    Sorry for asking what is probably obvious but I have worked all day to learn as much as I can on my new BB 8130 but I have yet to figure how to assign specific ringtones/sounds to SMS for different people. So far I do not even know how to change the default sound for incoming text messages. I have looked in the user guide and search around. Please help.

    I agree- I can't find anything on this either.

    edit: found it.

    Well I now know how to change the default tone for text and all others. You go to profile>adv> hit menu and create new profile and then can set all sounds as wanted. Setting a sound for an individual text I still can not find and it may not be available. Hope this helps. Just keep playing and you find everything.

    I'm in the same boat. Just got my 8130 today and I figured out how to set tones for an individual contact. But I would like to know how to set the default SMS text message tone to a different one than what came defaulted. I'm not sure if that makes sense...but I basically want a different tone for all others besides the one contact I've made different so far.....?

    So I've been looking at all the posts about setting different tones for SMS messages from different people.

    I did this: Applications> Profiles> scroll to very bottom(Advanced...)>Select the Profile you want to edit.>SMS Text

    However, when I get to the profile(s) I don't have the SMS option. The only thing it shows is that I have a different ring tone set up. I've hit menu and it doesn't show SMS either..help?

    Thanks..A
