Could not find a thread about this.
I'm looking for an App, a setting, or to know if it's even possible to have a different ringer that is email sender specific AND that will increase the notification volume to max.
Reason: Our systems at work will send out emails if they begin to run into trouble (overheating, HDD failure, Crashes, etc) but it's not of much use if you can't hear it when it comes in when you're asleep at 3AM (and it's too much of an inconvenience to leave the notification at max 24/7 for that off chance that something may happen at some point in time).
So is this possible? If so is there already a built in setting or app we can use?
Your help is very appreciated

Hi guys...
I am curious if any of you have found the same BUG in this software that I have, or if maybe I have some kind of conflict issue?
It seems that PCP has a bug in the profiles, in that the SMS settings don't function properly. You *should* be able to set the volume of the SMS independently of the system volume, but I am finding this is not the case. The SMS volume *always* follows the system volume settings.
Say, for example, you have a profile whereby you want to set the phone for the evening. So you turn the SMS volume OFF, and you leave the system volume ON so as to wake you with the alarm at the specified time. You will still hear the SMS sounds when a text comes in.
If you turn the system volume down, however, while leaving the SMS volume up, then you won't hear it at all.
This is further complicated by the fact that the SMS over ride tones in the individual profiles are completely ignored by the program.
It seems to me, being as they are on version five something, this fundamental bug should have been fixed by now. So I am wondering if maybe it is something that *I* am doing, or is it just some shoddy programming?
What I am asking, I guess, is if you guys are able to set the SMS appropriately per profile, or am I maybe doing something wrong? Does this function work, or does it not?
Enquiring minds want to know.

Hi,
is there any app available that alows me to schedule a number of operations on my phone?
for example, I can set peak hours for push email on my phone, however this only allows for a single period. When I'm at work, I have my phone on silent as the constant beeping as emails are recieved would be annoying, but then this does mean that I might miss phone calls as I'm not always looking at my phone and don't see it light up. So having two periods of "push" activity would be useful.
Or, how about switching Push off if my phone is on silent. That way when I'm at work and am receiving emails on my PC, the TP isn't using the battery by also receiving emails?
anything like that out there that would let me set almost limitless options? switching other things on/off when the phone profile changes? or scheduling things to happen at more then 1 point in the day?
thanks
have a look at phone alarm (www.pocketmax.net). Allows you to schedule profile changes depending on time, location etc. Can also enable/disable push mail settings, wifi, bluetooth, sound volumes, ring tones, notifications etc for each profile.
You could have it setup so that whilst you are at work, push mail is deactivated, ringtones etc set to a mid level and a standard ring. When leaving work, push mail is enabled together with a change in the ring tone and volumes.
I think it allows you to set up 10 different profiles which can be switched manually, time based, or using location data (cell data or gps). It has a 15 day trial, so have a play andsee if it does what you want.
^^ looks similar to CommMgrPro but I don't think either will work if you're not on a GSM network. Any location based profile changer for CDMA phones? I guess I should really make a seperate thread for this.
Should work fine on non-gsm. If you can't schedule by cell tower id, here are your options:
1. set up a "work" profile. ..choose the items you want to be notified of - or not and how you want to be notified.
2. set the automated switching...that can be done by cell tower, ID, WiFi SSID, time,day or category status. Say you want the phone to ring between noon and one only and silent the rest of the work day...you can make that happen.
Say you don't want your phone to "harvest" e-mails until 5:15 pm - but not on Saturday or Sunday - you can make that happen.
Say you want the phone's alarms and sound to be loud when you drive in the car, but with a bright backlight during daylight driving and a dim backlight during nightime driving...phoneAlarm will do it.
that you manually switch to in the office. You can mute all the calls, alarms, message notifications - or just some. Soft sounds, no sounds vibrate...
I have subscribed to a monitoring service which send me alerts via sms. I want that if I received a sms from a particular number then a different sms tone will sound or a file will execute etc so that I can differentiate that the message I received is important.
any way to accomplish it?
I have the same situation and would also be interested in a solution for this.
Is there somewhere we can submit suggestions to MS for inclusion of this in a future 6.5.1 revision? It would be easy to add surely and another nice feature that iphone, android etc. don't have.
Not tried it yet, but looks like this might do it: http://qorefunctions.com/
OK tried that and don't like it. It's not seeming to show all my contacts and the limit on the sound is 15 seconds, whereas I want an mp3 of a few minutes to play.
So back to the drawing board.
Done more research and trialling this: http://ringomo.com/windows.php
Seems to work well so far and cheaper than the other one too.

I tried it on my Samsung Jack i637 stock rom and in less than 10 minutes I uninstalled that ringo crap. It messed my profile up. Wish there was something light weight that doesn't screw with the contacts and profiles so much.
How did it mess your profile up? Not had any problems yet, although I am getting a funny 'ding' sound play when my phone wakes up before the proper text alert sound plays.
SMS!Alert
Hi,
SMS!Alert work perfect for it.
SMS!Alert allow you to create custom alerts based on SMS messages, enter a incoming phone number and/or keyword filter, when someone sends a SMS with the keyword filter text or if incoming phone number matches, phone will display sound alert.

Hi all,
I've tried searching the site as well as Google, but unfortunately all the keywords I come up with are so common I couldn't find what I was looking for.
I'm looking for a way to make the ringer settings for my phone a function of the time of day.
For example, I generally keep the ringer on my phone set to ring once at the lowest volume setting to avoid being rude either in public or while at work (cubicle environment). However, since I don't have a landline at home, I would like to have the ringer automatically change to ring multiple times at high volume to increase the chances of me hearing it / waking me up at night, then revert back in the morning.
At minimum, I want to be able to schedule volume and number of rings. Being able to change the actual ringtone would be a nice bonus. I'm not concerned about more fancy things like different tones for different people or things like that. A solution using a few registry hacks would be fine, a simple little program would of course be better.
Thanks in advance.
I'm looking for an alternative for "RingerX VIP" for iPhone to use with my Android device.
On google play I found a lot of programs, but they are limited for phone calls and messages.
I need to customise the ringtone for one specific mail contact.
At home I have some MyFOx home automation system including smoke - and intrusion detection. When the system detects something an alarm goes off and an email is send to my three e-mail accounts.
But when I'm sleeping or in a meeting the phone is muted, so I will not hear that I receive an alerting email from my MyFOx home automation system.
So I want to customise a ringtone (eventually the vibration also) of an email contact so I can give it a specific ringtone, and that i can configure to also ring when the phone is muted.
So if some one knows a program that can do that, or is able to make one, I would appreciate it :good:
nobody ?
Finally found an application which responds on my demands :good:
