Right first off, I expect everyone to come in here and rage about me not reading around, yes can you have personal sms tones, drop then in the \Windows\ folder as a .wav etc etc. Thanks, but that's not what I'm after.
I'm curious as to if there is native or 3rd party support, of a program that will allow me to set different SMS tones for different people, much like the native support in the phone book/contacts for ring tones for various people.
Ideas, suggestions?

I seem to remember reading a post but cannot seem to find the info now that I need it. I would like a program that will allow me to setup different notifications for SMS based on who they come from. Like assigned ringtones for phone callers. Anyone know of an app that will do this I would be grateful to hear from you.
Thanks.
All,
I have searched up and down using google and this forum, and all I have found is people with similar problems but no answers to these questions below:
1. Ring tones for contacts saved to the phone are easy, as is setting a single .mp3 to play for SMS messages, but all I really want is my default ring tones for contacts to play when they send me SMS messages. I know Ringo does this, but it crops my ring tones down. I don't want this. I want the full 3-8 minute song to play for a given contact whenever they send me an SMS message.
2. Why won't my current SMS ring tone stop playing on opening of a notification? No matter what it is, a stock 10 second clip or a 8 minute .mp3, it plays completely whether I have opened the phone or not. The equivalent of this would be you getting a call, answering the call, and as you are talking, your main ring tone is still playing. I don't know if this has to do with windows media player, which I have replaced with the audio manager, which is much better, but it is a huge hassle for the sms message ringer not stop once you've opened and are replying to an sms notification. I don't want to have to have my text messages just vibrate or have no sound at all. I want the whole .mp3 to play the ring tone for the specific contact unless I read or dismiss the notification.
I have looked into Ringo, Phonealarm, and Mobiedit, and none does want I want. Ringo crops my SMS alerts, but plays full .mp3s for incoming calls...It should be the other way around. Mobiedit wouldn't recognize any of my .mp3s. Phonealarm has a lot of nice features, but what I want is very specific.
Any registry hacks for this? Any cabs for this?
I want to thank you in advance for your answers and for all the wonderful information, tips & tricks, and downloads you offer.
Thank you,
Brian

Can anyone point me in the direction of another resource then?
PhoneAlarm WILL do this. You just have to set it up.
Really? Then I couldn't figure this out. Is there a difference between the trial version and the full version?
Thank you for your help and I will report back to see if I can get it to work.
phonealarm does indeed allow you to shut off the notification once you either dismiss or reply to it. I don't know if it is worth 30 bucks. Is there a way to get an 'answer on open' like function for sms?
It does not however, allow me to use my contacts ringers for their incoming text messages. Is there a registry tweak out there I can do to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
I was wondering if there is any possible way to get ringtones set for your text messages & i was also wanted to know if you can set a lock for your pictures and texts. If you can help thatd b appriciated -]
you can download File Barricader for free and it will provide you the option of locking files and folders so your pics will be private. Haven't tried it on texts
Text and MMS messages only support WAV and MIDI files for sounds. You need to put them in the root of \Windows to be seen.
I use MP3 personalised text message sounds through Ringo (google Ringo Mobile). You have to pay for it but it's great - I have different sounds for the people who text me the most, and a generic one for everyone else.
Not sure about changing MMS to be personalised, but I also use an MP3 for my generic MMS sound.
Hi.
I am a System Admin, as well as a member of a Rural Fire Brigade.
I need a way so that I can differenciate between different sources of SMS..
i.e. One contact is for missed pings to the servers - low priority, another is for servers down - higher priority, call out for the brigade - high priority and loud wake up tone
can anyone give me some advice on how to do this. I know I can do different ring tones for mobile calls but what about SMS contacts etc.
Many thanks for any help
Dave
I´ll need the same thing...
Once I used to have a sms chat software, but it corrupted messages often so I discontinued using it, I thing it was vito, but don´t remember
Well.. I don't know of any free solution for this.. but Electricpocket Ringo does this job very well.. it allows u to assing custom sms/ringtone to individual contacts and groups. No individual mms tone though..
maybe also magiccall will do what you are looking for
hey all~
i asked basically the same question recently. i was directed tot he freebie mortring, after fiddleing a lil (to make my own sounds work) i got it working pretty well
~j
hey all~
so i found what, in my opinion, is the best FREE text message (and call) custom tones program....
its called oist (google it as i don't have the link handy) and it allows you to set custom tones (wav format only) for:
calls
texts from unknown senders
texts from everyone
texts from specific numbers
sent text message tones
it can also forward sent notifications to another number
anyhows i tested a few different ones and this seems to work best!
~j
Still playing around with it, but I think oist will work.
Now I just have to make WAV files for everyone.
I found this also but does not work on my wm6.5 touch pro... I have version 1.4
am I doing something wrong?
Hi,
So I don't know how many of you guys are annoyed by I am pretty annoyed by not having custom text ringtones. Microsoft FINALLY put custom ringtones but they left out for text. I text a lot more than I am on phone so I am wondering if theres any way to add custom ringtones for txt. Maybe way to go into registry and change the tone itself but leave the name of it as it is perhaps? Hope someone got an answer for it
Thanks,
Kamal
