Larry Brown #43 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Ok, I'm reasonably technologically inclined, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to change the ringer on my cell phone for text messages I receive. I can change the ringer for phone calls, the alarm clock, etc., but when I go to "Setup" there seems to be no option for changing the annoying howl I get everytime I get a text. I have a Samsung brand phone with Verizon service. Can anyone help me?? Thanks in advance!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when I go to Sounds -> Ringer Type, my options are "Calls" and "Alarm," neither of which relates to texts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
