Ok, I think there is an app for it but I wanted to know if it was standard on TW.
I want Ringtone A to ring when anyone in my contact list calls and Ringtone B to ring for any other callers including blocked caller ID's.
Is it possible without downloading an app? And I don't want to go into each contact to do it.
Sure is. Open contacts, click the groups tab. Long press the group and select edit

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.
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

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..

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.^_^
Guys,
Do any of you use individual sound notifications for either the Phone or Messaging Apps?
I appreciate titles such as GoSMS Pro and Textra for messaging can handle individual sounds but it would be good to hear if the standard apps on the G3 could achieve this?
You can do this with app from gp called MegaSound

Sorry but I don't think I explained it clearly enough..
Basically what I am looking for is an app that when one of your contacts is called into a notification be it a phone call or a text message it plays a sound that identifies the caller.
In the past I have created dozens of individually identifiable text/phone alerts that I use to identify who is either phoning or texting me.
GoSMS Pro and Textra to name but two I have used in the past to give each contact their own individual sound notification.
I was hoping rather than install GoSMS Pro or Textra again maybe I could use the default phone and messaging apps but with some way to identify each of my contacts?

Thanks.... I guessed it would end up like this.
Yet again it's the phone that has individual ringtone but messenger can't have the same.

Thanks but I have two problems with this:-
1. It doesn't allow you to select a pre-made sound file.
2. Are you sure this allocates the same sound file for an individual to both the phone and messaging apps?
I think I saw this mentioned before but I can't find the thread it was in for the life of me.
I really need to be able to set custom ring tones per contact. I have clients that pay for 24/7 support and I have set really annoying and distinctive ring tones per client. I have no way to do this on the Razer phone. I tried using Zedge (I really don't want to do this as I have made my own tones) and setting a ringtone to the contact in the app but it doesn't seem to work and I see no way to do it in contacts, as you would normally would.
Any big brains out there have some thoughts?
