custom text tones with handcent?

[issues636]

when you click "Notification Settings" in that dropdown menu and then settings screen opens, take a look at the top, right under your Notifications bar. between your Notifications bar and the "Notification Settings" header, you should see "Name Name(###-###-####)". that's the person you're changing the notification for.

Oh ok lol thank you, I didn't notice that

lol np. it's small, easy to miss, and the settings screen looks exactly like the regular settings screen, i thought the same thing at first too. but then i noticed that at the top.

I'm glad you guys actually got it to work, I knew that's what you needed. It is really cool that you can actually do that. I have so many ringtones, but I know exactly who is texting me. I'm glad I could help.

You don't need to download any separate app to do this.

Handcent could make this a lot clearer, but you can do it inside of Handcent and Handcent alone.

Inside a thread, on the upper right of the screen, you will see an icon that's supposed to be 'contact options.' It's a person silhouette with a gear wheel. These are the options that are specific to that person. Here is where you can set different ringtones and LED colors for a text from that person only.

Im having a weird issue with handset sms. Ive got the custom notifications to work before but now it keeps playing the default ringtone for messages. Ive checked the settings and it shows my ringtone as the one it should be playing but nothing. It just keeps playing the default ringtone. Before it didnt even play anything so I redownloaded it and it showed 2 handset apps in my app drawer. What the...?? So I wiped and cleared the phone 3 times each but the handset app is still acting weird. Before any of this happened my sd card got damaged for a second time. I just hooked up my sd card to my computer and copied all the files off of the sd card and recopied them after I let my phone reformat the sd card. Could that have caused and issue with handset and how it plays it's ringtones? Any help would be appreciated.
