problem:
"Android Messages" app uses "Default notification sound" instead of "Message received" sound.
the app was configured to have all the available notification types enabled (only "Other notifications" is available in the Notifications Category).
i've also checked and made sure "Android Messages" app has enabled all the "App permissions" (Storage, SMS,etc) and also "Other permissions" (Home screen shortcuts, Show on Lock screen, etc)
the native "Messaging" app behaves like expected. it plays the adequate notification sound
reproduce with:
1) set "Android Messages" as default sms messaging app (instead of the out-of-the-box Messaging app)
2) configure 2 different sound for "Default notification sound" and "Message received" sound in "Sound & vibration" settings menu
3) arrange to receive a sms (notification)
4) assert that "Default notification sound" was played instead of the expected "Message received" sound
questions:
is this problem being experienced by anyone else?
is this a known problem?
does it happen with all third party sms messagin apps?
SW version:
ROM version - Global Stable ROM
MIUI Version - V10.0.4.0.PDGMIFH
I'm pretty sure this is just a sound that works with the default messaging app only
for the time being, it sure looks like so
thanks
Yes. It's common. Xiaomi removed our ability to set custom notification sounds. Any third party app uses the default sound. It's quite annoying actually.
yeah.
skype, slack, gmail, etc, all sharing the same notification sound, sucks big time
Using something like MacroDroid, Tasker or setting a sound with Feel The Wear (only if you have a WearOS watch) could be something to consider in the meantime, I hope Xiaomi add this feature back in though. It's very annoying.

Hello!
I was wondering if there is an app that would allow to play a notification sound until the notification is checked. I get a default, short sound for my calendar notifications which I often miss so I want something that plays a sound or repeats the notification sound until I check the event. It's for the HTC EVO 4G.
I've tried searching around and tried apps like "missed call" but I have not found a solution to works on the calendar.
The closest app I found is called "calendar snooze" but instead of playing the notification sound until I check it, it reminds me for every minute or so with maximum of 5 times (can be customized and more options are available in paid version). So wondering if there is something that just simply plays the sound until the calendar is viewed.
Thanks!
I am on infused 2.1.0 and have a question about sms notification
I cannot find anywhere an option to change the text message notifcation sound.
The one that the phone uses now is too short and very hard to hear even with the volume jacked.
I LOVE this phone and glad I got rid of my iphone but the sms notification is just so very poor in terms of sound quality compared to the iphone
thanks for the help
Messaging uses the default notification sound if I remember correctly. From your home screen tap the Menu button then tap Settings > Sound > Notification ringtone then select something that is louder. Trust me. The phone comes with plenty of ways to get your attention
thanks for the post. Notifications will allow me to change the sound for say an incoming email but there is nothing that will allow me to change the one for a text????
Not with the default Messaging app. It's coded to use the "global" notification ringtone. If you want to pick a specific notification sound for your SMS messages you'll need to use a different app for SMS messages (which will give you A LOT more features than the standard Messaging app anyway). I like Handcent SMS but other people seem to like Chomp SMS too. Give it a shot. The apps are free and easy to use.
ok are you using the infused ROM? when I go to notifications, the sound I choose is for email but the SMS is totally different !!!!!!!!
Nah, I'm using CM7 at the moment. If I'm wrong that's my bad but I coulda swore Messaging used the default notification ringtone. If Messaging actually uses its own settings for a notification ringtone it has to be somewhere in Messaging's settings menu.
Open up the stock messaging app. Press menu, settings, scroll all the way to the bottom, and the last option is select ringtone.

I am attempting to set individual notifications for specific apps (Hangouts, Gmail, etc), but for whatever reason, it appears that I am unable to do that.
In Hangouts for example, I have the notification set to "Hangouts Message" but when I view the actual sound setting, it shows, "Default ringtone (Themos)" but the actual notification sound that plays when I receive a message is Argon, which is what I have set as the system default.
This same behavior is consistent with any and all apps that allow you to customize the notification sound.
Is anyone else having this issue, and if so, have you discovered a workaround?
I'm having the same problem on my Galaxy S3 I747M.
Sometimes, during the day, I set my Phone with Android 7.1.1 to Do Not Disturb mode. However there are some notifications that I don't wanna miss, and I mean that I also want to hear the notification or alarm sound.
So I went into Settings > Applications and for my important apps (Reminder [1] and Whatsapp) I went in notification settings and I enable "override do not disturb" for both apps; furthermore I disabled these apps from battery optimization.
Well: despite the fact that I set these apps to "override do not disturb", when these apps receive/display a notification with a certain sound when DND is active, I only can see them with the LED and I can't hear any sound (but the notification is however displayed also on the lock screen).
So is a matter of no sound played. All is ok when DND is not active.
I miss something or is a know bug?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sorry for the noise: I reply to myself, since I found the solution (imho very hidden).
On the DND icon in the bar menu i double clicked and some options appeared: I choosed "Priority only", so the apps which are set to "override do not disturb" now are able to play a sound when the phone is set to DND.
I hope that this solution could be useful to someone.
This is the topic on sony forum: https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xper...pp-content-on-notifications/m-p/1282131#M9749
Can anyone else confirm that iussue? Are you able to silence the notifications...without they "come back" to be active by theirself? Is very annoying...
Even if i set on oreo app notification "low"....when a i receive a message it turn on automatically on "urgent" again...
I found a trick by myself. The problem is that the notification channel on android oreo reguarding an application "prevails" on the settings within the application itself, in this case whatsapp. If we want, as in my case, to receive notifications of a new message only in the notification bar (without pop-up on the screen) and without sound, it will not be enough to adjust the settings only within the application, but we will have to do it in the new "notification channels" introduced with oreo. However, there is one however, if we set the notification when a new message arrives on "low" (without sound and without visual interruption) at the next message, Oreo will change "by itself" this setting on high , with sound and pop-up screen. Even within the application itself the settings will be changed with the sound on, while those regarding the pop-up notification will remain the same, although the pop-up will be displayed theanyway. The only way to prevent Oreo from overwriting and shaking our settings is this: 1) Adjust the desired settings within the application (no sound, vibration on, NO pop-up) then go to the notification channel of whatsapp and set the importance of the message received on "high", then click on it and change the ringtone to "none". In this way we will to not receive the pop-up on screen notification and settings will be respected. It seems to work, although this morning the urgency of the notification was back on "urgent". Again changed, and seems to be back to normal now. Let me know your experience about that.
