you can put your ringtone files in /Windows.. then go to start/settings/sounds¬ifications/notifications/
choose which event you'd like to change and viola

Its great, except this is the questions and answers section, saying google it (without even a proper answer in the list) doesn't necessarily get the job done.
"set ringtone ppc" does the job proper. Everyone knows where google is, they probably used it to find this site. The Purpose of the q&a section is not to promote google traffic. If you are going to refer someone somewhere, please make sure you refering them to exactly the right place.

I wasn't planning on using it in the Q&A Section of course -
Being a team player!
But it will be fun to use in other cases sometimes. I will of course change the auto google search to be relavant to the topic of discussion and make sure that it directs to helpful links. All in fun

I know with my device - Audio Manager has the feature to set MP3 as ringtone.
You can follwo advice above also - . I suggest using a trimmer program to cut the MP3 to save space on your device though.
Another cool app you might want to take a look at for MP3 ring tones is the mp3 ringtone randomizer found at this link here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=370527
just direct the program to the specified folder with your mp3 ringtones and it will automatically randomize your ringtone for each call. I love this.

Sorry, just trying to be funny, but the first link in the list tells him how to set an MP3 as a ring tone, and the second link in the list tells them how to set a message alert. First two links answered both his questions. What could be better than that ?
This is question and answers, but even so, come on . That is Cell phone 101 , read the manual, do a site search ( I have seen that question a hundred times ) make an effort. In some countries they prohibit you from ever owning a PDA again, for those questions.
Just , seriously, for clarification, are those the types of questions that Q & A forum is for ?
Yup - Any and every member needs to feel that they can ask any question - no matter what - even extreem "Noob" questions in the Q&A section without being flammed. It is asked that every member respect this and if answering a question in the Q&A Section that you don't just say "Search" or "Read the WIKI" but at least provide links to WIKI if you are referring to this. I personally don't see the harm in the link you provided "although funny" serves two purposes. You didn't flame the OP for asking silly question but provided a useful (and funny) link that pointed him in the right direction to answer his question and aslo made a statement that a simple search would have answered the question. I see no harm in that either as there are a lot of people who do not take the time to search for themselves or they just don't know what keywords to use in the search field. (You also provided hints on what kind of search words to use) When I answer questions in the Q&A Section, I Provide links to where they can find their answer to their question or just sometimes answer it right there it it is an easy question; however, after answering I sometimes point out that searching using certain keywords would have yielded results (I like your way better) There are a lot of questions asked that seem rather simple and "Noobish" to us, but to beginner's they need to be shown how to properly use this forum sometimes and I think that the Q&A section is a wonderful thing for everyone because, there is so much to learn and it can be very overwhelming especially for new commers.
This should work for you...
Following the raptious support and humiliation ive suffered, i guess i can only blame myself for not only including what phone i have (htc touch hd) but more so not taking the time to research such questions properly!
Unfortunately i havent had 5 mins to myself to play with all areas of the phone, but now ive managed to sort the ringtone situation out, aided by the mp3 trimmer!
I guess its easy for those high up on knowledge to look down and laugh when you dont know jack, but hey done now, although saying that, i cant find where i can possibly delete some of the ringtones/beeps that come as standard, maybe someone could help me out there? again would be appreciated.

Firstly, have a sense of humor dude, or you won't last very long here
Secondly, find those files in your ringtone folder with file explorer, or in your windows folder, file explorer>my device>windows your files will be in there.
I did laugh at some of the replies mate dont worry, and thank you for your help though, i did try deleting the tones but kept coming up "error deleting file" so i cant delete anyway but thanx

The " base " ringtones that come with the rom, are written into the rom and cannot be deleted. All other tone and notifications can be added and deleted anytime.
alright cheers, but i set couple songs to be ringtones, ive since deleted them from windows media library and on file explorer on the phone, but still they show up as available to choose as a tone????
Yes but did you delete them from the /windows folder, that is where they are played from.
Then Soft reset.
yep i did that, and still there available to choose as tones!
ive been running a TW based ROM on my S5 since i got it and i just love the camera app. That being said, ive been running an AOSP ROM that a good friend of mine developed and i would love to get the quality of the stock TW camera app in an AOSP environment. Ive dealt with some paid apps that just dont deliver. Any suggestions?

Hello there again, guys!
What are some of the best bassboosters and equalizers you've used that works with Spotify LOCAL FILES, and are also compatible to run together with others BB/EQs? I'm using NoozXoide, and it's pretty good, but I also wanted to have some more bass (that's what happens once you go V4A), and specially, have some more control over equalization... I've tried quite a few apps, but almost none of them work with LOCAL FILES from SPOTIFY.

My phone will arrive tomorrow... I ordered in India so maybe I will receive the global version... Do I need to switch to Chinese firmware? I mean what's the difference

It depends on what you need
Global ROM has gaming mode but it's mostly stock android
China ROM is themed quite a bit (themes custom launcher etc) but it has stuff like gestures however it's missing Google play store so it really depends on what you want I'd you don't need Google play and you want gestures etc China if you want stock like android and play store go global ROM simple as that
Thought y'all would find this interesting. So you know all those apps on the Play Store promising to securely hide your files from prying eyes? While some of them are really good (one even claiming to support TrueCrypt data stores), I've found that most of the popular ones use rather lacking methods of protection. While this might not come as a surprise to most of you, I feel like we should raise awareness to things like this. I took a look at a rather popular one of these called "GalleryVault" (or "Gallery Vault", they can't seem to decide on the spelling for their name) which has over 10 million downloads, boasts security in it's listing, and I hear being recommended all the time.
Turns out, their fancy encryption is a few static DES keys, an MD5 hash concatenated with a SHA hash for storing the pin code (to make it look scary i guess?), oh and hiding the "encrypted" files inside PNG's. Best part is, you don't even need to be root to access the app's data, cause it conveniently copies it's private data folder to the sdcard for ya.
It seems like they went out of their way to make it as insecure as possible, which seems to be a common trend among these sorts of apps. It sucks because there are apps which do a decent job at protecting the user's data, but they don't get as much attention with apps like Gallery Vault stealing the show. I wrote a blog post going into more detail and an app that can crack the pin code for Gallery Vault, which you can find here: Mod Edit :- Links Removed
