    Is there a way to use a specific new sound effect for email settings? It looks initially like the notification sound covers everything. Twidroid handles my twitter sound effect, but I'd like a unique sound for facebook messages, and also for emails, and generic system notifications.

    Root Have we gotten rooted deodexed ota yet?
