I'd like to use MP3's as ringtones but it seems like the the XDA will only allow .WAV files. I have put the MP3s in the Ringtones folder but the ringtone select option only shows me the .WAVs.
Am I missing something or am I limited to .WAVs only?

They need to be changed to wav files or wma files, dropped in the Windows folder and they will appear as a selection when your dropdown drops!!
it works fine.............thanks.

Or you can live it as mp3 and put it on the \Windows\Rings folder.
Three years later but I was searching for this now and founded it.

Does somebody know how to force Leo to play ringtones with mp3 extension? I already added some mp3's to windows/rings folder, but system doesn't see them.
its probably easiest using the MP3 Trimmer on the phone under the "MULTIMEDIA" folder...
Put the mp3 file in the "My Documents"-folder in the root of the mobile, not on the SD-card.
That is to say:
root/My Documents/mp3file.mp3
This mp3-file will work for both ringtone and sms-tone.
Hiya!
I am very curious if my Random Ringtone app works on the Leo.
If anybody wants to try it that would be appreciated.
If it doesnt work I would of course make it work.
Thanks in advance...

and Random Ringtones
Meery Nwe yaer!
I have a folder called "my ringtones" in my documents on the device (not the sd card). Try adding some mp3's there! Works for me! You also wanna trim ur mp3's using a PC app couse the mp3 trimmer in WM sux bigtime!
Big thanks for You buddies for Your help but unfortunatelly - none works on my device. I already try to put my mp3 ringtone to My Documents and My Ringtones (later) folder as well, but system still doesn't see my mp3's . What's going on?. It can't be so difficult! Tell me - how do You set up Your ringtone on Your device? Settings/Sound&Display/Ringtone (or Notification Sounds)?
OK. After Soft Reset UMISS'es method works! Own ringtones are visible for system in My Documents folder. Thank You pal.

Hoi Gandalf
you should put the MP3 in : Computer\ HD2 T8585\\\My Documents\My Ringtones
Alarm sounds: are stored in the Windows dir

mp3 as ringtone
this setup is very simple:
take the built-in file explorer and go to mp3 folder. choose your favourite mp3 file, long tap on it and then "set as ringtone"
it works for me with my hd2

Indeed works like a charm. But then follows the second question:
How to make a MP3 for the other systems sound like Remainders, alarms, incoming email, incoming voice mail?
I've tried to put the files anywhere in the My documents folders, but no joy
someone? Please?

Hello
Do NOT waste valuable space from main memory for the mp3 ringtone which placed in My documents or /Windows.
Place the mp3 files in the root of the SD card without folders. It will show up and works great and You do not have to worry about flashing any custom rom. The files in the SD card stays.
Good luck
Happy new year
MP3 alarms

Pegasus,
Sometimes life is so simple. Thank you very much, your solution is the ONE. Works wonders.
reg. fred
for ringtones, u can have the mp3 in anywhere phone or SD memory, directly choose the file to be used as a ringtone in the file explorer...
for other notifications or messages or alarms, convert the file to wav and copy it to /windows folder ...then go to settings->menu->all settings->sounds and notifications n select the tune for the specific event.
HTC HD2 or iphone?
Hello guys. i was getting ready to buy an HD2 but now i see that simple things like diffirent mp3 for calls or for a caller or sms, alarms etc. are configured so hard, along with other hard questions like the difficult customizing of the hd2 have started make me thing again of the iphone. You people that alredy have an HD2 what do you suggest me? i do really care much about the easyness of synchronizing and the ability to synchro with other progs other than outlook. What would you suggest me?
Keep in mind,
if u use this Ringtone App u can change your ring directory as well as have multiple rings for each alarm.
thanks,
Keith
I used Mp3 trimmer to cut a song short. Now I cant seem to remove it from the device as I cant find it anyway. But it is still shoing up on the ring tone menu.

I dont seem to have a Windows folder on my HD2, but when trying to make the folder I was told I cant as it alreayd exists. Tryping the address into the bar tells me that it doesnt exist.... So I assume Windows Mobile Device Center is crap.

There's nothing difficult in changing the sounds. As you can see, there are many ways how to do that and they all work (for most users). There is nothing more simple then just copy your desired ringtones to windows folder and then just set it up.
Buying an iphone would be a terrible mistake, it's an old and inferior device compared to HD2.
MP3 Ringtone on SD Card
It's not recommended to save MP3 or any other big files into device memory. copy your MP3 files only to your "Storage Card".
It's so easy, just copy your MP3 song(s) to "\Storage Card\My Documents\My Ringtones" folder (and if you don't have "My Ringtones" folder just create one).

Hello everyone, I hope this post is in the correct forum.
I Googled extensively about applying custom MP3's as ringtones and have read conflicting answers. I have created a folder called ringtones on the sd card but the mp3's do not show up as options when trying to change the ringtone. And if someone else has posted about this, I apologize. Thanks
put your ringtones in media/audio/ringtones on the sdcard, the internal one
That's where my ringtones are I have them on my sd card I made a fokder called.ringtones also for videos and pictures idk why it won't work for you but try putting them on the internal memory

Sent from my Samsung Infuse 4G
EDIT:
Here is the Touchwiz music player that allows you to set mp3's as ringtones with out putting your music in a ringtone file...

Put the MP3s in a folder called "ringtone" on either your internal or external SD. No additional apps needed.
Thanks everyone. I will try each suggestion and post back with results.
Cheers
Sorry for the tardiness of this reply. Thank you Hoofadoo, your suggestion worked. They now show when I want to select a custom ringtone. And BTW, my mp3 ringtones are all over 300kb so for me it seems to be working.
Thanks everyone,

Know this is an older thread but wanted to post what worked for me.
I have the Infuse 2.3.6 running Vagabond ROM 3.2 by Qkster.
I was able to get the mp3 ringtones to load by placing them in a folder "ringtones" on the externalsd.
I have stock rom and have never had a problem setting mp3 files as ringtones... I just open in music player and hit menu then set as ringtone
If you have media scanner running on every boot (typical scenario):
1. Copy the mp3 into a folder called "ringtones" on internal or external SD
2. Go to settings --> Sound and set the mp3 as ring tone
If you have media scanner disabled (like me):
1. Enable media scanner
2. Copy the mp3 into /system/media/ringtones
3. Reboot
4. Go to settings --> Sound and set the mp3 as ring tone
5. Disable the media scanner
6. (Optional) Reboot and verify if the ringtone is still there
I have been using the second method since my Captivate days and have used it on many many ROMs, and it worked on every ROM.
