I want to add a custom ringtone to my handcent sms messaging app so that when i recieve a text it plays what i want it to play.. but i went to notification settings and it wont let me select anything i want to select only the default selections.. can anyone help???
Handcent doesn't support custom tones?
in Handcent under settings<notification settings < notification sound , there is no option to select an "other..." tone... however I can't remember if you make a really short tone if it will show up on that menu...

Is there a way to add some notification tone for message?
coz i want to have my own tone on messages that i will receive..
is it possible?
I'm not sure what you mean. Do you mean a custom notification for received messages? It should be configurable in the default messaging app, but I'm not completely sure since I use handcent SMS which allows you to customize the notification sounds and a bunch of other stuff.

so i must use handcent messaging for me to have my custom tone?
You can create a new folder on your sd card -> DCIM -> media - > audio -> notifications and put your customs notifications in this folder.
You can do the same for your ringtones and alarms by creating new folder on your sd card -> DCIM -> media -> audio -> ringtones and alarms
You will be able to find them in your message app settings.
Hope it helps you

How can I change the SMS delivery tone? More specific, I want to remove it (but keep the notification).
As far as I know, it's possible to change it with Handcent but I want to keep my normal SMS app.

I'm only able to change default ringtone and default notification tone with that.
I've actually solved it now. Not specifically changing the delivery notification tone, but I've made it silent.
I've set the SMS tone to silent and installed SMS Popup to add a new tone for SMS messages. So I'm happy now even though it would be nice to be able to actually have a different tone for the delivery notifications too.
Not happy anymore, my solution made two notifications come up for every message (even though the standard notification was silent).

under Sounds and Display -> Notification Ringtone -> select "Silent"
Hi,
I am trying to change my sms tone .... and everywhere is saying i do this via notification tone under settings and even apps such as ringdroid change the notification tone... but for some reason this does not change my SMS tone ... I remember I did change it once to bubbles because I was sick of my sms and battery full being the same and now I can't remeber how I did it
I am not usind a custom rom, just the stocky 2.2
anyone know how I did it
Thanks,
Xalies
Go to messaging app then go to settings, scroll down to the bottom, there you will see select ringtone.

thanks... I feel my noob showing now
I feel like an idiot...I've been trying everything since I installed Zedge to get the damn default tone to change to silent...could not understand why changing it in settings wouldn't work. TYVM!!
Is there a way (setting or app) to turn off email notification sounds and still be notified by sound when I get a text.
Or alternatively have dif. Sounds for each.
I get so many emails and I have this cute kitty meowing notification. I wish it only meowed when I got an sms.
I use GOSMSpro and you can set individual settings for custom notifications and icon/LED colors tied to the specific person texting you.
That's the only way I know to get a different notification tone for SMS vs what you have set for other notifications... hope that helps.
Email - menu, email settings, notifications, select ringtone, "silent", ok
Text messages - menu, messaging settings, notifications, select ringtone, "whatever one you want", ok

I have changed my notification ringtone in both the Sound settings and the Personalize settings, and it still plays the default tone when I receive a text message, instead of the ringtone I have changed it to and applied. Any thoughts?
Go into the Messaging app, tap the 3-dot menu button & select Settings. Go into Notifications and under Notification sound, select the tone you want. If Default Notification is selected it uses the phone ringtone for calls. At least that's what mine is showing. I don't use the stock messaging app though so I never noticed which tone would actually play.
