Galaxy S5 :: Personalized Text Tones For Stock Messenger
Jul 16, 2015
Is there a way to add personalized tones for the stock messanger? I know how to do ring tones but they do not work for texts. If there is no way is there a different app to use?
Ive had it less than a week and im getting more familiar with its features and how it operates, however, ive set up the BB instant messenger using PIN.
Now, the main problem is the sound notifications for the messenger.
In "BlackBerry Messenger Alert" I set "out of holster" to 'tone' and the volume to 'medium'. And, in:
"BlackBerry Messenger New Message" - The same.
When i recieve the INITIAL chat request, my phone makes the sound ive set. Once in the messenger chatting i still get the notification sounds.
I have tried all manner of different setting from muting, and setting 'tone' to 'none'; both in holster and out of holster.
Basically, i want my phone to notify me of the initial/new message, but NOT beep/sound during the actual conversation.
Can anybody point me to where i can get the stock BB ringtones? mainly the ones for messages? not using a BB at the moment and would like those for old times
Recently went into the keyboard settings to clear the personalized data stored with the predictive text feature on the default Samsung keyboard. However, it appears that an update somewhere along the way moved the location to clear this personalized data.
I used to drill down in the language and input settings menu, into the Samsung keyboard options, and could enter into the "predictive text" menu. However, that menu has been replaced with a toggle switch that will simply turn predictive text on or off.
I have a new Samsung Galaxy S5. I have set personalized ringtones and personalized text message sounds for my friends and family. I know how to do that! The problem is, some of these don't "stick" and what I mean by that is, even though on the contact info it says that personalized ringtone or text sound is set, when I get a call, the default ringtone or message sound plays. And it's not consistent. Some personalized ones work, others don't. They all worked on my S4.
How to resize it and keep it that way? I use the pinch feature to make it smaller but when I exit the app and go back to it it reverts back to the default size. I went into the settings and there is a font size selection, but it never changes the size.
I've been trying to figure out for weeks how to remove things from the predictive text dictionary. All the instructions I've found have had some version of long-pressing on "Predictive text" in the settings menu, but all that does for me is toggle it on or off. It doesn't open a new menu. I don't want to turn it off completely. I just want to delete my personalized typing history.
Two other things I've already tried with limited success:
Long-pressing on a suggested word so that it says " 'X word' will be removed from learned words" works for that specific word about 75% of the time, but it still sometimes continues to come up as a suggestion, and it only works on a word-for-word basis. I want to delete my entire history.
Going to the application manager and clearing the cache and data for the keyboard app deletes all of my personalized settings and appears to clear the text predictions for my SMS texting app, but it does not seem to clear my typing history for non-Samsung apps. Specifically, I use Aquamail to read and write emails, and I can literally rewrite an email using the predictive text on my keyboard.
I receive several text mesasges during the day. Some are very urgent and need to be responded immediately. Some are just information and some are communications from friends or family. Is it possible to have different sounds for different senders including none for some?
I just upgraded to 5.1.1 and some of my text tones reverted back to default and I cannot reset them. What do I need to do to reset them to individuals?
My custom tones were working as of yesterday...now they only work for phone calls and not text messages.This is for some not all of the ringtones though. What did i do wrong?
I've recently got an HTC Desire and although sceptical about the Android platorm I have been very impressed with how intuitive it is and managed to work out where most things were pretty quickly.
I am struggling to personalise the SMS/Email tones to indicate a new message. Also, I can't find how to personalise the alarm clock tone. is there an app available to allow me to personalise these tones?
I haven't set anything different for anyone, but yet I get different ringtones and text tones sometimes for different people, can i reset all tones, if so how?
Ok I have noticed that on the Torch the text tone is the same for everyone even if you assign a ringtone and tone for message for a contact. Before on the 9700 when you received a text, e-mail whatever tone was assigned to that contact came through. I guess that feature is gone.
When I edit a contact to assign it a ringtone or text tone, I get a different list than the sounds in the Notification center. It shows far fewer ringtones, and it doesn't even show me any text tones.
This is what the notification list looks like, and it has all the sounds- alarms, ringtones and text tones:
This is what I see when I edit a contact. Not only does it look like crap, it doesn't even contain any text tones when I select "+Text tone":
The two lists are different! Why I can't pick the same sounds for contacts?
when i try to type a number for call is just dont play any sound, or messaging, and if i received a message i can't hear it, so i don't even know when i have a new message.
I recently installed the new OS (.607) for the Storm 2 9550 (Verizon) using DM. Everything seemed to go over well; didn't backup my contacts and lost BBM contacts (i didn't think to back them up, Whoops :x ) Anyway, i had SMS alert tones for specific contacts which i had edited while adding the contacts when i first got the phone, back in October/November. When a said person texted/called, the tone that i assigned worked like a charm. Fast Forward to a few days ago (whenever .607 was officially released), i was re-adding my contacts (thank god i still have my old LG Dare), and putting in the custom tones for the specific people like i had before (the ringtones are saved on my 16gig memory card) and i noticed that when one of them called, the tone works as it should. However, when i get a SMS from them, it plays the default SMS tone (which is also custom). The same thing happens with MMS messages as well. Any ideas as to why the default tone plays instead of the custom one i specified? (I tried taking out the "-" in the phone #, since when i enter them in my contacts, i enter the number like so: (XXX)XXX-XXXX) but when i do that, the SMS shows up in my BBM chats with the BBM alert (was a suggestion i found while Googling the issue).
my phone constantly is on vibrate. no incoming call ring tones or text message notifications. turned it on and off and no, it's not on the vibrate option
Whenever i receive a text message, a ringtone then text tone sounds. But when i go into 'Settings > Sounds > Text Tones' it shows i have selected one text tone and one ringtone. The ringtone it shows i have selected is not the one that plays when i receive a message,how to remove the ringtones from my text messages all together!...Iphone 5C. IOS 7.1.2
1) I can't seem to figure out how to set text message tones for each individual contact for my 8520? Is this possible? (I have the T-mobile 8520 Curve if that makes a difference?)
2) How do I update my operating system for my 8520, from the T-mobile network?
I purchased several text alert tones on my iPhone, where they work nicely, but they don't show up in my purchased list on iTunes on my PC, so I cannot transfer them to other devices. How can I transfer text alert tones to my other devices?
I have a blackberry 9800 torch with the latest version of blackberry messenger on it.When typing and message and sending the message, the txt stays and wont clear at all.I have to delete the txt by deleting it. Only way to fix it is to uninstall and reinstall messenger then it will be fine for a day or two then it starts again.
So I just installed the newest update as of 12/14/15 not sure when it was released. But anyway. Since then. My s5 has been giving me non stop message tones when nothing is there at all. No new notifications. No new anything. I turned the sound off completey and it will still vibrate.
I have a SGS5 on Verizon wireless with the most recent software update from last week.This morning I changed my phone's battery and my custom ringtones--for Gmail and stock messaging apps--are no longer working and no longer appear as options in the settings for both apps.The custom ringtone files are still on the phone.I've tried re adding them, and copying them to different folders; I also tried searching for any of the existing stock sounds but nothing comes up with I search for "Postman" "harp" or "dew drops."
After I send a text message in google messenger the screen scrolls up and I have to scroll down quite a bit to get to the current part of the conversation. I didn't seem to see anything in the settings.
