About notifications and sound profiles
Sound profiles define how your BlackBerry® device notifies you of calendar and task reminders, and incoming messages, calls, and browser
content. Your device has seven preloaded sound profiles: Loud, Medium, Silent, Vibrate Only, Normal, Phone Calls Only, and All Alerts
Off.
You can create custom sound profiles so you can set different notification options for different items, set ring tones, or set the volume for
notification. If you set notification volume to Escalating, the notification volume gradually increases.
You can also assign ring tones and notifications to specific contacts in your contact list so that phone calls and messages from the contact
are unique.
