Hi there can any1 help me out on this.I'm having truble hearing received txt messerges.Allso can't here the alarm.
I was wondering if there is any chance that I can use my ring tones and my alarms and received txt messerges like I do on my old p900 even reall tunes are not a problem.
If you can do this where do I put my rig tones what fold to thay go in so I can use them for what I need them for.I guess that I would have to put them into two different folders one for reciving txt messerges and one for alarm.
I cant seem to find the folders with the tunes allready in them that are allready in the phone.For using recived txt messerging or and alarms that are allready on the phone.Maybe if I could find them I mite be able to add my tunes to both of them.
Please help me out
thanx

You put your ringtones into the device\windows\rings folder. The format can be anything from mp3, wav, midi, wma
For email notification, your sound file MUST be in wav format, and should be placed in device\windows folder. You can appoint the new wav sound to be the default notification sound under Settings/Sounds & Notifications
For alarms, the sound file also MUST be wav. Put it under device\windows. Set up the alarm using the time applet on the Today screen
Hope that helped
Thanx for your help ill try that.If I can't get it to work ill let u. know thanx mono33
Hi does the wav sound need to be put into a folder in the device\window settings.Thanx mono33
All the WAV sound files must be in device\windows, not a subfolder (otherwise they won't show up in settings/sound¬ifications)
Ringtones must be put device\windows\rings (WAV, MP3, WMA, OGG...)
It won't hurt to experiment a bit, does it?

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 just want to know how to change the SMS tone to be .mp3 ??
i've placed the mp3 file under the windows folder but couldn't
see it in the drop-down list of SMS tones !!!
thank you in advance geeks ..
you need to use wav files in the windows folder for it to work
I am not a Geek!
But if I can use MP3 Files as a normal Call-Ringtone, why not also using MP3 Files as a SMS Sound?! :?:
I have absolutely no idea!! does that help?
Thanx ..
thanx guys for the help. In my opinion, it's impossible to set mp3 files as sms ring tones, you have to convert them into wav files.
havent tried it but I think you can use wma files with phonealarm

Where did you find a dialogue to select different message alert sounds? I can only find choices for ring tones, not message alerts. I've looked through the phone options and the manual but can find nothing about changing message alerts.
Doh! I just found it in Settings/Sounds & Notifications. It's a shame there is no consistent approach to setting ring tones and SMS alerts. No matter, problem solved.
hi i just sorted out how to use an mp3 as a ring tone with out a patch is there any way i can use an mp3/wav file as a ring tone for an sms ?
sms tones
Hi there.
Actually, there is a way to use wav files for sms tones.
Put your desired wav file in the \windows folder.
Go to Notifications, messaging:new text message and voila! use your wav file as your SMS tone.
:wink:
Not with MP3, that is not possible!
well i lied a bit lol ! an mp3 converted to a wav file almost an mp3 !!! tried the above still cant get it to add it to the standard ring tones ie the alarm1 alarm 2 and so on !
ive only had phone for a month so please in very easy english lol :shock:
how do i get an wav file in to this bit of the phone ???
from the active>settings>sounds¬ifications>notifications
1 select an event
change that to inbox:new sms message
2 select how to be notified
tick box play sound then in the sound box all i can get is
alarm 1 , 2, 3, 4, default ,hwandsw ,infbeg ,infend ,loudest ,lowbatt ,menupop msgbox ,notify ,online ,quietest ,recend ,type ,voicbeep
pleas ecould some one tell me how to get a wav file in there with out a patch would be lovley !
i have tryed every thing that i can think off !
:evil: :evil:
Sms more rings how solution.
Copy a wav file in the windows directory (in your PDA),, now go to Sound & Notification and see if you got that file under "TEXT MESSAGE" in the list. :? :lol: :?

thanks guys got that sorted now !!
How can i set an Mp3 or wav as ringtone alert?
Thanks
I want to now that too? i have tried set the tones in my device/windows where all the alert/notification are but not working?? why is that? you dont see the tone in the list att all when you set a notification tone. I have tried mp3 wav wma tones.
what I did (and which is working) : I have 2 sounds that I wanted to use (1 for sms alert and another one as ringtone for my phone). the ringtone, I converted it to mp3 (mono, 96kbps) and put it in the windows\rings folder. for the sms alert, I left it as wav and put it in windows folder (mp3 wasn't recognized). in that way, they both appear at the right place in sound/notifications.
Ok, so you must convert the sounds? if you want to use them as notification tone. Thanx! gamin, I try that!
You can use ether MP3 or WAV as a ringtone, but only WAV for SMS.
SMS tones need to be in the windows folder.
If you want to use an MP3 as a ringtone all you have to do is hold the stylus on the MP3 to get the menu up and select "set as ringtone".
I know this works in WM6 but not sure about WM5.
does it exists a software to manage rings (for all alerts)?
Thanks
Hi, how to use wav or mp3 files as ringtone or message alert tone? My device is X01HT.
Have a nice day.

For notification audio, put the audio files into the \Windows\ folder (via ActiveSync or from the memory card via File Explorer). Ringtones need to go into \Windows\Rings.
Once the files are there you can just choose them from the dropdown lists in Sounds and Notifications.
I tried that and it did not work. I then looked at the properties of one of the built in alarm wavs. I converted my wav to the same bitrate, mono, 22hz and then it worked.

I would also like to know a good freeware to make ringtones on my xp pc for the ppc? is it mp3cutter?
And what format (ie. wav) & bitrate is recommended for ringtones?
I guess I cheat a lil...
I go to the website and listen to the ring-tines using Internet Explorer. I then go to my Temporary Internet Folder, pull out the MP3 files that I liked.
