Use songs as ringtone? - TG01 General

Is it possible to have a song or sound effect as my ringtone or message tone?

---

Yes, it is: put the wanted (edited) .mp3-wav in windows file and choose it from phone-menu-settings for ringtone(somehow simillar for message tone).

---

as above said put your mp3 ect in windows sound folder
for ringtone - you can use anything as it will stop wen u answer
for text - you need to edit lenght of song as it will play it all even if you click read text, so make something thats like 3 seconds

whre is the windows folder pal>?

Use start/file explorer/windows...
Throw in your desired mp3/wav(recommended) file and you would be able to find it in phone/settings.

---

heers mate, You have a tg01 too?
Any apps you can reccomend? there all expensive on the windows app centre. Wanting a twitter one ect for free
Also can i use SPB on it? Mine is running wm 6.5

---

Yeah, tg01,mate...
You can use spb shell 3.5, don,t worry about...
Look out on ppc*arez for all kind of apps...

---

Or use Ringo (it allows you to alter your text message sounds too).

tried that on WM6.5 - for sms it works, for phone rings not.
it only displays 5 default ringtones
have you guys actually tried (and succeeded) that?

---

Or try to put your desired mp3(or whatever) in windows/rings folder, it's workinng...
Pe bunee...

---

Or just put it in "\Storage Card\My Documents\My Ringtones" (create the folders if they don't exist) then goto "Start > Settings > Sounds & Notifications", select the "Notifications" tab and select your ringtone and message tone from there.

---

My question stays: did any of you tried that on a WM 6.5 TG01?
I did - it did not work for me; from your answers I have the feeling (I must confess) that you did not try that

---

Yes. I have a TG01 with WM6.5 pre-installed. I created an mp3 ringtone and put it in "\Storage Card\My Documents\My Ringtones". I went to "Start > Settings > Sounds & Notifications", selected the "Notifications" tab, and used the combo boxes to select my mp3 as the main ringtone. My ringtone appeared in the list no problems.

sorry dupe post

many thanks for bearing with me through this hard (for me) task
after little experience and trial on my own (this is my very first WM device) I managed to put them in \windows\Rings - this works fine.
but, if you are saying that you can put them on the Storage card, I would rather go your way to save space on the phone (my mp3 are quite large)...
now the next logical step is to have different rings for different contacts - there is no indication how to do this...and YES I have read the whole user manual

The way I know:
in every contact you have when you open it (tap one, tap twice on name) you'll see the row Ring tone: tap on it and select your prefferred ringtone.
I don't know for specific sms tone for each contact: never crossed my mind??!!
