Hello how can I extend the sounds offer of builtin sound selector by own sounds?
For ringtones copying to /sdcard/ringtones or /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones is working pretty fine, but for SMSs and various notifications the offer is still limited to builtin sounds only. Don't know where should I copy my own sounds so they could be covered in that file listing,
Both /system/media/audio/notifications and /mnt/sdcard/media/audio/notifications don't make any recognition (
As an alternative to this I'd accept an 3rd party audio picker able to browse any sdcard locations and select any of supported formats. The condition however is so that it could play a sound immediately after selecting just like builtin picker does...THX
Go settings sound and puck notification ringtone when its open nitification sounds just press a little icon in upper right corner

I am fed up with stock x10 ringtones. Is there any way to use my own ring/alarm tones? Thanks
Of course, I use kiss ringtones from the market, a lot of beautiful tones you can download and directly set as ringtone or assign to a contact. Also you can download zedge, which is basically the same....
News ringtone made an app called ringtone player which you also can choose from your own music, don't know how it works, didn't try it as I am very happy with kiss ringtones

If you wont to use your own mp3s as a ring tone just download astro file manager. Find your music folder open it choose a song long press it you will get a pop called file opions choose music option then set as ring tone
Or just open the music file in mediascape then press the menu( left most hard key) button and select use as ringtone.

Create a folder on your sd card called audio. Create four new folders within that labelled...
alarms
music
notifications
ringtones
...any tones you put in the three tone folders will show up in the appropriate choice window, so any tones in alarms will show up when wanting to change the alarm tone, and so on.
Will test that too, didn't know, thanks for the advice. Cheers

I use an apparently called Ringo lite, put your mp3's in a folder called ringtones on ya sd card, you can then add them as ringtones or message tones, it even lets you assign different ringtones/message tones for each of your contacts

Hi all,
Just wanted to know how i can change incoming system sounds now my phone has been rooted
1) I want to be able to change SMS, Email, Alarm?
2) Wanted to know were to store/place ringtone files?
3) Does anyone know if the standard alarm have a snooze function?
After the above i want to change to custom icons

The alarm clock has snooze by default.
For my ringtones etc, I have a folder on my SD named Media and sub folders marked notifications, ringtones, alarms, wallpapers. The phone seems to be able to make sense of this and shows the alarms in the alarm clock etc.
To change ringtones etc you go into the app and press the menu button. You should be able to change the tones etc in there.
For changing ringtones and sms tones, you go into settings. (on your home screen press menu) go to Audio (or Sound/Notifications, whatever our may be) and there you'll have the options to change type ringtone and sms notifications.
Setting different tones for every audio requires you to go into that app and change the settings individually.

this has worked you have to create the folder in the phones memory not external SD card.
how do i customise notification for each item i.e. I want a different one for SMS, EMail, Voicemail etc.
but the options only allows for one notification for all?

You need to go into each app and in the settings menu there should be an option for notifications.

Is there a way to change the default sound to something other then the pre-loaded HTC sounds? I was able to change the phone ringtone to a song on my sd card. When going to settings, phone ringtone there is a new ringtone button which let me choose whatever I want but when I go to the default sounds I do not have that option. The only option I get is, get more, which takes me to the HTC hub. I tried ringdroid and made a ringtone but it don't show up. I also installed tone picker but it doesn't show up either. Another strange thing is, I am using handcent and have a mp3 selected within handcent but when I get a text it uses the default notification instead. Anyone else having this problem?
I had similar issues. I used HTC Hub to download a new ringtone package, and found out that it just over writes everything I may have had selected.
I've had to go in and redo my ringtone and message notifications a few times, mostly after I hook it up and enable SD storage on the computer.
If I have someone call or send a text message while its hooked up as storage, it changes EVERYTHING back on mine to the stock sound settings.
Ok what i did with mine was use astro file manager to take whatever mp3s i wanted for notifications and copied and pasted them into my notifications folder which will be located in your media folder,open astro click sd card then click media then audio then notifications and paste whatever you want to hear for notifications sounds in there then when you go to your list they should show up and work like a charm.
I think I did that with a file manager and it still didn't show under Notification sounds. You need to hit set as once the desired file is highlighted and set it as a notification that way.
Use Zedge. Its a free app and you can select it as default instead of using system. Works wonders!

Menu --> Personalize --> Notification Sound
This is where you can change the default notification sound as well as the sound for the email app, the messaging app, and the calendar.
This took me awhile to figure out. A new feature of Sense 3.0. Possibly introduced in Sense 2.1. Not sure. But different than the EVO either way...

Its a stupid question! But, how I can change the ringtone in MINICM9?
1. settings
2. sound
3. phone ringtone
Sorry! Double Post.
Ans how can I use my own MP3's?
download a ringtonepicker from the market, standard android doesn't let you choose own mp3's, but with a third-party ringtonepicker it will work.
go to music and long press song or mp3 and set as ringtone. depends on how you access those mp but usually does the trick
Create the folder
sdcard/ringtones for your call ring tones,
sdcard/notifications for your message notifications,
sdcard/alarms for the alarm tones.
Any mp3 you put in these folders will show up in the list for selecting the tones
Ok thanks!
Does anyone know how to add your own ringtone and notification sound files? On my previous phone, I could just drop mp3s in the Ringtone and Notifications folders in the sdcard folder. Adding them here doesn't seem to make them show up in the menu to choose them, and the "add ringtone" interface seems to only pull from songs in the music folder. Anyone have more success than me?
I just dropped the files in the ringtone/notification folders and they showed up fine for me in the respective sound settings menus.

Wierd... Chalk it up to user error... Tried it again and it worked.... sigh. Thanks for the reality check.
For some reason, the silent ringtone mp3 that i dropped into the notifications folder doesn't show up in the list of tones. I dropped the same file into the ringtones folder and it shows up on the list. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
