate request.
I have 4 different e-mail accounts configured on my TyTN. I would so much like each of them have their own notification sounds on new e-mail. I have one account only for my system monitors alert e-mails and it would be great to have this alarm siren scare the beep out of me every time something went wrong. But obviously I wouldn't want that for my other e-mails.
Thanks for your time!
No-one? Anything? *bump*
There's an excellent Program that will do this
It's called "Inbox Tones" by Qorefunctions (http://mobileqore.moonfruit.com/)
It allows you to set a unique ringtone for each email account, and also for individual emails (ie specific persons) and also for groups.
It's solid and well worth the $
I would recommend that you download the Trial version and see if it does what you want.
But before buying it, I'd wait a bit - cause a little Birdie has told me that they ar ereleasing a new App for the PPC next month that combines the features of both Inbox Tones, and their other excellent program LED Alerts, and this App will also allow repeating alerts. It's NOT going to be offered as an 'Upgrade' to current users of Inbox Tones, so you if you like Inbox Tones you might wait for it to show up.
Hope this helps!

Thank you. The yahoo/gmail push program also seems cool. I am going to download the trial and see if it up to snuff.
Here's my problem:
In the rom i have now (diamond slim v4.0 for wizard) i do have the same notification event that is being triggered by a regular text message and a flash sms (class 0 sms). I remember having it separated in one of my previous configs, and i'd like it this way. I simply use a prepaid sim, that receives a flash sms with my account information after each call i make, and i hate hearing a loud ringtone (i use for text messages) everytime i hang up.
So i would like to generate a new event for flash sms, or even assign flash sms to different event (like one of already existing, mms downloaded or anything else) - is it even remotely possible? i've took a look at a registry keys regarding this topic, but no luck yet...
any help appreciated
My work wants to send me sms messages when I'm on call so they have to be able to wake me up. However, I don't want every text to be ear shattering. Is there a way to configure it so that the urgent texts from my company have one ring tone and everything else has another?
Alternatively, is it possible to set up different notification sounds for each mailbox? I'd like to have my work email have one sound and my personal email have another.
Much thanks.
Try Ringo for different text message sounds at:

I'm not sure about how to have different sounds for emails though.
Thanks a lot, that's exactly what I wanted!
Hi,
Ideally, I would like to get just an icon notification with e-mail, but a vibrate+sound+icon when I get SMS.
I went to the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications
And under there I find two entries that seem to be relevant:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65A-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408} (which describes itself as "Messaging: New e-mail message")
and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65B-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408} (which describes itself as "Message: New message")
I didn't find any that explictly called itself "New SMS".
So, if I set the first one's "Options key" to only show an icon and the second to noise/vibrate/etc, it seems that both SMS and e-mail use the first and ignore the second.
Is there any way around this?
Thanks,
Michi
editing the notification registry is a bit different. The number value tells it whether to ring, vibrate, vib+ring, etc.
Whats wrong with going to start-settings-sounds & notifications and editing them there?
I did go there.... same story, I can't seem to differentiate between emails and SMS they seem to use the same setting. So I thought maybe there was a way to get there via the registry.

If you go into the settings>sounds¬ification>notifications, then hit the drop down box for New Email Message and uncheck the box for play sound and uncheck the vibrate box as well and it will only show you the notification when the email comes in. Then you have seperate options for the new SMS as well.
I haven't figured out how to stop notification sounds on emails while allowing them for texts. I get over 100 emails a day between my email accounts and am going nuts. Is there a way to only allow sound alerts for texts? It seems that you have to have sound alerts for emails & messages or no alerts at all. Am I just missing something in the settings? I came from a Note 3 which allowed me to set up sound alerts for everything individually. I only want text alerts. Any apps out there anyone can reccomend for the G4? I'm tired of hearing the phone alerts in the middle of the night when the spam emails are rolling in. Thanks in advance.
You can either go to email settings, select the account, go to the notifications area, select sound and scroll to top and select silent or go into Priority Only notifications mode and allow messages (and/mms).

Thanks. Hope this does it.
