Hello quick question. I've been trying to figure why the notification sound I downloaded off zedge app does not stay set. Im using CM12.1
I have set it using the zedge app, I have set it using media storage or explorer app. On internal storage I created a notification folder which allows it to show up in list of sounds to set it. It may use the sound once or twice but then nothing, no sound.
Does anybody know what else can be done? Thank you

Using file manager..I use root browser..
Try and place the file in system/media/audio/notifications
That would be my best guess anyway

Open my files. Search for where you stored your ring tones. Then open this file. Press menu key select more, then select copy. Copy which tone you want. Then click paste here. Open media, then open audio, then open notifications and paste the selections there. You can then change you notification tones to the ones you selected by going through the sound and display settings. Hope this helps anyone who wants to change their notification tone to something other than what is set in the default menu of tones! You can also change the text notification tone after doing this. All this can be done without rooting your phone!
THANK YOU! I have been trying to figure that out since I got the phone 4 weeks ago.
It might be easier to just create a folder called Notifications on the root and put them there.

Or you can download "rings extended" from the market which changes your ringtone chooser module, thus enabling you to choose any mp3 song as ringtone/notification etc.
More good info, thank you.

The app ringdroid let's you choose an mp3 file and trim a certain part out of it. You can then save it as a notification tone or a ring tone. Then just go to your options and choose it out of the list it is what i do and it works perfectly

is there a good app for ringtone management? i use zedge to download all of my ringtones but for some it stopped showing the ringtones i downloaded in the app, so i created a ringtones and notifications folder on my sd card and started sorting them between the two folders is there a way to have zedge pick up all my ringtones i downloaded from it? or an app that will save me from sorting the ringtones between two directories?
I don't know of a ringtone management app. Most ringtone apps I have usually just create their own folder for content you download through the app. If I find/think if something I will post back!

Yea zedge creates a folder on your sdcard and stores ringtones/backgrounds but its not showing the ringtones stored there in the app.
Thanks.

Somebody help please.... i just got my inspire yesterday and i wanted a custom ringtone and notification so i used ringdroid to make them. But as soon as i turn the device off theyre gone. Whats the problem

not sure why its disappearing, but after you create them in Ringdroid, make sure its been saved to (using Astro or any file manager) sdcard\media\audio\ringtones (or notification if you made a notification).
If its saving in that directory, but not showing in your options - or not saving to that directory...then I'd try uninstalling Ringdroid and re-installing.
Another option would be just to download Zedge from the market and see if they have what your looking for...its an app with thousands of Ringtones, Wallpapers and Notification sounds.
Thanks. But what i did that helped was to download a htc sense ringtone and then moving the ringtones into the same folder as the htc one. They are staying now

Go to Settings-Sound-Phone ringtone, and change it from there.

Make a directory on your root SD card for your Nexus (I know it doesn't have an SD card, but plug in your phone to your PC using a USB Cable and from there turn on USB storage.
Once looking through the directories on your phone, create a folder called Media. Inside that, create a folder called ringtones and place your MP3 file in there. Your Nexus S should recognize this file as an MP3 and it will be selectable from your ringtones after you unplug your phone.
The same can be done for Alarms and Notifications.
For instance,
Media/Ringtones
Media/Notifications
Media/Alarms
When you unplug your Nexus S from your PC after you put files in the respective folders above, your Nexus S should recognize these files and you should be able to see them then next time you set a alert of some sort.
Hope that helps!

Excellent answer , sure that helps much.
Thanks
Found out that creating the Ringtones, Notifications, Alarms folders in the root of the SD card has the same effect. Might require a reboot too take effect.
You can also use an app called ringtone maker by big bang dev to edit and set ringtones.

A lot easier: Just download Zedge from the market. Will let you pick any song just anywhere.

Is the same methode of making a folder with "Media" name applies for a Wallpaper ?
I don't like the stock ICS wallpapers and I have a folder of the stock GB wallpapers on my PC.... How can I incorporate them with the stock ICS wallpapers ? is that possible ?
So, in the past I've put music files into a folder called Alarms and I can use them for my alarm sound. Yesterday I flashed stock 4.4.3 firmware onto my phone (I had been using CM11 for almost 2 months), and put an mp3 file onto the stock Alarms folder. However, I can't see that file in the choice list. Before this I was able to use custom sound as alarms and I am sure that I had placed the sound file into that alarms folder. Does any one have any suggestions?

I'd also like to know how this is done as well as setting a custom ringtone.

For the ringtone, put music files into the folder called Ringtones, on the sdcard, and then you can select them when you assign a ringtone to someone.
