Sms:
All audio files. Mp3s must be put under Windows or My device\My Documents folder.
yeah bro i even tried creating my own rings and not working i converted them to .wav and even tried mp3 i cant see them in the box where we choose the rings and etc
Put files under "Windows" folder.
Don't use other folder inside it.
Very late answer but just copy sounds from folder and PASTE to storage card and you will finde them in Ring tone setings

1. What file types does the phone support
2. Where is it best to store them so that when I want to change my ring tone all available tones appear on the selection drop down list
3. Is there an editing tool I can use to create my own ring tones from the music files I have on my storage card
4. The available sounds to associate with receiving an SMS are not the same as those for the phone, why? and how can I add to them
1 as ring tones you can use wav, mid and wma
2 \windows\rings
3 i would do it on the pc doubt that there are many good audio editing programs for pocketpcs
4 sms and other nonring tone notifications only support wav and should display them in the dropdown list if places in \windows\
Thanks for all the help.
Obvious one, can I use any other folders such as those on my SD card
Fianlly, before I start putting files into the folder...I have just checked my Windows\Rings folder and it does not show any of the ringtones that appear in the listbox currently?
ie
fantasy
jig
mystic
The only one that appears is 02 phone.
you can if you edit the redestry but when the pda is off the sd is off and the gsm is on so when it rings it cant use any tones on your sd card
Thank You for the excellent advice.
I added some ringtones to my phone and I can't assign them to text messages. The songs only appear under incoming calls. How do I get them to show up under text messages and e-mail alerts and stuff like that?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Start>Settings>Sounds & Notifications>Notifications>Event>Messaging: New text message - then pick your sound (any ringtone that is in \Windows should show up)
Edit: Also any ringtone in \Storage Card\My Documents shows up for me also.
It doesn't show up under there...they only show up under incoming calls.
You need to store the ring tone in the \windows directory on your phone.
what format are the tones you put on?
The ringtones are in .mp3 format. I put them under /windows in the rings folder and they still do not show up.

Try putting them in \APPLICATION DATA\SOUNDS
This is where I have mine, and they always show up in the default lists that WM5 reads from.
I'm running WM6 and I have an AppData folder (no Application Data Folder) but there isn't a sounds folder in there. I tried making one but that didn't work either.
Anyone have an answer for this? It's bugging me pretty bad that I can't have my own text message alerts.
I just copied a SMALL mp3 file into the Windows directory in my Hermes, it WORKS, it allows me to choose the file for a text message alert. I just did it with a bigger file and it worked also (3 MB mp3 file).
What phone are you using? wm6 from who? Which rom?
how can I add an mp3 as a messagin new text tone or where are the folders of the message sounds..
anyone help please...!!!

Put it in your windows folder (on your phone)
does it have to be wav?
actually, i think it can be anywhere on the phone..i have mines on my Storage Card. and i see it in the drop down menu when i try and edit the ringtones.
2 place you can put the file: windows or root of memory card.
need not be in wav, mp3 also can
do not put it on your phone. put it in the root of your storage card. you'll be good to go.
or i think in a my documents folder on storage card. just so the root of storage card doesnt get all cluttery
but thats only for ringtones. for like text notifications it has to go into \windows
In the past, I've been putting them in \Storage Card\My Documents\My Ringtones
I have a Fuze, I've tried putting the MP3 into the \Windows, \Windows\Rings, \Application Data, the root of the storage card to no avail. I still can not make the MP3 that I want as the tone for when I receive a new text message. Now, from what I've read on here I should be able to put it in any one of those spots and then go to start>settings>sounds & notifications and choose "Event" as "Messaging: New Text message" and the MP3 should then appear in the drop down box right? Wrong. I can however choose it as a ring tone for incoming calls, which I do not want.
Can anyone show me how to do this correctly or point me in the right direction? I've searched and read, but I still can't get it to work correctly.
It's only been 12hrs, but thought I'd bump this. For the morning guys.
I did this by converting the .mp3 files to .wma and placing them in the Windows folder. After a phone reset, I selected the new tones for Incoming Call and New Text Message alert.
I usually convert them to .wav files then load it to the storage card, shows up in the list with no problem.
The reason I put my tone/ring files directly into the Windows folder is that I read somewhere in the forums that placing the ringtone file on the storage card may contribute a delayed ring (for incoming calls) as the dialer accesses the ringtone from storage - which is what I had been experiencing.
After following that advice (and other tips supplied in the forum), I have notice a reduced delay between the first evidences of an incoming call and the start of ringing.
try putting them here:
application data\sounds
no need for a reset.
I do mines in this folder.
My Device > My Documents > My Ringtones
So I guess the problem is that for some reason my phone didn't recognize the 2 Mp3 files that I was trying to use and I couldn't convert them to WMA on my laptop. I found them as WMA (thank you google), put them in \Application Data\Sounds and it works flawlessly now. Thanks for the help.

BOTH TIMES!
Cool. Did that and it works!
What about Alarm Clock tones? Anyone know what folder mp3s have to be in?
Hey all,
1. Just got a Fuze a few days ago. I was able to get it to recognize my own ringtones, but I don't see them when I look at the menu for notifications such as text messages, emails, etc. Does anyone happen to know how I get my ringtones to come up on that drop down menu? I'm sure it's just a question of putting things in the right folder.
2. Is there a registry editor that works well on a Fuze? On my Q I used to use RegEditSTG. Will that still work?
Thanks guys!
for the msgs and stuff they get the rings from the windows folder.
Rings folder
It happened to be that ALL ringtones, alarms & alert tones are duplicated under the "Rings" folder which of course eats up some space out of your memory and I do not understand why have they done this if the default is "Windows" folder?!

I don't know about getting your old ringtones to work, but if you ever you need new ones, I suggest MP3 trimmer. You can drag and drop whatever songs you would like to change to a ringtone onto your fuze, open the song with MP3 trimmer, and choose the start/stop times. It will then save that file as a proper ringtone, in the proper file.

Yes, Total Commander, it's very intuitive.
I want to remove the standard SMS ringtone for my AT&T Tilt. What part of the OS do I go to to change this? I have transferred the file already to the "My Documents" Folder but can't seem to find a place to update the tone. The actual ringtone for phone calls was easily found and changed...
Help

Try dropping it into your /windows folder and then set it in sounds and notifications
Also needs to be a .wav , mp3's won't work as sms tones.
ahhh thats why Denco...I had it as an mp3....thanks bud
