Motorola Admiral :: Custom Tone Notification For Contact
Nov 19, 2011
Does anyone know if there is a way to set a custom tone for a contacts when receiving text messages? I would like to have indiviual sounds for contacts who sends me a text messages.
I'm a new user and having gone through all the information I have, I can only find a way to set a ring tone for emails and calls. Is there anyway to custom set a tone for a particular contact for when they BBM me?
On the LG G3 (Verizon) can one contact have its own notification sound in Messaging+ (for SMS), or is there only one notification sound for all SMS messages? I have a system monitoring contact that needs a very loud alert, but I have a family member who texts me constantly, and I want a quiet sound for them. Can this be done in the default Messaging+ app, and if not, is there an alternative?
I just discovered that if I add a new contact on the phone, using the stock contact app and being sure it is added within the corporate synch account, when the synch happens with outlook, the name transfers over, the phone number transfers over, but the email address is not transferring over. It is blank even though I added it on the phone. I add the email address a second time on the phone after i see the contact synch on outlook and it still doesn't transfer over. I tried it with a test contact on the phone and the same thing happens.
The ms exchange service (3rd party) is telling me to make sure the data is current on outlook and remove the account from the phone and re-synch the phone w/ exchange. However I can't tell how much info will be lost by doing this (and am not going through to compare contacts from outlook to the phone) so am discounting it for the moment. They then say that the phone handles the synching.
Prior to posting I added on the droid, the business name, title, address and notes to the contact and they synched to outlook, but still no email address. I rebooted the phone, no email address. I deleted the address, saved the contact, waited 5 minutes, added the email address back and no email address synch with outlook.
Disappointed in ability or lack of ability to customize notification profile. my bb was very friendly in this allowing me to change ring tones and separate out if I wanted notification of certain email accounts during day but not at night wish their was more ability to customize and break down notification. help with a work normal sleep mode but still unable to separate direct connect from phone call or text from email
After the update to android 3.1 my Xoom no longer plays the notification tone when I get Email, Calendar notifications, Twitter messages etc. etc. But it plays fine in the system settings menu.
I like this feature especially when driving, however, could it be modified to first wake the screen if it's blank then wait for a second press to end the call? If a notification appears during a call, there's no way to see it without hanging up on the caller.
I've had a strange, but very frustrating behavior on my phone twice recently. My alarm will go off, but it will not make any sound whatsoever. I have the app alarm clock extreme and the regular android alarm. During this time, neither will make any sound. The default alarm will vibrate, but alarm clock extreme will not - although it should. A soft reset will fix the problem. Additionally, my ringtones will not make any sound when someone is calling. I'm trying to remember how the behavior was this morning, but I feel like pressing the volume up and down keys while the alarm was going off first snoozed my alarm, but then beeped to let me know the volume level.
My Admiral freezes/lags when dialing/redialing and the Touchscreen is unresponsive. Its really bad on missed calls. I can hit the green dial icon 20 times in a row and nothing happens. Finally wait for about 30-60 seconds and it will dial.
I routinely reboot. Not running alot of apps. Latest firmware. I've also noticed the browser is slow to render webpages no matter how fast the connection is.
Just got a Sprint Admiral, paired my bluetooth with it easily enough (Blueant T1), but at random, the phone will disconnect and reconnect bluetooth.I have actually watched the bluetooth icon go dark, then light back up so I know it is not an issue with the earpiece itself. It is becoming very annoying, and talking to others who have this phone, they have reported the same issue with other bluetooth earpieces.
I just recently bought the Motorola MOTOACTV because I have the Motorola Admiral, and they are supposed to be able to work together. However Google Play states that the Motorola Admiral and the MOTOACTV app are not compatible. And while the latest release states that the MOTOACTV app should work with all Android 2.1 and higher, the Motorola rep that I called (level two, ID 5545142) states that the app will only work with the RAZR, which is contrary to everything put out about the MOTOACTV. I'd be interested to know if this is correct.
I was going to get a custom SMS tone because everyone I know uses tri-tone. I was wondering, what are your favorites SMS tones that you're using on your iPhone?
I want to have a custom text tone, but I can't figure out how. I've got ringtone and notification, but neither of those affect the actual tone when I get a text.
I have a galaxy6. I'd like to use the same custom ringtone for message tones for my special peeps. How do i copy, or download, a custom ringtone to message tone?
I couldn't find a thread with this specific problem. I have certain contacts that I have specific ringtones for when they call. But I don't want to have a custom text ringer for those people. Whenever I set a custom ringer for those contacts, it automatically changes the text ringer as well. Is there any way to only give them a custom call-tone and leave all text messages as the same tone?
- i set a custom ringtone for SMS for a contact (ie BBPro_Sanguine) - all other options (vol, LED, vib, etc) are set to "Active Profile" - hit "try it" and you get nothing. - if that person actually sends an SMS, either you dont get ringtone, or it does default Lightspeed tone.
also, if you set any of the other options (vol,LED,vib), the ring tone works: but if you do custom ringtone for voice calls, everything work as it should. started happening after i upgraded to the 428 leak. hasnt gone away since all the hybrids if installed.
I have a custom tone for text messages (SMS) but my 1520 stops playing it about halfway through.
I have had this tone for a while and I think it started only playing about 50% of it when I updated to WP8.1 Dev Preview. I've been hanging on to see if Cyan fixed it, but it hasn't. The funny thing is, every once in a while (maybe once per week) it will play the whole thing.
1. I created media/audio/notifications folder on my SD card and copied an mp3 file I want to set as a notification. 2. I rebooted my phone and opened settings, but my mp3-file hasn't appeared there.
I just got my new HTC One today...and I must say I'm in love and having tons of fun figuring this beauty out. I do have one issue I just can't seem to figure out, and I've researched relentlessly.
How do I give a contact a custom SMS Notification tone? I've figured out that I can give each contact their own ringtone, but nowhere am I seeing an option for text message notifications. The only SMS notification I can change is the default one.
how to set my notification tone ie like when you get a facebook reply or googlemail and it shows at top of phone.I have tried but when i do it changes me message tone to the same as my notification tone?
Switching to the S6 (Edge, actually) from a MotoX. Never owned a Samsung before, so still getting used to TouchWiz, etc.
Just looking for a way to set a custom ringtone per contact? I assume it will find my ringtones that I put in /sdcard/ringtones, but I can't find a way to assign them to my contacts.
When I send a message, I get a balance notification which also makes a text tone alert (same as when I receive a text). Is there a way to turn off the notification tone?
i only hav the phone 2 weeks and love it but when i look up the tutorial 2 change the tone it isnt the same set up as my phone could this hav anything 2 do wit upgrading my phone 2 the android 2.1?
So when I first got the phone, I managed to change my Notification tone from one thing to another. Now I just added a new tone that I downloaded, and I put it onto my phone. I set that new one as my CURRENT tone, but when people txt me, the tone is STILL the same as the one I set before... Even when I try a different ringtone that was on my phone, it still doesn't work...
just updated to 5.1.1 now when my phone is locked I get repeated notification tones but when I unlock phone there are no notifications or txt messages.
