Hi,
Is it possible to have a custom tone for mail? I have got a tone working for texts but cannot figure any way to get custom message for emails........
Yes. Get the app called Zedge in the market. You can assign email, notification, ringtones...ect. They have alot of tones to download also.

With Zedge you can only assign as a notification sound, not just for mail. it plays for all things like low battery etc as well
Open the app in question and go into its settings, should be there

If you open Mail and go to settings/notification settings it only lets you turn notification on or off not asign a tone. I want something like "you have mail"
I have some on the phone but cannot find a way to asign it just for mail...
This is the stock mail app?

Yes.
New to Android, just changed from Windows........
Just set up the app and you're right - I assume it uses the stock notification sound as set in the sound settings. Bit of an oversight from HTC, there

Yes that is the only one I can get to work. If I set "you have mail" as the
stock tone it plays the same for ll notifications. I have set one OK for Texts..
I just use Gmail and you can set it for that so assumed it'd be the same for the other apps
When on your homescreen, press the personalize button. Scroll down, press 'notification sound' and choose email.

Hello everyone! First I want to thank everyone for their hard work! I wish I could contribute more.
I would like to know if there is ANY WAY possible to have Different ringtone per notification.
Example - one sound for email and another sound for SMS, etc...
When going into Settings it doesn't seem to have this feature.
I was wondering if anyone out there knows of a way to do this.
Thanks,
quad

@babi_gurlx Thanks, been trying to figure out how to choose the ringtone for SMS.
If you want a profile app that will control the volume for separate notification and SMS, I've been using Profile
That's the ringtone for notifications, meaning any notification (SMS, email, etc)
Unless I'm missing something.
I want a different ringtone for SMS than email.
Thanks

Is there any dialer app which resembles the SE 2.1 dialer app (with dialer, call log, contacts and favourites, and allows to add new contacts directly, etc)?
I have just found Youlu. Looks nice. Any other ideas?
I am using "Dialer One" and it is good.
youlu address book......it's the besttttttttttttt
I installed youlu yesterday and today have deleted all other phonebook/dialer/calllog applications. Youlu no doubt is excellent and has a cool widget too.
I also like the youlu dialer, but there is one problem.
Because I wanted to fix my lowres contact pictures, I have linked all pictures to my facebook account and until now I have not found any app that can show these pics.
I don't want to change the pictures for +200 contacts again to use this app.
Is there anyone who has found a different dialer app that can show the facebook pictures ?

I'm enjoying Youlu too. However, I have a problem. When I dial a number ou select a contact in it, it opens SE blue background dialer. Should it be like that?

You can set the facebook pictures directly to your contacts with syncmypix. Then every phonebook will show them. The app also has a high res setting.

No, it shouldn't be like that.
Delete the defaults for Youlu (in Settings->Applications->Management) and repeat the action, when prompted select Youlu as default.

I tried, but didn't work. Any clue? My x10 is a 2.1 version...Keep using the low resolution picture when I dialed a number, I didn't have the same problem back in 1.6
is there a dialer which allows conference calling my old tilt2 i could have 6 callers at once.

Being old skool, i'd like a answer/ reject button not a slider like on stock 2.1. Is there a way of doing this. I currently run Dialer One and its awesome, just not the answer slide bar...

2.1 dialer is the best, I really don't understand why they abandoned it.
Messages notifications work fine.
Third party apps however fail to notify me if I have a message/update in the app.
I may just need to fix the push settings but not really sure how. I just switched from a 4s
Which app are you using? Be sure to enable notifications in the app settings and disable the default notification in the stock messaging app.

It's not just one app, any third party app, whether it be a game letting me know it's my turn, or facebook it doesn't let me know when I have notifications until I go into the app.
But thanks, I'll mess with the settings

I don't have those issues.
The Facebook think I believe is by design. I only get notified if I'm tagged in a photo or something. I don't get pop ups every time someone "likes" my status, which I think is for the better. This is the same way on my Desire as well.
I have a Verizon GS3 - I used to use GO SMS for well SMS. Now I like the stock messaging app but the only thing I am missing is the different notification sounds for different contacts. While I'm driving I tend to ignore the texts unless it's from my wife who has a specific tone I used for SMS. Is there something out there that JUST does this? MEaning I don't want to install Go SMS and I don't want SMS messages popping up
any clues?
You can use GoSMS and disable the pop ups.

I am in the same boat and would love this feature. I came over from an iPhone (Sorry Apple your too slow at rolling out a LTE device) and you could assign contacts their own SMS tones. Android needs this too. For now once they fix Light Flow I think that will be my second best option. I can at least assign a LED light color to a few things but it's not working currently on the VZ GS3 version.

I use "Ringo" from the market. Works great, and easy to use.

P.S. If you use this app, don't forget to set the default notification sound in the SMS app to "silent". Ringo will do the rest.

Is there a good stable rom that matches orthus in stability that will allow me to have custom ringtones for each contact? I've come to the understanding that it is an AOKP issue. I also tried liquid rc9 and no custom contact ringtone either. I miss this feature, mostly when the hubby and annoying aunt calls.
I have it working in CM10. Issue is that system chooser doesn't let you pick anything aisde from defined rings, if you install ES File Explorer and remove the default for "Media Storage" the next time you try to pick a custom ring it will ask you which App you would like to use and you can choose ES and pick from there.
I'm running Paranoid Android 2.99 by gs2usr and custom ring tones are working fine. I tested just how promiseofcake mentioned and also tested with Zedge. As far as the rom is concerned its 100% stable on my device.

What do you mean "remove the default for media storage"? Also could I use root explorer for this process? I bought it so that's what I use.

Hmmm weird, I tried everything (zedge, Ringo pro, other methods) when I used liquid rc9 but nothing would take.
I'm not sure if the sequence is similar on the rom you're running, but once I select a custom ringtone the screen just disappear without confirmation. Once I receive a call from that particular contact it works though. Did you have any of those contacts call you to test???

I also purchased and use Root Explorer. ES File Explorer has some built in ringtone functionality and the Android OS recognizes it as available for setting ringtones.
When I say remove the default for "Media Storage" what I mean is that if a default is not selected for your home launcher for example, it will ask you to choose a launcher each time you press the home button. The same is applicable to setting ringtones. Go to Manage Apps, All, choose "Media Storage", scroll down to the "Launch by Default" heading and click "Clear defaults" if the button is available. Then when you try to set a ringtone via the People app, it will ask you which app you would like to use to do this. The same should work for Zedge or if you have any other apps on there that have the ability to set ringtones.

Gotcha. Thanx for the explanation. I had no luck with any program to get this to work on aokp/orthus, so I am currently on slim bean. It works! Custom contact ringtones again, but I've already had 3 random reboots in just 2 hours on it. Hopefully it just needs to settle over the next few days. Thanx for all your suggestions and help.
