I have been trying to copy, paste and work out where to put files so that they can play as an alarm tone. As of yet i have not worked it out, if there is anyone who knows please tell me.
And dont say read the manual because its not in there!
Thanks,
Kapa
You can't. You have to use a third party alarms program to use an MP3 as an alarm. I used PocketMax AlarmToday and it worked pretty well.
The stock alarms from HTC Home only can use WAV files, and they must be in the Windows directory.
Otherwise, yes you need to use a 3rd party alarm app.

I suggest you just trim your own files on your computer, convert to WAV and put the file in the directory the forum told you to

Just to clarify. The file needs to go in /windows/ NOT /windows/rings.
Yes, you have to put it on the windows folder in wma format and after you can see it wen you go to NOTIFICATION. I do that with new message and new email. Work's fine. For ringtones work's too.

This has been asked and answered a million times, please search and you would have found it.
The easiest place to put all sounds so they can be used as either ringer, email notifications, sms/mms is to go to file explorer, my device, application data, then sounds. Place them in there. If you want to use a particular sound for an alarm then place those sounds in your windows folder.
hey guys.
Just a simple request to those who you have the time to do so.
I recently installed Gtrab's W4X WM6.5 Cooked Rom but didn't realise it had a lot of the ringtones included with the xperia missing.
I've searched the forums and found the odd file containing ringtones taken from handsets but they are different tones.
Could you please copy and zip all the ringtones from the Windows folder from a default Xperia rom and upload it to the internet for me please
Cheers,
Hyped
I need them too. can somebody please post them?
Thank you
Press me softly....
Thank you for your help, however, unfortunately, these are not the ringtones I need.
I'm not sure where they're saved but there are some ringtones called like Alarm1, Alarm2, Alarm3 and such. And it's in this location I need the ringtones. I think they are scattered throughout the Windows folder admist the system files.
So, could you possible collect and zip these please

Big thanks, but, now, the next step...I think, we need to open the registry somehow, to insert the ring tone we really crave for it, and I think it must be a post somewhere, but, where....

Extract the rar file on your computer, connect device via active sync, once syncing click "explore" and your my documents folder should be visible, move the extracted mp3 ringtones to this folder. Hope that helps
Thx
But does anybody have also the ringtones for sms ?
There is one ringtone, i really miss on the ROM´s, but i do not remember the name
Its gonna be difficult if you don't have the name. I used dreamland on the stock rom.
the ringtones used by the sms tone are stored in the windows root folder, can u upload them ?

I flashed energy rom so i don't have the stock ones at hand
There is a thread or two around here somewhere with a link to all the OEM ringtones / sounds etc. I'm not sure what it was titled though.
It was a rar file and nearly 38mB in size.
:edit Found it. I used the top secret 'Search' button. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=526164
