Do you mean email app or gmail? I know where the setting is in gmail, haven't looked for it in mail.

I just changed the notification sound in Settings and it used that one when I got email. I don't see any other way to change it using the default app.

It's the one for Mail not GMail. I've changed the default but it still plays Alpha. The tone has changed though because other apps using Default are using the new Tone, it's just Mail that isn't.

I had the same issue except for my sms tone. I changed it to a custom one from a sms app and it still doesnt use it.
I couldnt work it out. As far as I can tell you can't change the email notification sounds in the HTC mail app.

Unfortunately I've just had to accept this is HTCs approach to their phones. Android still appears to be an immature OS and HTC is too eager to release a product before its ready and not too eager to fix niggles after release.
All in all the HTC Desire HD feels like a phone with enormous potential but just has too many minor flaws to allow you to love it.
Zedge use to work on desire could set sms and email but it doesn't work on dhd

you need a foldr on the root of your mem card called 'Media'
inside it mae another one called 'notifications'
put your sounds in there and hey presto.....it works for me
I've done that, still doesn't work.
It's ok on Gmail, just doesn't work for the HTC client.

Depends on the mail app being used? You can do it in your settings if your using defult app.

Just wanted to know how to turn off the stock SMS feature so I can use the one I downloaded. I have handcent and like it alot better. Usually when I get my first SMS it asks which one I would like to use as default, but it never did. I am getting two notifications and two pop ups at the moment Thanks!
Open the stock app then menu>settings>received notification (uncheck)

Is there a simple way to replace the stock Mms.APK with AOSP Mms.APK... Thanks in advance.
You try installing the apk?

I would install handcent which you can make to look like the stock messaging app with the dark theme plus you gain additional alert settings and vcard functionality not available in stock.

Only downside is it doesn't havE full mms support, almost tho. Shortly after it does buh-bye mms apk
Why.....?
Because..... Kaos is better than sense. duh!!!
as an fyi from personal experience, even when you use a different mms app, don't delete the original mms.apk or messaging.apk from your phone, because it won't be able to receive messages anymore. i know cause i tried it!

Not true. I have deleted the stock mms from fr008 and handcent works just fine with the usual bug that it ignores system settings for vibrate on notify.
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
when i try and adb push Mms.apk it tells me the system memory is full... any solution?

Are you booted into clockwork recovery? And if so make sure you have /system mounted.

If you delete the stock mms app then you will not be able to send/receive mms with handcent. It doesn't have that capability, it only handles sms on its own at this time. But if you don't user mms then that's no problem.

yeah i did system mount and it said memory full, i then unmounted and adb push worked but didnt show up on the phone.... i did how ever have to pull the battery out to get it to reboot.
So this is my problem.. Im using Typhoon CM7 rom, and ive got following problem:
My phone is not vibrating when i recieve sms. In settings i put vibrate on "always" and my phone is not vibrating when i recieve sms. Not even in normal profile mod (not silent). It vibrates for incoming calls in every profile,haptic feedback works fine.. But when i recieve sms,no vobration at all..
Any one got solution for my problem ?
Thanks in advance

maybe you have logined on several client, the hangouts will notify only one time!
I have the same issue across multiple accounts and devices. all unique accounts. all on latest stable software
Galaxy Nexus
Nexus 4
Nexus 10
Same here beyond annoying.
Notification Issues
I noticed that my lack of notifications was only happening with one contact. Everyone else who messaged me would come through just fine, but my wife's messages would come through without a peep. I finally did figure out what was wrong and wanted to share that here in case it helps any of you.
Specifically, although we'd installed and used Hangouts on her Nexus, in the Gmail desktop site, she hadn't click the "Try Hangouts Now" button (left click on your account's picture in the Gmail buddy list). Once I clicked that, all of her messages now resulted in notifications on my devices. Long story short, if you're having issues with notifications, see if the person messaging you is still using "Talk". A bit silly that Google didnt move her account over to Hangouts once she installed the mobile app, but oh well.
Hope this helps.
can I ask a stupid question - is hangouts allowing for text messaging now?

Its supposed to pop up on all of your devices and when you open it on another device it is supposed to clear them in the other devices

I just confirmed that "Hangouts" does allow instant messaging - it does not hit your text messages (but it does hit your data). the other person must also have "hangouts" installed too in order for you to communicate with them via this app

thanks for clearing some things up for certain users! but is anyone else experiencing this problem besides us.
I am experiencing this too, but seem to have noticed a trend. I do get notifications but only on the device that I most recently used to send the message (not both devices like it should). For example at 1 PM, I send a hangout message to another person from my Galaxy S3, they respond at 1:30 PM and it notifies my GS3 but not my Nexus 7. At 1:45 PM I then respond to their previous message from my Nexus 7, and they respond at 2 PM with only my Nexus 7 receiving the notification. Not sure if this is just coincidence but that's what I've noticed so far.
I'm on a Nexus 4 CM 10.1 (initially RC2, now most recent nightly) w/ Nova Launcher running and get no notifications that I've been messaged. In fact, if I chat with someone via Gmail and then check in the hangouts phone app, it will typically not include the chat that was done on my desktop. This is really irritating. Uninstalled updates back to talk for now.

I had same problem with Hangouts, it coming after upgrading to 4.4.4
What I've found on some forums and working for me:
1. Move all hangouts ogg giles from sdcard(emulated)/ ringtones to system/media/audio/ringtones
to do this you have to go to twrp , mount system and use file manager inside twrp
2. Got it working with :
Settings --> Sounds --> Volume --> Volumes --> Uncheck "Link ringtone and notification volumes".
Then an additional choice appears for the Notifications.
After that I started to get the sounds when notifications arrived. I rechecked the "Link ringtone and notifications" and the volume still worked.
Seems like something that needed to be initialized once.
I was wondering if there was a way to just disable notifications. I guess the notifications are tied in with the sound and I like to use ChompSMS but I don't get any sound when I get a text and I realized it's because when you turn notification off in the native messenger, it also turns off the sound. Is there a way around this? I also thought about freezing the messenger app but not sure if that would prevent me from receiving texts all together.
EDIT: I froze the native messenger app but couldn't get texts after that.
EDIT: Apparently it was the ROM I was on. My friend was able to disable it and still get sound to work when he got a notification in Chomp. I changed ROMs and it's working now.
