I cant get my default notification sound to change - I can change the gmail new email sound to change from within the gmail settings but for pop email, sms etc the sound doesn't change no matter which sound I pick?
Am I doing something wrong?
Tks
Have a look at the guide below.

Personalizing with sound sets
Each sound set gives you a different combination of sounds for your ringtone and notifications such as incoming messages, email, calendar event reminders, and more. By switching between sound sets, you can instantly make HTC One X ring or alert you with fun sounds when you're out with friends or change to subtle sounds while you're at work.
Creating a sound set
Slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap > Personalize.
On the Sound tab, tap Sound set.
On the Sound sets screen, tap .
Enter a new sound set name, and then tap Done.
The newly created sound set is then added to the list of sound sets. You can assign different tones to the sound set to your preference.
Changing your ringtone, notifications, and sounds
Slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap > Personalize.
On the Sound tab, tap Sound set.
Choose a sound set you want to customize, or create a new one, and then tap Apply.
Change the ringtone, notification sound, and alarm from the Personalize screen.
HTC One X automatically saves your choices to the current sound set.
Deleting sound sets
Slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap > Personalize.
On the Sound tab, tap Sound set.
Tap .
Select one or more sound sets you want to delete.
Tap Delete.

I think the poster meant that regardless of which sound you set as notification sound, it will still use the default notification sound. Just to clarify, even though it wasn't necessary as I've owned an htc android phone before, I did read the guide as i was stumped too. I can select any custom sound for notifications, it just doesn't use it. It's different for email notifications though, that will use the sound I set without problems... Anyone have a fix? It was like this since it first came out of the box.

Happened to me on an earlier release of leedroids rom I just reinstalled and it fixed it
If on stock all you can do it factory reset or run a RUU.

I want to ask, how to separate ways ringtone and notification settings. I mean for ringtone and notification volume.
The stock Calendar app on my Acro S completely fails to change its notification sound. I don't know for sure whether it was like this on ICS but on stock (rooted & deodexed) .96 JB it's just not working. I go in to Settings, tap "General Settings" and then "Sound" under Notifications and Reminders. I use Sound Picker to choose a notification sound, tap "Done" and when it goes back to the General Settings screen it still shows "Default ringtone". This happens with the standard Sony tones or with tones that I have created (my tones are .mp3 files, in \system\media\audio\notfications\ and with permissions set to "-rw-r--r--", like the standard .ogg files already in there.
Anyone else seeing this, or have any ideas how I might fix it?
Hmm, well it turns out that changing the Calendar notification sound using Media Storage works fine, Sound Picker doesn't. Who knew?
Sound Picker worked just fine for Mail and Messaging. Oh well...
On the above settings, I am trying to add custom ringtones. If I click on "Ringtones" I get a list of ringtones to choose from, but at the bottom of the dialog I also have "Add Cancel OK". I can click on the "Add" and add my own ringtones. This is great.
However when I click on "Notification ringtone " I do not have the option to Add any new tones. Why is that?
To complicate matters a bit more, in this list of available Notification ringtones I have a bunch of sounds and at the top there is "Silent". If I select this it would mean that all my incoming messages will be silent.
If I want however to silence just one or two contacts, I go to the contacts, select the contact, edit it, and try to modify the field "Message tone", but now this list does not contain "Silent" anymore!
In other words, I cannot add a custom sound file for "Notification ringtone" (there is no Add button) and I cannot select "Silent" Message tone for a particular contact as it seems this option has been removed! I can only select "Silent" Message tone in the Sound settings for ALL messages!
Is there a way around this?
Anyone know a way to get a custom notification sound on the watch. Not ringtone but notification sound? Wanting to change ringtone and notifications
sure search for "Smart wear notification" works like a charm.
Hello I have a question regarding ringtones for the HW2.
I moved .ogg files from my PC to the HW2 folder - SDCARD/Ringtones.
Âfterwards I rebooted the watch. On the sound notification tab the titles are listed. The pre-listening of this files are also working but when I select it and then I make a call on the watch it only vibrates and gives a single repetetive "ding"-sound. Is there something that I have to adjust?
Thanks
