[Q] Notificaton Ringtone

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

to change the ringtone for sms click the messaging icon>menu>settings. scroll down until you see notifications settings and then select ringtone. hope this helps!

@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

Email Custom Tone?

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.

Go to your
"control panel" under your nickname in top bar
"edit options " on the left bar
and check : "Save a copy of sent messages in my Sent Items folder by default"
and click "save changes" at bottom

[Q] Choose phonebook source?

Hi all. I can't seem to find where to set the default address book to pull up when using the phone app. All I see is all contacts at the top which is definitely not what I want. Thanks!

Go to the people app, on the bottom right tap on the 3 dots and you will see an option to choose which contacts are displayed.
Hope this helps.

Schedule Text Messages

How do you schedule text messages using the stock messaging app. I want to use the stock app so it will work with Bixby.
Thanks in advance

Press the small 4 box icon beside were you type your text messages and then you should be able to select schedule messages.
Tried to upload pictures but had network issues.
Edit seems was able to see below

Here is a picture of the icon you should see.

Once selected this would appear.

Thanks! That worked perfect.

Here my question, I have a scheduled text going out at a later time to several contacts. However, I want to edit it but cannot find it. How do you view a scheduled text going out to multiple people?

Search for text using magnifying glass search button. Didn't figure out how to re-edit it once scheduled though. Editing worked fine under Pie

I figured it out. After trying to do a search to no avail. I just happened to be scrolling through my conversation list and when I got to the bottom I saw the scheduled text to my group of people that I wanted to change so I just had to scroll to the very bottom of my conversation list to find that scheduled group text.
To edit your schedules text, just click on the" [emoji790]" clock next to the text. Then you'll see options, one of which is to EDIT.
