You have to pull them into a sound editor (a free one such as audacity works well) and do a global +db enhancement on them..typically +5-8db will work..you enhance them to much and you can get "clipping" sounds at high points. Do a google on audacity...runs on windows and linux...probably mac also.

Thank You
Thanks for the help

Cannot get files to desktop
How do I extract the files to desktop to edit them. I had a cab file install. What to Do ?????

Audacity does run on macs. It is a magnificent free sound editor program. I highly recommend it!

I use this online tool
www.makeownringtone.com
It's free. And it's a bit less complicated than using Audacity.

No need to install additional software as suggested by Bechai. Asim's method is enough.

Wrong. O2 XDA mini use WE2003 so it can not be done as your way. The simple way for this topic as I had, install TCPMP soft. In Options>setting>select page>File associations then click MPEG Audio files or what kind of music files which you want to set as your XDA ringtones.
CHEER!!!
Thanks... viet......
:twisted:
just copy the Mp3 to the rings folder in windows.. works just fine for O2 mini.. no problems at all
Mine worked but no longer...

I have a O2 MINI. ROM 1.11.00 Radio 1.12
I had installed this fine and the mp3 tones were working jsut fine, till a few days back, i was installing applications like Fonix voice and Audionotes etc.... then i unistalled audionotes, and a few other applications and games i longer used.... and then all of a sudden my Mp3 ringtones stopped working.
when i click on the ringtone, it says that there is no application associated with this file or it is corrupt. But then when i open windows media players and open the same file it works 100%. I then installed tcpmp and associated the mp3 files.
then when i click on it, it says that the file is not found make sure that the path etc is correct or not, but when u open it individually in the player it works.....
Help me out, what should i do.... i must have deleted another file that day or something....
What should i do... help me? Would a Hard Reset work.
Thanx in advance
have u copid ur mp3s to ur rings folder or play it someother way? in mini al u need to do is copy the mp3 to the windows.rings folder and then access them through the phone setting.. sweet n simple

WM6.1 Sounds Audio Files Types & Gain

I'm new to WM6.1 Pro. Was using Standard and got a new phone.
With my trusty old Tornado, I recall there was a time when it wouldn't use just any audio file (wav, mp3, etc) as an alarm, notification or system sound. Then, one day before I could investigate this phenomenon, I installed a Tornado ROM that made them all work.
So imagine my disappointment when Wilhelm III (yes, I named my phone, what of it?) with a 6.1 ROM wouldn't let me use just any old sound file.
So I need to ask, what criteria is this functionality based on? Is it determined by the location of the audio files? The encoding of the files? Does it have to be wma or wav, or specifically what codecs or bitrates?
With WM Standard, I was able to adjust maximum volume output through the AudioGain settings in the registry for BT, and Speaker (I could have adjust mic pick-up too but I had no need).
But it seems that WM Pro doesn't have AudioGain, so how do I tweak my phone to ring louder, and hear voices better?
And yes, I have searched, I do search, and despite being lost for hours and being greatly more informed about many things, I haven't found an answer that provided results for me. And despite my sudden return to noobishness, I am generally a very helpful person, so I think I deserve a freebie quickie question-response this time.
TIA

How to get volume louder?

Hey i just moved from my n95 with its good speakers but the touch pro;s cant get any louder then my n95 is there a way to get the volume on the same level as the n95? Because if i riding my bike i cant hear the speaker welll. and i hate earplugs so...
How to get volume louder
I have used a file that I found on aruppenthal's ROM that seems to work (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488781). I have attached it to the reply as well. Hope this works for you.
thx i'll check it out!
where does the installed program goto? Not in programs, explorer or settings... where can i find it?
I believe you don't have to run it as a program. It probably changes some registry value. Install the cab and then reboot your phone. After that it would sound louder than before.
but it does'nt i resintalled it on de device mem and still nothing
Which model?
which carrier?
which rom?
You want the speaker louder on 'speaker' when you're listening to music I take it?
The CAB file above works for increasing in-call volume on some ROM's
Htc touch pro (europe)
Telfort(dutch)
rom version is: 1.90.404.1 NLD
Yes the speaker for listening music. the incall volume did get louder but thats not what i'm searchin for... thx anyway.
Any other programs?
anybody successfully tried using SRS WOW HD?
Whats that can it make the speaker louder? and now the speaker off my phone sounds really crappy like its blown or sometin'
nothing can make speaker louder really
in a program
digital audio is a frame for which one use 16bit to give a value of sound every
1/sample-Rate sec
if the audio stream is low one can amp it digitally but also amplifying any noise
present in the file
and if one amp higher so some audio peeks inc over the values given by 16bit
distortion will ruin any quality the audio sample once had
ok and now in english please... XD
My english is not that good...
But if i call someone in the speaker mode it seems that its louder then when i play music trough speaker...
And is the htc speaker just bad because those warning sounds from wm6 are even not nice and crisp...
I installed the srs wow hd but where does the program goto? not in explorer, programs, settings, tf3d or windows media player
where can i find it?
i use this it helpswith all volume i believe
i hope it helps
thx i'll try that...
The SRS wow gave me alot of problems i didnt hear any sound?! not from both the phone speaker and the music speaker?! Removed it now soft reset and everithuing was fine...
I'll let u know if this audio para works

it must be helpful however I have downloaded it on my Touch Pro but either it opens as an excel file or the format is not recognized. As I am no software professional like most of my unseen freinds here can someone help me out in the lay man's language about how to utilize this good work done on audio para.
Thanks in advance....
Audio para does'nt show up in prgrams or startmenu or settings

Version 1.2.10.0 worked great for me on the Stock ROM without the bloat, and now on NATF's 4.4 Standard. I installed it on my device from the cab, rebooted and it was good to go. tvos has a great thread on it, he attached the cab and describes the patterns he has seen for which ones worked and didn't work on the 4 Raphael's he has gone through. His thread is here:

I got my Audio_Lighter_Boost.cab from aruppenthal's thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467592#6
It worked perfectly for me on NATF's ROM. He also describes how to utilize the audiopara tweak.

All you need to do is use total commander and copy the new audiopara file to the windows directory. It will ask if you want to overwrite the audiopara file that is already there. click yes to overwrite the file, restart, and then enjoy the louder volume.

Windows system sound killed -> Error 0xc00d0012

Hi all,
i have a strange problem with the windows system sounds that does not seem to be ROM specific and here it comes:
Fresh installed device with own assigned system sounds (all wav files copied into the windows device folder) = Everything okay.
After a while (mostly some days) when the system sound is due, it only plays that short default "beep" instead of the assigned sound. The setting in the registry is still as okay as the sound setting itself.
When you open the specific wav file in Media player, it says: "Error 0xc00d0012"
Overwriting the file with a working one solves it temporarily again.
In my case it is the sound for IM+ messenger (when contacts go offline). It does not matter what sound you choose for this event.
I have read threads in other forums where users have the same problem but with other windows events/sounds so i don't know if this is to blame IM+...
What the hell is going on there ?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
Regards,
Scholler
I also have a similar issue, which I noticed only happening since the rom was upgraded by Vodafone.
I have a wav file set as new text message, but after a day or so, all I get is a beep. The file is unplayable but is you over write this file with a saved version, then it works again for another day or so.
Does it need to be a WMA file instead?
cheers
Neil
Hi Wheelie,
i don't think so but i will try it with a wma and see how it will behave...
Merry xmas,
Scholler
Okay, i tried it with a wma and it looks better now...
But i really don't understand why...

[APP] ASR - Sound Recorder - Free without limitations

Hi everyone, this is my another attempt to learn programming for Android by coding.
ASR - Sound recorder
Sound recorder without limitations!
ASR - Sound Recorder is one of the few apps on the Google Play that records directly to the MP3 format.
It is FREE and without any limitations on recording time!
Below permissions required:
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE to save recordings.
WRITE_SETTINGS to set recording as ring tone.
looks quite nice. however the icon is very non-ics-like
Thanks, do you mean like the Android Design guide?
My artistic skills are crap at best I've tried many icons but couldn't get better than this
kinda quick & dirty PS job. if you like it I'll send you the .ps
i also tried making a nice mic but those are kinda complicated
looks good, could you attach psd as zip? or upload some where?

any eta on the icon?
btw, what does it need network connection for?
two requests:
- make the low/high quality checkbox a dropdown where one can choose from a set of bitrates (32,64,96,128) or at least add in the description what the bitrate will be.
- native playback without requiring another app. I have the recordings in a folder with a .nomedia file so they don't show up in my media player while listening to music. but that prevents the media player from playing them. I don't want to install another player just to listen to a note every now and then. a very very very simple player (compare hi-q mp3 recorder) would be great.
Looks good! Will install and test it out.

I had to re-design current logo. There was another app with almost same logo as you have designed.
Network permission is required for upload & share feature

I didn't include bitrate settings too kep it simple but planning to add if it pics up. I am quite happy so far. It has 3000 downloads so far.
I will start working on internal player. Thanks
well there's only a few different icons that make sense for a recording app so it's natural that icons are gonna look more or less the same for all of them. there's at least 50 different (or not so different) microphone icons. so i don't see any problem using any icon just because of similarities, especially not if the icon is original and not a copy.
after test:
-64kbps is not good enough
-it didn`t work 2 times out of 5, file size 0
but it has perspective, hope you will improve it

Not sure if you had a different record button design then, but I am loving this brushed aluminium button in your latest version.
I'm using ASR mp3 recorder the past 2-3 weeks, but I have a serious issue(because affect phone's functionality too). If I use it to record something, the first recording is ok, but from the second time the sound volume lows down a lot. And this doesn' t happen only for the app' s recording file, but for all sounds of phone, and needed to reboot the device to returned to normal sound volume.
Any ideas why this happens, and hopefully a fix?

the psd i provided was my suggestion for the app icon, not the record button. the apps UI is actually quite nice, just the icon isn't, especially not on ICS/JB
