Email, vs text, vs picture message??
Also - when I get a facebook notification.......why doesn't my phone tell me about it like all my friend blackberries and iphones do?
Sigh.
you have to go into each individual program, hit the menu touch capacative button, hit settings, and then check the notification option and choose the ringtone. as for the facebook issue, eveyone has it. I receive notifications ver sporadically and few and far between. Its just something wrong with the facebook ap.
Edit: as for mms notifications, I'm pretty sure that its the same as the sms notification. Just go to settings, sound nd display, and choose the ringtone.

Hi
I've gout my Touch HD syncing with Exchange Server, and so constantly get a 'Notification' on the screen that requires dismissing, as new e-mails arrive.
(I thought I would be able to go to Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications, then find the Messaging: New e-mail message and uncheck the 'display message on screen' but this isn't checked)
Are you only able to switch notifications on or off globally? I guess you still get an icon to indicate a missed call or sms.... what do other people do?
Thanks for any advice / comments
Try one of the Tweak software packages out there, I am sure there is something in there for notifications.
Regards
Tweak HD lets you switch SMS sent notifications on/off, but that's all.....
Sorry if this seems like a couple of daft questions but I can't seem to find them out myself.
1) Is there a way to make the notification sound different for a text and an email. Right now if I receive either I hear the same sound, with the number of emails I get a day I tend to ignore it which now results in my not seeing I have a text till a couple hours later.
2) Is there some way to see how many texts and calls I've made over a set period of time? All the phones I've had before would give totals for me which I could then reset but I can't find that in this phone. I've downloaded an app called Phonalyzr but it doesn't do what I'm really after.
on the first point, go to Messages, press Menu --> Settings --> Select ringtone
same for email
hmm i dont seem to be able to do that. When I change the notification sound in either the messaging app or the default phone settings it changes in both. I dont have the option to change it in mail (I use activesync btw).
Its very annoying to have the same sound for both.
The notification sound set in the main phone settings will be for anything on the phone that you haven't set a different one for.
If you then go to messages and in the first messages window with "compose message" at the top, press menu / settings /scroll down to notication setting and choose select sound - you can then choose a different sound for messages.
There's currently no option to choose a different sound for gmail or mail as far as I know.

but when i open my Gmail, Menu, Settings, i get the Choose Ringtone option....first is Default Ringtone, then others :/
You are right Suisen - Thanks - Meant the HTC Mail one, but of course you can change the gmail notify to a seperate one. I just not done it on my Hero.
With most progs, if the app itself allows you to select a sound it'll have its own, but if not, it plays the one you choose in main Phone settings.

Cheers for that, now I know when to actually look at my phone when it makes a sounds
Hey guys, i don't like have one notification noise for ALL my notifications. now i can't tell the difference between emails, sms etc. i looked under settings but it only allows you to set one sound over all. is there any way to get individual sounds for individual events?
Each one of those have a settings tab. You can change them idependently. IE: Open Messages and go to settings, Notifications and change it. Same with gmail and exchange.
I am running the Dell stock 1.6 software.
1.Is there a way to set different sound options for different notifications. Example, I would prefer to only get an audible notification for SMS messages but none for emails. I don't see that option. If there is not, is there a program that will do this?
2. As part of this issue, I now get little beeps or bells going off and by looking at the notifications can not determine what caused the sound. I don't even see any changes in emails or my Facebook widget. Maybe tweets?
3. My notifications are suddenly screwed up. It keeps telling me I have x number of emails to read. I click on it, read them or even "mark folder as read" and then it still tells me I have the same number of emails to read. this didn't used to happen. It started recently.
Thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. You can configure the notification in each app. Start gmail and go to settings etc....
2. It may be sd card notifications which you can turn off in the main settings app.
3 try forcing a sync.
4. Upgrade to 2.1 or froyo. ;-)

I hate the water droplet sound that the email has, I changed the sound in the sound settings but apprently it's seperate check all over in the app and I have no idea how to change it....
2. I want to be able to remove the WIFI in the notification shade, I don't mind the popup too much but I'd like to remove that also. I'm connected to wifi 80% of the time and that just takes screen real estate and clutters my screen.
Email sounds are changed in the settings menu of ths mail apps themselves. For example, if you're using Exchange, hit the menu button and select settings then select your email account listed and change the sound there. Gmail is the same way. Go to settings, then your email account then Select inbox spund and vibrate.
