Incoming Call Ringtones can use few formats (WAV, WMA, MP3, AMR, etc) and directory to place the ringtone files can be tweak.
But Incoming SMS/Email/MMS Ringtones can only support WAV and only in Windows directory.
Is there a hack to able to make Incoming SMS/Email/MMS Ringtones to support more formats and in another directory?
Yeah that would be great... And if there is wa way to use Mp3 rings from the SD card for SMS sounds and alarms.

Hi, I was wondering how to set a custom ringing tone for the incomming calls. I tried with MP3 and WMA formats, placing them in My Music and Windows folders. Nothing. The ring tone list just doesn't include my file.
What's the trick?

Makes muuch more sense, thanks a lot :wink:
But for the alarms? \Windows and \Windows\Rings don't work.
for alarms you would have to use .wav format files...just paste them in the windows folder and you should be able to select the tone you want when setting up the alarm or reminder.
Alarm must be in wav format, and place in \windows, ringtone can be in \windows\rings or \Storage Card
For alarms, you can use Pocket WakeUp 1.1 and so use MP3 Files :lol:
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
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.
