Alerts for Text messages.

I have sounds imported from my last phone to use on my new Droid Incredible.  I have certain sounds I want to use for text message alerts from my last phone. How can I get them set or am I stuck with just the supplied ones that came with the phone.  I know how to set tones for contacts, but cant figure out how to do it for text messages.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Create the following folders in your sd card.  Move or copy your ringtones to the proper folder and they will show up automatically on the right list.
\media\audio\ringtones
\media\audio\notifications
\media\audio\alarms

    There are two ways.
    1. Turn up the volume to max with the buttons on the side of the phone.

    Good luck.

  • N95 Audible alert for Texts / Voicemail Recieved

    Hi All,
    Sorry if its already been asked but.....Is it possible for me to get my N95 to give me an audible alert ( preferably repeating ) for a text message being recieved and also for a voicemail being recieved ?.
    From my searching I am thinking this is not possible.....please prove me wrong.
    I am not at all techie so please if there is a way to do this some very basic / clear instructions on how to please.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hiya,
    Audible alerts are available for text messages, and are available in the profiles:
    Menu - Tools - Profiles - Select a profile - Options - Personalise - Message Alert Tone
    Voicemail notifications are network dependant - I believe Orange flash an icon on the screen, where o2 sends a text and/or call from the voicemail service...
    There should be options for that when you dial the voicemail though

  • My iphone 4s voice dictation for text messages is not consistently working. Sometimes it works, other times after the dictation it just gives me a blank space. Anyone else having this problem?

    My iphone 4s voice dictiation for text messages is not consistently working. I've had the phone since Thanksgiving and it always worked perfectly, but the last few weeks it's been hit or miss. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Anyone else having this problem? I tried the hard reset but that hasn't fixed it.

    I have the same problem since updating to IOS 8.3. Any app to which I want to send a new link via IMessage does not allow me to select a contact to send the IMessage to. Using a pre-existing thread does not have same problem.

  • I have a Galaxy SIII and I stopped receiving visual notification for text messages.  How do I correct it?

    I have a Galaxy SIII and recently stopped receiving visual notification for text messages.  How do I correct it?

        Hmmm that's strange TopDiver. Let's get to the bottom of this. Have you checked the notification settings on the device? To verify the notification setting on the device click on menu>settings>sound>notification sound, then test device notifications.

  • Message settings option for text messages is not c...

    I am using  N73 phone and here i cant go to the message settings option for text messages. actually i want to change my message center.
    Message > Options > Settings > Text Message 
    When i tried to follow above steps it finally ends up with the Main menu. But previously it works fine. I want to know there whether there is another way to set it or i need to go for a phone software installation.

    The settings can also the sent directly to your phone as an auto install sms from your network. Contact your network and request they send you the sms.

  • "ringtone" for text messages

    Is it possible to set a different "ringtone" for text messages? I enjoy being able to set ringtones for calls so I know who is trying to reach me. It would be great if this can be done for text messages too.

  • Alerts for Text

    Hi,
    I am new to Dashboards. i want to give alerts for Text . i can't find it .can you please help me out.
    what exactly ,i am looking i have created a dashboard with details " Job name " and " Job status" . so job status is completed or not completed.
    i have to show green color when it is showing completed and red color for not completed. how to give alerts for this Text. i found alerts is only for numbers .
    thank you and have a nice week end

    Hi Jason,
    As you said there is no alert available for Text, but you can write a logic in excel to achieve this.
    Take the color code and write a logic of if(workcompleted,then = #00FF00(Green), or #FF0000(red)) then map them into the text color from the excel. For better understanding i have create a sample file on this, change the .txt extension to .xlf and preview it.
    Hope this helps!!! revert for any clarifications

  • My phone won't show notifications on my home screen or lock screen for text messages

    My phone won't show notifications for text messages on my lock screen or my home screen, even thought both are turned on under the settings. Once I go into the messaging app, they will show up as new but not anywhere else. I get notifications for everything else except text messages.

    Messages should work with the email address that you use for your Apple ID. You have to be signed into that email address in order for any other email address that you have added to work.
    You should add your iPhone number to your Apple ID on the iPad, and then select that as the contact address at which you can be reached and all of the messages between the phone and the iPad will sync again.
    iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage - Apple Support
    Phone number missing on iPad or iPod touch
    If your phone number isn't listed on an iPod touch or iPad, follow these steps:
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Verify that you're using the same Apple ID that you're using on your iPhone.
    On your iPad or iPod touch, sign out of your Apple ID in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign in to your Apple ID with FaceTime and iMessage.
    If your phone number still isn't listed, follow these steps:
    Sign out of your Apple ID on all iOS devices, including your iPhone, in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign in to your Apple ID on your iPhone.
    When activation is complete, your Apple ID and all verified email addresses should be visible in Settings > Messages > Receive At and Settings > FaceTime.
    Sign in to your Apple ID on your other iOS devices.
