hello! how can i import wav file to be my new sms file. i can change ring tone but can't seem to know where to put the file for the os to make it into the list for new sms message tone. unless we can't.
terence
well so far i've found no way to add new sounds to the normal pda nonSpc phone sounds and notification
not sure why that is
new sms sound is possible
I have stated elsewhere on this forum that I've used a Butler style voice saying 'There's a message for you' (halmsg)
I have also changed my general notifications to a sexy girl's voice saying 'Open your eyes! (open your eyes)
& here's a cool ring tone (Pearl & Dean)
but how do you make them apear on the list ? in sounds and notifications ?
i tried looking for every post you ever made in your profile to find the post but found only a post where you said you changed it not how
I like the pearl and dean sound - can you make it available for download please - thanks
anything you have in your browser window (well most things anyway)
are first transfered to your pc
look in
dokuments & settings\[Name]\local settings\Temporary Internet Files\
the wma file should be in one of those dirs in temp internet files
along with all the gif's and jpg's and such that www pages have on them
1. For a wav/wma file to appear as ring tone, PASTE the file into your RINGS folder under WINDOWS on your device.
2. For the file to appear as SMS sound notification, PASTE the file into the WINDOWS folder on your device.
3. To achieve change other notofication not included in the notification list, use any registry editor and change the SOUNDS entry in your registry to point exactly what you want to be played.

ok thanks
Is there any way to change the small "bleep" (or blip) indicator tone when you send a text message?

Go to Settings-Sound & Notifications.
Which one is it in there - I couldn't find it

Change the SMS sent sound
This will possibly change the sound of other pop-up messages but it does work for SMS and I MUCH prefer it this way. \HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\Default Change the Wave key from msgbox to any other .wav file in the Windows directory (don't include the .wav extension). I changed it to hwandsw.
hey just paste your wav tone in your windows folder and WALLA! you can now select the tone on the notifcations. ps only wav tone can be us. have fun
Thanks Raymonds,
That worked perfectly.
For everyone else, you need to fix the registry to do this. Changing notifications can only change the message REVEIVED tone and NOT Sent Tone

Hey guys,
I have looked threw the forum and could not spot anything about changing the SMS sound on the HD2. Is this possible? If I have missed a post or tip somewhere explaining about this apologies for the repeat post.
Cheers
Take a look in sound & notification
Go to settings then press menu then choose all settings then choose sounds and notifications then go to the notifications tab and on the event drop down box choose message: new message and then select your sound
What the first poster says is how will he add more sounds as sms alarms....
If he means this he/she should add the file he likes in Device Memory\Application Data\Sounds and then search the sounds through sound and notifications
hi
you need to put the sound in wav format and place it into your windows directory. these will then be available for you to select in sounds and notifications. the ringtone files can just be put in the windows/rings folder or the rings folder in my docs
I've got mp3 files in the "my documents" folder on my device, and they show up in all the notification and ringtone lists.
I deleted a ringtone file on my SD Card/My Documents but it still appears as an option when I choose a Ringtone. Is there a way to go through the registry to delete it?
when you select a ring tone on the sd card and "set it as device ring tone" the phone copies it to my documents/my ringtones. So... it's still on the phone.

For me, when i put on the folder My Documents, it already appears as a selectable ringtone. I tried what you said, but i don't see a folder My Ringtones appear. I've been opening every folder on my SD Card. I still can't find the deleted ringtone anywhere...
Just to clarify, I'm talking about the settings Sound & Display. The ringtone still appears there, and plays the tune, but i'm unable to locate that ringtone on my sdcard.
Windows ringtone default directory
It's in the \Windows\Rings directory.
Alert tones for sms are in \Windows directory. Filenames are prefixed with Ring-.

I have this feeling I'm not explaining myself clearly enough.. I've attached screenshots to better explain myself
Screen Shot 01:
That is what my My Documents folder in my SD Card looks like.
Screen Shot 02:
As they are located in the My Documents folder, they appear as selectable ringtones
Screen Shot 03:
However, there is one ringtone which appears there "I Think I Love You -" that is not contained inside the My Documents folder
Screen Shot 04:
I have checked the My Device\Windows\ Rings folder and have not found the file there either.
So my question is, where can the file be? And how can i completely remove it? Thank you.
hmmmmm.
Locate at My Device\My Documents. Check "My POI" and "My Ringtones" folders.

Thanks =) Found it in the My Ringtones folder of My Device.
Hi,
does anyone know if it is possible to *unset* a special ringtone for a contact?
I had a special ringtone for a contact, but I cannot configure this contact to go back to the "default, systemwide" ringtone. And as I have a tasker task that switches from a loud ringtone to a silent one, simply setting the contact to the same ringtone that I have systemwide will not help. If I change the system ringtone, the custom ringtone for the contact will not change. (For the oneplus 3, I saw screenshots with a "default" entry which is missing now)

hmm deleting app data for the phone app did not help
Maybe you can paste the music in, sdcard/ringtone

You have to be root and paste the file in the root of the phone in system/media/audio/ringtones and put the same permissions as the other Ringtones rw-r--r--

That doesn't solve the problem, it's not about setting a specific ringtone. Rather, I had a contact with a special, custom ringtone and I cannot find a way to make this special contact "normal" again (ie so that it doesn't have a special ringtone but just the normal, systemwide one). It keeps being special with an own ringtone. I even deleted the contact in Google and recreated it, but somehow the phone recognized that it had the same number or email address and it had the special ringtone again...
I have a choice for none and that resets the ringtone to the system default.

it doesn't for me. If I set the custom ringtone for a person to none and the systemwide ringtone is, eg "oneplus tune" and that particular person calls me, the phone stays silent even when the alarm slider is "loud'.
Furthermore, if my system ringtone is "oneplus tune" and I open a regular contact (for which I had never set a custom ringtone before) and to the custom ringtone form it shows me the "oneplus tune" as active (and not "none"). From this, I'd say that "none" simply means an empty, silent ringtone which is, nevertheless, a ringtone which can be custom...
Yep, you're right.
It always reports what the systemwide ringtone in that field. Based on your information, it seems the ringtone is stored with the default number of the contact by the sounds of it. I tested it and got same result. I had to set the ringtone to match the system.

I checked my contacts in Google and found no ringtone information anywhere, so it must be stored somewhere on the phone. Even deleted the affected contact and created it as new, but as soon as I entered the phone number, the custom ringtone was back :-\
Don't know where to look where this information might be stored locally. Already deleted app data for the phone app and the contacts app, no luck so far
