is there a way to use custom alert sounds?
i have a WAV file i've used on every phone i've ever had.
I don't know about the file type, but you can make a folder named notifications and put your file in there. If the file type works, it should pop up

In this post: http://www.androidforums.com/t-mobile-g1/1757-can-you-set-music-youve-uploaded-ringtone-texts.html They claim that if you add a folder called "notifications" on the root of your device, then any supported media file will be available to select. Try this and let us know if it works, sounds interesting.
that was exactly it.
put the notifications folder in /sdcard/ and it shows up in the list of notifications
awesome. thanks!

The problem is not how to set music as a ringtone on your phone, it can be done with the aid of a music player..., the problem is to assign a personal ringtone to a contact in phone more than 300kb
someone solved this problem?

I had no issue assigning any of my mp3 as an individual ringtone through contacts.

Thanks Aggror, I did that, but for some reason they still won't show. To set any of these, I had to open them in SE File Explorer use the "Set as Ringtone/Notification sound" option.

They should. They did properly in mine. Dunno what's the problem.
Wait....are these files flashable? Or do I have to extract them?

Hi,
can you refresh the link for the ringtones - the target has moved or been deleted. Thanks
Also can someone give file location for notification sounds and for ringtones in kitkat 4.4.2
Where can I copy the sounds to. I can't find the notifications folder for sounds on the phone.
Thanks
Ringtones link not working. Plz Update.

Ringtones showing up in Google music!

This is driving me crazy. Does anyone know how to get rid of the ringtones from Google music without deleting the files from my phone?? Thanks
What folder do you have them in on your Internal Storage?

I had them in ringtones. I tried moving them to notifications and it was of no help.
what file extension are you using for your ringtones?

In my experience, Android always ignored the Ringtones and Notifications folders as music. Maybe you just need to refresh Google Music. Go into the setting and try syncing it

Most of them are mp3 or wav. Just tried ogg to no avail. I moved them all back to ringtones from notifications and it actually shows more now...

if you have root, move them to /system/media/
Create a empty file with name ".nomedia" in the same folder as ringtones. It will be not shown in play music

no no.. dont just stick them into /system/media/, put them in the right category(ringtones, notifications, alarms..) within /system/media/.

To be more specific, its system/media/audio/notifications and system/media/audio/ringtones. And if you put them in there, I believe they NEED to be .ogg files. Change the permissions to match the others in those folders and reboot.
That is the ticket. Change the permissions.

I just go into play music and select "not interested" on the ringtones, and it takes them right out.

iOS incoming message sound for android? (S7)

Hi
Any way to apply the DING sound from iphone (dunno which iOS) of incoming messages as the notification sound on S7? (sms/whattsup/messenger etc.)
Thanks.
Yes, why not? Search this on Zedge
Add any sound you like, copy the mp3/wav to the phone and set it as notification, or use Zedge as above^^
