how do i add a new ringtone to my ringtone list for the sms service, i know how to change the call ringtone. how do i do the same for the sms service?
by adding WAV files of the type ACPM (default windows pcm wav)
to the \windows dir
then they show up on the list
be sure that it is .wav or .wma or .midi not mp3 cuz himalaya doesnt support mp3 as a tone
Cheers
mid and wma are only supported for ring tones not for pda sounds such as sms notification and alarms and such
only wav works there
TO assign mp3 to ringtones, a software with a registry modification was suggested. I have tried all this but have not been able to assign mp3's to my ringtones. Any other solutions other than converting to wav or any other format?
Please suggest. will try and give you feedback

In my case, the "add ringtone" program only seems to recognize .WAV files. How can I add a ringtone in .MPA and .WMA format?
Thanks
Is there a way for the xda mini or any of the xda models to use midi as polyphonic sms tone, not only for ringtone. Nokia and other phone models uses polyphonic tones for their sms but the xda can only use wav, wma and mp3 format.

Hi,
On my qtek 1020, I had set up a mp3 song as my ringtone, but now I want to change it. When I click on other songs, i do not see the Set as ringtone option. I even deleted the song which was set as the ringone, but it still plays as the ringtone, and on other songs I still dont see a set as ringtone option. Whats the best way to change the ringtone?
Thanks
Go to Start->Settings->Phone to set your ringtone.
The ringtone you set is probably now in windows\rings
Hi,
Thanks for that. I was able to delete that ringtone by going to windows/rings but I still dont see "set as ringtone" options for other Mp3's that I have got. I copied an MP3 song to the windows/rings folder, but still dont see it as an ringtone options..any ideas How I could possibly set this up as a ringtone?
Could this have something to do with the file size?
if it's wm2002 it can only use wav ring tones
if it's wm2003 then it can only use wav and mid and wma ring tones
you can make mp3 to wma using the free program CDEX
If you have installed a media player that has associated itself with .mp3 then you will not be able to select mp3s in the settings. You will need to open the player installed and clear the association in settings. If this does not work search for "mp3 ringtone" and you will find the registry setting that you may need to manually change.
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
