Hi,
New to all of this so go easy on me !!!
I want to know if it is possible to change the Alarm tones and Text tones (other than those supplied on it) .... ie. for adding new ring tones I have just put them in /windows/rings ... however, when I look for the alarm/text tones they sit in /windows .... whenever I put anything in there it does not get recognised in the settings under 'notifications' etc.
Make sense !?!?!?!? Anyone help ?
Cheers
Rob.
Adding ring tones for notifications(alarms and events)
just add any wave file in windows folder of your mobile it appears as ring tone in notification for alarms and other events
Does anyone know any good free sites to download various ring/notification wav files? I have a bunch of files that I've obtained or clipped from songs/etc, but it would be nice to see what else is out there.
I am running dcd 3.0.0 (Nex_VzW_dcd_3.0.0) and have downloaded a few ringtones to the \windows\rings folder. I can see them listed in Sounds & Notifications, but when I select the new ring tone and press OK it changes back to ring-standard. It also does this if I select some of the default ring tones.
While I am on this topic, can you select a ring tone for a contact that is different then the ring tone selected in sound and notifications?
Thank you in advance.
how do i get my personal mp3s and what not to be on my sounds list for ringtones and for the sms ring?
anyone know?

Simply point & hold on the MP3 you want set as your ringtone and a pop=up menu appears, in which there is an option to set it as your ringtone.
With regards to your SMS notification - you have to copy the MP3 to the Windows folder on the phone and then select it via Start-Settings-Sounds & Notifications.
I recently flashed my Topaz to a 6.5 ROM, and I'm loving it. It's slick, smooth abnd fast. My only gripe is that no matter where I seem to put an MP3, I never have the option of choosing anything but one of the three default rings as a ringtone:
Ring01 - WindowsPhone
Ring02 - Velvet
Ring03 - Flame
They're all the same!!
Surely Microsoft hasn't locked this down?
"oh listen! someone's got a Windows phone! let's point and laugh and joke at them with their gay ringtone that can't be changed!"
Theres two ways you can set the ringtone.
First you can select the mp3 file and from the menu select "Set as Ringtone"
or
Copy the mp3 file to /my documents/my ringtones and then select it from the ringtone list as normal
I don't have the option on right click menu to 'Set as Ringtone'
Placing MP3 in that location does not show it in the list.
Could this be a Cooked ROM issue?
I am using TOM Topaz from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=526966
use file explorer, select and hold on the mp3 file, u will se options such as copy, paste and set as ringtones.
by the way " /my documents/my ringtones " this is the location in the device, not in SD card
Worked, thanks!
it's doesn't worked for me
I dont have "paste and set as ringtones", just only "pase" and just have 3 rings tone
Ring01 - WindowsPhone
Ring02 - Velvet
Ring03 - Flame

Someone helpme plz!
I use rw6828, ROM WM 6.5
Do you have a "/my documents/my ringtones" folder? What's in it? If you don't, create one and see if it makes a difference. Oh and "", to those who seem to think cooked roms are great and stable..
I've a similar issue... Rom in signature.
I've set a .mid file as ring. Anyway it's present in \my documents\suonerie. But it doesn't work. When I call it uses a different ring. And if I go into sound and notification settings I can't play that .mid for a preview, but it's playable with wmp...wazzup??
same problem with me I've made a folder on the sd card on my experia x2 named My Ringtones(this helped to put my mp3's there and the phone to recognize them as a ringtones) and when I enter my sounds and notifications it shows all the mp3 files I've put there and use as personalized rings and they work but sometimes when somebody call me my phone start ringing with some strange win mo default melodie(ugly SE melody) and I have to change it again with some of my own's but as u can guess it lasts just a few days and than the old story repeats........
any suggestions.....
Can't set ring tone for incomming calls
I loaded WM6.5 ROM on my Treo 750.
Everything is great except one issue...
... I cannot set the Incoming Call Ring Tone.
When I go into the options of the phone, it is set to "none".
I set it to "Vibrate and Ring", then set a ring tone.
When I save/exit, it reverts back to "none".
I tried mid ring tones, wma, and mp3.
I tried ring tone only and vibrate only also...
... But no matter what I set it to, it keeps reverting back to none.
It WILL NOT ring or vibrate on incoming calls.
The SMS, Voice Mail, Missed Call, and email notifications all work fine.
Oddly, when I go into settings, sound options, then notifications, the incomming call ring tone is set.
I can change it and it saves. But it has no affect.
And the options in the phone dialer still has "none" selected.
ANY Help would be great!
Thanks

Does the ring tone play in your settings?

Thank you for the reply!
Yes, it plays when I press the play button in settings.
Maybe you have an app with call profiles and the silent or mute one is activated. Something like Spb Phone Suite.
If you don't have another profile app installed, I would suggest a hard reset to fix the issue.

Hi
Is that possible to assign different ringtone to each contact?
There's an option to assign a ringtone inside a contact person page, however when that person calls, the ringtone that rings is not that specific ringtone I assigned to that person, but it's the ringtone that I set in the Sound setting rings instead.
Is there a way to make that works?
thanks

If you use a contact manager like resco contact manager it will work.
