Separate Sounds For SMS & Email - OnePlus 7T Pro (Regular & McLaren) Q & A

I thought j had the sounds set to give a different alert for text and email but now I realize there's no option to differentiate. Has anyone found a way to make this work?

You can change SMS sound in sound settings don't know about email

All I can see is where to change notification sound, but no way to choose which notification.

Hello, if you want to receive a different sound notification for your mail, do it directly in the Gmail application settings, it is the only way I could do it, I hope it will be useful

Custom Notifications

When I used ringdroid on my G1 I was able to use it to select custom notifications for my alerts (gmail, SMS, etc..) On the Samsung vibrant even though I have ringdroid installed when I select notifications on gmail or sms I do not get the option use ringdroid or select non system notifications.
Anyone else having this issue or found a method for select custom notifications?
Are you sure you weren't using rings extended? Sounds more like it's functionality. Ringdroid is mostly for cropping audio.
Messages>application button> settings> Notifications That'll allow you to change SMS tones. You have to be on the messages main menu to get this to work.
I forgot how I changed the GMail one. I'll have to get back to you on it but it's probably the same thing.

Comprehension fail. He's having an issue showing custom audio notifications from the sdcard, not finding the menu to change them.
Thanks for trying.

You have to create a folder on the phone under media call notification, ringtones, alarms and put the files there

How to edit a sound set?

I am trying to assign a new "mail" sound to a soundset but It only gives you an option to listen to it along with other notifications. Does anyone know how to edit that?
Use root explorer and drop the new files you would like to use in the appropriate folder in /system/media/audio
I wonder why I can change the ringtone and notification but not email sound? The thunderbolt is like an iPhone it doesnt allow you to change the email sound
What email app are you using? You should be able to open setting inside the app and then change it from there... as in for gmail, open gmail, menu, more, settings, select ringtone. if you copied the ringtone you want in the folder i posted above it should show up in there now.
Stock email app syncing with exchange. When I click on menu, settings, notification settings I only get checkmarks for "email notifications" Notification sounds" and Notification Vibrate"
There is no option to choose a sound.
Tried to do this last night and it took me a while. I kept looking under the email settings and Sound but couldn't find it. You have to go through Personalize:
Settings--->Personalize---> Notification Sound
From there you can change Message, Calendar and Email.
I don't use that one but i believe that it using the default notification sound. Place your file in /system/media/audio/notifications and then reboot your phone. Go into settings, notifications and you should see the new tones listed.

Ha. I had set it up when I first got the phone. I added some CM7 notifications last night and for the life of me couldn't figure out how to set them again. I kept looking in email settings and Setting->Sound thinking I was crazy.

[Q] How to separate SMS ringtone from notification sound?

Hey,
I like stock SMS app but one thing is a bit annoying - I like to have SMS delivery reports but I'd like to set for it other sound or mute it...
I set SMS sound, but I'd like to mute notification (SMS delivery) tone. As far I know I am not able to do this? Any hack perhaps?
Other SMS apps like Go SMS, Handcent I do not like, so they aren't being taken into consideration

Wha? This isn't hard... Open Messaging app, Menu > Settings, scroll to the bottom.
I wrote it would change SMS tone too which is pointless ;]

You either ignored or didn't understand what the OP asked for.

Yeah, I missed the part where he was specifically asking about just the delivery notification tone. Sorry OP.

[Q] Changing SMS Notification Sound

Does anyone know of a way to change the Notification Sound for a contact individually? I know I can change the sound on the SMS app, but all of my contacts will play the same sound when I get a text. This was an issue on the LG G2 for Verizon also. I like the standard messaging app and would rather not install a 3rd party app. Any ideas would be awesome. Thanks.
As far as I'm aware, if you go in to your contacts and click edit or whatever, there should be an option to change the notification sound for that contact specifically. Hope I helped! Let me know if it works for you!

The only other option that comes up besides "Ringtone" is "Notification LED". Other than that I cannot find an option to change the notification sound.

Thanks for the reply. I know I can change the notification sound that way, but the problem with that is it will still have the same sound for all contacts. I want to change the SMS sounds on an individual contact bases thanks for the suggestion though.

The only way is to download a third party app..If you use the verizon one it will let you set up separate ones however when the thread is deleted so is the setting for that person.. Hoping they fix this..

Question Varying Notifications for Different Function Notifications?

Is it possible to set up different notification sounds for different functions? I would like to have a different notification for my Ring cameras as opposed to those for emails, texts, etc which are currently all identical. Is this possible? If so, how? TIA!
Yeah, Open the App Settings and Select the app you need to customize, then go to notifications and inside you'll find the option to set the type and ringtone you need. I've set alternate tones to work email app and personal email app this way.

Thanks. No option to change the notification type or ring tone in the App Settings that I can find.
