is there a way to;
A) change the actual volume of the alert (I know about turning vol up/down) but what I want here is a louder alert when I recieve a message.
B) can I download new wav files to add to the default ones with myxda2i?
B1) if the above is answered yes, can you advise how I install them please?
Thanks
Pete
I would like to add to this.
I have downloaded .wav files and copied them into the windows directory, but when I go to listen to them in the sounds and notifications section they don't play, this has happened to all .wav files apart from one so far.
Look for the Nokia sms sound file uploaded somewhere in this forum. it works on my imate pocket pc and is loud.

I've also noticed that many wav files are some how encoded in mp3. So they have a file ext of .wav but ppc will only play pure wav files. If you switch the file ext on the wav's that do not play to .mp3 they will sudenly play in windows media player. this will tel you that it is not pure wav encoding.
if you choose properies of the wav file on the pc
it should ms ad pcm as format then it's a pure bred

The OS needs WMP for ringtone (mp3, wma, aac, etc.) to work. And since it was deleted (and probably all registry related to it) then you need to make a "fix" for it (in a simple word, thought it's not that simple).
I'd like to help you to make that "fix" (and hope it will works) but currently I'm so far away from home. Or you can search tutorial for building custom rom, find & download a rom kitchen, and try to build your own rom.
HI!
Thanks
you can change ringtones in file explorer as normal "set as ringtone", but only WAV is supported

Hello everyone, I hope this post is in the correct forum.
I Googled extensively about applying custom MP3's as ringtones and have read conflicting answers. I have created a folder called ringtones on the sd card but the mp3's do not show up as options when trying to change the ringtone. And if someone else has posted about this, I apologize. Thanks
put your ringtones in media/audio/ringtones on the sdcard, the internal one
That's where my ringtones are I have them on my sd card I made a fokder called.ringtones also for videos and pictures idk why it won't work for you but try putting them on the internal memory

Sent from my Samsung Infuse 4G
EDIT:
Here is the Touchwiz music player that allows you to set mp3's as ringtones with out putting your music in a ringtone file...

Put the MP3s in a folder called "ringtone" on either your internal or external SD. No additional apps needed.
Thanks everyone. I will try each suggestion and post back with results.
Cheers
Sorry for the tardiness of this reply. Thank you Hoofadoo, your suggestion worked. They now show when I want to select a custom ringtone. And BTW, my mp3 ringtones are all over 300kb so for me it seems to be working.
Thanks everyone,

Know this is an older thread but wanted to post what worked for me.
I have the Infuse 2.3.6 running Vagabond ROM 3.2 by Qkster.
I was able to get the mp3 ringtones to load by placing them in a folder "ringtones" on the externalsd.
I have stock rom and have never had a problem setting mp3 files as ringtones... I just open in music player and hit menu then set as ringtone
If you have media scanner running on every boot (typical scenario):
1. Copy the mp3 into a folder called "ringtones" on internal or external SD
2. Go to settings --> Sound and set the mp3 as ring tone
If you have media scanner disabled (like me):
1. Enable media scanner
2. Copy the mp3 into /system/media/ringtones
3. Reboot
4. Go to settings --> Sound and set the mp3 as ring tone
5. Disable the media scanner
6. (Optional) Reboot and verify if the ringtone is still there
I have been using the second method since my Captivate days and have used it on many many ROMs, and it worked on every ROM.
Hoping someone can help me get my head around using these .nomedia files for audio in ICS - I have a bunch of ringtones etc. sitting in the media/audio/.. folders with a .nomedia file at the top level so these audio files don't show up in my music player, but by having that file there, I can no longer set them as my ringtone/alarm/notification. How can I have audio files show up in the sound choosers, but not the music app?

I'm not sure if this will be applicable to you. In my phone, all the ringtones are stored in the folder /sdcard/ringtones and these ringtones won't get read by the music app that I'm using, which my case is Google's Music Player. My songs are all stored in the folder /sdcard/music, the songs in it show up in the music app.
Thanks wlteh, I'll give that a try and see how it goes I'd read somewhere that additional ringtones were supposed to go in the /sdcard/media/audio/.. folder, but maybe that changed with ICS?
Do you have separate folders for ringtones, alarms, notifications in the /sdcard/ringtones folder?
Ciao,
i've found and solve a ringtones issue on tuttoandroid.net forum, so i want to share this with anyone;
NOTE: despite the old nexus4, the nexus 5 does not like mp3 files; copy in the folder RINGTONES/ALARMS only .ogg files if you don't want to lose 1/10 call!
You can check this issue by copying an mp3 file and trying to tapping continously on preview in the list of ringtones to ear: mp3 will fail preview sometimes, despite .ogg files won't ever fail.
Try to convert your mp3 --> .ogg online of by some audio-converter
I hope give you help with anyone Bye Bye
