hi,
i just thought this may help other users of galaxy ace to add ringtones and notification tones..
i just created this folders to my sd card and audio files are shown automatically to the ringtones and notifiaction tones. i am just new to this phone and tried everything for a few days with no luck, no application needed to add your favorite songs, tones..hope this will also work for you...
SDCARD/ MEDIA/ AUDIO/ RINGTONES
and for the notifications...
SDCARD/ MEDIA/ AUDIO/ NOTIFICATIONS
It works.....no apps needed....just create folders...
thanks bro!
Just an addition to the first post...
You can create a third folder for the alarms, the same way:
SDCARD/ MEDIA/ AUDIO/ALARMS
Put in the audio files you want, and you will be able to select them when configuring an alarm!
thanks for the info, but guys i have a problem, I downloaded a custom ringtone but its volume is too low compared to the preset ringtone the handset comes with. I already maximized the volume for the notification in the settings menu, can anyone help me. thanks a lot and more power to the forums.

You can try using this program, MP3GAIN, to boost up your mp3's decibels.
http://mp3gain.sourceforge.net/download.php
Or this app from Android Market..Volume+ (Sound Boost)
currently using this app for my boosted up mp3s using MP3GAIN. Results = LOUD
But works only on Gingerbread..

Can't work out how to thank you, OP (perhaps I'm too new) - but, thanks!
Helped me too, finally... Just had to balance out ringtone with notification volume.
Thanks to both OP and Chikanoz
or maybe you can just install yourself a zedge app/Go sms
ADVICE
BUT it's better if you convert mp3 to ogg....
i've noticed if i use mp3, the sound takes a few seconds
Hit thanks button if i helped you
Yes..you need to make them OGG files.They are recommended

Yeah, I think I got an idea. Use ES File Explorer (amazing app!) and tap on the favourites tab. Tap on "/" and then go to to /system. From there go to media (/system/media/) and then audio (/system/media/audio/). From there you should find some folders. Alarms, notifications, ringtones and ui.
Quick heads up, I'm just going off of the way I transfered a notification tone from my Acer Iconia Tab A500 to my Samsung Galaxy Ace, so no promises
And if all else fails, I have to second and say use Zedge
notifications

There is an easy way. Got to "My Files" from menu, select "create folder" name folder, "Notifications" Copy whatever music you want from your SDcard, called, "external_sd" and paste into "Notifications". Your music will appear in the notifications ringtones list in "Sounds". Just select it.
Thanks so much, this has been an absolute godsend, I can use a tone I can actually hear for my reminders!
Then, yesterday it suddenly decided to stop working The dfault on calendar alarms went to on screen notification and the sound file I'd added had gone. I connected USB and it's still there, but doesn't show up in the list of ringtones any more.
Any suggestions? I'd be so greatful, I'm going to miss all kinds of appointments now I'm sure
all they need now is a folder for playlists which i'll try to implement into my new geared series
Where can I configure sounds to be different for email vs sms/txt messages?
When you open email and go to settings you will be able to set whatever tone you want and the same applies to sms (again go into settings)
Thanks. What do you guys use as notification noises?
Use anything you want. Google "Zedge" they have hundreds on there and you'll be spoilt for choice, and its free.

can't see and set ringtones on SGS 2
Are you talking about default ringtones or custom ringtones ? For custom ringtones i made 2 folders on my external sd card with names "Ringtones" and "Notifications", put all my custom ringtones there and i can see and set them as default ringtones/notifications sounds without any problem.
Also foind this issued on my 2nd day using this s2, still try to figure it out

You can try out the Rings Extended app. Its a good app to help pull out all ringtones in your phone.
standard and custom
Hi, is there any way how to add my own notification rigtones (not phone ringtones)? I would like to change existing notif. tones (too short and silent to me) for new ones (for ex. music etc.). Is it possible if I dont have rooted phone?
Samsung Galaxy SII
Thx for advice.
Yes you can also this has been covered many time in the past.
Make a folder on sdcard called Notifications. Insert appropriate audio files into folder. Select notification tone in normal way. I think Ringtones and Alarms works too, I'm not too sure. I find there is a delay when using custom tones in that fashion, so I just whack 'em in /system/media

Hello, Iam the owner of a Verizon (USA ) Samsung S6 Edge Plus...
Model Number: SM-G928V
Android Version: 5.1.1
Base Band: G928VVRU2AOJ2
please any can tellme where its the notification sounds on my phone? because I try to add new notificacion sound but the phone don't givme an option to select a mp3 file ( like when I add some tone ring )... I try to find the folder where its the notifications sounds, but I cant find it...
I now the notifications original sounds its a .ogg files, but in all my samsungs olds phones I can add some notifications sounds like mp3 files.... please any help on this ?
thanks
I had the same issue with this phone. I found the easiest way was to use the Ringdroid app. I opened my file, then saved it as either a ringtone or notification (or both). Then it was inserted into the Samsung listing for notification & ringtone sounds. Tried importing my original ringtones, but like you, couldn't find the folder where they were located.
I use Ringtone Maker from playstore to create custom notification sounds from my music files. It lets you edit the song and you can save it as the default notification sound or ringtone.
thanks both for your help on this.... I use today the two apks....
