[Q] Separate Text and Notification Ringtone - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all.
I don't know if it's the correct section to ask this Q. But I'm currently having this issue only on my G1.
I need to separate Text Message tones from Notification tones, right now I've seen only Phone ringtone [That's OK] and Notification ringtone, which applies for Text msgs and all other notifications, i.e also when am only plugging the phone into charge.
Is there any way around this?
Thanks for helping

This can vary from ROM to ROM, but normally you can just go into messages, click menu, settings, notifications settings and select from there.
You can do the same with anything just change where you click the menu button

Wake up for text message, not for email

I noticed that my phone will wake up when I get a text message, but when I get an e-mail it does not. In both cases, the sound notification occurs, but I was wondering if there was a way to get it to consistently do one or the other. i.e., get the phone to wake up for both e-mails and text messages, or, only have the sound go off for both and have the display stay off.
Thanks in advance!

Check out the sounds a notifications. There are many options to play around with in there. I'm sure your answer lies within.
Get there by going to
Stat > Settings > Sounds & Notifications.
My ATT tilt does the same thing. In SETTINGS > SOUNDS AND NOTIFICATIONS, all settings are the same for the two items.
If my phone is asleep, it will wake up, show the message notification and play the sound for a text.
But for an email, it dosent wake up, but it does play the sound.
Let me look in the registery real quick and see what it shows.....
this is how it is..
emails do not wake the phone.. been like this on the 81/85 and now the 89

text message vibrate - change?

is there any way to change the way the tilt notifies you of a incoming text message? atm no matter if my phone is set to vibrate or ring mode, anytime i get a text message, it vibrates, i would rather set it to a ringtone or a shorter vibrate

duuuuuuuuuddddeeeee....like, totally noooob question duuuuddeeee
take a gander at "Sounds & Notifications" somewhere under Settings. once you open the Sounds & Notifications configurator, go to the "Notifications" tab and pick "Messaging: New text message" from the Event combo box and configure away!

Vibrate on SMS/MMS?

I don’t know if this is a bug with my rom (never used vanilla rom) or if its just a missing feature but when my phone is on Vibrate Mode (not silent), then it doesn’t vibrate when I get a SMS/MMS... Only way for me to know I got a msg is through the trackball light or the notification bar. Is my phone messed up or can I add this feature?
I am using kang-o-rama (cyan 506)
Go into Messaging, then settings, and you can enable vibrate on messages there. You can also customize the notification for messages too.
thanks, cant believe i missed that. im so used to haveing all the notification settings in one menu with my older phones

Just turn off the notification sounds via settings /sound /notification sound. That will apply to all notifications though, sms, whatsapp Etc.
This reminds me... Is there any good free app that will allow you to set individual tones for contacts and apps such as FB and other games that notify you when its your turn to play, etc?

You can change this setting per account without changing the system notification sound level. In the email account settings you can specify the notification bar alert, and the sound / vibrate. Set the sound to silent to mute any account.

Notification ringtone will not change

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.
