Hi,
I want to have a different ringtone for sms alert. Is it possible to do this? I can't stand the standard ones lol!
i've scoured the forums and can't find anything to help me...
Cheers
Rich
as far as i know you can only use .wav format audio....... if you have something you want to use, then copy the files into your /windows directory, dont put them in seperate folder, just into /windows
then when you select all your different sms alerts, you can see the files you placed in the directory , in the list to select.....
at the moment i have bo selecta sms alerts. lol
Yeah but how do I change the SMS tone. when I change the ringtone, the IIs only changes the Call Tone...
Its probably so obvious, but im not good at obvious!
Cheers
Richard
SMS tones are set in start-settings-sounds&Notifications-tab Notifications- drop down to messaging: New text message. If you copy a .wav file in your /Windows folder it appears in the list there and you can chose it. If you want to use mp3, get MortRing from this forum and use that. It is the only small program I know off that sets mp3 as ringtone.
I have been trying to set my SMS tone through the notifications option, but everytime an SMS comes in, it comes back to the default tone. Dont know why this happens!!!
Anyone knows whats wrong?
yes, I have that problem too! Can anyone help out?
can we edit the registry so window will look at sdcard storage for the SMS ringtones???? i knew how to do this for phone call ringtones, but for sms window have different setting.... i keep all my ringtones in sdcard to save space...
thx for answers

You use Photo Contact Pro v5?
Is there anyone out there who can tell me how to (if possible) I can change the text message tone on the MDA Vario. I cannot stand it at the moment. Am I stuck with it for life?
go to start - settings - sounds and notifications - notifications and then choose the tone you want to change from the drop down bar... that should do the trick... *p.s. if you put mp3files on your storagecard, but not in a folder, just in the main folder, they'll appear in the list as well..

I think text message tone only use wav files. Ringtone can use mp3 files.
sorry my fault...
adding wav files for messages etc, they need to go in windows dir/folder.
mp3's for ringtones etc can go on the storage card root or storage card My Documents folder...

My Ringo won't work with Black 2.5 and I've go Profiles for Window Mobile 2.2.0
a little help pls
I was about to post the same. Here Ringo didn't work with the Black 2.5. In the "groups", just vibrate the phone, in the default, when the contact are out of the list, they rings with the windows default song.
Rickyjune, the Profiles for Windows Mobile 2.2.0 have groups for ringing tones? I didn't find it.
Any other program, that works on the WM6, for different rings and sms tones, to different categories?
Photo Contacts Pro - http://www.pocketx.net/products/photocontactspro_ppc/index.html
Gerald_s, thanks, but i'm looking for something smaller. Something pratical. PCP is to heavy to do a little like play songs to some people. BUT, if have no other way...
What's really nice about WM6 is that most of the function of Ringo is in the OS. I no longer use Ringo for that reason (well, it also crashed a lot).
I don't know if you can set ringers by category (I'd imagine so, but haven't looked into it yet), but you can assign them to people. Just edit a contact, and down towards the bottom is a field for Ringtone.

Mcrochip, thanks. I look at that, but when you have a lot of contacts, assign a ringtone one-to-one is hard... But, its native, i'll look MORE on that function.
thats true... but you cannot select SMS ringtone or Call ringtone... only one ringtone for each contact... not very customizable..
SMS tones
I still cannot a small software just to assign sms tomes beside Photo contacts pro. Anyone can help..Thanks
Inesoft address book v 1.67
You might wants to try Inesoft address book software. You can assign caller ringtones but not sms tones. I try to upload the cab file but failed. Anyone can help, promth this message.
IAB167Wm5CrFallen.cab:
Upload of file failed.
hey pals...!! no ringo contenders? photocontacts is a good program but to bulky to perform only a ringtone assigment
thanks!
Hi,
i search a way to reproduce my configuration sound on my ONEX.
I come from windows mobile then i was manage sound for every notification like Battery Low, usb connect, mail, calendar, sms, mms, and some others various settings available on WInMo...
But on Android, i can only manage my ringtone and a standard notification for all sms, email, calendar & more...
Where is the legendary ability to make everything on Android device... Customisation pass by sound too...
If everybody as a "third app" or secret, can you sahre with me...
Rewards ; A generic graphic request !
Root ur phone and get in to /system/media/audio. There is the sounds. If u want to change them, replace the files inside the folders. But remember: the name MUST be the same, otherwise it will not work.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
I think what you mean is customise each app for its own tone? If so, you go into the app itself i.e. Messages (SMS) and in the top right click Menu > Settings > Notifications. In there is where you change the sound. Same for "most" other apps, it's in the app menu itself. To add your own custom tones you downloaded, create a folder on your SD card called "Notifications" and drop te sound in there. Reboot phone so it rescans and your new tones should be available. Worked for me
By the way, you have right ! No problem !
Only need find a way to boost external audio speaker..
Reclam when you want your graphic...

For me the external speaker is loud enough. I wouldn't want to boost it any more as it borders on distortion on some of my louder tones with volume on full.
I use TTS voice (transform in MP3) custom notification.. and voice is very low !!
Already boosted using Audacity !!
Alarms are easy because I have an option in the Clock app to add new alarms to the OS and the custom notifications/ringtones (ogg format) that were copied from my old phone using the Data Transfer Tool show up and work properly. However, no other custom notifications/ringtones (ogg as well) I've added to the system (same directories as the working ones) show up even after multiple reboots. I'm also unable to manually add them since there isn't an "Add new" option for those categories of audio.
Any thoughts would be appreciated

i've had no problem adding custom notifications sounds to my Pixel 2 XL - with one exception - Google Voice. Ringtone, Default Sound, Gmail, Text, Deliveries (Third Party App) all work fine. as with prior Android phones, i simply created a "Media" folder and then within that folder i have the folders "Notifications", "Ringtones", and "Wallpapers" with custom sound files. my notifications are WAV files and my ringtone is a MIDI file. once i place that "Media" folder on my phone's storage and reboot the phone, all sounds are available and "stick" after being selected. again, the only exception is my custom Google Voice Voicemail sound which i can select but it refuses to "stick" and insists on playing my Default Notification Sound and also annoyingly plays it TWICE (double notification). i think this is more of a Google Voice App bug than the phone.

Interesting, the data transfer tool copied the items straight to Noti/Ring/Alarms at the phone root rather than a media directory. I'll try that now.
Thanks Gekko2, looks like it was a combination of the files being 'ogx' (upon further inspection but worked when renamed to ogg only) and not in the Media directories.

glad it helped! now could you PLEASE do me a favor and test and see if a custom sound (WAV File) works as a Google Voice Lite Voicemail Notification on your Pixel 2 XL? Thanks!
I have not had any issues (when adding them manually). However, I do miss the option to add them directly from the sound selection pane like on the original pixels with 8.0.
i solved my problem about using a custom notification on Google Voice. the fix is -
Long Press the Google Voice Icon--->App Info--->App Notifications--->Voicemail--->Sound--->Pick Your Sound
i never knew there was this setting beneath the App Icons let alone that it overrides and "sticks" better than the actual settings within the specific App!
so this still doesn't fix the double notification (i experimented by turning the other settings to "Silent" but that did not work) but maybe the answer still lies in these settings. anyway, i'm just glad i can set a custom Voicemail sound and not be stuck with the "Default". i hope this helps someone else!
I've tried adding mp3 and wav files to Ringtones or Media/Ringtones, and neither have worked even after a reboot.
I'm having a glitch with clock ambient and screen tapping.
Ambient clock will not stay on and tapping in not getting active. Both are on in the settings.
