I set my default notification ringtone to Guitar 2.
However it only plays when I receive emails. When I receive SMS, another ringtone plays (The default one that comes with the phone). No matter how many times I change it ... It just seems to play that one tone.
make sure you check it in your SMS program as well (open the program, menu>settings)

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...

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.
Hi All,
The ring tone on my M700 seems to cut out after 2 seconds..... The vibrate will still continue but the sound stops.
I have tried different ring tomes including the default wavs and it happens to those too.
I'm not using MP3's as ring tones and the RingTone0 script is correctly set "avpw0r" in the registry.
Anyone seen this before ?
It did work fine untill i flashed WM5 back after trying Mun's WM6.

sorry nogs - i assume that the tone you are using is longer (eg., when played with windows media player), than what you are hearing when it rings...?
also, sorry to be slightly O.T, but how did you set your ring tone to use an MP3? can you do the same with notification tones such as for a new text message?
Hi,
Yea the tone is about 30 seconds long and plays fine if you go through the phone option in system.
The above post says i'm using wavs for ring tones, not MP3's. You cant assign MP3's to SMS notifications. I may be wrong there as there may be 3rd party apps that allow you to do this pocket phone ZEN may be one of them.
Anyways i think it may have something to do with MS Voice Commander trying to announce the callers name but failing.

So I love my HD2, but have noticed that when you set a ringtone for a contact, it is just that a ringtone. This may sound silly, but is there a way, or a mod that will also play the same sound I have set for the ringtone, when I get a text message from that same contact?
Reason I ask, I use this phone for work, I get pages (text msgs) sent to my phone when a job or server has a problem. I then also have my bosses (as well as many others) contact info set up with a certain ringtone. My 6+ year old Motorola SLVR would play the same sound that was set for the contact if the person called, or texted. It made it difficult at times if my phone was across the room to determine if someone was actually calling or just sending a text, but if the HD2 could do this, I could at least separate out a majority of contacts from work pages.
I find it amazing my old 6+ year old phone could do this, but the HD2 cannot.
Thanks in advance!
One can set different ringtone for different event happening with HTC Sense 2.5.
Click Start > Settings > Menu > All Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications.
Pull down the Event field for selection of happening. Set the appropriate ring type and ring tone to your desire.
Thanks, I get that.. I have a different ring tone per type already set up. Allow me to get a little more technical.
Sally - Ringtone = Song A
Bruce - Ringtone = Song B
Text Message notification = Song C
Right now, if Song C is set as the Text Notification, no matter who sends a text, Song C is played.
I want that if Sally sends me a text msg, her ringtone, which is set at Song A plays. If Sally sends me a text and then Bruce sends a text seconds later, I want Song A to play, then Song B to play.
Instead, the way the phone and software work, in the same scenario above, Song C is played both times. Song A and B are only played if the contacts Call, not text.
Pickin up what I'm throwin down?
OK. Understood what you meant now.
I don't think it is achievable with whatever that is available on the phone now.
Only commercial software has that kind of feature.
