Help Can I get different "sounds" when.....

[jgirvine]

Just got the Optimus S from Sprint. Coming from a BB Tour. On the BB, I had certain people have different "sounds" so I knew if I received a text from my daughter, or son, or my boss. Also a different sound if they sent an email, so I knew if I wanted to check the phone right then or wait. I have not been able to figure out how to do that on this phone. I finally got the sounds changed for my different email accounts, but, not individual emails or texts....anyone done this?
Thanks

Yeah unfortunately on Android OS you can only customize a ringtone for different people. You cannot make a different sound for people when they text or email you. Kind of a bummer. There may however be an app that will allow it, but I havent found any yet.

Handcent and Chomp SMS are two that come to mind. Both free btw.

Sis has handsend loves it. deffently need to have diff sounds for each feature , not tied to One, why I am moving from the Moment to the OS for reasons other than that.
