Hi guys!
Just wondering how to change the sound which is played when a sms comes in ( or email or calendar and so on) to one of my own mp3 sounds ( not just a sound preinstalled with the phone from that list in the sound settings)

So how was it solved?
Apologies, answer was in this thread:

And you can use mp3's for notifications, just enable SD card notifications, place your file in the sdcard/media/audio/notifications directory then bounce (reboot) your phone.
Create the directory if you don't already have it. Other useful directories are /alarms and /notifications.

Go to Settings --> Sound & Notification --> Notification Tab --> Messaging: New text message

i want to know if there is anyway that you can put a mp3 as ringtone or a wav file or something plaese help thanks
i use ringo mobile for that. wav, mp3, aac, ogg, wma ... no problem for ringo making as ringtone or sms... i manage my ringtone groups with ringo. thats more comfortable =)
just copy any mp3,wma in the windows directory and then select it from settings>>sounds and notifications>>notifications, then choose event and assign a sound

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If I am not mistaken, I think that only wav works for SMS. mp3 or wma works for incoming calls only
Here are mine if you are looking for some "inspirations"
well if you ever saw the movie eurotrip, you may enjoy this .wav/.mp3 file
enjoy lol
EDIT: I have a .wav for an alert tone, and .mp3 for my ringtone (not this mp3 but something else)...and everything is on my SD card (in the root directory, never tried hiding it in a folder)
EDIT SQUARED: I uploaded another .zip file, it has two mp3 ringtones that i use, my email notification noise, and two other .wav files (the old and new SNCF tone)
Hi!
The HTC S740 manual says that you can use mp3 as ringtone, but not as SMS, alert or else. How can that be real? If a phone can use mp3 as ringtone, it can not be an issue to use it as sms or alert. Any workarounds for this?
Thanks

I solved the problem myself. You have to put the mp3 on the root folder on the phone or SD card, then you can choose it as sms or alert.
Hello all. I am using a Huawei U8500 with CyanogenMod 7 (2.3.5-Slax-SP10-3) and have been having an issue with ringtones/notification/UI/unlock (a.k.a. all) sounds. Before, none of the sounds (except Music) would work on CM7, but I figured that out. It was the sound profiles that were overriding all my other attempts at resetting volumes.
However, while my sounds were disabled, I used the Music app to set a song as a ringtone to see if the sounds would work again. Now that I have solved the issue with the volumes, every single one of the sounds (again, except music) are replaced with the song that I set as my ringtone. When I go to Settings>Sound and try and select a new sound, all the previews of the sounds are even of that song. I checked the .ogg files in /system/media/audio and they still play the correct sound.
Now for the questions:
-Has anyone encountered this issue or something similar?
-If not, how does Android handle setting a song as a ringtone?
-Does it put the .mp3 file somewhere on the root phone storage? (If so, I could just delete or rename it and hope for the best.)
-Or, does it simply reference the .mp3 file on the SD? (If so, I could rename it so that it wouldn't be able to fetch it.)
Thank you very much for any help!
Maybe I searched the wrong keywords...
I can't seem to set an Mp3 as my ringtone as I just recently flashed:

Any ideas?
EDIT: Turns out you have to put the mp3's you want into folder on your SD card named "ringtones" and it'll show up on the list. Alternatively download ringdroid
Hi there,
Does someone know where i can find the notification sounds and how to replace them with my own recorded sounds ?
When i connect the phone to my pc and go to the main storage, i can't find ANY sound files at all.....
I dont like the standard notifications like "postman" for my mail. I want to replace the sounds......

Root required ..
System Media Audio Notifications
Format is OGG .

as far as i know you don't need root.
make directory in SD card called "media"
inside media directory make a "audio" directory.
inside audio make 2 more folders: "notifications" and "ringtones"
put notifications in notification folder and ringtones in ringtone folder. format can be mp3,wav,mp4,ogg,etc. default system notifications should get sounds from the "notifications" folder.
It worked.
Thnx all
