Simply try copying the ringtone file with root explorer to /system/media/audio/ringtones , choose the ringtone in settings and see it will fix or not
since originally Froyo Mod 2.7's Honycomb music APK didn't give any Ringtone choosing options so i go this way
sorry for my bad english
I have 2.3.3 running well, or at least pretty well, but I want to add some of my MP3 tones to the phone. The ringtones are is the root/system/media/audio path and I was wondering if there is a post explaining how to add to the notification and ringtone folders. I am from WinMo and this is my first android. I loved flashing my Tilt and found droid to be easier to work with.
Any help or direction would be appreciated. I have searched but didn't find a How To.
Thanks
I just use a ringtone maker app from the market. Not sure if your looking for something more than this, but there's a bunch of em. They work with all the music on my phone

I already have the tones download to my sd card and I can move them around EXCEPT for putting them in the system subfolder in the root directory. When I copy and paste my existing mp3 tones, they fail when pasting to the Notification folder in the System folder.
/system/media/audio and all of the sub directories (notifications, ringtones, alarms on the phone are mounted as read only. If you want to copy your own tones into those folders you need a file manager app that has root access like root explorer, or es explorer.
Using Root explorer, navigate to the /system/media directory and toggle the file permissions from r/o (read only) to r/w (read write). from there you can use root explorer to copy/move your custom tones to the folders.
another way to include custom notification/ringtones is to make a folder in the phones internal SD called /media/audio/notification /media/audio/ringtones /media/audio/alarms and put your tones there. This method does not require root access.
So I recently rooted my Vivid. I have been trying to replace the lock and unlock sounds with root explorer, but I have no idea where the system sound files are. They aren't in the system media folder like before, because I tried replacing the sound files there but it didn't work. Does anyone no where those sound files are?
Is there anyway I can flash the default ringtones of ICS I'm on a ROM and for whatever reason theres nothing there...
You don't need to flash anything if you are rooted. All the ringtones and notifications are in /system/media/audio/ringtones and /system.../notifications. If you are rooted, just copy whatever *.ogg files you want into the appropriate folders.
Hello guys
Does anyone know how to change the system sounds ?( For example when i get the notification for low battery )
If you are rooted, use root browser and go to system/media/audio/ui and replace default sounds with desired sounds (must be.ogg) with same name. E.G. If you want to change lock sound, first rename the sound file which you want as 'lock' and replace it in ui folder's lock named file and change permission to rw-r-r.
Please take backup of ui folder before you replace any files. So that in future if you need, you can revert to stock sounds.
