Right guys, im after a bit of help here, i need a different sound for when i get a new email, so that i can tell if the message is an sms or an email.
Ive had a listen through the OEM ones on the tytn but none are really any good, so just wondered what everyone is using? To give you all an idea, i am a mobile pc engineer so i around customers all day long so it cant be anything silly.
What are peoples thoughts?
Most of the phone sounds ive got on mine are ripped from the star trek lcars console sounds......prolly not appropriate!?
haha i wish i could mate, but your right, probably would be best if the customer hears "beam me up scotty!" :lol: :lol:
Try this, I use this for SMS and a normal WM5 sound for email.

I use the bionic man sound. Let me know if you're interested.

Hey all,
I use this one for incoming email messages.
(Well - not exactly - I trimmed it to remove the "Message for you, Sir" and left it with the arrow noise only)
Works for me
anyone like this one?
I used these

Hi guys, i am new to this forum and after going through some of the threads i can say that this is a gr8 forum to find help regarding ppc phones. Hence, I hope that someone could solve the problem i have been having with my sms ringtone.
I just bought an Imate Jamin a week back and i am definitely loving it. Anyways, the first thing i did, is make a few custom incoming call and sms ringtones and set it up on my device. Now the incoming call ringtones are working as usual but the sms ringtones have a problem. A particular sms ringtone is around 15-20 secs long, and when i recieve a new sms, the ringtone keeps playin even after opening a new sms and also after closing it.
As far as i know from previous experience, the ringtone should stop playing once i have pressed the appropriate button to open the sms. My friends are using the same sms ringtones on their nokia and motorolla phones but they dont have such problems. Anyone have any ideas as to what the problem might be.
I can't answer you this question but have a request: do you have some nice sms ringtones to share with me??
I would appreciate....
Thanks!
Yeah sure man. I 'll give you the one i am using at the moment. However, the ringtone is in wav format and i cant seem to upload wav files on this site. You might have to give me your email add or if you know a better way to send the files to you pls let me know.
Also if you want some really cool ringtones and other stuff, go and take a look at this site http://homesite.mobile9.com/
Thanks for the site! I sent you a private message with my e-mail.
All the best to you & New Zealand!
Having had many Nokia phones in the past, I am used to the two double beeps meaning that I have received an SMS message.
Is this available anywhere as a ringtone so that I can use it as the "message notification" sound on my Vario 2?

Yes, you must copy the ringtone in the /windows directory... after, go setup / notification and you shoulde have possibility to choose the ringtone that you have just add...
Please... I have tried a lot of time this sms tone with a good quality... I have found only midi files mp3 monophonic with poor quality... could you send me your Nokia message tone? tnx

I think you misunderstand me. I know how to install it, but I do not have a copy of the Nokia message tone. I too am looking for it.
If I get a copy I will happily share it with you.
Sorry Philip, I was been careless!
Thank you... If I find it, I will be glad to share it with you, too!

Excelent, I wanted that too.
Excuse Me Boss You have a text message
Alert-Excuse Me.wav

hey everyone
i'm new to this forum, have read around and found alot of useful info about the tytn.
but there are two issues i havent seen anyone talk about on this or may be its just me.
first, i cant seem to find an option to text message contacts that are saved in my SIM. Can you not message contacts in your SIM? or am i doing something wrong here?
Secondly, how do i set my ringtone as the alarm tone as well? because the sounds for alarm are too short and i need someting that will play for a while.
can anyone help me out with these ? any help will be appreciated. Thank You in advance
For the alarm tone, you need to copy a .wav file to the WINDOWS folder of you device. It should then show up in the drop down menu on the alarm page.
Unfortunately, you can only use .wav files and not .mp3. I've also noticed that files larger than 30kb wont play which means the tones would be short.
oh ok.. i tried to put .mp3 file in the windows because i noticed the alarm tones are there but i did not see it when i was setting the alarm so i guess it should be .wav and no more than 30kb i guess?
thanx alot.. going to try that
is there a way set different tones for receiving a text message and different tone for receiving a call? i did not see an option for that
also about text messaging.. i cant see an option of texting a contact if they're saved in my sim.. is there a way around it?
thank you for your help
anyone....?

when you open contacts and select a sim contact it asks you do either to make a call or send a text

thanx for the info.. i put a .wav file into windows folder and the size was 798kb and it worked
figured out everythin except messaging sim contacts..
i go in contacts.. there are no contacts so i go into menu .. sim manager.. and go into menu .. no option of text messaging.. i even keep the scroll wheel pressed on a contact and only options are to edit, delete or call.. etc but no text messaging.. so i'm guessing the contacts have to saved on the phone !?
You're not the only one, I had the same Issue with my SIM contacts and text messaging also
Spent HOURS on the phone arguing with the iMate Support Helpdesk guys who all use the same stock-standard response "Have you soft-reset? Try a hard reset? I know you say you've done it but do it now while Im on the phone? Didnt work? I dont know then?"
Problem no longer exists with WM6, I also made a thread on a local forum:
http://pressf1.co.nz/showthread.php?t=86250
Unfortunately I dont think they're about to start patching WM5 for us, so I figured it was time to go back to WM6 again (Using Schaps 4.30 this time), and so far so good... pics up my SIM contacts fine in messagins now!
thats a releif .. thanx!!
so i guess i'l b upgrading to a different rom soon enough
Hey guys and girls,
Ive got a Samsung Omnia (please no booing ) and I need an application to hide text and or mms messages. I work overseas from time to time with my business and my wife and I swap MMS and text messages to each other while I am away. Having a new phone means everyone wants to check it out and i certainly do not want anyone stumbling across any MMS or text messages my wife has sent me ;-)
I have already well and truly searched this forum and the only software I can find is by evolvens and it doesn work.
Im sure it couldnt be to hard for someone to code a little piece of software to hide sms or mms depending on who sent it?
Sorry if ive posted in the wrong section, id be willing to pay for the right app and im sure many others would as well.
Cheers
Dave
hey, i ran into a problem in my last relationship where i ended up dating 2 chicks... so i had their sms' saved using ez secret sms 2.0. basically, you can set it up to run in the background, and you set certain contacts to be received in this program instead of outlook. the program can be named anything you want. so i named it something boring like system priority. you click it, and it brings up a calculator. you put in the code you specified, and hit ok... and it opens your "secret inbox." you can also set it to notify you in some way that you received a text from whoever. i set it as "islanders won!" for one chick, and "rangers lost!" for the other... pretty simple program to use, and it works fairly well.
if you want to hide just the pics, you could always just save the pics and encrypt the folder using resco explorer with a password or something. but if you really want to save the actual sms, this program worked fairly well for me.
I agree - SMS Security is great - I use it on my Diamond with no problems
I don't think it willl work with MMS though. As the post above - save the image from your MMS into your main files in a private folder. Call that folder something odd and I'm sure you friends won't open it. If you really want to protect the images, you can lock just that file with Resco or I use VisCrypt
Thanks hays and ou2mame for your input, I will try ez secret sms,
hays is this the same program you use on your diamond?
Thanks again guys

Yes it is. It works 100%
It is easy to switch it on and off reverting back to normal diamond SMS
I've emailed the author to suggest a few minor tweaks and will report back
Hi there, anyone know of a program that works on HD2 that allows you to assign different sms tones to different ppl? Did have Text Message Secatary from openmarket, and was working, but since I updated to new T-Mobile (UK) Stock rom, it not longer does, despite what rules i apply. Found PhotoContacts Pro but this seems abit overkill for what I want, Sure others want this as well, and despite contacting the author of Text Message Secatary, had no help from him. Also tried Justtones but that didn't work! Any help would be magic!
take a SD card... insert it and make a folder called "audio"--> open it and then make three new folders, called "alarms" "notifications" and "ringtones" then you copy the new sms tone to the notifications folder.
cheers, stephan1
edit:
ok... this is not what mobile secretary is doing... I´m sorry
sms tones
wrong post my badd
re tones
I know where to store the tones, think you misunderstand the point, I actually want to have a different sms tone for different ppl, i.e 1 for wife, 1 for work, 1 for best mate, so just by hearing the tone i would know who the sms is from. As i said Text message secatary used to work, til i updated the stock rom, but now doesn't.
Any more Idea's?
people>all people>(pick person)>edit contact>(scroll down)ringtone is this what yuo were looking for?
Only commercial software can achieve that. Don't recall seeing any freeware capable of that.
Photo Contacts Pro
http://www.pocketx.net/products/photocontactspro_ppc/
the above statement is true fully though those programs just Change registry keys to achieve that
