where are the message notification ringtones? - shengchieh - 06-18-2023
I would like to increase the volume (over 20 dB louder) when I receive a text message, but leave the phone notifcation
volume alone. I do not see how I can do this in the setting (if possible, I must be blind - please tell me how).
So now, I want to increase the ringtones for message notification. Where is it?
I already noticed
/usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/click.ogg
/usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/string.ogg
/usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/swing.ogg
/usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/hum.ogg
and increased the volume. But these files do not get used for text notification (if they can, I must be blind - please
tell me how). Instead I hear a soft buzz whenever I receive a text. Where is it? I already searched for all the wav,
mp3, ogg, au, and raw files.
Fyi, I have the 32GB community edition Pinephone which was recently discontinued. And postmarketOS v22.12 (haven't
update to newer version yet).
Thank in advanced for any help/tip.

Any tips or things to try?
1.
Are there any music files extension I should try searching for? I already tried wav, mp3, ogg, au, and raw files.
2.
Are there any "sound-making" console commands that I can "grep" for?
3.
Are there other groups (beside this forum) I can ask this question?
Thank in advanced for any help/tip.

Hi!
Now days more support is availeble from matrix group chats.
I assume you are using Phosh? Sorry if you mentioned it but I did not notice.
You can start for example here:
https://sspaeth.de/2021/03/customizing-the-librem5-ringtone/
Files should be oga or ogg
You can customize all alert tones but you have to find out what they are called.
Incoming call is "phone-incoming-call" while sms is "message-new-sms" and matrix/telegram etc. are "message-new-instant"
There is no easy way to increase one alert tone only but what you can do:
Increase the volume of your custom alert tone sound file using some audio mixer app.
Use phosh-mobile-settings and put feedback to silent for not so important apps (silent will vibrate only)

The sound files are located at /usr/share/freedesktop/stereo.
I imagine you are looking at /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/message-new-instant.oga
You can increase the volume of an .oga file using, for example.audacity. Try google
