Ringtone Problems - HTC EVO 3D

Okay so I have a feeling there is a simple fix bit I've tried everything I know on how to fix this. I have ringtones on my memory card that was working find on my Evo 4G and now that I have my 3D it will not let me set them as a ringtone. It doesn't even show up in the list of ringtones like it used too. I can play them in the file explorer that I have but it the option to apply as ringtones doesn't work. the files are .ogg

So you've discovered root sweet how did you do it?

Hey man, You're gonna wanna ask your question in the Q&A section. You're not gonna find the response you want here.

I thought we just had the same problem except the last on was about vibrations.

Yeah I know I didn't notice where i posted it until after i hit submit how do I move it.

My thought is that the Development forum is thought of as a technical questions forum as well/instead. I don't really know though.

no, the development section, in very broad terms, is more about furthering our phones capabilities via roots and roms. not really a place to ask questions, unless those questions relate relate to rooting or roms you are making. in general, if you're unsure, the q&a section is where you should go before here.

I really don't understand why some people have to act like this. Everybody has to learn somewhere and it's disappointing to see that some people make it difficult. Along with making pointless videos. If you think that this "noob" question is such a waste of space. Please almighty professional modder give me a solution to this problem.

Did you do the OTA update? And what did you do to get it working. I've had the same setup since my G1 and the ringtones have always been in the list.

The video is not pointless, if you watched it youd notice you broke an xda rule that's covered in the video. If you can't follow the simple rules, expect to get flamed.

Okay well like I said a few posts after I didn't realize I posted in the wrong forum and if you check Q&A I went there afterwards. So calm down and if this post bothers you so bad why don't you go stalk the other forums and attack all the other posts that should be elsewhere.

Get a file explorer like Astro and then create a folder on your sd card called "media" (no quotes). In that folder, create a folder called "ringtones" (no quotes) and put your custom ringtones in it. They should then show up in the list of available ringtones. Do the same for a "notifications" folder (no quotes).

Done that I have had that set up since I had my G1. I downloaded an app from the market that was a soundboard and when i hit apply my phone froze up and forceclosed. And it didn't apply.

I guess what I mean is, change your title to something like "System Sound File Repository" and request for people to submit their .oog files. Then if it gets a good following with many contributions, we can ask mmelo76 to sticky it.
This would be awesome. I created a tutorial way back on how to change the ui sound, and there were a bunch of ppl who uploaded their sound. Would be nice to have it stickied so ppl can continue to share

My God, it's not that hard to find one yourself. Just go to the Market and type in "mp3 download" and tons of nice apps that do pretty much the same thing will come up. I don't think you should ask unless you've looked and didn't find anything that worked.
I don't think jumping on him helped much here. If he is new to Android sometimes when you look for a particular type of app several pop up and you never know which one actually works best or has issues. Sometimes it's nice hearing from people that have tried apps before you download and waste time.
gtunes is pretty good

It's just like searching Google, or anything else. It's not hard and it doesn't matter if you are "new to Android" or not I don't think. If you type 'mp3 download' (a pretty common thing you would think to type if you want to download mp3s) on the Market, I literally just now did it, the first 8 things that come up will all work fine. It's just a matter of which one you like the best. It's an opinion and everyone has their own. For example: the guy above likes Gtunes while I hate it, and use MP3 Music Download Super. You have to learn to form your own opinions...so anyways, it has nothing to do with being new to Android, you just search like you do anything else, and LEARN on your own.
Im not new to android and I did search those up, however, I have no clue what else is on their servers where they get their music. Things could be infected, that's why I asked what you guys recommend.

Ahh...yea I don't get what the whole deal is with the whole Android getting viruses and everything...they aren't like computers, and the only way something could get on your phone and do something you don't want is through installing an apk file that you give the permissions to. No file other than .apk can be twined with a "virus" and "infect" your phone....I don't know why so many people think that.

If i'm using Astro, all I gotta do is copy the apk to the system folder & install then reboot??
Application fails to install.

Update: Installed now. Works. Not sure why it was not installing when I downloaded using the XDA app.

You do not need to put the apk in the system folder you can just install it from any folder just like you are install an app from the market, no reboot necessary.

I havent tried this app yet, but Im guessing you would just reset the defaults for the program. settings>applications>manage applications>search and tap on the app>scroll down and tap on clear defaults
Has anyone noticed the little equalizer next to the song stays on as the song is playing even when I stop the song I just wonder if this is eating up anyones battery.Also if I do decide to keep this one how can I go about deleting the old one I know it's something pulling the apk from astro but where do I find it at I'm really new to all this sorry.
It foes not overwrite the stock music app so just uninstall.

New Android Market (3.0.26)

That’s right, guys. Just download from your phone’s browser and install like a normal app. It’s currently working great on my Evo 3D although I’m not sure if this will work on phone’s equipped with Android 2.1 and lower (per Google) but I don’t think that will stop you from trying, right? Let us know if it works for you! Enjoy!
Oh — and if the new Market ISN’T your cup of tea or starts to act a little wonky, you can always go back to the old Market following these simple steps:
Go into your phone’s Settings
Select “Manage Applications”
Select the “All” tab at the top
Scroll down to Market app and select it
Select “Uninstall Updates”
Now have your old Market back!
