Most apps have built in notification settings in the app's menu.
Open the app you want to change the notification> [phone menu button]> Notification
Additionally, you may find the app RingDroid useful:

Try Rings Extended from Market. It is what you are looking for.

Any of the current available options on Android do not allow you to change system sounds (lock/unlock/keyboard typing/etc) but if you are Rooted you can do it manually by using Root Explorer, navigating to System/Media/UI and replace the files accordingly.
Remember to use the same name and reestablishing the correct file properties for them to work after a reboot.
Cheers!

What happened to the ability to trim the ringtones? I only see a way to set them as they are? I am not interested in a 3rd party app, I loved how it was built in!
Trim It and Ringtone Trimmer are listed in the Applications list, but I have no idea how to launch them. Does anyone know?

IN music go to set as ring tone, then shorten will be either an option or the default.. IIRC

Works for me. Menu > more> set as ringtone> trim ringtone. Right from the music app.

Ever since I got my Atrix I've been searching for a way disable this annoying lock-screen, but couldn't find any good way. There is an app "no lock" witch worked somewhat ok, but had some quirks here and there.
Today I accidentally stumbled upon a key in a database that allow disable it once and for all.
You'll need SQLite Editor (or if you know how to manually write database queries...)
open com.motorola.android.providers.settings -> settings.db -> settings
Search for screen_lock and change value from 1 to 0
Reboot and enjoy Atrix with no lock screen whatsoever.
where exactly is that file located? my SQLlite editor doesnt see it....
Good find... actually works. My widgets didn't quite no what to think, since a good part of them usually load behind the scenes... bogged down the launcher initially, but caught back up without any problems. Widget locker still works too.
You should post this in the general section.

Is that in GB 2.3.4? In stock 2.2.1 sqlite editor shows it as com.motorola.android.providers.settings
theres an app call "battery indicator pro" which can disable lock screen very well. i have it disable my Atrix's lock screen by accident and it worked great.

This worked perfect... Thank you
hey guys.
this is one of my favorite apps. I've been running it since I had my Evo 3D nearly two years ago...and i'm still running it on the Note II. I thought some of you may be interested.
this is a themed, modded version of Video Caller Id (Free)
What I did was theme most of the image files to match the JellyBomb black/ICS blue look. Even now that I don't have JellyBomb I still love the look. I also made a few .xml changes so the layout of the information on the screen is a little better than the original.
YOUTUBE VIDEO
here is a YouTube video showing the app, the settings and some of the video ringtones i'm also including in this thread.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCtXHmIasyQ
INSTRUCTIONS
Code:
To Install:
Copy VideoCallerID.apk to /system/app/
Set permissions to RW-R--R--
Reboot. Enjoy.
---
Recommended Settings:
Activate the service = checked
Float video-view = unchecked
Use monitoring = checked
Opening delay option = 100ms (for Note II), 400ms (for S3), increase if the app doesn't start up when you get a call.
Ringer view = customize to your liking, I have all checked
Sound
- Video without sound = to your liking, I have it unchecked
- Maximum volume = to your liking, I have it checked
- Mute ringtone = unchecked (and set your ringtone on the phone's settings to silent, this works much better than having the app mute the ringtone for you)
- Say contact name = to your liking, I have it unchecked
---
How to use:
When you open the app, you see your contacts. You can set individual video ringtones per contact:
- Next to the contact's name, click on the Andy icon with the + sign, and then choose select video file.
- Browse to your video and select it.
- Now you can click on the contact's name and preview and change options for that specific contact
To set system-wide video ringtone:
- Click on the wrench icon on the top right
- Click on Default video
- Choose a default video for all contacts (with the exception of those with custom video ringtones)
- Choose a default video for unknown/blocked callers
- You can also preview whatever video is already set by pressing on the icon for that video.

Quick question max does it only use one ringtone or does it play the contacts custom tone as well. And I wonder if it can be tweaked to work on my evo as while

It works as the original did. You can set videon ringtones for each contact and a general one.
All I have done are aesthetic changes.

So when answering do u still have to answer the call twice? Like if u slide to answer or decline, does the default answer screen POP up next and u have to answer or decline the call again?

No? I never had that issue...I think it may be a side effect from the opening delay setting under the options. I have mine set to 0 and I can answer and decline calls just by using the app.

Can anyone else confirm that u don't have to answer twice. I've had the pay for version of this app, damn near since it came out, and I've always had to answer twice. I wonder is the widget locker app that ur using changing this. I've tried changing the delay to 0ms, and I still have to answer twice. I haven't tried out this "revised version" because u said u just changed the aesthetics. But if i get more confirmation, that this is working, I'll definitely give it a try.

Exactly. I asked as well and the op said that u don't have to answer twice to accept calls. I too have the paid version. I'm about to try this and see what happens. I also have widget locker so I'll see what happens and post my results.
Edit: okay so after doing some testing with the app. I can confirm that u still have to answer the call twice. Even with widget locker it doesn't seem to override the default ringer. And I couldn't get the android man to play either. I had to pick my own videos that I made myself. Great app but having to slide to answer once and press the accept button again is a little annoying at times.
Sent from my Beastly EVO.. And did I mention it has 3D?
guys I saw the comments here and this issue is also on the market comments.
I have never tried the paid version. using this version, I have no problems.
however, I don't have the rosie sense installed. I use Widgetlocker and Launcherpro. I use easywake on widgetlocker so the htc lockscreen is disabled.
my settings in the video caller app are as follows:
Activate service = checked
Use monitoring = checked
Opening delay option = 0 ms
video without sound = unchecked
maximum volume = checked
mute ringtone = checked
Under ringer view I have:
all options checked except "swipe to answer" and "use hardware buttons"

I don't know if this will make any difference for you. as I said, the app works flawlessly for me. hope it works well for you too.
please let me know if it works.
MAN THIS IS AWESOME, hella funny i got a dancing droid now lol....
EDIT 1: i don't have to answer twice on my evo 3d..... just saying works flawless

In apps like Gmail and Franco's kernel updater, there is a new interface element that brings out a drawer on the left side on Phone DPI that on Tablet DPI is a split screen.
Is this something that has to be programmed into the app, or something that can be edited into older apps? Mainly I would like that interface in the stock Email application.

Its an extra menu that the developer integrated into the app,you can probably with the permission of the developer,change some values and add some also,to get that side menu on your email app,it will be in an .xml file somewhere.

It is the stock, Android email app. Pretty sure I don't need to ask permission to change something that is open source. :+)

Yea i like the side menus.
I want to do a simple thing - change the notification tone in Whatsapp to be different than the system default tone.
I go to Whatsapp settings and tap the notification tone, I select 'audio files' to view system tones but I get an empty list.
Im with Miui 10.2.3 official global version and all Whatapp permissions are enabled.
It is really frustrating as I see no documentation for this anywhere and saw no one that complains about it but me. Found no similar thread anywhere.
Any thoughts?
You can complete the action using File Manager and select whatever the Audio File you want.
I'm not sure but one of these extensions should work .Mp3 .M4a .Ogg

Found out the solution is completing the action using 'Themes'. As weird as it sounds....

How did you change the notification sound using 'Themes'? I'd really appreciate you taking me though this, it's been driving me crazy for ages!

You go to Whatsapp Settings > Notifications > Hit 'Notification Tone' (either under Messages or Groups section) > Select 'Themes' when asked to 'Complete The Action Using'.
Let me know if that helped you or not
I had the same issue and it has nothing to do with updating to latest MIUI version. If you have already updated all your system apps, then just uninstall updates of the "Themes" app and the issue will be solved. Apparently the issue is caused by the new update of "themes" app.

As I mentioned above - Themes was the solution, not the problem I mean, I didnt realize at first that the notification tones are accessible via Themes.
