I've used Ringtone manager to create and deploy WMA files as new ringtones. If I want to create and deploy new alarm sounds to my phone, does this tool still work? If yes, which format should I use (midi? wav?)?
Thanks,
I think, use xboxmod xap maker and make the tones..copy paste them in windows folder using touch explorer and y are there to go, can set alarm custom tones..
thanks hdubli, I am using a non-HTC phone, so I am afraid touch explorer doesn't work.
Does someone know the format used as alarm sound?
While this is a very interesting issue, this doesn't necessarily contribute to development. I will move this thread to general where it is better suited.

Hi all, I'm new to this forum and also new to my smart phone. I have an HTC Elf 0300. I'm trying to assign a sound to Notification/ MMS downloaded. I've looked at the existing sounds available and tried to find the folder they're in via ActiveSync to no avail. I've converted the mp3 I want to use to .amr and put it in the My Ringtones and My Voices folders. I can access the amr file if I want to change the ringtone notification but not for the MMS downloaded. I can only assume that one can't use anything other than what came with the phone. If you know different, please advise, many thanks.

Put your tones in the main windows folder, you will see that many of the tones already available to you are in wav/wma format.

or a simple way, without using a program...just convert any mp3 somg that you like into wav files and after that you copy it into windows files.
Yes and one file MP3 -3mb transformed to wav 40 mb

It's no need to convert it in wav.Mp3 format is also fine: just copy it in windows folder.

G-Alarm
The application that i like to use on my TG01 is G-alarm. I think i got it off the marketplace.
anyway you pay £5 one time only and then its yours, ive also managed to re-install it onto other phones i have using my key.
this is by far the best alarm which you can set to ask you upto 16 questions to switch it off
just a good idea so you dont go back to sleep or forget
and just to add to this, referring back to your mp3s, G-alarm will be able to use them as long as they are saved onto your SD card!
I hope this is the right area to ask, and i apologize if not.
I just went from 1.5 (Magic) to 2.2 (Desire) and man, the first thing i noticed is how crappy the Froyo ringtones are! I really want my regular old 1.5 ringtones, but im not sure where to look.
Is there a 1.5 ringtone dump anywhere? Or can i download them from somewhere?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548432
These appear to be from the Hero rather than the Magic, but would they be what you're after?
Posted from my HD2 via XDA app.
Yea those are the ring tones, thanks!
But android 1.5 (and possible above) was weird, in that the default ringtones could only be selected by choosing default. therefore, the ringtone im looking for isnt in that group
can anyone help?
if you're asking how to get them to work on your phone all you have to do is make a folder called media on your sdcard. In the media folder make another folder called audio and place yet another folder called ringtones and notifications. just place your ringtones and notification sounds in their respective folders.

No that i know how to do.
Im asking for the default ringtones from android 1.5 Apparently, theyre not stored in /system/media. In that directory are all the optional ringtones.
When selecting ringtones, you can choose from the list, or select default. The default ringtone is NOT found on that list and therefore NOT in system/media as far as I know
Anyone know whaat I'm talking about here? Lol

I hope that's what you were looking for?!
When I want to change my ring tones, the list of apps that pop up to handle the ringtones is the "android system", "handcent" and "zedge". Neither shows me a list of all audio files, which include my ringtones. The option of media player or something to that effect, did populate the list and did allow me to browse media files. What I am looking for is a way to modify that pop up list to add media player to it, as it is right now, I'm limited to the os's option of media files.
The xda search app doesn't seem to handle search queries very well, or perhaps I do not know how to use the search function. But my results were not even close to being relevant.

Not really looked much but i think some people had to put the custom ringtones in the system folder were the default ones are, don't know were that is, but that was right after the phone came out.
You could always try a market app like ringdroid or something should work
I dont know if this is what you are looking for, but if you use an external sd card, the best way to do custom ringtones is to create two folders on the ext sd card - one called ringtones, and one called notifications. any mp3 or sound files that go into those folders will show up in the list of files when you try to change ringtones and notification tones. and the file sizr doesn't matter. I use full mp3 files for my ringtones.

Put ringotones in''ringtones'' folder

Copy your custom ringtone mp3 to sdcard/media/audio/ringtones directory. Once the sdcard is scanned for media, the file will appear in your available ringtone list.

I stumbled on this thread/post after searching on the internet. The above solution that you have mentioned did not work for me. I do not have a ringtones folder under sdcard/media/audio directory,just the notifications folder. I copied my ringtones files to this notifications folder and restarted the phone. That did not work. Next I created a ringtone folder under sdcard/media/audio and pasted the tones under this folder.
I restarted the phone again and checked... that also did not work.
Am I missing something here? Please help.

I create my own ringtones in the .ogg format rather than MP3s. Then, I place them in /system/media/audio/ringtones or /system/media/audio/notifications, change permissions to rw-r--r--, change owner and group to 0-root and reboot. It has worked for me every time. I also remove all the existing ringtones and notifications because I never use them, but I don't think that's necessary to make it work.

Why guys do so much work to put it in ringtones folder.
Just open any mp3 or any ringtone in music player press menu key and there is option set as ringtone.... Simple

Personal preference. You like your way, I like mine. It's not all that much work and doesn't really take much time. Also, when my phone is connected to my PC, the ringtones are still usable since they aren't on the SD card.
