User Guide Notes: The Volume option only sets how loud or quiet the tune plays when you listen to it in the list. To change the volume for your notification, edit the profile. You can only delete downloaded ring tones. About custom notification You can create exceptions to notification profiles to receive different notification for incoming messages and phone calls from specific contacts. For example, you can create a profile exception that uses the Loud profile when you receive messages and phone calls from specific contacts, regardless of the active profile. Profile exceptions are applied based on the order in which they appear. If you create multiple profile exceptions that include the same contact, you must decide which one to apply first by placing that profile exception higher in the list. The BlackBerry® device has a preset profile exception for important calls. You can add contacts to this profile exception, or you can delete it. Create profile exceptions 1.
