Distinctive SMS tones

Hello,
I am using the Treo750 with MW6.
I am trying to locate some software that will allow me to set up distinctive ring tones for SMS messages. It would be even better if the program let me organize my text messages - like to sort them into baskets, etc. depending from where they come? But the distinctive ring tones is a must.
I tried Pro contacts but so far have not got it to work for me.
Any help appreciated.

[Q] Noob Coming over from Blackbery needs Help

Hello:
On my old Blackberry 9700 each contact has a separate ringtone for the phone number and their email address.
Is it possible to have separate ringtones for someone's phone an email address on the Skyrocket without putting a separate entry in the contact for each one?
If there is a way can someone enlighten this noob?
Thanks.

Download the app on the market called ringdroid its free. It will also allow u to use any music you have downloaded as a ringtone. And lets u choose how long the ringtone is, and what parts of songs u want to use
Thanks silver03wrx.
Ringdroid sounds like a ringtone making app.
I have the ringtones on the sd card. I just don't see a way to use separate tones for a single contacts phone number and a different tone for their email address without entering a separate contact for the phone number and another for the email address in my contacts. A lost of extra work.
I like to know when someone is calling me or emailing me. I can then choose to answer right away or not.

Ringdroid does allow you to assign a ringtone to a specific contact look at the attached picture
Yeah i dont think that allows you to seperate the email sound for the same contact though
Hi Silver:
I don't think it does either because I have CNN updates in the contacts with an email address along with a certain ringtone assigned to it & every time an update comes over it plays the default email tone.
This is a bummer because I like to know when family emails me since we're so far apart. Had each one of the siblings on a different tone so I knew right away who it was.
I guess blackberry will always have everyone beat when it comes to handling emails with ringtones.
Thanks for trying Silver.

Try WhoIsIt in the market place. I think it might do what you want.
Hello:
Whoisit didn't get very good reviews.
I also found Enhanced SMS & Caller ID, and Ringo Pro out there that might bridge the gap. Gonna do more research tomorrow morning.
Thanks all.

I understand your frustration, I am also a former 9700 user. The thing I miss most is the centralized Sound Profiles, it's hard / impossible afaik to have profiles setup which will in turn change the alerts and notifications for all installed apps collectively.
Hi Promise:
I'm using Ringo Pro right now. It will ring a tone for phone calls & msgs.
Haven't found anything safe that will do different tones per contact for all three yet.
Will keep looking.

[Q] Custom Ringtones

I am looking for a solution that can help me in setting a custom ring tone for a series of phone numbers. These phone numbers cannot be defined in the phonebook because these are quite large numbers. For example there are 2000 phone numbers within my organization that starts with 4560001 - 4562000. I cannot defin all of these in my phone book, but if someone is calling from any of these numbers I want a custom ringtone to be linked to this.
Can anyone help on this
thanks

Do you already have the ringtones you are wnating to use if not go to the market and lookup "myxer" it allowes you to make custome ringtones download them and set them as defualt or specific to a contact
I don't think what you want to do is possible.
Sent from my JellyBeaned Infuse, unofficial cm10
i don't think this is possible too... unless you really group your contacts by number maybe?

I agree you would have to group the contacts to make a specific ringtone for a number of contacts and then group others with another ringtone etc untill it is the way you wanted Myxer will still set the ringtones though and its free

[Completed] Custom Notifications for Outlook Email App

I recently decided to install an email app (Outlook) to my phone versus just using the standard built in client. Galaxy s5 rooted(TWRP/Xposed/MM). I made some custom notifications and ringtones and placed them into the notifications folder and ringtones folders on the phone. I had no problems setting the tones for my email when i just used the built in phone email client but now that I have the app installed when I try and set a notification tone it only shows up the basic notification tones that are pre-installed into the phone. Is there a way to get it to find the custom tones I added or is this not possible b/c it is an email app? Any help appreciated
