What is your current notification (message alert)?

**envoynv** · 01-09-2010, 10:30 AM

I have been struggling to find a good message alert. What is everyone else using?

**lucky4meman** · 01-09-2010, 01:29 PM

I'm using a tone called car unlock. It does two beeps like when you arm a car alarm. It's short and gets your attention without becoming annoying. It's actually a very pleasant sound.

Here is the file that I use for my notification. The car lock sound. Let me know what you think.

**Ripjames** · 01-09-2010, 01:33 PM

I'm just using the regular one that was set up when I got it, I should look around for a new one just for kicks

I use the text message tone supplied by (only viewable in the UK I am afraid) of Alexander the Meerkat informing you that "you are receiving an important message. Simples..." from the Compare the Market / Compare the Meerkat adverts over here in the UK.

Sad, I know...

"Sound_106"

It's a file I grabbed from some site that has a bunch of Flash interface sounds and graphics.

I have a Star Trek computer beep that I got off of a Star Trek Soundboard from the Market

Thanks everyone for your input. If anyone else has any to share I would appreciate it.

Could you explain to me your avatar? I have seen these scan like symbols around much more these days. How are these generated? Are they replacing the standard vertical bars for UPC codes?

use your phone barcode scanner to read the code.

to generate your own...

Thanks for the link to the generator... I'm sure quite a few people were wondering about this... BTW I have always used "chiff" stock tone.... I just liked it from day one and even though I can change it, I don't. It's short and "cute"....

I use the stock one called friendly. Although I found the 24 sound on my computer from when I used my blackberry so I may start using that.

Do you mind posting the file? I am a huge 24 fan, with the season starting on Sunday I would LOVE to use it.

Thanks.

I'm using Major, because it sounds like a 1-up in Super Mario World.

**bp3dots** · 01-14-2010, 08:15 PM

Old school motorola pager ringer. its a nice flashback.

**doublebullout** · 01-15-2010, 08:38 PM

I've been using the doorbell jingle from The Jetsons for years now. First sound file I load on any phone. It works really well, and it's a real crowd pleaser when I demo it.

I am liking this one. Thanks for sharing. What notification sound is everyone else using?

I know there has to be more of you out there with customs sounds.

Does anyone have one from the show 24?
