Messages Notification and Default Notification - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Is there a way to have a different Messages notification tone than the default notification tone?
Many thanks!

Same question! I can't even change sound notifications from gmail and google allo?

Same for Twitter lol

Having the same .. would like to have different sound notifications in gmail and messages. I seem to be able to do it in WhatsApp, but everywhere else it use system default sound

It is extremely extremely annoying. To solve this, I am using Textra instead of stock messages. You might like it and it has , of course, the option of changing the sound. I wouldnt even consider that a 2018 flagship doesnt have that option...

You can change the notification sounds in Gmail. I have three email accounts setup in the Gmail app.
Goto:-
- Gmail settings
- General settings
- Manage notifications
- Click the text area that says 'Normal: Allow these notifications to make sounds' (not the button)
- Sound

Thanks, havent found that before

Email Notifications...

Anyone help ????
I have set my Hero Email app so that when I get and email, it informs me, and I can open, and read it, This is when I set the pop and smtp settings. But I also get another notification icon, which only lets me read the email, not reply to it, so I get two notifications.....
I only want the one from the email app, pop account, how do I cancel the other notification ????
Thanks all
Ian
That's a notification from the Gmail app.
It seems to me that either you're picking up your Gmail via POP in the Email app, or you use something other than Gmail for your email, but have set up a Gmail account which is also picking up your email via POP.
In either case, if you want to switch of notifications from Gmail, go into the Gmail app and then "Menu"->"Settings" and untick "Email Notifications" which will switch of the Gmail notification.

Thanks Dave,, thats just what I was hoping someone would say....

Hey Ian, I don't mean to hijack your thread, but my question is applicable here.
I am using the Gmail notification widget from the Market. When I get an email, the widget reflects the number of unread items. So, I no longer have a need for the notification in the taskbar. Problem is, there seems to be no way to disable the taskbar notification without disabling the sound and vibrate as well! (where is my "banging head against the wall" smilie?)
Anyone know how to resolve this. Handcent is the same way. Disable the taskbar notification and you lose your sound notification as well.

Issue with double notification sound...

I get a double notification sound every time i get a text message. The first sound is the one i chose in handcent. The second sound occures 1 second after the first, and its the default notification sound("look at me").
Ive tried unchecking everything in the default messaging app. Ive tried going into settings>sound& display> notification ringtone> silent. Restarting phone after setting these things. And still no fix. I still get the double notification sounds. The 1st i want. The second default sound doesnt go away.
Before I made this thread i did research around the web about this and tried every suggestion. I still have the problem.
Any other suggestions?
also: my phone is not rooted
Wow. Never heard of that... I really don't know what to say.
Root.
Go to messaging app, settings, then just UNCHECK notifications. That should be it. I've had tons of Android phones and use all kinds of 3rd party SMS app, and have no issues.
Make sure you don't have some other SMS app or message notification app also running giving notifications. (missed call, sms popup, chompsms, trackball alert, sms count widget, etc..)

Yeah "nothing" is checked in the default messaging app.
I tried to install chomp to see if it was handcent and it did it with chomp too.
Edit: I found the issue!
Thanks for suggesting about looking for any app that had anything to do with messaging or ringer tones. It was a rarely used app i have called "ringo pro"
I changed the appropriate settings and now everything is fine.
Thank you

Facebook notification sound

I know there were a lot of threads about not being able to change the notification sound in different apps... but none was talking about FB.
(BTW email notifications work although finding where to change it was a pain in the ...)
It drive me bananas since I see that in the app the push notification sound is the 'Facebook' tune one but on every notification I get the default phone notification sound...
Anyone solved it?

How to disable Facebook messenger sound?

Hello,
All my messengers(whatsapp, hangouts, etc) allow me to change message sound to vibrate.
I cannot do this with Facebook messenger, for some reason. I think its
messenger/settings/notifications and sounds/manage notifications/chats and calls/sound - change to silent
I think it's that, but it won't save permanently those preferences
Any ideas how to completely disable the sound notifications in Facebook messenger? I prefer just to switch it to vibrate.
Hi
Try going to Messenger app info and select notifications and then change notification sound to silent.
That may help but i am not sure because i rarely use messenger.

Question text messages

i'm ok with being an idiot, but i can't seem to figure out how to get my incoming texts to give me a buzz on either the phone or samsung watch.
allow all notifications
they're all allowed, google messages thing. i might have to reinstall i guess. i see the notification on my screen and watch, but definitely don't get a buzz or a blip sound
oh, maybe because i have messages for web syncd and open
nope
Do you get other notification sounds?
yes, i'd hate reinstall it....but it might be about that time
Do you use the default Google message app?
Did you set a custom notification sound for text messages?
solved
