My Evo 3D plays the first notification in the list of available notifications instead of the one selected. This affects only the default notification and not application specific notifications. For instance, I set text messages to a specific notification and that still works. I have rebooted phone etc.
I perm-rooted two days ago and it worked up until about an hour ago.
After extensive searching I have figured it out. For some reason the Android settings and the Sense 3.0 settings don't cooperate. You need to go to Menu>Personalize>Personalize Sounds. Select the current Sound Set and you can customize all your notifications/ringtones there.
Oddly I had this issue running sense 3.0 roms on my og evo, but, working fine on my 3vo

I am having an issue where the notification tone i have set will only play for new gmail. Exchange emails play the 'Alpha' tone. Anyone else having this issue?
Having the same problem here. I changed the default notification sound under sound settings to "bubble" and my active exchange account still plays alpha. There is no setting within the exchange account to set a custom tone.
ok, glad its not just me. Hopefully fixed in the next OTA
From the main screen press the personalize button (lower right), select "Notification sound", and set your email notification tone from there. It should work - I think this is new in Sense 3.0 (I initially discovered this using MikG's rom for my Evo 4g works on my 3d).

You are a legend sir... Thank you so much!
i am running senselssrom 2.1 so the "personalize" function is stripped out because of the lack of sense, so this is not an option for me. so i have to change the notification sound by going to Settings>Sound>Notification Sound, but this still plays the "Alpha" sound. all other notification sounds are easily changed, but i can't figure out why this one won't work. i haven't had any luck and any help would be greatly appreciated.

you'll need to fire up sense for this as far as i know. Not sure if there is any other way.
i thought about doing that but it doesn't quite make sense (no pun intended) because this is the exact same way that i change the phone's ringtone and that works. if i was unable to change the ringtone, i would completely agree, but i can change that freely just not the exchange email notification sound.
Is there a way to change the default sound to something other then the pre-loaded HTC sounds? I was able to change the phone ringtone to a song on my sd card. When going to settings, phone ringtone there is a new ringtone button which let me choose whatever I want but when I go to the default sounds I do not have that option. The only option I get is, get more, which takes me to the HTC hub. I tried ringdroid and made a ringtone but it don't show up. I also installed tone picker but it doesn't show up either. Another strange thing is, I am using handcent and have a mp3 selected within handcent but when I get a text it uses the default notification instead. Anyone else having this problem?
I had similar issues. I used HTC Hub to download a new ringtone package, and found out that it just over writes everything I may have had selected.
I've had to go in and redo my ringtone and message notifications a few times, mostly after I hook it up and enable SD storage on the computer.
If I have someone call or send a text message while its hooked up as storage, it changes EVERYTHING back on mine to the stock sound settings.
Ok what i did with mine was use astro file manager to take whatever mp3s i wanted for notifications and copied and pasted them into my notifications folder which will be located in your media folder,open astro click sd card then click media then audio then notifications and paste whatever you want to hear for notifications sounds in there then when you go to your list they should show up and work like a charm.
I think I did that with a file manager and it still didn't show under Notification sounds. You need to hit set as once the desired file is highlighted and set it as a notification that way.
Use Zedge. Its a free app and you can select it as default instead of using system. Works wonders!

Menu --> Personalize --> Notification Sound
This is where you can change the default notification sound as well as the sound for the email app, the messaging app, and the calendar.
This took me awhile to figure out. A new feature of Sense 3.0. Possibly introduced in Sense 2.1. Not sure. But different than the EVO either way...

How do I get the previews to show up? Not the 4 app shortcuts but the preview if you get a text message or misses call it'll pop up on tje lock screen. My wife's EVO 3d does it

It should do it automatically. What lock screen are you using? (Ex. Wallpaper, Stocks, Weather, etc.)
You have to have notification turned on for sms. Phone should work on its own.
Im using weather and its not. Im using regular sense 3.0 lock screen no custom launcher

i have the same setup as you, weather lockscreen and no custom launcher.
i do get the missed call/sms notifications. i didn't change any settings and don't remember turning on any notification for phone calls anywhere.
perhaps experiment with other lockscreens to see if you get missed call notifications on them? at least you'll be able to determine if just the weather one doesnt show the notifications or if all your lock screens dont show notifications?
the other solution which comes to mind if wiping the lockscreen data settings storage with the assumption perhaps something got corrupted somehow.
might be worth double checking any type of notification toggle for missed phone calls, although i don't recall seeing that ... prob worth checking sms notification toggle also.
hope that helps, let us know.
I don't get the sms notice but I am using handcent...I do get the missed call notice....Using viperrom and the weather lockscreen.
Go into settings -> privacy -> display message text. Make sure that is checked and you should be good to go
Oh? Your iPhone can't view this 3d content?

Hey guys im new to the photon from the nexus S and E3D. So im wondering wjat cool features have you discovered. Like does the led support multiple colors or little things that just popped out at you
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
The LED does have several colors. I use SMS pop up which let's you control it for SMS. There is another app called LED light flow that is more customizable. Other them that the phone is just fast I am just trying to theme this thing how I like it.

1. Car dock app allows adding 4 apps (very different from the Epic car dock app, which doesn't)
2. Calendar allows adding multiple alarms to events, so can set an alarm for a day before and an hour before event (don't remember my Epic doing that)
3. Can easily create app groups in stock launcher
Those are a couple I can think of off-hand.

I know voicemail notifications have always been a problem, or at least on the HTC phones that I've had in the past. I just got the DNA this week. There is the usual option to set your default (system) notification sound in the sound profiles under main settings (Menu/Settings/Sound/Notification Sounds/Default Notification). But, there's also an option for setting an individual notification sound for your voicemail in the voicemail settings (Voicemail/Menu/Settings/Voicemail Settings/Notification Sound). However, when I set/apply my sound file for voicemail notifications, it still uses the sound file that I have set for the default system notifications.
Does anyone else have this problem, or know of a solution?
Thanks!

Does anyone else have the same problem as me? Using separate sound files for Voicemail Notification and Default Notification?
All my HTC phones lose Sense once I get them (unlock and s-off within the hour I buy them and put an aosp based ROM on), and I have never encountered this issue in any AOSP/CM ROM I tried.
