Is there any way to assign different notification (SMS, MMS, etc) sounds to different contacts? I know how to assign different ring tones but I am wanting to also assign different notification sounds. Any ideas or apps?
a while back i used Ringo which allowed tones to be assigned to different contacts. you could also try mortring but that's for wm2005. link as follows:

and there's also steelsoft RingSmsToneManager.

Hey ...
Just wondering how to change the notification sound for emails.. when i change the notification sound in the sounds section, its applicable only for sms etc etc...and not for the email..i could change it in s2 and note but unable to do it in s3...its the same 'tring' sound always...
Look in the settings of the email app you are using. You can often set custom tones there. For instance, I have a custom tone set for my gmail accounts. Granted, the setting is in each individual accounts settings, not the general settings. You should be able to do this for most apps. I have my notification sound set as silent, but I set one in my messages app, in gmail and in calendar, all different from each other.

ya..thanks..stupipd me!!
I need to know are there any app that can use different notification tone for group of contacts SMS?
Eg- News alerts, different notification.
I don't know how many people use Whatsapp, but I've been trying to get custom notifications for my contacts. You can assign custom ringtones and custom notification sounds to your contacts on the contacts app, but in whatsapp, you can only select the ringtone. Has anybody been able to get whatsapp to use the notification sound instead of the ringtone?
Before anyone suggests it, I dont want to use a notification tone for the contacts ringtone. I use custom ringtones a lot to know when I need to quickly answer the phone or if I can let it ring and call back later.
Thanks!!

I believe not as the developer for whatsapp has not implemented this feature.

I cant work out how to assign different ringtones to different callers in my contacts list. I can enter edit mode in contacts view and change notification sound, and can change group membership, but I cannot change ringtone. I have tried it with the fiull contacts file copied from Google to Phone...makes no difference. I cannot see how to copy contacts to the SIM...maybe that is what is required..? Can anyone help please..?

I dont see anything unusual. Do you not have this ringtone line on your edit contact screen? All my contacts are just on google, not on phone or sim.
Are you trying to change to a stock ringtone, or a custom one? I had trouble changing to some custom tones, then i realized the phone didn't like the capitalization of the folder in which my ringtones were in, after changing the folder name from "Ringtone" to "ringtone" I was able to change.
I had that issue also. I went into settings/sound and notification and turned off "Ringtone ID". When that was turned off, I was able to assign specific ringtones to specific contacts.
Perhaps that may help?

Try checking in each app. I use YAATA for texting and can set not only a specific ringtone for incoming messages but I can also assign different ringtones for different contacts.
Thanks...
