[Q] Person specific notifications for text and email?

[caymancouple]

Anyone know an app or a way to make the Optimus play specific sounds when I get a text or an email from a specific person? Like the specific phone ringers, I need one to know when it is the boss texting or emailing so I stop what I am doing and check.
Thanks

1. Go o Contacts.
2. Tap the name of a contact you want to edit
3. Press menu key> Options.
4. Tap Ringtone and tap a ringtone to select it.
Have you tried this?

yep, works for a phone call, but not email or text.

Perhaps try a 3rd party solution like Handcent. for text at least.

Handcent does work on a per contact basis. I think you'll need to have send that person a text at some point, but when you click on that contact, you can click the setup button in the upper right to adjust notification settings for that contact.

I've never seen anything to do that for email but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
