Was able to have a different notification for each email account before but now only has oem notifications. Ringtones has an add button but only for music in your library.

I cant get my default notification sound to change - I can change the gmail new email sound to change from within the gmail settings but for pop email, sms etc the sound doesn't change no matter which sound I pick?
Am I doing something wrong?
Tks
Have a look at the guide below.
http://www.htc.com/uk/help/htc-one-x/
Personalizing with sound sets
Each sound set gives you a different combination of sounds for your ringtone and notifications such as incoming messages, email, calendar event reminders, and more. By switching between sound sets, you can instantly make HTC One X ring or alert you with fun sounds when you're out with friends or change to subtle sounds while you're at work.
Creating a sound set
Slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap > Personalize.
On the Sound tab, tap Sound set.
On the Sound sets screen, tap .
Enter a new sound set name, and then tap Done.
The newly created sound set is then added to the list of sound sets. You can assign different tones to the sound set to your preference.
Changing your ringtone, notifications, and sounds
Slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap > Personalize.
On the Sound tab, tap Sound set.
Choose a sound set you want to customize, or create a new one, and then tap Apply.
Change the ringtone, notification sound, and alarm from the Personalize screen.
HTC One X automatically saves your choices to the current sound set.
Deleting sound sets
Slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap > Personalize.
On the Sound tab, tap Sound set.
Tap .
Select one or more sound sets you want to delete.
Tap Delete.

I think the poster meant that regardless of which sound you set as notification sound, it will still use the default notification sound. Just to clarify, even though it wasn't necessary as I've owned an htc android phone before, I did read the guide as i was stumped too. I can select any custom sound for notifications, it just doesn't use it. It's different for email notifications though, that will use the sound I set without problems... Anyone have a fix? It was like this since it first came out of the box.

Happened to me on an earlier release of leedroids rom I just reinstalled and it fixed it
If on stock all you can do it factory reset or run a RUU.

Like topic. How do I change the email (hotmail) notification sound? I can't seam to find it in the settings in the email app. Though I can easily change the sound in the Gmail map, and other apps.
And the sound in the Email app is not the same as the phones default notifications sound.
Seriously? no one? :/
Settings, Personalize, Sound (at bottom of screen), Notification sounds, Email
Volume is Settings, Sound, Volumes
Big thanks, would never have found it
I hope there's an answer to this...
In Gingerbread I had my PhoneCall and SMS notification sound different from Email notifications / Facebook.
My basic set up was:
Phone - Ring Always
SMS - Sound Always (and Buzz)
Email - Buzz - no sound
Facebook - nothing.This way I more or less didn't need to change my settings every (except in meetings when I'd sometimes slide it to silent (buzz only)
Maybe I'm going missing something obvious (I hope I am) but ICS seems to have broken this functionality. I couldn't find any notification setting specific to GMail, and I can't find any way of separating out SMS and Email notifications (Without 3rd party apps).
Can I do this in ICS?
If not, Google have quietly been working evil...
You might need to set the notifications in the individual apps. For me, it's only ever had sms and ringtone options in the standard settings

Thanks, That was my first thought... I understand that this was google's rationale for the change that they made in ICS - from the core OS point of view, a notification is a notification (whatever generates it), and its up to the individual app to allow you to configure specific sounds. So far so good (if tedious compared to gingerbread). BUT... the Gmail app doesn't allow you to configure notifications. Perhaps the answer is to try a different email app, and configure it to play a silent MP3 file.
I use tasker to create custom notifications for each app.
Contacts have customised sms tones and certain apps will only vibrate once.
I've also used it to lower volumes in games automatically and enable rotation only in gallery
Any tricks or suggestion to silence the group notification in WhatsApp rather than muting... I already tried to set silence ring tone but that didn't work..

Why don't you ask about it in WhatsApp forum?
Go to any Chat and tap on options menu, and there is option called Mute just tap on it and it's done✓ ?
I jumped directly from Kitkat (Cyanogen OS which my old phone had and which I never updated as it was very buggy update to Lollipop and I wanted for MM which never came) to Nougat when I bought the Z2 Play. It's mostly a positive change except for the notification settings. I know it's been discussed at length how Google messed up the notification settings on Lollipop and the trend has continued in Nougat too.
So now to my issue with it. I have currently set ringtones at full volume and Notifications on silent by selecting default notification ringtone as "None" as I don't want to hear a chime on every notification that comes through as most of my notifications are News feeds. Whenever l recieve a notification my phone vibrates so I assume there's no setting to customize Silent/Vibrate by default for all notifications and also individual app unless the app itself has implemented it in its settings like Textra and merely selecting no notification ringtone sets it to vibrate unless I go to individual app settings and set on the toggle "Show Silently". It is quite convoluted really.
Now what I want to achieve with the way my phone acts on notifications is something like this:
I want the to set a default notification ringtone and I want to set some notifications to vibrate and some to silent which I simply cannot do unless the app provides its own settings of silent/vibrate.
I want the Reminders and Events set in the Google and Calendar app to have a notification ringtone even when in default settings I have set notification ringtone to "None" but they rely on default notification settings. Some apps like Textra provide their own so is it really hard for Google's own app to do the same. This way I can set a different ringtone too than the default one. So I would like to know of a way to do so. Maybe the Motorola profile Settings can be used for this? That is why I am posting this here also.
And honestly why aren't Reminders relying on Alarm sound i.e. if alarms are allowed to make a sound Reminders should too. It is really frustrating. I missed a reminder like this today because I wasn't aware of the convoluted way Nougat handles all this.
Kitkat had the best implementation. It had a separate slider for notification sounds too.(Cyanogen OS had one).
What I think is a better implementation is allowing to set a default ringtone in Sounds settings and then in individual app's notification settings separating the vibrate part from the "Show Silently" option. This would allow me to achieve my goal of having a ringtone for some apps, vibrate for some and silent for some. And it would solve my problem of having a sound when I have set a reminder in the Google app and have set default notification ringtone to "None".
The best implementation of course would be to set a default silent, vibrate or ringtone for notifications and then have granular control for each app i.e have a list of all apps and allowing to choose from Silent, Vibrate or ringtone for each app which would override the default.
Also why not allow to change the default sound that the volume rockers control. In Google's own YouTube app volume rockers change the notification volume and not the media volume which is again very frustrating.
Sorry for the long post and rant. I really wish Google fixes this but I doubt it.
Many apps have individual notification settings.

True many not all and especially not the Google app and calendar app to which I add reminder and Events. And I cannot set a default notification ringtone as the news feeds apps I use don't have a setting to set them on vibrate. So I am kind of stuck there.

There are other calendar apps and you can silence the Google calendar. I use DigiCal, for the dark theme.
I don't know what kind of apps exist for news feeds, but if you get and android wear watch you can totally silence the phone and select which apps vibrate your wrist.

Thanks for the app suggestion. Does it support adding Reminders through Google Assistant?

If you mean creating new events via voice, yes.
