I have a SGT 7 with Gingerbread 2.3.3. I would like to add a personal default ringtone.
I tried to copy an .ogg and .wav file I created in to the ringtone folder, but was denied. I also created a ringtone folder on my sd card and external sd card, but not able to use either of them.
Anyone have an other ideas. Thanks...
Solved, Thanks to all.
Amigo, post your solution so we can learn too.

Trivial, i know but this is annoying the hell out of me!
tried to change the default folder for my ringtones:
here is what i did:
\HKCU\Control Panel\Sound Catagories\Ring\Directory
Changed the contents of this file from:
\Windows\Rings to \Storage Card\Rings
then i created a folder on my storage card called Rings.
for some reason it doesn't work!
as i said - trivial - but annoying!
anybody help?
thanks

To store ringtones on the storage card for regular use you need to put them in the root of the card. i.e. not in a folder but directly on the card. The same goes for text tones etc.. although these have to be .wav or .mid files. Works for me!
Can not get music from storage card to show up as ringtones. The songs are on the root of the storage card....have tried a soft reset....have tried copy/paste to the default ringtone folder and still nothing.
PLEASE HELP!!!!

Do anybody know why I cant transfer any mp3 to nexus s internal memory? I used Astro file manager , because want use some mp3 like ringtone melody, but my mda doesnt see it when it is saved on sd card. Any help or telephone must be unlocked for thi operation? THX
Pretty sure you need to be unlocked to access outside the sd card. You could try an app like ringdroid to create one of your mp3

does android support that file type natively, if it does on your SD card make folders media/ringtones or media /notifications
thx for help, second answer works
Hey Guys:
After rooting my RAZR i phone using Batakang's .bat file, Google Play and any other music player that reads the default media library cannot find any songs.
I have read several posts for other phones where people remove the NOMEDIA files from the root of the External SD Card, Delete the application's data and cache and removing the music folder and then adding the music files to a new one, and unfortunately that has not worked for me so far.
On a side note, Titanium backup could not find any of the app backups I had previously created that were stored in the External SD Card.
Does this mean that apps are somehow "forced" to look into the Internal SD Card and cannot detect the External one?
Do I need to somehow "swap" the Storage denominations?
ASTRO and Other File managers can find these files without breaking a sweat, which leaves me puzzled.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Hello again:
I tried lots of different things and was able to resolve my problem by formatting the SD card.
I hope didn't have to do that, but I was at my wits ends.
I can only conclude that there were NOMEDIA files somewhere in the SD card preventing a proper media library scan.

Hello I have Samsung GT-I9000 and I'm familiar with the phone, more or less. Recently I've bought a used Samsung GT-I9000 for my wife and I noticed that in file manager the shortcut for the external sd card is missing, same is with Root Explorer. I can access the external sd card by accessing the folder /storage and everything works but there is no shortcut. This has not been a problem until recently I wanted to upload a file to my skydrive folder which by default browses the sd_card_0 folder and I could not reach the external sd card. Please if someone could help me how to create a shortcut/link to the external sd card in to the build in sd card. I have searched for similar problems and solutions but I could not find any. Thanks

Hi tihis a know bugs (if you have ICS or later )
Anyway the solution may be the same, use directory bind (serch this app in xda) and create your shotcut where you want (root are needed )
try mnt folder. or make sure sd card are properly inserted. Any rooted file explorer can access to sd.
To make it clearer, this is the problem on the phone - the pointed folder is missing!

I'm not allowed to post external links so please go to the quoted url.
EDIT: I forgot to mention I'm using the awsome Xylon 2.4.1 Jelly Bean 4.2.2 ROM for I9000
try to browse ur url but da img not available there
after http there is a blank field which needs to be replaced with ://
i ........ nevermind.
are u rooted?
to be sure, juz rooted da explorer by clicking setting in menu button, and redirect everything to /storage/sdcard1
ur sd and internal are quite there so whats da problem? all 4.2.2 version already in ext4 so da folder /external_sd doesnt been used anymore, its for GB, u can see it by going to properties of da /external_sd and see there will be no space available.
JB uses /storage at / to indicate da sdcard, its proper that way and easy to organise
at /storage, there will be 2 directories, /sdcard0 (indicates your internal and /sdcard1 (indicates your external sd)
as i see here, there is nothing wrong with ur pic and fone
edited: i use root explorer so its taking a while for me to download CMfilemanager (well, gonna change ROM after this so installing it not a bother to me)
da first 2 thumbnail is my root explorer, the other are da same file explorer as yours
see thumbnail:
To solve this problem I used SiMi Folder. see this link
I also found Smart Shortcuts, which I like even better. see this link
