Hey, I was wondering if it is possible to change the sound of an incoming message into an mp3 file or so? I can change it in the standard sounds but want to use my own file. Is it possible?
Of course it is ! Not easy to guess at first, but I found a way to enable this.
You basically need to copy your .mp3 file (and remember its name to locate it after in the list) in the Windows folder of your device. It's a little long to load, don't be afraid, but then just paste the mp3 file in the windows folder, nowhere else, at its root.
Finally, go to sound configuration (parameters, system...) and set your mp3 file as the default SMS tone.
Enjoy !
That didnot work for me. It works when I press the "PLAY" button when configuring it but the only way it sound when I get a SMS is if I use a .wav file on the Windows folder mp3 dont work for me on SMS althoug the work on call tunes.
convert it to .wav then
I love some of the Soundboards that people have created, but miss the ability to set some of the audio files as ring / message tones.
Instead of having to wait for the Soundboard developer to implement this, is there a way for me to extract that audio content myself and to set it as a ring message tone?
Would probably be just easier to search online for the mp3 .........
Back up your applicatiom
Extract the apk to your computer via usb
Open the apk with winrar
Find the file with all the .mp3 sounds

Hi all,
I want to use my own MP3-Files for alarm clock/ ringtone, however, I cannot select the files for these applications.
As far as I can see, there are three music-folders on the device, \MUSIC, \WINDOWS\HTCTone and \WINDOWS\Rings.
Wherever I put my MP3-files, I cannot select them in the browser of the alarm clock/ ringtone app. Are there any additional registry entries needed? Or doesn't the TD2 accept MP3s for these purposes?
Thanks in advance,
Caroline
You can place MP3 files for ringtones into My Documents / My Ringtones and files for sms notification must be in windows folder. I tried to use mp3 files for alarm clock but without avail. I think it must be wav or wma file in windows directory also.
Edit: I've tried it and it must be .wav file.

Hi, .wav file I put into windows folder and it's displayed in Ringtone menu.
On Polaris it's in
Device\Application Data\Sounds\
From there mp3s are working for SMS/MMS notifications... Reminders too...
for ringtone u can put it in storage card, must be at the main page, not inside any folder
I'm hoping someone can help me out here.
I am attempting to use custom tones for my lock and unlock sounds. However, I think I'm having a problem with converting my sound files. What's happening is my .wav file that I convert to .ogg isn't recognized by my phone.
I am renaming the file to "Unlock.ogg" and moving it to /system/media/audio/ui
Just to rule out the possibility of copying the file I was able to copy an .ogg file from my phone, in this case the rooster alarm and get it to work. Is there anything special I need to do when converting the sound file from .wav to .ogg?
Pull one of the .oog files from the phone to your computer and see what the bitrate, etc is on it. Then convert your .wav to match...No Spaces in the filename? Just a couple quick ideas. I haven't tried changing the sounds (I have them muted), those are just a couple common issues with replacing other sounds I have run into.
I need longer alert sounds on the built in calendar app so that I can hear them. I have tried adding mp3 files to /system/media/audio/notifications but the folder won't accept them. I cannot find any way of calling sounds from another folder (eg the external card) within the app itself. How can I do this?
You need to be rooted to be able to copy files to the /system (and thus /system/media) folder.
If you are rooted, convert your mp3 to an ogg file with any audio converter and put the file in /system/media/audio/notifications and see if you can select it as your notification sound in the calendar.
Thanks, but I'm not rooted and wouldn't want to attempt to go down that road as I totally don't understand it.
Can anyone help me put in some useable alert tones please?
