Can you add your own notification sounds, and if so, where do they go ?
And what format ?
Thanks .......
Nevermind, found it ........
I'm in the same boat. I know where the menu option is for changing notifications, but none of my personal audio files are on the list. I do have mp3s and wavs in a "ringtones" directory of the sd and they do show up as choices for changing ringtones but not notifications.
If you "found it" can you please post the location and format information for notification tones.

Personalizing notification tones for specific applications is usually done through the application. For example; if you want a different notification for text messages then go to your text messaging application and use the menu to change options within the application.
You can go as far as to set a different notification for each email account. You must go to the desired account and access the settings menu for that specific account. From there you can change the notification sound.
Settings -> Sound & Display -> Notification ringtone
These can be in mp3 format. I personally use the Ringdroid app to create them.
if you're asking where the files should be placed on your phone, I put all mine in "/sdcard/media/audio" and there are specific spots for "alarms" "notifications" and "ringtones"

Thank you so much, i wasnt has that path on my phone, so i´ve create it now and i really have my custom tones on my notification menu sounds.
Hi
I asked this question previously on the Q&A section with no luck, so I guess it is not possible yet, as I have asked about and tested several calendar apps.
What I would like is a calendar app where you can change the notification sound for each calendar event, so I get the oppotunity to select a custom sound for each event (e.g. the stock notification sounds or some I have transfered to the phone myself).
It would also be nice if You could preconfigure categories to have different notification sounds. e.g., I have a category called family, school, and so on. Then I would like to set a sound for each category.
Dont know if it is possible, but I would be glad if it was, and someone is up for it
Thanks in advance
i installed cm6. i cant find any guide anywhere on how to add custom ringtones and custom wallpaper to cm6 on the g1. how do you do it? what types of files are recognized? in what folder do i put them? the cyanogenmod wiki shows how to install cm6 but doesnt explain how to do such basic things. how do you do this on cm6? thanks
first of all try to post your questions in the q&a section.
what purpose are you trying to add ringtones and wallpapers, is this for your own rom development? do you want these saved into the system files?
if you just want more useable ringtones and wall papers there are tons of apps that give you this just fine, zedge for example has lots.
i know you said custom, there are apps in the market for this too, mp3ringtone or something like that.
or real easy just put a folder on your sd card named ringtones, one notifications, and one wallpappers --
make sure you have the files in the right format and put them in there
1. what format do the ringtones and wallpapers have to be?
2. do i just create 2 folders 1 called ringtones and the other called wallpaper? where do i place them in the sd card? root of the card?
thanks in advance
wallpaper .jpg is fine, others should work
ringtones .mp3 - again others probably work
put on the root of the sd card, yes name the folders wallpapers and ringtones
your os should put them in place like when you go into settings>sounds>ringtones it should show up. if not they are still accessible once on your phone and you can set them. such as when you go into wallpaper you can pick from your gallery to set wallpaper or contact icon.
if you want to incorporate these into the rom your running that takes a bit more effort
well maybe not too much, i think you can use root explorer (or other file managers) to add directly into the proper place in your os, i know you can go into system>fonts then add font choices
im not in front of my g1 right now but if you want to do it this way im sure a little exploring on your own will give you the answer
i put a jpeg image in several folders on my sd card. i go to the phone clikc settings wallpaper, then gallery, it doesnt show up in gallery. i then click file manager and find my jpeg. i click on it and it sends me back to the previous menu. ??????? did cyanogen make it so you cant use custom wallpapers???? your forced to use his choices? the same for ringtones. i cant even get my mp3 to be listed with cyanogens ringtones. this is such a simple task on all my other phones. but with this custom firmware i have no idea how to do this.
put the .mp3 into a folder named ringtones. put that folder on the root of your sd card. this should work fine ive done it on many roms including cyanogen based ones. if not you can download an app from the market that will do custom ringtones for you.
as for images, yes they can be used as wallpaper, hell if you take a picture with camera on your phone it can be used as wallpaper.

i did that. the dumb software doesnt work. i made a folder called ringtones put it in root of sd and put an mp3 in it. i go to sound and ringtones and its NOT on the list. i made a folder called wallpapers and put in a jpeg. then i go to home and click settings then wallpaper then there are 3 choices: cyanogen wallpaper its not in there. then i click gallery. it asks do i want gallery or file manager. i click gallery. it takes me to a screen with a frozen pic that doesnt change or let me choose anything. on the upper right is a camera buton. i click it and takes me to camera but i cannot even choose photos ive taken for wallpaper. then i click on file manager i find my jpeg and i click on it. it takes me back to choosing gallery or file manager. WTF???? you cant use a custom wallpaper or ringtone with this cyanogen software? did he do this on purpose to force you to use his wallpapers and ringtones. how the hell do i use a custom jpeg as a wallpaper or custom mp3 as ringtone????? nothing you said is working and there are no guides, not even on cyanogenmods wiki. all ive found is guides for the stock OS. none for this custom cm6 firmware

Calm down first of all.
It's not on the wiki because it's a general android question, not specifically cm6
Try the file manager way.
im thinking your problem is not cm6, i think its an error in your flash of the rom. something is corrupt. there shouldnt be any issues, if you are willing to reflash your rom. if you are fed up flash a new rom all together, cm6 worked poorly for me and i got rid of it a long time ago. but it did let me choose custom ringtones and wallpapers i remember that specifically (had a wallpaper of my girlfriend) so be patient, try the fixing it with the file manager or just reflash or choose another rom. try not to get too upset here
Hi,
what you need is a folder media in the root of your sd-card. Under media create folders audio and resource. Under audio create the folders alarms, notifications and ringtones. Put wallpapers into resource, alarms in audio\alarms, notification in audio\notifications and ringtones in audio\ringtones. That's it!
Does anyone have the custom notifcation tones from all the wp oems? I'm on a custom titan rom by nhathoa and put my supermario tones as well as the nokia tones that are already there, but i do grow weary of them as well, has anyone created anymore custom tones for email text etc and would like to share them or has all the OEMs tones too that could be dumped into a chevronwp7 ringtone xap?
I would be interested in the tones for personal use myself. Although I wonder if ripping and *sharing* would be considered a morally grey area?
Maybe instructions on how to accomplish this for yourself would be more appropriate?
Does anyone know what ringtones and wallpaper are on this device?
Has the "Grande Valse" ringtone been updated?

Nokia Tune is essentially the same as the 2018 version played here:
Stock wallpapers are here: https://www.techmesto.com/download-nokia-8-3-stock-wallpapers/
I haven't had a Nokia since 2016 so I'm not familiar with any of the more recent models but ringtones and notifications are named after Greek "stuff" (Tethys, pyxis, titan, etc.) along with a dozen "Nokia" ringtones and "Nokia Message" notification sounds, alarm sounds are mostly elements (oxygen, helium, argon, etc.) with "Timer" and "Nokia Alarm_Clock" (which sounds vaguely familiar but has definitely been updated since my n75/e72/Lumia days).
It's still very easy to add ringtones and sounds, too.
