i go into settings->system and click [add ring tone]
i switch the one i want and press ok
then i go into settings->personal and click [Phone]
and find the file under the Ring tone: dropdown box
you dont go into sounds and notifications to change ring tone

If the ringtone is a .mid file, or possibly even a .wav (others will confirm?), then you first need to choose the option to 'create ringtone' on the phone before it will appear in the Notifications listbox.
On the other hand, where some users get confused, is when they cannot find a .wma file, when going into the "create ringtone" option, for the simple reason that .wma ringtones don't NEED converting, and are already in the notifications list box, if you saved them in the right place.
So for .wavs, midis, and similar, you need to first choose the option on the phone to Create a ringtone.
But for .wma files, if you save in the right place, these will NOT be available in the covert list, and instead ALREADY in the sounds and notifications drop down list.

All I had to do was to copy them into the Windows/Rings folder. And they were listed along with the original ringtones.

ring tones

hi guys,
i just get my polaris today .. the problem is i could not set the ringtone + vibration .. when i set to ring tone, there is no vibration and when i set to vibration, then no ringtone ..
what should i do if i want ringtone + vibration and silent + vibration? .. tq ..

Goto
Settings -> Sound and messages -> Messages
In the events: select "Incoming call", should be way down.
Call tone -> Vibrate and call instead of "call tone" alone.
I got swedish language so I tried to translate as good as possible, hope it helps .)

or in the profiles screen tap the ring tone

No sound for Known Caller in WM 6.1

Hi
I got this weired problem with WM6.1 in my Treo750, Its not giving any sound for Known Caller, when I try to choose one from ring tones under Ring type for Phone:Known Caller is like Alarm, Alarm Flute etc. which was suppose to be Ring, Increase ring, Ring Once, Non.
If I try to change sound for any other like Missed call or Unknown caller then I am able to get that Ring, Increase ring, Ring Once and none but after I chose it doesnt save the detail. When I go back to the Ring type again it goes to Alarm, Alarm Flute only.
Does anybody have any idea why its acting like this or any solutions?
Thanks

Same issue here.

For my Troe with WM6.1, I've got the different problem.
At Sounds & Notification > Phone : Know Caller > Ring Type
It show many ringtones in the handset like in Ring Tone, not the options for Ring, Increase ring, Ring Once and none
If anyone know how to solve this problem, please kindly advise me.
Many Thanks.

I had the same issue
What I did was to select a different option first.
Such as Reminders or Active Sync.
Then I would go back and select Phone: Known Caller
The field then would not be greyed out and select Ring Type: Ring
and Select Ring Tone: "Your Choice"
This worked for me the 2 times I reloaded 6.1

This works for me but when i go back the ring tone is greyed our again. When a know caller calls the it only works once then i have to reset it again. I'm continuing to search for a solution. I'm not keen on having to go back to stock rogers 6.0

beginner's point of view
if u have downloaded ur 6.1 wm version from xda-developers
I think the problem is in the 6.1 "edited" version, when u remove the AT&T from the xda file.
if u've done that try to hard reset (or replace the edited file with the original one if u packed it before), and not remove at&t ringtone from the xda file.
hope i know what i am talking about here !!!!

If you want Mp3 ring tones with your file browser locate the song click and hold and select use as default ring tone.
Other option is to copy the ring tone to the corect folder where all other tones should be stored
