I put my .mp3 ringtone at /Windows/Rings and set my ringtone to that MP3.
It should work, right?
:shock: But it always kick back to boring Windows Default !!!
I have to set it back everytime.
Any idea? :roll:
i m not that sure but i guess it can only use WMA or WAV ringtones
Try to transform your .mp3 into .wma (same quality / size)
try to make short ringtones, no more than 20sec.

jarmsk, I got my K-Jam the other day and placed some MP3 files into the rings folder to use as ringtones. Utilising MS Outlook, I have assigned MP3 tones to different people with no difficulty at all. Are you using Outlook or another PIM (such as Pocket Informant).
Sorry that I can not offer any advice on how to get it working on your device but I just wanted to let you know that it is possible and that it does work.
The ringtones that I assigned to each person in my contact, are working correctly.
The only problem is the ringtone that I assigned as the default ringtone.
I tried change convert from mp3 to wma but it always kick back to the original default ringtone.
I didn't use any other PIM just the one from the factory.
Any idea guys?

You got eg. pocket music installed?
Some programs is associate the MP3 as their default.
That can be the problem, just try to uncheck Mp3 in that kind of software..
notem screwed my mp3 ringtones up. uninstalled it but still windows default so converted them to wma and work fine now. had to reassign tone for each contact again.
is there a registry hack to revert things back?
mp3 ringtones for wizard
You can use it, no problem, I've tried my old magician mp3.cab file, it is working with wizard. Find it here, somewhere on magician forum.
Yes but why do we have to store our files in the Rings folder??
Any way to use the SD card? I have fifty or so ringtones, they take too much space if I place them all in the Rings Folder.
If you use the original explorer you can assign mp3 as your ringtone
just browse with the original explorer on your wizard to the mp3 file ...anywhere it doesnt mather
tap and hold on on the mp3 file.....in the drop down menu there is a selection for "set as ringtone"...when you select this, the file will be copied to the rings folder in windows. it also works for me by just copying them to the rings folder

that's exactly a problem. in my case i have gsplayer associated with mp3 files so mp3's as ringtones never work (only windows default ringtone). when i uncheck mp3 association in gsplayer, mp3 ringtones are working fine... now i'm converting ringtones into wma format as a workaround of this problem.
i have made a mp3 a wav and a wma file put them in the windows folder but the only ringtone i can select are default ones : default , mystic,oldphone ringer ect, if i change the event to sms or missed call i can pick a mp3 or wav no problem is the a lock down in reg or am i missing somthing
I recently installed pocket divx on my p4300 which uses wm5. My phone rang this morning and realized that it wasn't set to the ring tone i had set it to the night before. Now when ever i go into my storage card or into windows/rings my mp3's have this icon which is mainly default or unknown.
Does anyone know what to do about this, maybe it has something to do with my certificates or registry. Please post back whenever possible.
it sounds like media player lost its setting as the default program for opening the mp3.
I have problem with changing ring tones about calls, sms etc ... very very strange ! I open dialg window, change ring tone from the list, but it cannot be played or assigned. All my rings are stored at device memory. Any ideas ?
HINT: I REALIZED THAT PROBLEM IS COME FROM .MP3 FILE ASSOCIATION. IT MUST BE WITH WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER, NOT OTHER PLAYER - IN MY CASE GSPLAYER. JUST UNCHECK MP3 FILE ASSOC IN THAT PLAYER. TRY IN EXPLORER TO OPEN FILE. IF IT OPENS IN WMP EVERYTHING MUST BE OK.

HI friends,
I have a problem in my HTC Touch Diamond. After installing Nitrogen Player, I am not able to set MP3 as my ringtone. Please tell me how to enable MP3 as a ringtone. Mobile accepts only "wav" & default tones provided by HTC as ringtones. I uninstalled nitrogen & then tried, but no result. I even installed latest Nitrogen player, but i can't find way to set MP3 as my ringtone.
Please help me.
Thanks.
You have to put the mp3 you want in \My ringtones, otherwise it wont pop up in the list if you go to Settings\Telephone.
I tried
All my ringtones are in ringtone folder, i can set mp3 as a ringtone but it cant play it. when a incoming call comes, it rings any random file other than mp3.
