Not possible, I'm afraid, nor can you change the tone. I'm also hoping someday SE "fixes" that in a firmware release.

If I have the phone in my pocket, I don't hear the SMS tone, either. Check www.sonyericsson.com for the contact email address, I forget what it is offhand. I did email them about undating my T300 (it's a T-Mobile and, big news flash here, several revisions behind) and their reply was "Unfortunately, we do not have a local service center that I could refer you to. Also we normally do not recommend doing a software upgrade unless you are experiencing problems with the unit.". C'est la vie. It does puzzle me why you can apply a polyphonic ring tone to a call but you can't even change the volume of the one tone provided for SMS. Design by committee, I suppose.

My tone seemed to get louder when I got upgraded to the latest firmware (R7). It changed from the standard tone to a different louder one.
