How can I get my xda to make a sound when a sms message arrives ?
Have ticked the box in sounds and notifications for new sms message but still it remains quiet when a message arrives.
When you select the soundfile for a SMS-message and press the "play-button" to preview it, does it sound then?
If not, the file could be in a format that your PDA can't play.
It sounds absolutely fine using the test button, just doesn't work for an incoming message.

Ive managed to set my audio files as ringtones but is it possible to set them as a SMS recieved tone?
yip, put the file in the map windows on your mobilephone and choose this file as your receive email sound. PS: i didnt test it with wma but it must work!!!
I'm almost sure its the New sms option in the sounds and notifications , not the new e-mail one.
in fact you can choose sound for many notifications in settings/phone/other settings/ and chose email, sms, even msn messenger notification sound.
when i test it i can only choose my alien.wma
when i change the phonering in notifications
it's not present on the list if i choose sms recieve or mail recieve
You have to copy the file in the \Windows directory and il will then appear listed for SMS too
As far as I know (on XDA I), you can only assign wma files to ringtones. SMS tones need to be wav.
It seems they use different audio engines.
i've tried to copy it to windows and windows/rings
and non of those locations matter to the list of my
sms notification or any other non phone edition spc
notification for that matter
i tried that too, and i conclude that it's not possible to set wma files to sms notification... it has to be wav...
regards

SMS incoming notifications use the standard Windows Mobile Notifications system, so you can use any WAV file as a Notification.
Prepare your required Incoming SMS sound as a WAV file on your PC, then copy it to the MyDevice/Windows folder of the XDA.
Now open Start/Settings/Sounds & Notifications/Notifications and find the "Event" selection box. Find Message: New Text Message (or New SMS) in the list and select it. You then see the options with tick boxes. The Play Sound option has another dropdown, from where you can select any WAV file available.

Yes, this I know... But I want differentiate ringtones in agreement with phone number.
For example:
incomming SMS from +420603123456 - ringtoneA.wav
incomming SMS from +420598654321 - ringtoneB.wav
incomming SMS from +421800456654 - ringtoneC.wav
Do you get me?
Sorry- I misunderstood the question! I don't think anyone has developed a way to do this yet.
Is there any way of making my magician play my normal message tone, but shutup when I open it? (I have a long message tone - and I want to keep it) also would like to know if there is a fix for stopping full message alerts when in a call, and maybe change for a discreet tone.
message alert tone
Soory to other you but nobody is answering my blog, and you seem to have solved my problem. When i try to change my message alert tone ,hte only options i am given are the default message alerts, ive tried copying tones into the windows ring folder but still only get default tonesthe previuos process works fine for my ring tone, can you help?
Your notifications have to be in wav format. Or they will not work.
-This goes into the /windows folder
Ringtones can be in midi/wav or mp3 format
-This goes to the /windows/ringtones
Here are some wav files I made which you can try out

Hello,
My wizard no longer rings when i receive a message. Rings just fine when i receive a phone call, but just displays the notification when receiving a message.
I've checked the sound options and it is set to the default Notify sound, that plays if i press the test button.
What is going on? How can i fix this?
Thanks in advance
any software you used to play sounds files? there reported cases where there are some confusion on the program to use to play files. Just to be sure, why using the same file (the notify default sound) as your ring tone, and see if it works. Also try with the same found file with Reminders.
Hey, does anyone know how to change the notification sound when you receive a SMS? I have the short standard "tune", but I want it to be like the sound you get when you tap a pencil ONCE on a table.
I can't find anything in the manual. Do I need separate software?
Regards

Settings->Sounds and Notifications
go to Notifications tab at bottom of screen
For Event: Choose "Messaging: New text message"
Then choose the settings you want.. sound file/vibrate etc. hit OK and you're set.
And if you'd like other sounds than the ones suplied on device, than drop some .wav files in the \windows directory on the device....you can them pick them in the above described way
SMS sent sound
Has anyone sussed out how to change or mute the sound the trinity makes straight after sending an SMS? The menu has every other option except that one and the actual file cannot be deleted!
Not only wav files can be dumped in the windows folder, mp3's will work aswell.
Works on WM6 anyway

Use TrinityHack to disable it
Hi I have a question to ask. Whenever I received a sms, the notification sound will be played til the end even I had already read and close the sms. Is it always like that on a Kaiser or is there anything I can do to disable it?
I still want to have the sound though.
