How can I use one of my MIDI files as the SMS alert sound?
i've never been able to change any of the non ringtones to anything but sounds present on the predifined list myself
Not sure if you are able to use MIDI files as ringtones/alert sounds. You may need to convert it to WMA or, as I have done, WAV. Once converted just copy the files to \WINDOWS on your PDA and the sounds will appear in the list.
sms alert

is there a way to;
A) change the actual volume of the alert (I know about turning vol up/down) but what I want here is a louder alert when I recieve a message.
B) can I download new wav files to add to the default ones with myxda2i?
B1) if the above is answered yes, can you advise how I install them please?
Thanks

I would like to add to this.
I have downloaded .wav files and copied them into the windows directory, but when I go to listen to them in the sounds and notifications section they don't play, this has happened to all .wav files apart from one so far.
Look for the Nokia sms sound file uploaded somewhere in this forum. it works on my imate pocket pc and is loud.

I've also noticed that many wav files are some how encoded in mp3. So they have a file ext of .wav but ppc will only play pure wav files. If you switch the file ext on the wav's that do not play to .mp3 they will sudenly play in windows media player. this will tel you that it is not pure wav encoding.
if you choose properies of the wav file on the pc
it should ms ad pcm as format then it's a pure bred

Hiya,
Im using a Universal with WM6, the built in tones arnt loud enough for me. I downloaded a few more tones but they dont seem to be loud enough either, can anyone recommend some really loud tones?
Also, im trying to figure out how to install my own ringtones for SMS messages. I cant seem to see the same tones i have on the incoming call list of tones.
Any solutions would be greatly appreciated.
a free pc program like goldwave can amplify audio files default vol lvl
and sms tones need to be wav
is there any way to convert the standard wm ringtone to wav format so i can use it as a sms tone? one of them sounds like it would be perfect for sms.
also, do i put the sms tones in the same ringtone folder (im using wm6)
cheers
easy quick way is to use the free pc program called cdex it let you convert just about any audio format to any other
thanks so much, but do i put the alert tones in the /ringtones folder too?
thanks
Hi there,
I'm new here and i'm sorry if i'm doing something wrong.
i want to put a mp3 music as ringing call and alarm but i cannot find the mp3 to select.
how can i do that?or where can i put him so i can select it?
Thanks
For sure put it in Windows folder or My documents\Rings, but it only works for calls. For alarm you must use a .wav file, only under Windows folder.
Hi...
Thanks...Now is working well...
Thanks again...

Only .wav files will work for SMS/MMS alerts.
You copy them to your Windows directory and also to Windows\Rings.
Make sure you have everthing for SMS and MMS turned on in your sound settings. If it doesn't work, try selecting another file. Sometimes not all .wav files will work.
If you put an .mp3 file under windows folder, it will work for sms, maybe and for mms.
The problem is bigger:// Even system files are not playing the sms sound. Other files copied to windows directory also doesn't give a single sound of incomind message.
mp3 as sms/mms
i use mp3s for mms/sms. put them in your my documents folder on your phone. then go to settings-sounds¬ifications-over to notifications-under event pick new mms or new sms then select the sound, it will be there
There is a default setting ringtone in my LGO3D. How to change customize that to use my own mp3 as a ringtone? Is it possible to set individual ringtone for each contact?
Thanks.
custom ringtones
I created a directory in mnt / sdcard that I named it audio, then I created ringtones directory in it, I put mp3 files there and then reset the phone, mp3 files appeared in a selection of tones
I manage to make it appear in my ringtone selection by placing the audio files in sdcard/media/ringtones. But now it make the audio not appear in music player. Default music player require it to be placed in sdcard/media/music folder.
Is there a way to make the ringtone files able to be browse and select? Any app recomendation? I tried ringo. But the audio files need to be places specific in the sdcard/media/ringtones.
I go into my music press and hold an mp3 song you want at it says use as ringtone
dno if that helps
this works
look on the market for "ringtone maker" it is free and you browse for a song on your library and then crop it and you can either set it is notification ringtone or default call tone
As for the contact assignment i have not tried this but just had a quick look in my contacts and i cant see an option for it.
Ringdroid
I use and enjoy Ringdroid.
Ok, found that ringo pro can do the trick. I hope there is a free way.
Hi everyone!
The most common problem with vox is one cannot set custom alert tones for sms and mail alert.
I read somewhere that WMA tones can be set as alert tones if placed under Wndows folder or Windows/Rings folder.
Tried the same.
I used http://audio.online-convert.com/convert-to-wma site to convert an mp3 alert to wma. I used 128kbps/22khz/Mono (tried Stereo as well) but it didnt appear in the settings.
Any suggestions regarding bitrate or any other point?
I'm very desperate to apply new tones to my alert since i'm extremely bored with the same tones since years now.
Kindly help...
