Personalized txt message alerts based on who is sending it?

Is there anyway on the Iphone to set different text message alerts based on who is sending the text? I am a sysadmin and currently I have our servers sending txt message alerts to my corp phone. I'd like set it to send to my iphone with the caveat of giving a different alert sound then other text messages sent by other people.
I just got my iphone yesterday, so please forgive me if there is an easy solution.

In short, no. You can change ring tones for various people however; no individual group alerts.

  • Txt message notification

    a cross between question/comment/complaint...
    on my alias 2 i was able to assign a ringtone to all txt messages
    Q.  why can't this be done on my new Samsung Galaxy Note ll
    under the message setting I can select notification setting with a ck mark and under ringtones I can select a tone.  
    But your stuck with the default tones that are preloaded into the phone and you can not download new tones or
    assign ringtones that you have dl and purchased for txt message alert or notifications.
    Which i find really crappy because now I am not getting my txt messages in a time manner. 
    really sucks!!
    I want to be able to assign a ringtone that is more of my preference instead of what verizon or the maker of the phone thinks I want!
    any other thoughts / comments 

    How familiar are you with android phones?
    You can use a custom notification tone for all your text messages. If you are wanting control over individual contacts for their text messages, you need a third party app.
    To get custom notification tones, you have to copy your ringtones to the "notifications" folder in the phone internal storage space. The OS will likely have already created the folder. You can also put it on the external SD card, but works better in the internal memory. To copy the files to this folder, you can use a file explorer app or connect the phone to a computer and use the computer's file manager to copy and paste the files.

  • TXT MSG Alert ringtone too low....Pls Help

    Hi
    I recieved HTC trophy today and all my excitement was vanished when I found that  the Alerts available on phone for text messages & Emails are too low.
    I  manage a Data Center and our Monitoring servers in Data center sends txt messages when anything goes wrong in Data Center.
    With HTC trophy the  alert ring tones are merely chimes and can hardly wake me up if any APP/Server goes down in DataCenter.
    Is there any option available on Trophy to add ringtones for Alerts or use other ringtones already on the phone as TXT message alert?
    This issue is a deal breaker for me. and any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi ifi71:
    It sounds like text messaging is an important feature to you, and you need it to be loud. If the native tones don't seem to work for you, you can download a ringtone management program from the Marketplace. There are several free ones to choose from. Once you get a better alert downloaded, just change the sound setting to ring with that new tone.
    I hope that helps.

    It appears that I have provided incorrect information. The assumption that you can do this on Windows Mobile phones was incorrect. I had one in-hand and assumed that alerts could be downloaded like ringtones, but according to bc3tech , it's not possible. This is not customizable like on all other operating systems. If this is a deal breaker for you, perhaps another device would suit you best.

  • Why am I getting two different conversations when the same person txts me and sends me an I message? I thought they should be in the same conversation?

    Why am I getting two different conversations when the same person txts me and sends me an I message? I thought they should be in the same conversation?

    I'm experiencing something similar. My conversations are kept together but if the screen is opened to a conversation and I receive a text from that person it doesn't show up on the screen. The message alert in the upper corner indicates a new text but I have to back out of the screen and go back in to read it.

  • Issue while creating Component Based Message Alerting in PI 7.31 Dual Stack

    Hi,
    We tried to implement Component Based Message Alerting following the steps mentioned in the below blog.
    http://scn.sap.com/community/pi-and-soa-middleware/blog/2012/03/25/michals-pi-tips-component-based-message-alerting
    Ours is PI 7.31 dual stack. However, after setting up the job with my own user id, I am getting the below error inside the log of Jobs tab:

    Hi, 
    Now I am able to receive alert in my mailbox. But it's coming with improper content.
    I have set up the job at an interval of every 2 minutes in NWA, and in case if only 1 message fails in IE, in ideal case, I should receive only 1 message details in alert.
    However, in every 2 minutes, I am receiving junk data and the number is increasing for the particular scenario for which the alert has been created. Also the Error Category mentioned is showing improper.
    But in table SXMSALERTCONTENT I am able to view only the newly added failed entry.
    An erroneous alert email content is pasted below:
    63 messages failed for "Test_XXX" on "af.s0i.saps0i"
    Root cause: -1
    To navigate to the failed messages in the local message monitor use this link
    The first 1 messages of that data collection:

  • I can't find the new text message alerts for every person - help!

    Hi.
    As I frequently check the Apple website, I visited the iOS 4.2 download site. It said that you get custom text tones and 17 new sounds.
    So I updated to get the new things. But then I checked Settings to see the new alerts and what they sounded like. But I only found the same old Tri-tone, glass, horn, etc. There were no new ones.
    So I checked Phone, but there was no custom text message alert option.
    Am I the only one experiencing this problem? I have an 8 month old iPhone 3GS and it works great.
    I am also suspecting that it could be an iPhone 4-only deal.Which would be ridiculous because I would be really upset to see that Apple only cares about the people who cash in their hard-earned bucks on every new Apple gizmo they set eyes on.
    Please help! Thanks in advance

    I understand that it has been answered and has been said that it is for the iPhone 4 only; however, on their website it does not specify that, this is exactly what it states:
    "Messaging with text tones
    Know who’s texting without looking at your screen. Choose from 17 new alerts and assign custom tones for people in your contact list.
    iPhone only."
    If I am not mistaken, "iPhone only" includes every iPhone generation to which 4.2 can be installed in, not just the iPhone 4. If it is in case for the 4 only, then they should have specified and not made a misleading advertisement about it since every iPhone user has been waiting for new tones of any sort since the first iPhone ever came out. Making it available for only iPhone 4 users is a very fowl move from Apple since it's such a basic thing to the phone itself. They should address the issue correctly and make it available for the 3G and 3GS.
    Apple just asked for angry customers with this one and they definitely know it's not fair.

  • How to exclude synchronous interfaces from component based message alerting

    Hi Pi experts,
    We are configuiring Alerts in PI 7.3 single stack.If we have 'n'number of interfaces, and if we configured general alerts for all.How to exclude synchronous interfaces in that.Alerting is for asynchronous interfaces only.How to do that.
    Please advice on this.

    Hello,

    I would suggest you to schedule jobs like this:

    I haven't tried it but i think u can do that, since these consumers are nothing but JMS queues only so i think there will be a method to read number of alert counts.
    >>In history I saw emails generated by the standard alert consumer which only contain details for the first alert, in my case I need details especially the message id for all errorneous messages
    If ur max alert parameter is greater than 1 then u should see multiple alert text  (along with message id and other details) in ur email message.

  • Java-only, Component based message alerting - loopback to sender system

    Dear guys,
    we are using the alert framework availbale on PI 7.11 to notify the sender system if there is an alert for specific interfaces. In that case a customer function module is called giving the message id of the request message (message is sent via ABAP proxy). As a result the according entry in customer table is updated.
    The implemntation is based on the BADI ALERT_MODIFY_TEXT and uses the standard function module ALE_BAPI_GET_UNIQUE_RECEIVER to determine the system /rfc destination to send the alert notification.
    This solution works fine so far.
    As PI 7.11 dual stack is not the latest release, we are thinking of upgrading to current PI/PO release. In this context also shift to java-only installation is contemplated which will need an alternative solution for the described alert/error notification loopback.
    Are there any possibilities analog to BADI to implement such a solution?
    What are your approaches regarding this requirement in the context of java-only?
    Any help/thoughts appreciated.
    Best regards,
    Jochen

  • Component based message alerting

    Hi,
    I am working on component bvased message alertig in SAP PI 7.4 (dual stack). As per the Michal's blog i have define everything in PI.-
    http://scn.sap.com/community/pi-and-soa-middleware/blog/2012/03/25/michals-pi-tips-component-based-message-alerting
    Also i have configured Configuration -> Infrastructure -> JAVA System Properties -> XPI Services: AF Core  -> and choose tab Services .
    Set the value of the alerting.target service property to 1.
    and alerting.isActive (value true).
    But still i am not getting mail in mail box.
    When i check the log viwer i found two logs saying:
    Job AlertConsumerJob (ID: 5fe771e0ec86100082e50000002ab43a, JMS ID: ID:1344010011108-000000008399) started on Thu, 5 Jun 2014 03:52:43:011 EDT by scheduler: c0000173a37f11e2b6ab00237d240438

    Could some body help me in this .
    Thanks,
    Anurag

    Hi Anarug,
    I am not sure whether it is solved.
    From the log entry from the AlertConsumerJob, it seems that this job is running fine,
    but it is not finding any alerts.
    That means probably, no alert events are thrown by any rule.
    So you should focus on that part first and see if you have any aggregated alerts in a job run.
    I had some strange experience with Alert Rules that did not have all Message Statuses checked.
    As soon as you uncheck any of the Message Statuses in the rule (for example any unusual adapter technology), the rule will not work.
    This is a bug in my 7.31 system and I am just trying to fix it using SAP Note 1968989.
    Please check if this Note might fit your situation.
    Anyway, try to use a DEFAULT-RULE, which you can create in the ID by checking the box "create default rule" when defining a new alert rule.
    Other things to check:
    - are you using Integrated Configuration or generate at least errors in the Adapter Engine?
    For errors in the (ABAP) Integration Engine, the whole story is similar but completely different.
    Cheers, Jochen

    You can check the notification settings for message.
    Settings>Notification Center>Messages>Alert Style
    It should be on Banners or Alerts.
    Settings>Messages> Turn on Imessage and send as SMS and below that "Blocked" to check if you have any numbers block might be blocking the message.
    You can also do a hard reset by holding power and home till it restarts and release after seeing the apple logo.

  • Message Alerting for PI 7.1 with Solution Manager 7.1

    Hello together,
    i am trying to get message Alerting of the SAP PI 7.1 to the solution manager 7.1 Alert Inbox (PI Monitoring).
    I cant find a how to or something.
    The following two options are in my mind:
    1. implement in RZ20 an Monitor for PI-> create alert categories and rules -> create metrics for the pi in the solman 7.1 (system monitoring) setup to get these mtes.
    2. implement the old ccms infrastructure
    Goal: get Alerts in the Solman 7.1 PI MON Alert Inbox if some Messages as they defined in the RWB Alert Rules are not transfered.
    Get anyone some know how with this use case?
    Thanks and kind regards

    Hi Mahr,
    Solution Manager 7.1 has a functionality called Technical Monitoring, which keeps a track of all the performance based & availibility metrics of a managed system.
    It can also be used to generate email alerts to a group of intended receipients.
    I would personally recommend this over CCMS. It uses Diagnostics Agent to pull all these details from the managed system & the configuration is very easy to achieve.
    Below is the guide to configure the same -

  • Txt Msg Alert Bug

    I've noticed that when I receive over 50 txt messages from a single person the MSG alert never seems to go away.
    Like when I get 105 unread messages, I go and check the 105 messages and it seems to subtract 50 and still says I have 55 unread messages. So then I hit "Load Earlier Messages" and it still says I have the same amount of unread messages.
    I clear the messages in the chat and it still says that there are 55 unread messages. When I check my phone it shows that there are no unread messages (b/c there are no blue dots near any conversations).
    The alert seems to go away only after removing the chat log all together from the text message menu.
    If someone at Apple can look into this it would be greatly appreciated. It gets annoying because I can't archive all my messages without it showing a bunch of "unread messages" even though I read them.
    Thanks.

  • 6600i slide - volume of message alert

    I'm finding it impossible to make the message alert louder than a pin dropping - the ringtone for phone calls is lovely and loud and seems to be on the same setting as the ring tone.
    I go to settings > tones where I've got call alert as "Ringing" and the ringing volume with all the 5 bars showing (maximum)
    Is there a clever person out there who can HELP PLEASE?!!

    this phone is not very loud to start with go to a mp3 file on phone and move the volume to the max when listening to it the only other suggestin is to find a louder tone from the net

  • E65 small message alert font

    I recently purchased a nokia e65 phone. Ive noticed the message alert box is so small you dont really know that youve received a message. somehow out of luck while fidding around with it a larger box appeared at the bottom of the screen. unfortunately i somehow managed to lose this setting and it has again gone back to the very small writing in the line above the "no cal entried for today" line, for a new message received. can anyone help me who may have encountered this same problem please. ive gone through the whole manual and there is no help in relation to this. its driving me crazy, given Im so used to it on my previous phone.
    thanks

    The last name first name display for contact in the SMS inbox is completely retarded. If you enter a contact into your contact list with their entire name in the 'first name' field, then the SMS inbox will display a message from that person with first name last name. That's good.
    But if you put the contact's first name in the first name field, and their surname in the last name field, the inbox will display them in last name first name order. That's just dumb. And btw this is all with the contact list set to show first name last name.
    How can there be no setting to change this? So annoying.
