Is there a way too have custom notification sounds? It seems too basic a function not to have on such an advanced phone
Edit: Nvm... figured it out. Kinda dumb how they did it but oh well
yes you can
Edit the contact, and add checkmark for custom notification. It will then appear under ringtone setting. It took awhile for me to figure out as well.
Down load a ring tone app and select sounds as notification.

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?
Regards

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.
it was reallyannoying, having the notification pop up on screen ater a text message was sent, and i had to "dismiss" it.
now its allllll gone!!!
lol
Does the x1 have a way to customize the sms(email,mms) notification sounds because in Sounds&Alerts there's one option: to change the ringing melody only.
when i got into settings sounds & notifications notifications
i in the event dropdown have tons of both mms and sms sound and notification
options like what sound to play and if it also vibrate
both sendt sms and recieved sms and ... also for mms

Really? I have the stock ROM and it allows both alarms + ringtones + mp3s etc.
Which ROM do you have?
i'm not sure...how can i see what rom i have?
...and one more thing-there's a logo VODAFONE at the back of the phone?Does this mean that they've messed up the menus?
i found it ...but i stll don't know how to check the rom...
THis is a basic part of Windows Mobile, I can't see Vodafone messing with it. You are going into "Settings" then "Sounds & Notifications" correct? Or I suspect you haven't chosen the correct event in the drop down box, as for Messaging:New Text Message you don't get a Ring to change, it asks you which sound to play...
A few months ago I moved from Windows Mobile 6.5 to Android. A feature I miss a bunch is the ability to have my scheduled tasks alert me. Using Android the task alert is the text message alert. I have been unable to find a way to make my tasks have a separate alert. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Thanks!
Are you referring to the notification ringtones? because you can change that through the settings in the calander app to make it something different than the default.

yes that is what I am referring to... however if I change the notification ring tone it changes the text message ring tone.
Tasks
I have all my schedules for work in my phone set up in my calander, since i also came from a Windows phone (Q9C) i was using outlook for all my apts. THere is a exchange program u can use thru google that will link the 2 and bring all your tasks into your new calander on your phone. U can then set each event to alert u a set time before, just like in WINM0b. I set mine up to alert me 1 hour before i work and if the phone is on silent, theres a icon on top left screen telling me theres a event. u can also set up sounds. I hope this helps, and hope the info helps u. I am running Dk28 Froyo and there are some differences, so if some of this makes no sense, thats prob the reason. the program thru google is google calander. seach for it, it works

When you change it through the calendar app, it only effects notifications from that app, the default notification ringtone will remain the same. Also, you can specify a specific notification ringtone through the messaging app, and gmail as well, and have them all be something different than the default notification ringtone that is set through the main settings->sound menu.
Open up the calendar app, hit the menu button, select settings, then change the ringtone for that app.
All my appointments are through google calender. I am running Froyo (Bonsai MOD). The one hour thing is what I have as well... the issue I am having is my text msg alert seems like it has to be the same as the task alert. I liked having my task alert long(like a ring tone) and I like having a short text msg alert.

wow... just wow. I really feel like a noob. It was so simple. Thanks!
You can also DL tone picker from the market. It will give you a few more selections when trying to change notification tones, including the use of music found on your SD card. Just a lil FYI if you're not too big on system tones only.

Thanks for the heads up however "Select music" is installed by default and will let you do the music from your SD card thing(all my ring tones are there)
You can also just create a directory on your sd card and place your audio files there. On your sd card, create a directory with folders as such
sdcard
|-media
--|-audio
----|-alarms
------|-random.mp3
------|-random.ogg
----|-notifications
------|-another.mp3
------|-another.aac
----|-ringtones
------|-you_get_the_picture.mp3
------|-insert_audio_file_here.wav
So after the latest update I now get audible notifications for everything... emails, text messages, facebook updates, you name it. Driving me mad! I just want text messages to have an audible alert. I looked under the settings for each account and under the audio piece and I can't figure how to change it. Someone please point me in the right direction
Go into the each of the apps that have notifications and change the ringtone for it to silent. Such as gmail or email or whatever Silent should be the second ringtone in the list after Default Ringtone.
What about the Low Battery warning ? How do I turn that off ?
I get my phone ringtone and it is a pain in the a*se. I was even on a call and all of a sudden I am listening to my phone ringtone going off at the same time.
It seems that this phone or motoblow is missing the defaut notification of "silent" anyone know how to enable this? It is a pia going into every app, to set it to silent. Thanks -Mike

You can dump mp3s to sdcard/notification folder, then change notification sound as usual.
My text app has a way to use a separate alert tone, other than what the system has set. Some apps allow a different tone for different contacts, but I don't go that far. If you don't have any you like, any MP3 will work or you can use Zedge from the playstore and search for text tones or SMS tones.
I installed this app which allows you to set custom wav/mp3 as notifications and ringtones. Really simplifies the process (has worked on S4/HTC M9 and now 6P.

How do you find the file folders to move it add the files? I'm kind of a tech dummy... Do I need to download a file manager app, or am II just to dumb to find one already on the phone? Lol!
