if you are using SMS popup, you need to switch off SMS notification in the message settings.
Messages > Menu > Settings > Notifications
sms tones
thanks for that

many many thanks

Hello,
Is there a way of having a different tone for a new SMS and a different tone for a new Email recieved?
At the moment, all notifications sound the same, so you cannot distiguish between new email, sms etc, without looking at the phone.
Cheers,
Go to the relevant app e.g. gmail and then click menu and then change the notification sound to whatever you want...
You can set the sms sound in the sms settings, not for emails though so I guess emails use the default notification sound.
In Gmail menu > more > select ringtone
and you can change what appears in the list by creating folders for the notifications, then moving the sounds there
Problem with the phone is you can't have different tones for different people which is annoying.
You can have different ringtones for different contacts....
okay so under setting - notification sounds - you can only set your default notifications sounds which i guess is one sound for all type of notifications, emailes txt and so forth. I of course want different sounds for individual notifications. When i go to my email and change the notification sound of my email under its own settings it keeps reverting back to the default sound under the phone settings. Any way to by pass this? please help
A few months ago I moved from Windows Mobile 6.5 to Android. A feature I miss a bunch is the ability to have my scheduled tasks alert me. Using Android the task alert is the text message alert. I have been unable to find a way to make my tasks have a separate alert. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Thanks!
Are you referring to the notification ringtones? because you can change that through the settings in the calander app to make it something different than the default.

yes that is what I am referring to... however if I change the notification ring tone it changes the text message ring tone.
Tasks
I have all my schedules for work in my phone set up in my calander, since i also came from a Windows phone (Q9C) i was using outlook for all my apts. THere is a exchange program u can use thru google that will link the 2 and bring all your tasks into your new calander on your phone. U can then set each event to alert u a set time before, just like in WINM0b. I set mine up to alert me 1 hour before i work and if the phone is on silent, theres a icon on top left screen telling me theres a event. u can also set up sounds. I hope this helps, and hope the info helps u. I am running Dk28 Froyo and there are some differences, so if some of this makes no sense, thats prob the reason. the program thru google is google calander. seach for it, it works

When you change it through the calendar app, it only effects notifications from that app, the default notification ringtone will remain the same. Also, you can specify a specific notification ringtone through the messaging app, and gmail as well, and have them all be something different than the default notification ringtone that is set through the main settings->sound menu.
Open up the calendar app, hit the menu button, select settings, then change the ringtone for that app.
All my appointments are through google calender. I am running Froyo (Bonsai MOD). The one hour thing is what I have as well... the issue I am having is my text msg alert seems like it has to be the same as the task alert. I liked having my task alert long(like a ring tone) and I like having a short text msg alert.

wow... just wow. I really feel like a noob. It was so simple. Thanks!
You can also DL tone picker from the market. It will give you a few more selections when trying to change notification tones, including the use of music found on your SD card. Just a lil FYI if you're not too big on system tones only.

Thanks for the heads up however "Select music" is installed by default and will let you do the music from your SD card thing(all my ring tones are there)
You can also just create a directory on your sd card and place your audio files there. On your sd card, create a directory with folders as such
sdcard
|-media
--|-audio
----|-alarms
------|-random.mp3
------|-random.ogg
----|-notifications
------|-another.mp3
------|-another.aac
----|-ringtones
------|-you_get_the_picture.mp3
------|-insert_audio_file_here.wav
