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.

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!!

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...
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.
get tone picker from the market its free.. you can set any notification with it

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).

not sure if this is the right answer..
under Sounds and Display -> Notification Ringtone -> select "Silent"
Got my samsung galaxy s when it first came out. everything was good. I go into sound options to change notification and ring tones and sms. But now it seems that option is gone. Is there another way to change your sms tones when you get a txt?
Also its a bell vibrant. Its been Rooted!
You have to change the message notification within the message app.
oooooohhh maaaaahhhh gaaaaaawwwddd!! got it
Hey I just installed di11i's 5.6, awesome rom, first one I've flashed. I can't seem to find the option to vibrate on text recieve, its not in the general settings pages or in the messaging app settings page. Any app I can use or osmething to enable this?
text message question
The easiest way is to go to Settings > Sound > Vibrate always
or download a sms program like Handcent or chompSMS
hmmm vibrate always still doesn't make it vibrate when receiving a message.
But Handcent looks like a really great alternative! Thanks
I've been running Cognition 3.04 for a couple of weeks (it's my first ROM), and I'm loving it. I've run across two minor issues that I haven't been able to solve just by messing with settings myself or searching the forums:
1. Over the past couple of days, I will periodically find that my app drawer is completely empty. Anything I update from that point onward shows up in the drawer, but nothing else will until I reboot the phone.
2. I can't seem to change my SMS notification tone. I use Handcent, and despite changing the ringtone within Handcent, the stock messaging app ringtone, and the default notification ringtone under Settings->Sound->Notification ringtone, nothing seems to change what I hear when a new message arrives. The sound that plays is 'Postbox', which I don't have set as a sound anywhere that I can find.
I've tried to search for others with similar issues & couldn't find anything that helped, so hopefully I'm not repeating common questions.
Thanks for any help!
Sounds like a bad flash. Try reflashinv.

Had that happen before. re flash. I was restoring apps and system data among other things wrong. It's a process and don't worry the answers are in the forums

Cool, thanks for the feedback. Will give reflashing a shot

Besides it's a captivate. Best thing since sliced bread. Spread a little cognition on it. Sprinkle some firebird and top it with voodoo and voila!

for the SMS sound try changing the notification sound from the sms settings.
go into your text msg box then goto press the settings button then goto those settings from there at the bottom you'll see notifications.
The notifications in the actual sound settings from the drawer are for emails and such. Texts have their own "notifications" setting.

Good grief I'm an idiot. I've been changing the sent Notification sound this whole time in Handcent. My eyes just slid right to 'Notification sound' & didn't notice this was in the 'Sent message . . .' section. Well, it's just down to the app drawer now. Backing up with TiBu & charging up the battery to prepare for the reflash in a little while.
Thanks for the help!
