Yes just look in settings under sound. Also when you long press on home screen.

On your phone to go: Menu, Settings, Personalize (or hit the Personalize button from the home screen).
At the bottom, where it says "Personalize Sound", hit "Notification Sound"
On this menu you can set the sounds for the following notifications:
Default Notification
Message
Calendar
Email
Hope that helps.

SMS and Gmail Alert Notifications (Sounds)

Am new to Android and can't work out how to turn off sound notifications for emails yet retain them for SMS text messages?
I get a lot of emails that aren't urgent (an can read in my own time) but would like to still know immediately when a text comes in...
Cheers
Yeah go into e-mails and then press menu then go to more then settings it's in there. Notification settings, sounds OFF.
In the email applications you can set the ringtone for email notifications to silent? Presumably that allows you to keep SMS notification sounds.
The way i described allows to keep sms sounds.

SMS notification

Is there a way to disable the SMS/MMS icon that appears in my notifications? I believe it's the default one because I have uninstalled all third party applications.
Even when I click on it and read any new messages, it does not disappear unless I click "clear" in the notifications drop-down.

Go into your stock messaging app. Find settings by pressing menu! Scroll to received Notifications. disable it now.... There you go, the little message icon shouldnt appear.

Facebook notifications

Is anyone else experiencing issues with push notifications on our device i have never had one on stock or cyan has anyone got it to work???
Notifications show up on my lock screen but no alert or sound to tell me that they have arrived?
Go to the main screen where you can access your news feeds,profile,friends,chat,messages etc and press the menu button to get into settings.
Once there turn on anything you want to be alerted for and set a ringtone for it.

are you sure you click on a ringtone not "silent" one? and check your ringtone noise in the sound settings in the actuall settings app.

Meessages app notification sound

I can't find option to set separate notification sound in messages app settings. It can be done in general sound settings but causes setting the same sound to all notifications.
Open your message app
Next tap on the person message you want to customize the notification sound
Next tap on the 3 dots on the top right corner and select custom notification and tap one more time to enter the customized field
There look for sound
Thats it
Hope this helps

I think he means he wants a different notification sound for messages , Telegram Hangouts, WhatsApp etc. Atm its the same notification sound for all messaging style apps with no way to change it
My WhatsApp ringer is different than the phone. I use textra so all my contacts that i frequently message have different sounds and icons (this is due to the app).
I dont use hangouts so cant comment on that...

@david1350,
With the stock Samsung Message app the only way to disable AOD and lockscreen wake up is:
-open messages
-tap 3 dots menu (top right corner)
-select settings
-select notifications
-select New messages
-scroll down an select lock screen
-select "Do not show notifications" instead of "hide content"
Be forewarned, though. The downside of this is that you will receive no new message notification on your lockscreen.
There must be an other setting. Mine don't behave like this with notifications and edge lightning on, and AOD off.

@Nastrahl,
Interesting. Thanks. Any ideas on what settings might impact this?
