loud ringtones, and how to install new tones for SMS - General Topics

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

Changing the SMS alert sound?

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.

.wav ringtones
Hi Guys
For .wav clips (rather than those dreadful polyphonic twangs) try:-

Put files thru activesync, explore into Windows, Rings for ringtones & into Windows folder for alarms. Some of the sounds I found were really funny :lol:
Thanks for the links.

Try to place your ringtone in windows only instead of windows\rings it worked for me
please remember that if you're on Winmo 6.1 that there is a file size limit. I recommend mp3 trimmer if you're interested in listening to a part of a song.

[Q] MP3 ringing call\alarm

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.

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&notifications-over to notifications-under event pick new mms or new sms then select the sound, it will be there

[Q] Suggested Bitrate For WMA Alert Tones

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...
