    Default Assign SMS tones to specific contacts

    I have searched all over the forums for this answer and i still cant get it. what i want to do is a simple concept and im sure someone else has the same idea. i want to take a custom SMS tone and assign it to a contact....then take another one and assign it to a different contact. so when contact A sends me a text message it plays sound A but when contact B sends me a text message it plays Sound B. its a simple concept yet everyone keeps talking about creating custom sms tones. I KNOW HOW TO DO THIS. i want to assign the custom tones to contacts. is it possible and if so how

    Hey Guys,

    Go try out Quickboard. It is an SMS replacement app. When your in a text with someone, scroll to the top of the convo and hit additional. You can assign a specific text tone to each contact.

    Good Luck!

    QuickSMS has this feature. Click additional when your looking at your text window.

    Ichwohneinloche read above it states how you can get custom sms tones , although it can b a bit buggy, i find that even when i open the message the sms tone continues playing! just a little thing that can get quite annoying!
