specific notification sound for text messages - Moto X4 Questions & Answers

When I try to change sound for Text Messages, I am only able to change "notification" sound. But notifications include app notifications, emails and texts, they all have same sound. How can I set different sound specific to Text Messages only?

Lost the text messaging notifications

Hi there!
For some reason I lost the text messaging notifications. "1 unread message" does appear when a new message is received, but no more popup notification and sound. Any idea what could be the case?
In settings, notification & sounds, I made sure that a sound is appointed.

Notifications for email and messages

Is there any software/method to have different notification tones for emails and messages ? I tried to set a different tone for emails but this tone override the default notification tones ( which I maintained for messages )
Gmail notifier for the gmail account will change the color and sound.

Sms and email notification

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

Custom Notification Sound on Whatsapp won't work.

I have a brand new OnePlus 3T, I've changed the notification sounds on the Whatsapp App to my custom sounds. The problem is that whenever I recieve a message I get the default notification sound from the phone NOT the sound I have chosen for Whatsapp. Curiously enough this doesn't happen with messages from groups in Whatsapp, or in other e-mail or messaging apps.
I've tried other sounds, formats and folders and it won't work. For some reason the Default Notification Sound has more priority than the Whatsapp Notification Sound.
Since Whatsapp wouldn't work, I tried to change the Default Notification Sound so it will be the same as my Whataspp Notification Sound. BUT OnePlus 3T doesn't allow you to add new Notification sounds (You can add Ringtones and Alarms).
Help? Thanks!
It also happens with whatsapp Phone Calls. The ringtone is the Default Notification Tone (not even the Default Ringtone). And again, this doesn't happen with Group Chats (which makes this even weirder).
-FIXED-
There was an option to Reset Notification Settings inside Whatsapp, and then it worked. Apparently it was an issue with the Whatsapp Backup I did from my old Smartphone to the OnePlus 3T.

No vibration or sound on Messages

I can't seem to get the vibration notification for Messages app to run. The visual notification comes on the clockface but not soundboard vibration. Is there something im doing wrong? The other app notifications work fine.
In Message app settings on the phone, chat setting, change from default messaging type from auto to text. Also, vibrate on phone for new messages is required to get vibration in watch.
