Is it possible to change the Ringer tone for the Sms Messages?
Thanks!
Yeah, get any .wav file you want and chuck in in your Windows directory. Now go to Start, Settings, Sounds and Notifications, Notifications (tab) and select "Messaging: New Text Message" in the top drop-down box. Make sure "Play Sound" is ticked and then select the sound in the drop-down box. Your .wav file should be there.
Thanks !!!
I tried this but it doesn't work
Hi there,
I do not get SMS sound notifications even though I have set the notification as mentioned in the o2 instructions manual. A soft and hard reset do not resolve the issue.
Any thoughts on this? Is there a windows registry hack that I can carry out in order to resolve this?
Cheers!
Henry.

i go into settings->system and click [add ring tone]
i switch the one i want and press ok
then i go into settings->personal and click [Phone]
and find the file under the Ring tone: dropdown box
you dont go into sounds and notifications to change ring tone
If the ringtone is a .mid file, or possibly even a .wav (others will confirm?), then you first need to choose the option to 'create ringtone' on the phone before it will appear in the Notifications listbox.
On the other hand, where some users get confused, is when they cannot find a .wma file, when going into the "create ringtone" option, for the simple reason that .wma ringtones don't NEED converting, and are already in the notifications list box, if you saved them in the right place.
So for .wavs, midis, and similar, you need to first choose the option on the phone to Create a ringtone.
But for .wma files, if you save in the right place, these will NOT be available in the covert list, and instead ALREADY in the sounds and notifications drop down list.
All I had to do was to copy them into the Windows/Rings folder. And they were listed along with the original ringtones.
Is there an option i can set so that when im using windows live messenger and someone messages me my phone would vibrate of make a sound. It does sound and vibrate on the first message but after that I have to keep looking at my phone to see if the person im chatting with has message me. Because once the conversaion box is open all it does is blink, not make any sound This is very annoying. So if anyone knows a tweak or an option i have not come across to fix this problem i would greatly appreciate your help.
Have you tried to set the notification in Start > Settings > Personal > Sounds and Notifications?? Tap the Notifications tab and set the sound file you want for "IM: New instant message". Be sure to also check the box "Play Sound" to enable the notification sound to play.
Does anyone know a registry entry to enable alerts for incoming text messages?
Thanks
Have you tried the settings?
This is changed in settings, sounds & notifications, notifications tab, In the "Event" pull down select "Messaging: New text message" then check the box for "play sound" and change the sound. This setting is muted if the ringer / sound is muted however.
In the normal HTC Touch Pro settings, its impossible to change the incoming SMS tune (as far as I know), and i couldnt find any good software to change it.
After some poking around with the registry editor I found a solution.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65B-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}
Now you're supposed to see the options for Messaging: New text message
down the list you'll see 'wave', by editing the value of Wave you can set the file you want to use as your incoming SMS tune.
Hope it works for you, and PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE dont do anything if it says something else than Messaging: New text message.
setting/ sounds and notifications, select incomming new text, choose sound from drop list. tunes are plced in windows root for sms

convert your sound to a *.wma or *.wav file, then copy to windows directory.
then follow the steps from our friend, bod001.
