What does one have to do to personalise message alert tones on the S200? I have downloaded my personal tones onto the phone (MP3s) but I do not see them show up in the list when I attempt to select one as a message alert tone.
must be .wav and into the windows dir... try it...
so be it - manemoi

Ive managed to set my audio files as ringtones but is it possible to set them as a SMS recieved tone?
yip, put the file in the map windows on your mobilephone and choose this file as your receive email sound. PS: i didnt test it with wma but it must work!!!
I'm almost sure its the New sms option in the sounds and notifications , not the new e-mail one.
in fact you can choose sound for many notifications in settings/phone/other settings/ and chose email, sms, even msn messenger notification sound.
when i test it i can only choose my alien.wma
when i change the phonering in notifications
it's not present on the list if i choose sms recieve or mail recieve
You have to copy the file in the \Windows directory and il will then appear listed for SMS too
As far as I know (on XDA I), you can only assign wma files to ringtones. SMS tones need to be wav.
It seems they use different audio engines.
i've tried to copy it to windows and windows/rings
and non of those locations matter to the list of my
sms notification or any other non phone edition spc
notification for that matter
i tried that too, and i conclude that it's not possible to set wma files to sms notification... it has to be wav...
regards
can we make the tone cut of with a push of a button.. my tone goes 4 ages and i cannot cut it of when im reading my msgs!
As far as I can tell, we are limited to using the in built message tones?
I can add new ringtones, and they appear when changing my ringtone, but when I try to change the message tone, the newly added WAV ringtones do not appear in the list, I am stuck with the preset crap.
I have a few I really want to use too.
If I am doing something wrong please let me know.
Put the WAV files in \windows\ main folder... It should appear in your message tones list...
Can't do it still, I've put it in the top windows level as well as the rings folder and still wont show up, I am so bored with the crap defaults!
sigh
Ummm :?: ... Try running the Add Ring Tone applet from the \Start\Setting\System\... Hope this helps as I am using my own customised WAV files for SMS tones on my O2 mini without any problems...
oh :?
ive tried adding the ringtone with the application, it appears in the ringtone list but will not appear in the list for sms tones.
arghhhhhh

SMS incoming notifications use the standard Windows Mobile Notifications system, so you can use any WAV file as a Notification.
Prepare your required Incoming SMS sound as a WAV file on your PC, then copy it to the MyDevice/Windows folder of the XDA.
Now open Start/Settings/Sounds & Notifications/Notifications and find the "Event" selection box. Find Message: New Text Message (or New SMS) in the list and select it. You then see the options with tick boxes. The Play Sound option has another dropdown, from where you can select any WAV file available.

Yes, this I know... But I want differentiate ringtones in agreement with phone number.
For example:
incomming SMS from +420603123456 - ringtoneA.wav
incomming SMS from +420598654321 - ringtoneB.wav
incomming SMS from +421800456654 - ringtoneC.wav
Do you get me?
Sorry- I misunderstood the question! I don't think anyone has developed a way to do this yet.
Is there any way of making my magician play my normal message tone, but shutup when I open it? (I have a long message tone - and I want to keep it) also would like to know if there is a fix for stopping full message alerts when in a call, and maybe change for a discreet tone.
message alert tone
Soory to other you but nobody is answering my blog, and you seem to have solved my problem. When i try to change my message alert tone ,hte only options i am given are the default message alerts, ive tried copying tones into the windows ring folder but still only get default tonesthe previuos process works fine for my ring tone, can you help?
Your notifications have to be in wav format. Or they will not work.
-This goes into the /windows folder
Ringtones can be in midi/wav or mp3 format
-This goes to the /windows/ringtones
Here are some wav files I made which you can try out

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
