[Q] App for This?

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?

[Q] SMS silence notifications when in app

Apologies if this has been addressed already, but I didn't see any posts about this. I want my SMS app to silence the notification tone when I receive a new text if I'm already inside the actual app. For instance, if I'm texting someone while inside GoSMS, right now the notification tone sounds while I'm typing and the other party is texting me at the same time. I only want the notification tone to sound when I'm not already in my SMS app, because it's rather annoying to get a loud tone to notify me of a text that I can clearly see already.
Similar to how the iPhone only sounds the notification tone when outside their SMS app, but does not sound the tone while the user has the SMS app open.
Is there a way to do this? Perhaps another SMS app that has this functionality? I've used GoSMS and Handcent and have not seen this option.
Thank you!

[Q] Whatsapp custom notification sounds

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.

[Q] Different Notification Sounds for Individal Contacts (Texts)

Hi,
Is there a way to set different text message notification sounds for different contacts? I'm not referring to ringtones. Using the same notification sound for all text messages makes each incoming text a priority to check. Coming from a Note II I was able to assign distinct notification sounds for all contacts (ringtones and text messages).
Thanks.

You might need to download a different text message app on the play store to do that. I don't think you can do that on stock ones

You can do that with GoSMS Pro https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jb.gosms
Thank you for the responses.

I use an app called Ringo for ringtone and message tone management.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.electricpocket.ringo&hl=en_GB
iirc Hangouts now has that option to have individual ringtones for messages received
either that, or you can use LightFlow, it enables you to set custom notifications (and LED colors) for many apps
Xposed also has a mod for that ($-ware)

Whatsapp notifications for new messages & muted chats

Dear folks,
got some whatsapp notification questions:
1. Is it possible to see counterbadges on whatsapp icon for muted chats? So no banner, no popup, just a counterbadge on the whatsapp icon when new messages being sent in muted chats.
Maybe with another launcher than the huawei?
2. Everytime a new whatsapp message is incoming via banner, every other unread notification of whatspp are shown too. I only want to see the new incoming whatsapp message notification in the banner. the older unread ones should only shown in the notification center. Possiblo?
Thanks,
