Anyone having this issue? I can put them on the SD card or internal storage in /Notifications/ respectively, and I can select them in the sound settings, but it still plays the default notification sound when I get a message.
I originally put a custom notification sound in the "Notifications"folder as well. It didn't even pop up in the notification sound selection menu for me. I had to place the sound in /media/audio/notifications/ and then it showed up in the menu for me and it worked fine. Try giving that a shot!
Tried that, still default notification. Thanks though.
Ok, so I was in Target (which has horrible reception) and switched to roaming (has happened in this Target with every VZW phone I've ever had), and that played by custom nofication, but any SMS, MMS, etc plays the default notification sound still...
so does that mean you can't put ringtone/notifications on an SD card ?
anyone know if this phone does custom notification lights ?

I AM CURRENTLY USING T-MOBILE'S T-WING AND AM VERY SATISFIED/THANKFUL WITH ALL THE UPDATES THIS SITE HAS PROVIDED, (OVER CLOCKING, PAGE POOL SIZE, HTC HOME PAGE, vTAP VIDEOS, TCPMP etc..) HOWEVER I HAVE NOTICED THAT THERE WAS/IS A SMALL 'GLITCH' IN MY DEVICE EVEN BEFORE I HAD INSTALLED ANY OF THESE PROGRAMS.
-WHEN THE PHONES VOLUME SETTING IS ON 'LOUD' (VOLUME UP) I RECEIVE CALLS AND TEXT FINE BUT AFTER A WHILE THE VOLUME/SOUND GOES DEAD, THE CALLS/TEXT STILL COME IN BUT THERE IS NO SOUND, I HAVE TO GO BACK TO THE PHONE SETTINGS (SETTINGS/PHONE) RESET THE RINGTONE AND HIT THE 'PLAY' BUTTON AGAIN SO THAT IT ACTUALLY PLAYS SOUND...ANY IDEAS OR HELP ON HOW I CAN FIX THIS, ITS REALLY ANNOYING TO SEE ALL THE MISSED CALLS AND TEXT THAT I NEVER HEAR BECAUSE OF THIS...
umm first off try typing w/o the caps
and the only thing i can think of is, if you're using custom ring tones from your memory card, and you receive a call or sms when the card is out, it jacks everything up.
so if you've ever found that your memory card suddenly doesn't read or something that maybe the culprit, i've found that when the physical memory on the phone >1mb there are problems reading the storage card
The subject basically says it. I can't find a tutorial for my specific phone the Sprint Samsung Transform. I have downloaded my songs, trimmed them down, created the ringtones folder on the root of my sd card, and dropped the mp3s in there. went back to phone settings sounds and notifications. changed my phones ringtone, that worked. now i want to change the sound the plays when i receive a new text, but i cannot find the option to do that on the phone. am i missing something or is there a hack or anything that will enable this?
i found a sort of fix for this. change your notification ringtone to whatever you want your text message ringtone to be. the only problem is it makes that same sound for every notification. most noticeably when you plug your phone ino the charger. thats the best ive figured out tho.
Everything was fine until I realized I cant change my custom ringtone anymore. Whatever ringtone I set the custom one would ring even though it showed the other one is selected. So I deleted the ringtone and then was able to change it.
However only after a little while the phone just stopped ringing, the default tone seems to be silent and whatever I put it wont change. I put back my custom ringtone, rebooted, then deleted all the custom ringtones again and yet I am unable to get my phone to ring.
I have tried setting a ringtone through playerpro music player as well but to no avail.
The notification sound comes as normal. I am running stock unrooted 4.0.4. What should I do?
Figured out the problem. There were some specific contacts that did not have a ringtone assigned to them and my own second phone was one of them from which I was doing the testing. I was using a profile scheduler app previously and in that I had put some of the contacts on the whitelist to allow them to call me even on silent mode. So it was the app which was controlling those contacts and even after uninstalling it the settings hadnt defaulted.
Hello. Today my notification sound stopped working. My ringtone plays fine, but when I receive a message for example, there's no "Ting", the phone just vibrates. I'm using Cataclysm rom and franco's r13 kernel, and I've also flashed Drummerjed's volume mod. I don't know exactly when I lost notification sound since my phone stays on Silent/Vibrate for the major part of the day...
When I go into Settings > Sound > Default notification sound and select a tone, it doesn't play (if I go into Phone ringtone everything plays fine)
Anybody got any ideas? Thanks!
got the exact same probably going on.
Ok, I need a little help, as this problem has me stumped.
I wanted to set a custom notification sound, so I copied 2 new mp3 files to /sdcard/media/audio/notifications. Normally this should allow me to select those sounds as notification sounds from the sound settings, but this time it didn't work (I have done it successfully before). I then proceeded to open the files in ES File Explorer, selected Play and Set as Ringtone, Notification Tone. That worked and the sound was set as the default notification tone. BUT, here's the kicker, when I now go to settings - Sound - Notification Sound, on the screen where you can set the Default notification, Messages, Calendar, Mail and Notice, I am no longer able to select any tones for each of these categories. When I go into Default notification, where I used to get a list of notification sounds, there is no list anymore, and the Apply button is greyed out. Same with the other notification categories.
I've tried selecting a different notification sound through ES File Explorer, and that changed the Default again, but I still can't get a list to load in the settings screen. I've already tried clearing data and defaults for the ES File Explorer, Music and Android System under Apps in settings, but that didn't fix it either. I've rebooted just to make sure it wouldn't correct itself, no luck. I'm stuck. I would like to have the ability again to set these different categories of notification sounds. Can anyone help?
I ended up restoring a backup to fix this issue. Problem solved.
