Notification Sound - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Where can I configure sounds to be different for email vs sms/txt messages?

When you open email and go to settings you will be able to set whatever tone you want and the same applies to sms (again go into settings)

Thanks. What do you guys use as notification noises?

Use anything you want. Google "Zedge" they have hundreds on there and you'll be spoilt for choice, and its free.

Settings -> Sound & display settings -> Notification ringtone.
If you want to add your own notifications and ringtones, create a "Ringtones" and "Notifications" folders on the SD card and put sound files in there.

The Skype notification sound is built into the skype app itself. The only way to change it is to decompile the skype apk using apktool, swap the sound files around, repackage it, sign it and push it back to your phone. Its quite complecated if you don't know what you are doing.

[Q] System Sounds?

Ok, has anyone been able to figure out how to change the notification sound of the built in Email client? (Not Gmail). It's an annoying bell and I see no option anywhere to change it. I've been through the system settings AND through the email settings -- maybe I am missing something.
Also, is there a way to change the water sounds to the regular Android sounds?
Thanks in advance!!
Not sure about email client but to change to android sounds u need to root.
Extract ringtones u want from a different Rom...ie an S2 ics Rom for example.
Then use root explorer to place new tones in /system/media/audio/ringtones.
Reboot and the new tones should show up in settings for u to select. .
Hope this helps.

Mine show up under the email settings...
Open the e-mail>>settings>> select the email address that you have added... scroll to the bottom... Notification settings...
This is a per e-mail account setting so they are "hidden" under each attached account

Thanks! I'm already rooted, but there is no option to change touch tone sounds, even if I added more to the directory.

So basically it's just like the Gmail settings then? Cool. Thanks.
Found them, they are all in the UI directory. One controls touch, one is for back, etc. They all have to be changed in order to get rid of the 'water' sounds.
It's called: /system/media/audio/ui/
The two files I have found so far are:
TWTouch.ogg
S_HW_Touch.ogg
Now if I could just find the standard Android touch tones somewhere.

[Q] [IMPORTANT] Where is a default notification ringtone location?

Today I changed the notification ringtone with "Ringtone Maker" app from Google Play.
Then I deleted the sound file from sd card.
In Settings / Sound as "default notifications" is now: Unknown ringtone.
When I receive a TEXT message I hear a different version of Over the horizon. It is a little different than the original one.
In /system/media/audio/ringotones I found S_Over_the_horizon.ogg - but it's not this one!
Also it's not Over the Horizon from: /sdcard/Samsung/Music/Over_the_horizon.mp3
So my question is: Where this "default notification sound" is located in?
they are in /system/media/audio/ringotones
Notifications ringtones are under system/media/audio/notificatios not ringtones
It's not there, as I said:
in /system/media/audio/ringotones I found S_Over_the_horizon.ogg - but it's not this one!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There is not Over the horizon in system/media/audio/notificatios
It must be somewhere else... I checked all .ogg and .mp3 files on the phone, and didn't find that version of Over the horizon...
How can I check the location of currently SMS ringtone?
Lol for a folder with ringtones/notifications on your sd card
nobody knows?
Have you looked for a folder related to ringtone maker?

I have looked everywhere.
This is not Ringtone Maker's sound. It's a default Samsung's ringtone. It sounds similar to: S_Over_the_horizon.ogg but with a little different tone.
It must be hidden somewhere. I think it's in SecSettings.apk, but I can't open resources.arsc file in it...

[Q] RootBox Information help

Hi yesterday i've flashed RootBox v3.5 stable(not nightly).
So far i'm very impressed with the smoothness of RB, aswell as deep sleep ratio with stock kernel.
If possible i would like to have some information about this rom, that i havent found using search in rootbox thread.
How do i display only my SIM contacts ? ( i was able to import them from SIM card to phone, but i would like to have the option to only view the contacts from my SIM card)
How do i insert a new contact only to my SIM ? ( after importing SIM card contacts, if i try to add a new one, it will go directly to my google account, but i only want to add a new contact to SIM card, i've tried clicking in everything but can't find the option to insert only in SIM card)
How do i change the Keyboard style from texting ? (I've noticed there is only one keyboard layout, any zip or something that i'm able to flash to get numeric keyboard)
Any way to change the SMS layout bubbles ? (i've only found mms, i would like to have bubble speech baloons with different color for sender/receiver )
Where can i set a sms or call sound file from my mp3 ? ( i've search for it, but i can't find any option to select a mp3 sound from my phone)
When i insert my 3.5mm headphone jack, there isnt any notification of it in status bar, and when i go to Settings - RootBox Settings - HeadSet and active it, it gives me FC on DSP Manager.
So far this is the only problems i've got, where the real "bug" was the last one.
Appreciate all your help.
Best Regards

U can't only show the SIM contacts.
Only thing u can do is import or export the contacts from or to zip.
That's not possible with stock keyboard. U have to use a third-part keyboard here like 'Go keyboard' or 'SwiftKey' [look at playstore]
This one's have&manage Designs.
MMS is in this point the app. So u write the SMS via the MMS.apk.
So this means u can go to the Message app > settings > mms theme...
Here u can set bubble style in massagelist or kind of this
Tey to coy the mp3's to System > media > audio...
For sms sound: notification
For call sound: ringtone
Not this should appear in settings of phone (ringtone) or the message app (sms).
If this won't work, u have to convert the mp3 to Ogg first.
Why u want a notification?
The is no notification - so if it works, all is fine.
Because FCs in DPS, just ignore this and wait for newer version in this case.

[Q] Notification sounds

Is there an app out there that allows me to attach different notification sounds for different types of notifcation. For example, I want it to play a different sound for email than it does for SMS.
I've had a look at Tasker in the sticky but it looks to complicated for a complete NOOB like me.
I've done a search in this forum but couldn't easily find anything that helped.
I'm running unrooted 4.2.2.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Hi there man,
all you need to do is set the notification from the app itself.
for example gmail: go to settings>[email protected]>notification and change to whatever you'd like.
If you wanna add different types of notifications you can either use an app from playstore like "zedge" or copy to your device in the path: /sdcard/notifications

Cheers, I'll try that
You might try the app Light Flow. In addition to changing led lights it can also change the sound notifications of apps. It's available in Google Play and the paid version has the notification sounds manager.
