Email notification driving me nuts!

[andonakis]

My email notification is changing on me constantly. I change it to a different sound and it keeps going back to the droid sound. I can't believe it. I'm like laughing out loud out of frustration. So this is what I did to the suggestions I found searching for an answer.
1. I set the android sound to default, like one suggested.
2. I put the sounds in a separate folder called notifications in the root the sd card, like another suggested.
But still no success. The sound mysteriously goes back to the droid sound. Sometimes a few days later and sometimes sooner.
Does anyone have any solution to this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Please clarify how you are changing the "email notification"?

I go into my bellsouth.net email, I go into email settings, I touch notifications, I than touch on select ringtone, than I choose my ringtone and touch ok.

Is it a custom ringtone or stock? If custom did you create a "Media" folder >Audio>Notifications?

 

[andonakis]

It's custom. So create a "media" folder than an "audio" folder than "notification" and than put them all in the notification folder?

Yes, that's how mine is setup and it works perfectly. I have all my Blackberry notifications (imported) in there and they all show up.

On your X, go to Settings > Sounds > Notification ringtone > pick one (you can add to your available selections as per above)

Then, Settings > Sounds > Volume > Notification (set to whatever level you want)

This should take care of your issue.

Thanks. I will try this and see if this works.

I don't see where this would take care of the problem I'm having. The notification I set for my email mysteriously disappears and sets itself to the droid sound. Sometimes after a few days and sometimes after a few hours.

So, you're not gonna try it?...

If you are rooted, copy ringers to System / Media / Audio / Ringtones with Root Explorer and reboot resolve issue and then set ringer through email notification settings option,

My favorite feature is DRRRRROIDDDDDD. Specially in movie theatres. Best sound to come out since sliced bread.
