Unable to change any type of ringtone or notification.

After 15+ years, we've made a big change: Android Forums is now Early Bird Club. Learn more here.
To set a general notification sound for all apps that raise notifications go into Settings | Sounds | Default Notification Sound and choose a tone. This will be the default sound played if you haven't chosen an app specific tone. Note that you can also set all the default to a silent tone as well.
To set a different notification for specific apps like messaging, go inth the app, choose settings | notifications |sounds and choose a tone. This will override the default set above. It is pretty much the same for all apps. For most email apps, it is a bit differeny, go into the email app, choose Settings | [your email address] | Inbox Sound | Sound.
Another tool I like to use for controlling notifications (both led notifications and tones) is Light Flow (free / paid in Play store).
If you are looking for a good place to find lots of ringtones and notification sounds, I use Zedge (play link below) which is free in the market.
Light Flow:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rageconsulting.android.lightflow
Zedge: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.zedge.android
I hope this gets you started.
