NFC & Volumes - HTC Droid DNA

Since there's no way to split notification and ringer volume, does anyone know if there is there any way to create a task that will change the notification tone within individual applications? For example, at night I want all tones to be silent except for the ringer. It's a pain to have to manually change the tone to silent in GMail, GVoice, etc every night.. Any way to automate that with NFC tags?
Thanks

idk about NFC but if you set them all to default, you can change them with the default instead.

I set alerts to different tones so I can differentiate between them without looking at the phone. I suppose that will be useful if there is no other choice though.

Yes, definitely. One of the NFC apps I use is NFC SmartQ - it's free. One of the settings is to change the notification tone. You can create a "switch" tag so that when you tap it at night it changes it to one thing and when you tap it in the morning it changes it back to your daytime tone.
You can also accomplish this with Tasker and NFC Tags if you are familiar with Tasker, but it's not free if you don't already have it.

I'm using an app called Power Toggles that allows the split - not sure if that's what you're looking for.

I found an application that does what I was looking for. It's called Ringleader. Allows me to create Tasker tasks and import them into the NFC application.

If you don't want to use NFC tags, just get AudioManager...you can create profiles and just toggle through them through desktop shortcuts. Works just as well if you don't wanna mess with NFC. Now if only the lowest setting on the DNA was significantly quieter, we'd be in business.

Custom Notifications

When I used ringdroid on my G1 I was able to use it to select custom notifications for my alerts (gmail, SMS, etc..) On the Samsung vibrant even though I have ringdroid installed when I select notifications on gmail or sms I do not get the option use ringdroid or select non system notifications.
Anyone else having this issue or found a method for select custom notifications?
Are you sure you weren't using rings extended? Sounds more like it's functionality. Ringdroid is mostly for cropping audio.
Messages>application button> settings> Notifications That'll allow you to change SMS tones. You have to be on the messages main menu to get this to work.
I forgot how I changed the GMail one. I'll have to get back to you on it but it's probably the same thing.

Comprehension fail. He's having an issue showing custom audio notifications from the sdcard, not finding the menu to change them.
Thanks for trying.

[Q] Changing "System" Volume setting (for WhatsApp)

Has anyone found a way of altering the "System" volume through a Profile app or similar?
I've been using Quick Settings but it only changes "Ringtone", "Notification", "In-Call" and "Alarm" levels, i.e. four out of five, and can't update "System" volume. This means the noise that WhatsApp (for example) makes is the same whether I'm outside or fast asleep!
I thought in the sound setting menu u could alter 4 sound level which are in coming call, media, systems, and notifications.
That is what shown on my sound settings.

Sorry, you are absolutely correct! Only the three of In-coming, Media and Notifications can be changed by any Sound/Profile apps I've found. Apparently I can change the Alarm levels with different apps but that's not under the Sound Setting menu of the G2.
It is still the Systems level that I'm looking to automate changes to through an Profile app (ideally). I wonder if it's a Samsung thing or a Gingerbread thing...

Now i got your point..u are trying to find out any third party app for sound/profile that can make a quick change of your system sound level..
i got no info on this..maybe other members could point you in the right direction..

[Q] Custom Ringtones & SMS Tones

I was hoping that someone could show me an app that will allow me to set a custom ringtone and a custom SMS ringtones. The MoPho doesn't have the ability to set a certain ringtone to one person and it uses the same notification sound for everything else. I was also hoping that I could get an app or mod that will allow me to customize the vibrating patterns for calls, emails, and texts. Does an app like this exist?
u can do seperate ringtones for all contacts by going into contacts pull up menu of yone of ir contacts then go into options, there it will ask what ringer u want.

to download many unique tones and ringers try zedge app in market
To set a song or tone as a ringer believe u can go to music library and long press and has option to set
Also i used astro file manager go to folder where tones and music are and u can set a tone

I also want to control the vibration. The sms tones and what not.

Look for an app called "Lightflow" its a root app that should do exactly what your speaking about, lets you choose specific color for led, change vibrate settings, and ringtone settings for email, sms ,calls, etc. If your not rooted then not sure what to tell you, but if you are id def try out lightflow, ive been using it for a awhile now and i love it. Overall its pretty damn customizable for all the settings, especially the vibrate settings.

Is that it?
I'm not sure what the Bump policy is here...
Yeah thats the app i was talking about, it looks like a new update version, apparently mine just hasn't updated recently is all, but yeah thats it. Sorry for the long response time on my end
It slightly worries me cause it is constantly gaining permissions all the time. Is it safe?

Ive only had it come up requesting SU while on boot and if i change settings(i just hit the check to always allow). I can personally say i have had no issues with it, ive got a facebook, gmail, and few email accounts linked to it and it hasn't messed with those as far as ive ever noticed, and Ive used lightflow for about a month or two so far. Your call on it, if you don't feel its safe or what you want then dont load it up. To each his own!

MATE 20 PRO - Generic questions RE: notification sounds / contacts / ringtones

Guys,
For those out there who have this phone or are still testing. Can you:
Set different ringtones by contact (I can see you can only set 1 ringtone by SIM card in settings)?
Can you assign different notifications per app? Eg: a different sound to SMS receive compared to email received -- Can you set notification sounds in the native app itself while disabling the normal Huawei system notification otherwise?
LED notification PULSE light. Any one take a video of it displaying in the dark?
Can you set different LED colours by different notifications using a 3rd party app like LIGHTFLOW? Not sure if it has Pie support yet...
The fact that there's a 99% likelihood this phone cannot be unlocked to customise as I see fit is a big turnoff, meaning a lot of useful apps I have to go without...making Huawei stand up and tick more boxes is now extremely important
Any help is appreciated

Based from my limited reading, the OS itself is preventing this. I am a big fan of customized ringtones and notifications too. I'd know when it's my wife calling or when it's work or something else. I'm not closing my doors on this. I hope we'll get a solution real soon.
If you use Google contacts, click on the contact go to the 3 dots on the top right in the menu there is set ringtone
Google messages, settings, notifications, sounds
If you go to settings, apps, notifications, sounds you can set different tones for almost any app
weird, I don't see any "notifications" under apps as you've said

Even without Google contacts you can set tones for different people in the stock dialer contacts app, go to edit the contact and at the bottom there is a tab saying "more fields" and it will allow you to set custom ringtone. If you go to settings then apps and click the app you want to customize and at the very top it'll say 'notification management" click on that and then click on sound, and then you can pick a sound.

When you go into each app settings there is a notification option, sometimes it is under miscellaneous or more options.

I use Light Manager 2 from Google Play. Works pretty well for me with customisable colours of the LED.

In the stock contact app if you click on the contact person and edit, then go to more fields at the bottom there's a ringtone option there.

awesome, cheers for that. Shame it only lets you select from the start of the song. Coming from Samsung, it would give you that option as well as suggesting the "best" part of the track for a ring tone. which always worked really well. Do you know if there's anything like that in the software or even a 3rd party app that can do it?

Question Varying Notifications for Different Function Notifications?

Is it possible to set up different notification sounds for different functions? I would like to have a different notification for my Ring cameras as opposed to those for emails, texts, etc which are currently all identical. Is this possible? If so, how? TIA!
Yeah, Open the App Settings and Select the app you need to customize, then go to notifications and inside you'll find the option to set the type and ringtone you need. I've set alternate tones to work email app and personal email app this way.
