Can't change ringtone or setup alarm! - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am having two problems with my S4:
1) When i try to change the ringtone the following message apears 'The process android.process.media stoped' and i can't change the ringtone.
2) When i try to set up a new alarm, the app crashes and apears the following message 'Clock stoped'.

do a factory reset and then flash a new firmware that will solve it

I read somewhere on here that the particular file you're trying to use for your ringtone and the alarm sound may be corrupt. Are they the same file?

They are not the same file. I can't even choose de alarm ringtone file. It doesn't open the alarm menu.

Problems solved.
I created a folder 'Ringtones' on external sdcard and moved all my ringtones there.
The Ringtones folder in the internal SDCard must be empty.
Thank you wolfgrrl for pointing the right way

Are you both using the Stock HTC ROM? Rooted? S-OFF?
Have you removed any apps with Titanium Backup?
Bugger I've just started getting this exact problem this morning. Have tried removing so many apps, restarting, etc...oh well guess I'll be doing a device reset to the default firmware.

When I tried that, there are no options for sound sets. It's blank.
I tried to click on "get more" and it crashed again.
Any other ideas anyone?

default ringtone

I was messing around to find the default ringtone for x8 (it rings whenever you don't have SD card present or you have USB cable attached)
but can't find it anywhere, any help ?
Try in /system/media/audio
no luck mate already tried that,
I easily found it using the search button!
See attachments, you have the notification sound too there
oh no, not this, i'm not talking about sony ericsson.ogg, well let me tell you what it sounds like :
Oh I'm sorry, didn't read the whole description
It must be one of these two.
no mate, I think you didn't check my attachment ! and the spooky thing is that I have deleted all files under system/media/audio/ringtones
I don't have any file there, but the ringtone still rings, try plugging your cellphone to a computer in USB mode, then call on your phone, you will get what I mean.
I don't think there are more SE sounds...Anyway I cant listen to your file and I don't have stock ROM (if it needs stock ROM)
ya i'm on stock, but it is really weird.. mate
What if you find a stock rom in a zip format and replace the folder containing those files?

[Q] Cant delete folders :?

Hello
So I cant delete these two folders (com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA8HM and com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftRAHM ) and I also cant download the Asphalt 8 and the GT racing 2 ( I do belive that that are those two files that I cant delete ) . When I try to delete it from the computer , it says that is write protected or something like that .
So is there any way to fix it .?
Thanks
Hmm where are these files? I mean in Device storage or sd card. Restart your phone n then try to delete them with diff file manager(ES file explorer may help).

Install ES File Explorer. And after this when you click on ringtones options in settings a new window will pop up. And tou will have an explorer option through which you can use any destination folder in your mobile and can use any ringtone.
And for using different ringtones for different apps go into apps personal settings.
