is it possible to change your alarm tone?
when you set the alarm there should be a ringtone option where you can choose the alarm tone. Or there's 3rd party software like G-alarm which allows you to choose music files for the alarm and gives you more control over the operation of it all.
how do I make a ringtone into an alarm? Do I need a file manager?
Thanks
UPDATE: Dosey twat...three different ways to change alarm and I don't notice the most blatant way...on the alarm itself it gives you the option to select from ringtone! Can now use my music tunes I edited using ringdroid...very nice app
im trying to change the notification tone on my i9000. I have copied the .ogg file i want from my i9300 and placed it in two places on my i9000 internal sd card - /mnt/sdcard/DCIM/Music and also /mnt/sdcard/Bluetooth, but when i open the file, and click 'Set As' it only lets me set it as the phone ringtone, caller ringtone or alarm tone, and not the notification tone?
when i go to my settings, then soud settings, then notification tone, it doesnt let me choose a folder to select the notification sound from, and just the standard i9000 ones.
how can i set a custom audio file as the default notification tone for all apps?
try putting the file in system/app/media/audio/notification and then the permission...then reboot and try...

There is an app called zedge (free) that you can download all your favorite ringtones and backgrounds from then just simply choose them from the sound section of your settings section.

Try root explorer or another app with permission and copy the file to system/media/audio/ringtones then set permision to rw-r--r--,save it and then go to setting and choose your ringtone.
Is it possible to add more ringtones to the stock alarm clock?
Original Moto X on AT&T running stock 4.4.4 firmware:
I've started using my phone as my alarm clock and I'd like a bigger selection of ringtones. I've placed a bunch of .ogg files in both the /Ringtones and the /Notifications folders. They can be selected when choosing the phone ringtone, but I still only have a half dozen stock sounds in the Alarm Clock selection.
Using a third party alarm clock, I can select all the ring tones I put on.
I know I can just use the third party app, but I'd rather stick with the stock app since it works well with daydream.

Yup, it's possible. Download ES explorer or an equivalent file manager.
Now , when you try and set the ring tone for your alarm clock, it will prompt you to choose which application you want to "Complete action with"
Using media storage will let you set the stock ringtones. Using your file manager, you can navigate to the song of your choice and set it .
If the prompt for "complete action with" does not show up, in the "all" section of your applications list , clear the defaults in the "media storage" application.
When I try to pick ringtones or alarm I'm not getting an option to pick anything. It's totally empty!
Can't pick ringtones, notification or alarm.
