Hi there,
I have flashed to the ENERGY ROM and am loving it!!! thanks for the great work
However, despite setting my own mp3 tone alerts for new emails, sms, mms etc it just does not work
To set a tone for these alerts I went to: settings, sound and display, notification sounds, and set the tones required...
What am I doing wrong? Someone please help me?
thanks
Try posting in the EnergyROM thread in the Development forum...

Put your custom sounds/ringtones in My Device/Application Data/Sounds.
Go in to Sounds & Notifications and make sure the Programs and Notifications boxes are checked.

Folks, iam not so familiar with Smartphones yet. I tried to set a ring tone for incoming SMS. There are some sounds selectable in a Listbox. I choose one and press the play button but i can not hear any sound.
What do i wrong? Where are these sounds to find in the directory structure?

HTC Wizard is a Pocket PC not a Smartphone. What brand do you have?
hey, im not sure the problem with no playing, but im curious to know if there is a way to add different sms tones on the wizard. I know how to add ringtones, just not the ones like sms or alarm tones. All there is are the rubbish windows that sound awful. Any help guys?

add ne .wav file into the windows directory then go to... Start -> Settings -> Sound & Notifications -> Notifications -> Event: Messaging: New text message... and they shud b in the drop down list
I have got the thing: you have to activate in sounds and notification (the first tab): check programs and check notification
After this it works.
Still doesn't work
I have tried to copy my .wav files into every available directory, but can't find them back in the pull-down menu.
Also, I cannot find any Windows directory on my MDA VARIO.
Any help?
yeah, where are sounds supposed to be located for the other (non phone ring) events to "see" them in the Sounds & Notifications list?
i put some sounds in both Rings and My Music and the non-phone ring events just don't see them (phone ring event does)!
Damn MSFT, why do they have to make simple things difficult!
Found it!
The non-ringtone sounds should be copied in the Windows directory, which can be found in the Explorer of your PDA/MDA. Also the Windows directory can be found if you have set up your Active-Sync correctly.
Just click my Mobile device and then the Windows directory should appear.
Works for me perfect! anyone with some cool *.wav's?
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?

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.

thats the way to go, best little bit of kit ive installed on mine so far to be honest.

now its allllll gone!!!
lol
Hi,
I dont know when or why this has happened, but suddenly my sms sound was gone. I read some threads that referred to this happening because threaded sms was disabled the wrong way. But i have threaded SMS enabled, aswell in settings as in HD tweak. I turned in settings - sounds & notifications on: Events Programs and Notifications. Although i originally had those switched off because i dont want those sounds. With that turned on now when i get a text message I hear: Boss you have a new message. Like wtf... I just want the original SMS sound back. Can anyone help me? Btw i Run Dutty's rom 1.7
greetings.
Little bump i really want this fixed and searched entire XDA and google cant find nothing.
same problem here.
i'll wait with you.
No sound, no vibration on sending/receiving SMS
Yeap, same problem here! No sound, no vibration anymore. I did a hard reset just to have the sound/vibration again. After sending one SMS, same old sh...!
==> Edit: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings and change "SMSAvailable" to dword:0 causes the problem! Setting the d-word to 1 brings back sound as well as vibration!
no sound with text message recieved

So sorry to hear this. You seem to be not far away from a hard reset, right...? Good luck, anyway!

What is the ringtone you have selected ? Make sure that ringtone file is available under the Windows folder.
By trial and error, I found that SMS ringtones are picked up from Windows folder only, whereas all the other tones (incoming call, reminder etc) are picked up from Windows/Rings or My Documents/My Ringtones folders. I could be wrong - or have a bug in my HD - but this works for me ....
Cheers !!
Hi guys
I wondered how I was missing all the texts my mates were sending me and then I found that when I get a text the sound is not working for some reason.
I've checked the sounds are there and working - it's set to "Rooster" sound which is fine (have tried others too) and the volume is turned up (ringtones work fine) but it still won't make sound when a text comes in.
I've done a soft reset etc but still not fixed it. Is there some other setting it could be?
Everything I can think of is right but there must be some other reason why there is no noise when I receive a text.
Any ideas please?! Thanks
try settings / sounds and notifications / enable sounds .... check if the box for events is ticked and the notifications too...
hope this helps
Notifications was switched on as that's what controls the sound settings for texts/MMS/email etc, but Events shouldn't need to be on and I don't normally have it enabled.
Cheers for the suggestion and I've turned it on anyway just in case but I don't think it's that.
Disable the New SMS notification option on "Sounds and notifications", then reset your device, after you reset try to go and enable the new sms notification again ! then try and see if iti works !
i had the same problem with my HD 1.14 with arabic poackage rom, I flash it with 1.19 and the problem didnt go till I made the disable-reset-enable !

For some reason, I did another reset and it seems to have cured it. Weird!!
Thanks very much for the help guys.
Hey guys! Im in desperate need of help. When im in the message settings changing the ringtone it only lets me choose between the 10 ringtones it came with. How can I add the ringtones I have saved onto my phone into the sounds and notifications folder or settings so that I can use that as a text message ringtone. I can't figure this out!
Unfortunately you can't. You can only use custom ringtones as ring tones and alarms
