Sms tones - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can u have a custom one on dhd?

You sure can, on CM7 you can put the ringtone in
Code:
/system/media/audio/ringtones
I've used .mp3's and .ogg files and they work fine. I'm sure the location is similar on Sense ROM's.

For a message tone?

For SMS tones use
Code:
/system/media/audio/notifications
Alarms
Code:
/system/media/audio/alarms

settings, -sound,- notification,- then Android system. Ringtones you've made should be located under there. However when making ringtones how you save em is what they can be used for, meaning once you make a tone and if you save it as ringtone it won't show up, has to be saved under notification ringtone.

Try handcent. Worked on my epic 4g. Or try using whatever app u used to dl ringtones and set it via that app.

Android separates out your media and your notifications/alarms/ringtones so that way your notifications aren't cluttered with 1000 songs and your songs aren't cluttered with ringtones. If you want to use a specific song as a notification, go into a file manager and on your internal sd (not external) follow this path:
media>audio>notifications
and put your song in that folder. If it doesn't exist, create it. This way Android will put that song in with your list of notification sounds. Same goes for alarms and ringtones:
media>audio>alarms
media>audio>ringtones

Using your stock music player, find the song, select menu>set as .... and make your choice ....
Also .... there's an app that is as old as Android on the market that you can use to trim and set ringtones .... ringdroid ..... get it!

Help needed [ROM]EQDKP Sense 3.5 - GB2.3.5 [m1ndh4x8r mod]

Hi does any one else get a problem with the stock message app it sometimes shows the contacts number instead of there name upon receiving a message but if u click there picture and then send message it flicks from there number to there name which fixes it until u next open or receive a new message then it flicks back to the number
It's driving me nuts because half the time I don't know who there from unless I click there picture and click view or send message
Does anyone have a fix I'm willing to donate some money

Try to backup your sms/mms messages with MyBackup Root from Google Play, delete all messages from the messaging app, restore the backup and immediately reboot your phone.
Something like that already happened to me and I fixed it this way. Good luck!

I tried but
What ROM u using ? It only happens on this one

What I write below applies to the EQDKP Sense 3.5 Rom.
Are you using a startup app manager? If you do make sure you don't disable "Messages" app on startup.
If you do you won't get names on your sms. Only numbers. Happened to me. I spend lots of time fine-tuning my phone so that it does not load unneeded stuff.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using xda premium
I don't use any startup manager
I've also noticed that it always shows numbers in the notification popup and in the pull down bar if there clicked but if I click messages it shows the names
Very strange anyways thx for ur imput
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using XDA Premium App
Make sure you have the contact's full international number in your contact list, ie. +44 for UK numbers
Got it thx man
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using XDA Premium App
That was usefull. Thank you.
weird i have the same problem and i dont think adding the international code before the contact number is a valid option cz this didnt happen in the stock rom so i believe there is a fix out there !

Jelly time question

Tried to post in the relevant thread but didn't realize I need 10 posts. What I would like to know is how do i set separate tones for sms and notifications? I'm sure I was able to in previous versions/roms. If somebody could repost this in the jelly time thread would be much appreciated.

You probably need to go into the settings of the SMS application you use. If that doesn't solve anything try using GO SMS from the store. It's free and it's a speedy sms app that lets you customize a lot. You can have your own sms notif separate from the system.
mount your phone as a drive and you will see foldrrs - ringtones --- notifications ----- drop your sounds in them -- unmount restart then wander in sound settings
There is nothing in the settings menu of jelly time.. So by the sounds of it a messaging app is my only option

mount your sdcard to show folders - did it this aft on JT12
menu - sys settings - device - sound - ringtone [select] - default notification [select]

figured it out, had to assign sms its own ring time through the settings menu of the actaul message interface. Can you tell me the difference between "JellyBean - JELLYTIME for DHD/Inspire4g" (which I am currently using) and "UnOfficial AOKP JellyBean Nightlies"??
About the jellytime rom i amnot trying to complain or affend rb :goodi know he works very hard and has a family to take care of but people on the the development say that it is super buttery smooth but there is still some work to be done to the smoothness of it i cant wait till he gets triple buffering completely working

[Q] Ringtone and Notificationtone

With my galaxys3 I was able to assign each contact ringtone, and notification separately. Now I have bought the HTC 816. Here I can only assign ringtone in contacts. Is there no way per contact assign a seperaat notification sound its own?
Hi it is possible just go into the people app and find the specific contact and select the contact towards the bottom of the page there's a button on the screen that allows you to assign different ringtones hope that helps
