If you click on Menu -> Settings -> Sound and select notifications, this is where you will set the default sound for any notifications other than phone ringer.

If you want Gmail to have it's own sound, open the Gmail app and go to it's settings and change it there. Same goes to all other apps you have. They each have their own notification settings in them.

I have 2 gmail accounts and i can set a different tone for each account by choosing the mailbox, then going to it's settings.

on my touch pro 2, i was able to set whatever rintone i wanted for email notification and incoming phone calls...... I used to have that AOL "You've got mail" for my email notification......but now on my EVO it doesnt seems as if i can do that.

Is there a directory that i need to copy all of my custom rintones into so they will show up in the list when i am choosing a rintone or notification. thats what i had to do for the touch pro 2.

Yes, on your SD card under media you can add two folders, one Notifications and the second one Ringtones.

You can set the notification sound in gmail BUT not in the HTC mail app.

I use a pop account and you can only use the default device notification sound for it. Your options in the HTC mail client for notification sounds is only OFF or ON.


HTC Mail App: From the HTC Mail app you go menu,more,settings,notification settings and you only have the ON or OFF notification options.


Gmail App: From Gmail app you go menu,more settings,select ringtone and then pick whatever you want for your notification sound.

In my "media" folder is another folder named "audio", then in that folder is a folder named "notifications", then in that folder is a lone file named "facebook_ringtone_pop.m4a"

Based on this information, would I STILL create the new folders in the "media" folder?

Example A:
media
|_audio
|_notifications
|_ringtones


Or would I create them in the "audio" folder"?

Example B:
media
|_audio
|_notifications
|_ringtones

On my tp2 running froyo 2.2 /media/audio/notifications DID NOT WORK

I had to put notifications in root ie /notifications

once I did that those sounds became available. oddly enough once I made /notifications NOW and ONLY NOW /media/audio/notifications ALSO appear to have become available (since I now have each sound twice ??)

gmail and wootwatcher let you specify custom sounds other than "system default"

ebay and package tracking do not.

now I was able to set package tracking and ebay to their own sound "kind of"

I set my default sound to what I want them to be because MESSAGING also lets you set a custom sound. :-)
