What app are y'all using for ringtones? I've tried Ringdroid on two different Captivates with varying ROMs and every single time I use it to make a song into a ringtone it skips and is choppy.
There's lots of apps in the market to download them for free. I like Zedge and Ringtones (It's the one in the market with the fire bar equilizer icon).
I use Zedge, I think its the best in my opinion

I figured out how to do custom ringtones but not how to set custom alarms.
How do I put an mp3 file I have to be an alarm? (all the alarms that come on the phone suck and def do not wake me up in the morning).
You need 3rd party software to use MP3s as ringtones.
Im not trying to do ringtones and I already am using mp3s as ringtones without a 3rd party app. Just put the song in the windows/ring/ folder.
Im trying to set a custom alarm.
Try Chronos, PocketAlarm or alarmToday.
All of these allow you to use an MP3 for an alarm, in addition to a variety of other advanced features.

Anything that doesnt cost money?
My bad, I meant alarms like your post wanted. As for cost, I haven't found anything free myself.
Mort Player
You can use Mort Player as Alarm Tool.
I use it too. You can use Mort Player with mp3 and the best function is,
that mort Player can chance the System Loudness to any Volume that you want.
So you can turn Loudness off when you sleep and MortPlayer will turn it on to wake you up in the morning.
And MortPlayer ist free

anyone else on an alarm program I can use that will allow me to play my own tunes. Or at least a way to put my mp3 file in a specific file so that it will show up on the scroll down list.
Make it a WAV file and put it into your /Windows/ dir.
Then go to your alarm app and click the "bell" and you should see your file.
converted it to a wav file. Came out being huge for one song though(32mb). It came up on the list but every time I clicked on it, it went to default. Whats going on.
I suggest you look a bit around in this thread, you'll find a few free ones in here too
Alarm applications
I'm looking for a zip file that has a collection of android ready ringtones/notification tones. no songs, just similiar to what comes on the phone, only a different collection. any help???
THIS is from cyanogen's 4.0.4 thread, he calls it audio resources.
I recommend an app called Mabilo on the market. It has a bunch of good ringtones in it. If you don't want songs stick to the sound effects and funny categories.
Can anyone recommend any great music players for android?
i really like 3.

can't find it in the market
I searched in the market using "3" but couldn't find it. i also searched for "cubed" and a no show either.
I made a thread regarding this app in the themes and apps section. It is pretty nice although the playlist design could be slightly better. Search the market for Filipe Abrantes! Personally, I just use the music mod now as the stock player, while very capable, was just so ugly. The mod solves this issue.

Search the Android Market by pressing and holding the number 3 on keyboard, until a superscript 3 appears.
Doubletwist, if it's still free.
Just search Filipe Abrantes and it comes up right away!

found the "3" player using holding down 3 on the keyboard.
thanks!!!
I don't play a lot of music on my phones, I have a 32G Zen for that.. but I do it occationally..
I've tried Mort Player, 3 (Cubed), MixZing... They do different things, none of them great... I'd like to find a fairly simple player that one can build a playlist in, but allows multiple ways to find the music...
For example, Mort Player's big thing is "folder playing", well IMO that's just ONE METHOD of finding the music.. Browse by folder, or browse by tag. Not sure why that's the "big feature" in that player, as it's IMO very limiting.
3 and MixZing are a bit overdone, and 3 makes it cute but slow to find a particular album or song to play without searching. And yes, I've tried the different View's, the "Wall" one is the best for me, I suppose...
Honestly I'd rather just have a list by tags or to browse by folder, add to queue, replace queue.. That simple.
I organise my music and other audio files in folders rather than tagging things by album etc. For this arrangement, best I've found is "Mortplayer Audio Books". Don't be fooled by the title, it works great for plain music. It remembers exactly where you last played in multiple folders, so you could for example have different albums in different folders, and as you switch between them it continues where you last left off.

+1, DoubleTwist is amazing
bTunes - Simple to use, plenty of options.
BTunes Player is cool
I use bTunes because of the lockscreen widget
³ looks really nice!
but I can't for the life of me figure out how to make it just shuffle through all my music? it just sticks to one album?
even the stock player just works out of the box and plays through all my tracks.. even repeat doesn't seem to work in ³.. such a great player and missing such simple features?
Sheesh, are there NO players for Android that allow building a playlist/queue!? Do people really just use shuffle mode these days?
³ lets you build a queue.
hmm.. ³ won't let you open an m3u ?
Do I seriously have to sit and add all my tracks into a queue or something? I must be missing something here.
I like museek
Right, first of all I know about the .nomedia trick; moving on.
Recently got the Galaxy S, I like it a lot after coming from the omnia and windows mobile, haven't really been having any lag problems (although i voodoo'd myself up anyway) but one thing is bothering me.
I like having a custom sound for my SMS notification as the stock ones included are all a bit effeminate for my tastes, so I went out and I downloaded the power up sound from Super Mario Bros 3 and it makes a fine SMS notification sound.
However, it appears in the music player too and it is rather jarring to jump from some sweet heavy metal to the sound of mario getting a mushroom. I gave the .nomedia thing a try and then my sms notifications went silent and I realised it was being hidden from the notification ringtones list too.
So does anyone know if there is any way to hide an item from the music player but still have it selectable as a notifications ringtone?
Cheers
Try to use a different music player instead, winamp is already on andriod altho it beta but its works great!
I've spent the last four hours reading about various music apps and apparently some sound much better than others...
Do most of you use the stock HTC app or something else like PlayerPro, PowerPlay, or WinAmp Pro? Those seem to be the best options, unless Neutron has cleaned up it's UI.
The only real complaint I have is that if you play an artist and then go back to the list it doesn't remember where you were in that list and just puts you at the top.
I've also noticed that friends phones sound better(richer) when they're using PlayerPro, but that could be EQ settings.
So what do you use and what do you like about it?
I don't really care which player plays my music. As long as it can play the files I have I just go with that
The only problem I have with it is that it lacks gapless playback, which I know isn't important to everyone, but it is to me. Oh and you can't manually change your album artwork so they quality of the pictures ends up being pretty low. Otherwise I think it's a pretty big improvement on the Htc One X's, or rather ICS's Sense player.
Playerpro is by far the BEST of all music players I have tried. It has an option for almost anything. I'm almost 100% sure it keeps your place in the list, but it definitely keeps the album you were playing. The players has gapless, the album flow keeps the pictures in memory so you don't get that loading pictures thing when scrolling, lyrics are saveable, album artwork chooosable, and the DSP pack allows even more customization. But other then that i also has a whole bunch of skins to choose from if you get bored of one try another, it's great! It also lets you use the stock music lockscreen with is great. There are so many more advantages to Player Pro, my recommendation
My only gripe is that you do not have a shuffle option in a playlist which is such an easy fix,I hope HTC fix this in a future update.

I was actually wondering about this as well. Such a basic feature and it doesn't have it My year old HoX has it lol.
I have PowerAmp Pro installed but actually prefer the stock music app as I like the lockscreen controls and similar gestures to PowerAmp. I also like how you can access all of your songs from the music player without having to unlock the phone.
As an aside, I am hating the Mail app but only use it due to the lockscreen notifications and don't want to install Widget Locker. Wish there was a way to use the Gmail App and still receive lockscreen notifications.
