Hi all,
I've been lurking for a while now... Have a quick question on my zopo speed 7.
Wouldnit be possible to add a NO SOUND/Silent sound to the options for notifications? For gmail there's the option already but nor for yahoo or other email accounts. Can that be done somehow?
Thanks for your help.

This problem bothered me aswell. I wonder if it ever gets an official fix.
What i did: Put a silent.mp3 (1sec) from here http://www.xamuel.com/blank-mp3s/ in the /Notifications folder on the sdcard. Then choose in each app this Silent.mp3 as notification sound. works for me.
Thanks so much!!! Great fix.

Hi everyone,
I have recently upgraded from a TYTN II to a Hero. I have been using WinMo for years, so it's taking me a fair amount of adjustment to get used to Android. Overall, I am impressed with it.
I have a couple of issues, that are driving me insane :-
1. Is it possible to explore the Hero through Windows Explorer, like WinMo ?
If not, how can I get files to/from the Hero ? I have seen SugarSync, but surely there is a more seamless solution than this.
2. SMS Tones & Volume
Is it possible to select the SMS Tones (MP3), and increase the volume of notifications ? It seems there is ring volume, media volume but not notifications.
3. Removable Disk
The Hero appears as a removable disk in Win Explorer...can anything be done with this ? It needs to be formatted but I am loathe to try it.
Before anyone comments, I have spent the past 3 days going through all of the forums on XDA Dev looking for a solution.
My phone has been rooted...for what good it does !!
Thanks in advance,
Dan.
answers:
1) No. you can explore the sd card as shown in the manual and QSG, but you can not access the phone memory.
2) notifications uses the same volume as ringtones. in fact, in settings when you edit the ringer volume it tells you this on screen.
As for setting you own mp3 tones as notifications, this has been done in other threads, generally called 'custom notifications'. I am sure you will find it if you search again.
3) you shouldn't need to format it at all, as long as you have followed the instruction in the manual and quick start guide properly.
Thanks !
Hi Rhedgehog,
That's really helpfull. Although a strong case of RTFM ! I had already worked out how to get custom notifications on there, so that wasn't an issue.
Thanks for your stirling support.

Hi guys.
Sorry if i have posted in the wrong part of the forum, i have done a search but can't find the right place to post.
Just a bit of help using my new phone.
I can't figure out how to change my message tone to one i want (on my SD card),
Also i am unsure on how to forward messages on. :/
I will probably post here when i get stuck again, so really sorry if this is in the wrong place ...

Sharon, to forward a msg, long press it and options will pop up.
Regarding the ringtones and notifications, create two folders on the SDcard called ringtones and notifications, drop the files you want to use in this, post a restart it should come up in Settings-> Sounds options
Cheers,
Vikram.
P.S. a lot of the capability is stock Android so it would make sense for you to search in general android forums for answers instead of searching specific to this phone ...
Thanks for the responce I have managed to work out how to forward.
So any types of these questions i should go to an Android forum?
Sorry am new to this phone...
Thanks in advance

Is there a sent box on this phone or does it just come up with the conversation window.

SMS are based on conversations like gMail have. Some time I hate it, but many times it is most better solution that I ever seen.
About question - I think that its fine. I had same problems But I just used google.
Hey
I'm searching for CustomROM's that have the Noise Reduction set to OFF by default or have the possibility to install a mod for this ? If you are on a ROM that have this feature, plz post it here.
Thx alot
Mines not set to off by default,you set it yourself when you hit the menu tab during a call.Theres a call recordind mod file also.Take a look if you like.

Yeah. I know that is possible to switch it off during the call. But it's just annoying to do this in each call. Because of that, i was searching for a solution to have it off by default. But thanks anyway for the reply.

See this thread. It can offer details on how to recompile phone.apk to have NR off by default (except for the first call only after a reboot). If you browse the thread, some people have posted their recompiled .apk's with this feature. (NR off by default)
EDIT: I followed the link from cooza above; that ROM has this mod built into it. So he essentially gave you what you are asking for.
The GMail-App on my Xoom and my Nexus S (both with Android 4.0.3) is driving me crazy. In former times I could easily report mails as no spam.
That doesn't work anymore. Instead I guess it should be possible to mark the mails and label them as "Inbox". But that doesn't work, either. With some luck, it works with 1 or 2 mails, but the rest stays in SPAM, even though at first they disappear from the spam-folder.
Isn't there a way to do that? Why is there no real option to mark the mails as no spam?

Hi McDV,
I just upgraded to ICS and I am running into the same issue.
Given how few responses have been given, I think I'm missing something very obvious.
Did you manage to solve it already, and if so, how?
Thanks,
Charles
