There was an app for the iPhone in cydia that allowed you to preview and download ringtones from audiko straight to the phone.
I was wondering if there was anybody that could make an app like that for android.
I would gladly buy the paid app or donate for a free app that has the following features.
1. Chose from the different versions of each ringtone.
2. Preview ringtone (stream it).
3. Download ringtone straight to either the phone or sdcard ringtone dir.
4. Once downloaded have the option to set the ringtone as default or assign to a contact download only from within the app.
5. An option to pick songs in the phones music library to trim into custom ringtone. Maybe even an option to upload the custom created ringtone to audiko.net
Thanks in advanced,
Rick
In the Setting Profiles app you can set certain apps to launch under given conditions which is great. I want to launch ³ music player when docked in the car but the problem is that select your app it uses a method where you start typing the name of the app and it matches it to your installed apps. With ³ I can't actualy type a ³ symbol and even if I copy and paste, it needs a couple of characters before it matches, so just the ³ doesn't seem to be enough!
Help
I'm having this problem and it is very frustrating. When I go to this site:
http://theblogof.rosscbrown.co.uk/2007/02/ctu-ringtone-from-24/
on my phone and try to donwload the first mp3 link, it decides to automagically stream the mp3 and play it.
Instead I want to save the file so i can use it as a ringtone. I have astro file manager and enabled the browser downloads, it doesn't help. I have used Download Crutch, and that didn't work either. At one point I had Winamp installed but all that did was give me a different option to stream the file.
I'm aware I can download the file on my PC and transfer it, but I want to avoid this. When I longpress on the link and save link, it starts to download some random *.bin file instead, which is nothing but a script to download the file.
It used to work fine until I updated to EE19 stock. This is a clean slate, I wanted to start fresh since I had performance issues before. How i change the behavior of mp3's? Seldom do I want to hear them, I'm usually clicking on them so i can save.
Thanks! Very frustrated as I can't seem to find a solution anywhere
If you long press the link does it give you the option to save it?
Try a different browser. xScope, Miren, Maxthon, Dolphin, all are great and have the ability to download media files instead of playing them.
I have tried Stock, Opera, Dolphin, and Firefox. Some open the media file in their own player, but none of them give me the option to save the file. I believe the link is a redirect to a download, so the link itself is to a script that serves the file. I want the behavior to happen when the file is being opened to automatically ask me to save it instead of play it.
The link to download the mp3 is actually pointing to...

So, as you can see it's not a mp3 file, but it results in that after the script points it to that. If I right click and save target as on my PC i get the mp3 file.

So do it on your PC and transfer it to your sd card.
Have you tried changing up the "user agent" settings in any of the browsers?
Tried editing the User Agent setting but it didn't change the behavior. I think opening an MP3 in a browser automatically triggers to stream the file instead of treating it like other files where you have the option to download them.
Need an app that acts as an MP3 file player but instead brings up a dialog to save it to sdcard.
I could have downloaded it on my PC and put it on the SD card (which I did) but the problem remains, if im laying in bed trying to do this, I do not want to get up and go turn my PC on just to download an MP3.
Thanks for all the help... I'll keep digging.
Try resetting the defaults in settings>applications>manage apps. When you open the file it should ask what you wanna use to complete the action. Choose browser and it should start downloading. This was the case with videos on certain sites. May work for this as well. Hope this helps

downloading music
I had the same issue, i downloaded the app called "downlad all files" then when I go to things in the stock browser and click on a file it will ask me to open up in browser and when it does it download the mp3 files automatically.
That is a godsend of an app. I will stand by that one any day of the week.

I really like the music player I got from F-Droid called Vanilla Music player. Then interface just makes sense to me. But it seems not to be recognized as a player by my Verizon GS3 ICS phone's OS. When I tell Dragon Mobile Assistant to play a song, I get a pop-up asking which player to use, with an option to set the choice as default. The original players from Samsung and Verizon are there, as well as a podcatcher I installed, but not the music player I like to use. Originally, I thought it might be because I side-loaded it through F-Droid, but I found the same one in the Play store and installed it, and the problem persists. Is there a way to force Android to recognize the player as a possible option for playing music so that I can select it as default? Or even a way to set it as default in the first place? I can use the settings in Application Manager in settings to remove apps from the list of possible default apps in the popup dialog to select the default, but I'm not sure how to add an app.
Thanks in advance!
Maybe clear cache for dragon? It might have cached what players were installed when you first ran it. Other than that I'm not sure. Reinstall dragon or there's something about the vanilla player that isn't coded properly in one of the 2 apps I'd think.

Bump, I have the same problem?
Hello, I have a new oneplus 6 as my first oneplus phone and I would like to ask you if there is better option to change ringtone instead of scrolling among plenty of music (I got about 800 songs) in the default chooser. Is there any option to choose directly a folder or even a music without scrolling as it is as default? I have tried choosing ringtone via poweramp but ringtone option is grey; unavailable.

I use an app called ringdroid. It has a search function and an easy to use interface to crop songs on internal storage for notification, calls and alarms. It saves them in your media folder.
Ok, so it means there is no option to do it by default and we have to use third-party app right?
U can select local ringtone and chose something from your playlist but there's not a built in program to crop your songs to make ringtones

It doesn't have a search function, but you can select to have only short media files selected. There's nothing built in though, unfortunately.
That's the lure of 1+.
Why put a bunch of apps in it that the majority will never use. If u want something, grab it out of the PS.
