Is there any add on for the Exec that will allow me to have a different notification sound for a Delivery Confirmation text (marked as from System Administrator on Vodafone).
I like to get a confirmation back but I only want a very short sound for it, not the normal notify sound I get with a normal text message!
Any ideas?

Don't know if this will work - but I noticed the other day that you can assign ringtones to specific contacts (I think) - maybe you could set up the SysAdmin as a contact with a short ringtone - I don't know if that would work for texts. (I've not tried it at all).
No, this only works for Ringtones, not Notifications from text messages.
where are all the default sounds for text notifications kept?
Mortring does the job. Search in the google for it. I'm using and an can assigne diferent rings for instance for notifications.

Ive heard of Mortring, but can you tell me if it will allow a ringtone based not on a number but on a named string, as the test I get back for delivery confirmation doesnt have a number associated with it, it has the words "System Administrator" on it, no number at all.
Well i think not, because the one thing the app can do is to apply a ringtone to an unidentified contact, contact with no categories defined, by categories. The same for text messages.
So basically it functions using the number and the string used by the appz is the number.
Here is the topic made by the author of the program and you can ask him.

Greetings,
Aprt
Thank you for that, im greatful
Thought I'd tag on this thread.
I have just got two phones, on each for me and the good lady. She wants to know if there is a way of it reminding her that she has a text - currently the phone makes a noise once and then unless you open it up to check, you have no idea if you have a text.
Her old phone used to make a tone every few minutes if she had a text.
I can't see any settings in the phone to do this. Are there any apps out there that would fit the bill ?
Any advice greatfully received.

I don't know any apps, but you can go to Start>Settings>Personal> Sound and Notifications>Notifications>New Text Messages and check the "Flash light for NO LIMIT". This will ensure if you receive any text msgs that the indicator light will flash orange if you have any text message and it will only disappear after you dismiss or read it.

Phone Alarm from http://www.pocketmax.net/ will do this, and a lot more besides.
As for my problem, Mortring doesnt seem WM5 compatible - Oh well
I was going to say
You could read http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=9736&highlight=vibrate+play+registry
and have a play. Let us all know if you get it to work.

but then I thought I'd have a look myself. Looking at the registry, text message notification is in notifications not sounds. Anyone know what the options are in HKCU/ControlPanel/Notifications/*/Options are ?

Hi,
I would like a more intuitive messaging application. Can the standard messaging application be replaced and/or disabled. Ideally I would like to direct text and mms messages from different people to be routed into different folders and to password protect some of these folders if possible.
I would also like to kill the messaging 'envelope' icon that is displayed when a new text is received. I never want to see this.
Any idead for any/all of these, the last one is the most important to me.
many thanks,
malty
I'd like that too...
Please help us... :wink:
Thanks

Ehehe! This looks like a one man - many women situation!!!
Anyway, to disable messages notification go to : Settings - Sounds and Notifications - Notification - New SMS and uncheck everything.
As for filters, folders and password i can't help, but if your friend owns a PPC too you could install Jgui ASMS (http://www.jgui.net/asms/) on both phones and use its encryption feature.
You can also try Smart Guard Pro: http://www.handango.com/PlatformPro...806&Ntt=smart guard&productId=185976&R=185976

That's kinda pricey...
I don't think it has the option of sorting incoming messages into different folders...
Did anyone try it? I don't want to spend $40 for something I won't use...

I dont think this gets rid of the envelope icon in the top system tray. Thats what im after above and beyond everything else
Does anyone know if smart guard is wm5 compatible? I've emailed the programmers but havent had any replies
InfoSharp or create your own with SKschema
InfoSharp does all theses things http://www.mycnknow.com/.
SKschema has many nice scripting tools but would be more difficult since you have to create your own scrips. But it does work nicely.

Question:
Does this program use default SMS location or does it use its own?
infosharp does this perfectly (after some poking of the settings). The manual isnt very well translated into english but you get the idea eventually will report back any problems as they occur
many thanks for the recommendation
Malty
Sounds interesting...
Is InfoSharpe a bolt-on for the existing SMS software in the phone, or does it replace it? If so, is there anything the standard software does that this doesn't?
How long is the trial period and can it be cleanly uninstalled if not happy?
Andre
it runs sort of parallel to the original messaging app so you dont lose any functionality. Im using infosharp for sms and messaging for mms/email etc. Infosharp obeys the rules you apply to each contact or group (or every contact) and one of those rules is to not display in inbox, which means it doesnt get passed to 'messaging' and the txt messaging icon does not get displayed, as i required.
If you dont have 'do not display in inbox' checked, you can carry on and use messaging as normal.
At the moment I have a few folders set up, girlfriend, mates etc and it routes them and notifies me exactly as i require. Some contacts have no notification at all and i only know theres a message if i actually check the folder theyre routed to. Some have modified notifications and some have the ordinary notification.
SMS can be routed to custom folders and be available in only infosharp or routed to the inbox where they are available to both messaging and infosharp.
as it runs in parallel i cant see theres a problem uninstalling. It doesnt seem to mess with any system files but as i havent tried this i cant say for sure.
Good stuff.

Are you able to create backups of all the folders? And does this program do it, or do you have to get something else?
Thanks
Luke
again its not something i've tried but there is an export / import function and also theres a file where i think everything is held anyway. (*.srm) They also do a program for the pc which can read the sms.
check the manual out here

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.
Rob
I use the bionic man sound. Let me know if you're interested.
ok having a dum momment here, where do i add a new ringtone?

Monty Python
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
i wonder if there is a way to add more ringtones for SMS? because i can only use my mp3's or other sound effects for calls.
thanks!

Buy or Download Ringo Pro or Lite, I use it for my SMS tones so i know if its worth goin to my phone or not haha.
Add a 'notifications' folder to your memory card.
Copy the tones you want to the folder.
They should then be visible in email, calendar, sms tone settings.
@CodeMonkey
at first i put 'Notifications' but didn't worked out, LOL i thought my magic wont have any problems recognizing 'Notifications' and 'notifications'
it needed to be all small letters to work AND ALSO the 'notifications' folder must be inside the 'Music' folder of your card.
Thanks alot CodeMonkey you ARE my HERO =p
btw i can't forward messages sent to me to my other friends,
also there is no inbox, outbox,sent messages etc.
SMS in magic is like a chat...
Thanks heaps, was just trying to figure out how to do this!! Didn;t need to put notifications in music though, just straight on the sdcard and it worked a charm.
Thanks!

Open your message and do a long press, this will bring up the menu to forward your messages. This applies to the stock Message app and chompSMS.
@aniriand
my bad dude, yes you it also works even if the folder is not inside the 'Music' folder
@BigRD
Thanks dude for that one oh men im really loving this phone
Note that you can do the same for alarm tones with a folder called alarms (on the root of the card) and ringtones (with a folder called ringtones).
download rings extended from the market... it easy to use
@whitechocolate
i dont have android market on my phone, just slideme
and i think making folders is better than installing apps
@CodeMonkey thanks for that another useful info ^_^
were not allowed to post warez on here but hopefully i can do this...

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
