1) Store the corresponding mp3 files under Application Data\Sounds. Afterwards you will be able to choose the ring tone in the settings (sounds and notifications).
5) It's exactly the same. Use the Ctrl. key on the onscreen keyboard (the original one with the tiny keys, not any third party keyboards). Or use a third party explorer like Total Commander or Resco Explorer. They usually come with a multi selection function.
8) Use the official Divx Mobile from Divx.com or TCPMP (a search will do it). These are the free programs. A commercial solution is Core Player which is available on coreplayer.com.
That's my contribution I cant answer the other questions.
thanx so much, right now i'm searching for DivX mobile and u really helped me with this Ctrl thing i never use on-screen keyboard but i'll now

I'm new to the Wizard 8125 and i'm trying to figure out how to use ringers besides the ones that come on the phone. Can i upload songs or download of the internet?
any song. mp3 or wma
if you have a sd card . just tap and hold the mp3 or wma file song you want . and tap ( set as ringtone ) in the window
this will automatically add the song to your ringtones Folder in the main memory of your phone
good luck.
yes, but that only works for ringtones
not for notices such as incomming messages, or missed call notifications....etc
on a fluke however, i have a wav file (of homer simpson screaming woohoo) that DID end up in the menu for incomming messages notifications and such... so my question is, is there a certain criteria for custom soundfiles to work as something other than a ringtone?
anyone? anyone at all?
I use PhoneAlarm to do this. I am not sure how to do this through registry or know of a freeware app but I do know phoneAlarm does a very good job of this.
SoBBie
alerts
The way i do is copy the sound from you mc card use file explorer then go into windows on your phone scroll to the bottom of the folder then press with the styles then paste then it will be there when you set the alarm hope that helps
Ringers-alarms-n text,emails-ext
Yes the ringer 4 the cell does work on mem crd by tap hold n set as ringer as far as alarms n text n blah blah the have to b WAV files or u can copy n paste it under windows to the main phone mem. n that will work !!!
PERFECT
you just need to copy the file under the windows folder... thank you!
Right i have searched and searched and cannot get the answer i am looking for. I have the mp3 i want as an SMS tone in \storage\my docs, \my device\windows, plus all the other places people suggest and still it will not allow me to select the tone for SMS. Some one please help its driving me mad!
Easiest way if you are stuggling is to open the mp3 trimmer application, browse for the file where the mp3 is, select the mp3, then edit it to your liking. The phone will then ask you if you want it set as default ringtone!!
Hope this helps

Have you tried putting the files in /Application Data/Sounds/ ? Works for me..
I have never been able to use an MP3 file as an SMS, Mail, MMS, Alarm etc tone. Using it for a ringtone however works fine.
It seems that it only want WAV files if you want it for an SMS, Mail etc tone. So convert the file to WAV using you PC / MAC and drop it in /Windows. Then you can select it.
try putting it on the root of phone memory.
mine never works on internal storage but on phone
memory is fine.
Yep had it in route and still wont work. tried in app data\sounds still no joy. Ill try the convert to a wav file see if i get anywhere with that
nope still no joy with the WAV file
Try not only to save it as .wav but as a wavefile in PCM format
I spend some time back on the earlier QTEK's to get this part working, best shot is that it's still like this.
Kindly
you should copy them to your windows folder on the phone
thats where te other sms tones are stored,worked for me even with mp3 files

lol thanks - as i said above it doesnt work
I've got my worms sms notification located in File explorer>My device>Internal storage.
Then go to sounds/notifications and it should appear in the available sounds list.
Works fine... however I did try it with another mp3 file in exactly the same way and although it appears in the list it won't actually play the sound.

Available patch for mp3 SMS tones was:
>My device>Internal storage
>My device>Windows.

Can anyone please help me with a serious problem that has reared its ugly head. I am currently running ROMeOS v4.6.0 but I have had this problem is other ROMS before so I'm posting this cry for help here. I keep losing my notifications sounds ie when I get a text message no alert sounds and there is no vibration despite the fact that I have selected that both should occur in Sounds & Notifications. In the Sounds and Notifications page if I select an alert from the drop down box for, say, "New text message" I cannot preview the sound when I click the sound preview button and when I select "ok" I get the error "This ring tone file is corrupted or unavailable. Please choose a different ring tone" This happens for every alert sound listed.
The bizarre thing is sometimes the notifications and vibrate works but usually doesn't. A soft reset can fix the problem temporarily but I have no idea when the problem will re occur.
I will mention that I had previously saved a few Diamond alerts and ring tones in /Windows and Windows/Rings respectively but I have now deleted them in case it was this that was causing the problem. I'm have now just selected the alerts that came in the original ROM but I'm getting this error message again and again and missing my SMS's due to no alerts/vibrate.
Does anyone have thefaintest idea what could be causing this strange behavior? I have searched but despite a few references to this error no cure is mentioned. Can anyone help with this?
Solution to the problem "This ring tone file is corrupted or unavailable..."
Hi everybody!
I used to have the same problem. When I tried to set an mp3 ring tone for incoming calls or when I tried to set an alarm with mp3 sound, a box appeared saying "This ring tone file is corrupted or unavailable. Please choose a different ring tone." The ring tone defaulted to Ring-WindowsMobile. I use Samsung SGH-i780 PPC with Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional. The problem occurred after installation of .NET compact framework 3.5 or after installation or deinstallation of NoteM 1.21 voice recording software. I have read many posts and come to the conclusion that apart from hard reset of my PPC there is no other useful suggestion on the web So I had to figure it out myself and I did
First thing I have noticed is that I could use *.wma ring tone and alarm sound. So i used Free Mp3 Wma Converter 1.8.0 on my laptop to convert two mp3 files, meant to be used as a ring tone and alarm sound, to WMA format and then I put them it into /My Documents folder, using ActiveSync. Then I could select these two wma files as my ring tone and alarm sound. Good start.
Then I realized that when I clicked on any mp3 file in file explorer, this file did not opened in my Windows Media Player Mobile 10. So I used my Total Commander for Windows Mobile (Total Commander/CE V. 2.51), which by the way is a great stuff, to set default application for opening mp3 files. After "right-clicking" (i.e., holding down the stylus/mouse until a context menu appears) on any mp3 file you can select Properties. Then choose second tab - Open with. Here you should have an antry ".mp3 -> mp3file". If you do not have one, you can add it by clicking on the Open with button and typing: Command: wmplayer.exe (this application is in \Windows folder, so you do not need full path), Parameters: "%1", Icon file: \Windows\wmplayer.exe, Index: 0. Last two options are not essential. Note that %1 must be quoted! Ok, after accepting these settings, you should be able to open your mp3 files with Windows Media Player. Not bad, right?
The second step involves editing your registry. I am going to describe how to do this with the aforementioned Total Commander, which fits this task very well. You should go to the root of your directory tree: \. Then choose \\Plugins\registry\HKCR. First, go to .mp3 folder (you can just start typing letters - Total Commander will navigate you to the proper folder) and enter it. Click on Default - you should see mp3file. Yes, this is one of the results of setting WMP as a default application to handle mp3 files.
Now, the most important part comes! Navigate to another folder in HKCR, called mp3file and enter it. In my case, I had only two subfolders here: DefaultIcon and Shell. By the way, you can see that subfolder Shell\Open\Command contains a key Default with value wmplayer.exe "%1". This is the second of the results of setting WMP as a default application to handle mp3 files. So, coming back to the point - we are in mp3file folder. Now, you should set a correct event sound handler for mp3 files by adding the following folders: Shellex\EventSoundHandlers\{245F94CF-DD9C-46F9-B4C8-D2B14A877893} (i.e., you have to add Shellex subfolder, then enter it and add EventSoundHandlers subfolder and then enter this subfolder and add next subfolder called {245F94CF-DD9C-46F9-B4C8-D2B14A877893}). Note braces in the last subfolder name! Ok, once you are in the subfolder {245F94CF-DD9C-46F9-B4C8-D2B14A877893}, add a new DEFAULT key by hitting New value, then ticking default check box and pressing the OK button. When asked for the value of the new default key, type XME EventSound Player and accept. Now, you should be able to set mp3 ring tones as well as set mp3 alarm sound. At least I was able
Two more notes:
1) The name of the subfolder created in HKCR\mp3file\Shellex\EventSoundHandlers should be identical to the name of the subfolder in HKCR\WMAFile\Shellex\EventSoundHandlers (it seems that wma and mp3 files are handled by the same event sound handler). If you have different subfolder name in HKCR\WMAFile\Shellex\EventSoundHandlers, and your wma files can be set as a ring tone and alarm sound, use your folder name instead of mine ({245F94CF-DD9C-46F9-B4C8-D2B14A877893}).
2) You can reenable an option of setting mp3 file as a ring tone from the context menu. To achieve this, you need HKCR\mp3file\Shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\{...} folder. In this folder add default key with value Set As Ringtone. Check what should be placed inside braces (instead of ...) by checking the name of the folder found in HKCR\WMAFile\Shellex\ContextMenuHandlers. My value is E88B4A18-6F77-4bb6-8E0D-DCD4B1F8F1DA.
I hope this helps. Good luck!
Alright, I have read a few people being able to use tones for texts a lot easier using WM 6.1 -- how did you do this exactly?
I have put the tone in my documents but I have no idea how to apply it to texts? Any ideas?
do you mean how to apply any diffrent noise for texting or just custom? it's under sounds and notifications. other then that; i store all my text tones in storagecard/mydocuments. they should automaticly be added. Hope this helped.
When I go to sound notifications and select ringtones I can see the ringtone i want as long as it is in the my ringtone folder.
But when I select incoming text I can only see the default sounds and none of my ones in my ringtones.
Whats up?

Put them to /Windows. But this works only with wmv files.
Thanks that works brilliant.
P.s. to anyone trying to do this... u have to access windows thru ur pda, not thru ur pc.
Use File explorer. (top left screen in file exporer) navigate to My Device in there u ll see windows. U can copy and past ur file in it by going (bottom left) menu - edit - cut. Then go to windows and paste.

I prefer Pocket TotalCommander.
I have the emobile touch diamond, Japanese version. I cannot figure out how to set my mp3s as a ringtone. It will only let me make .wma format into a ringtone. Can anyone help?
The easiest way to set an mp3 as your ringtone would be to do it from within HTC audio manager. Play your mp3 file in audio manager, click on menu-->Set as ringtone. Trim your file to play not more than 40-45 seconds since most carriers cant play a ringtone longer than that. After you trim it, select set as default ring tone.
Even if I play the track in the HTC audio manager the menu does not show "set ring tone" only allows me to add to playlist, properties, ect.
Hmm......ok. Do this, take your mp3 file...and save it in the following location. Using file explorer go to my documents-->my ringtones. Save your file here. Now go to start-->settings-->personal-->sounds and notifications-->notifications-->incoming call. You should be able to see your mp3 file in the drop down.
Good Luck.

that works.. but if you hooking your phone to the computer using activesyne.. they have an option when you first sync it to see if you want to sync music as well...
if you did that.. your Phone My Document folder will show up on the desktop.. and you should be able to see a folder name My Ringtones there.. copy and paste the ringtons you want in there..
and now just go back to your phone.. under Notification.. you should be able to see your ringtones under the drop down like syedimran said
Ya, something is different because it is a Japanese rom. It does have a ringtone folder, but the name is in Japanese. Even if I put files in there they do not show up in setting/personal/sounds and notifications/notifications/incoming calls drop down menu. It is very strange.
Might I suggest flashing a nice clean english rom then. Its gonna save you a lot of rework and its easier this way. Ofcourse the choice is all yours.
How would I go about flashing the rom? Would everything else work ok?

Flashing a new ROM would cause everything other than the stuff in your internal storage deleted.
You can backup call history, sms, e-mails, contacts using this program call PIM Backup (search it on the forum you will see it, or go under the ROM development section click on the Dutty 3.5b Final post and in the first page he has a link to PIM Backup)
Just follow the instruction from the Dutty 3.5b Final post and you will know how to flash a new ROM
of course you can also choose other ROMs of you choice but the same instruction applies to all ROM
