[Q] Notifications tones on HD2-WP7 - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

Where do i go to add Notifications tones on HD2-WP7
PLZ help

Im trying to edit the registry to enable custom sms tones etc. right now... I think this is the only way to do it currently.

Using the registry editor I found HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\LocalizedNameMap
this is where all the alerts and alarms are set up. However the reg edit doesnt allow to change value name which points to the file name...

Got to http://touchxperience.com/ and there is a few tools you can download, but i use there advanced config tool. Have a look and see.

I read somewhere that you could sync files to the device using Zune and then move them using touchxplorer. I believe that you have to rename wma files and then overwrite the existing notification sounds in windows directory.

Unable to use mp3 file as a ringtone

Hello
I have MDA compact, and does anybody knows how can i set a mp3 file as ringtone ?
Please !!
Thanks
i think it is possible, i tried this in my i mate pda2k try it and tell us the result.
first use rescue registry which usually comes with rescue explorer then open HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT THEN MP3 THEN DEFAULT THEN CHANGE MP3FILE IN THE SECOND SQUARE TO BE WMAFILE THEN OK
PUT THE MP3 RING TONE IN FOLDER WINDOWS\RINGS
THEN TRY TO MAKE IT RING TONE
THX
Thanks
This knids hard way, i really dont understand that
Man,u should install a reg editor first.Because u have to modify the registry.
yes
u have to use a rigistery editor program which i gave u the name rescue registry program
then open this program then follow up the steps
it is easy
There is a much easier way.. I have attached CAB file that once installed, will allow you to select an MP3 as a ringtone.. Simply find the file in File Explorer & under properties, select 'Set As Ringtone'

Hey, you don't need to do any registry hacks or stuff like that. Just copy your MP3 file to the /Windows/Rings folder and your MP3 file will be available for selection in the list. It's that easy!
Alternatively, install the following application that will add a new menu option "Set as Ringtone" when you tap and hold on an MP3 file in the built-in File Explorer.
Thanks
Is there no much easier way to do that, i suppose if we assign the ring tone to a contact name i think there should any option you can assign the ring tone to a group and transfer all contact into that group ?
or any other way if some one know ?
thanks
I've tried the CAB method before.But the program will copy the MP3 file to Windows\ring\ It ocuppys the precious and pitiful storage space.
I think a better way is to modify the registry to set the ringtone path to the Storage Card...

Slidingsound Here

I found out how to customize the slidingsound and I have changed it to the transformers transforming sounds.
Just go to your registry
\HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\SlidingSound\
Copy any of the numbered folders and rename it to the next number. Then adjust the values to match the file names and what you want to call it.
Here are the files you will need

someone already posted this, with the same exact sounds.
is there any way of doing it on the phone alone?

Uploading to Rapidshare and Mediafire as we speak. Something I'd like would be to implement the Diamond Sound Scheme into our current devices; I vaguely remember being able to change the sound files in the registry... Maybe someone could go through it?

Sorry for the Mediafire link, for some reason, the file got messed up. Rar extensions removed, added, everything's compressed.... ah it's a mess. i'm removing the link.

Settings for ring tones are stored under:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories]
E.G.
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Ring]
"InitVol"=dword:5
"Speaker"=dword:1
"Directory"="\\Windows\\"
"AttenuationCategory"=dword:2
"DefaultSound"="Ring-WindowsMobile.wma"
You can just copy the files to your windows folder and select whatever you want in sounds/notifications. No need to change the registry.
I have this ringtones already in my Cruise, and my question is how can i degrease the volume?? even when u set the tone volume at "0" it still sound? and if u have 2-3 the volume is very loud, how came? any solution for that?
i copied the sounds folder to the root of windows, but havent found a way to use them from sound notifications

That is strange. Once in the Windows directory, you should just be able to go to Settings>Personal>Sounds and Notifications.
Select the 2nd tab on bottom. For each item (e.g., Incoming email..) you can select a sound from the pull down. All sounds from the Windows directory should be listed there. If not, maybe it is a format issue (e.g., wma vs wav vs mp3).
maybe i need to rename the folder? i copied the folder, should i copy the rings directly to the win directory not in a folder?
for incoming call ringtone the file should be in wmv format and can be everywhere even in storage card..
for other tones the file should be in wav format and be directly in windows folder

Check the registry ...and sometimes it looks into my documents/my ringtones folder might work for some registry setting
Put only the wav sound in windows root then u can see them in notification settings. wma files u can put in windows rings folder or, device->my documents->my ringtone
alright thanks all, its working
You have to extract the sound files from the folder and copy them to your windows root folder.
cool... now i got a sms alert tone
I'm not able to set the volume of .wma Diamond's ringtones in my Touch Cruise...
How can i do?

[Q] q- how can i change sms ring tones

q- how can i change sms ring tones "special"
Open the app, go into settings, change the notification tone
(Should be in Q&A)
i see but i can't select my special ring tones. How can i use my ring tones
Hi,
Create a folder named Notifications, in /sdcard/Notfications (from a file explorer or from a PC just create the folder at the root of the sdcard) and put your sound inside it. It's the same thing for Alarms and Ringtones.
Or if you are rooted you can also go to /system/media/audio/notifications and put your soud here, don't forget to set the corect permissions for the new files. But here it's less easy.

If you want to give certain contacts a specific ringtone you can download Handscent from the Playstore which allows you to apply ringtones to individual contacts
