How to use MP3 file as the ringtone - HTC Hurricane

Hi,
I used to use the HP iPAQ 6515 and I could just copy the mp3 file that I wanted to use as ringtone to the 'windows' folder and the file appeared on the list of the ringtones.
I'm now using this T-Mobile SDA or the HTC Hurricane, and I tried the same thing but it didn't show up on the ringtone list. What should I do to make an mp3 file as my ringtone? Thank you very much!

Try This
I posted a copy of "Add Ringtone 1.0" today on this forum. It will allow you to do what you want.

Adding Ringtones after 2003SE upgrade

On the default WM2003 that came with the iMate, i used to copy any *.wma file to my pda, hold click in file explorer and set as ringtone, but after I did the upgrade to WM2003SE this option is gone. Any ideas how to put a wma music file as ringtone.

Put it in the windows/rings directory.
Then just go to the normal sounds & Notifications section in settings. Have a look in there and you will see the option for incoming calls.

Im not sure if wm2003 can recognise mp3 files.
wm2005 you copy the mp3 file into the \windows\rings directory.

Custom Text alert sound doesn't show in alert settings

I have tried inserting my own file into the alerts/ringtone directory (Windows/rings) and they do not show up when I try to change it on my Sprint Touch Pro. I have tried wav, and wma as both file types are present in the directory. Any ideas?

Have you tried <My Documents\My Ringtones>? What about saving them as MP3? Stock ROM? How big are these files?
Copy them and then paste into the windows folder. Then they appear as the others do when you select a ringtone as normal. If you look through the windows folder you'll notice the factory ringtones.

That's just because everything goes to <\Windows> during a ROM flash. PROVXML's should move some of the Factory rings to <\Windows\Rings>, but it depends on provider and ROM version. Most custom ROMS have the ringtone packages move the main ringtones to the Rings folder.
WM should search all the mentioned folders for Tones:
<\Windows>
<\Windows\Rings>
<\My Documents\My Ringtones>
<\Storage Card\My Documents\My Ringtones>
There might be more, but I know for sure these 4 places work.
Thanks for the replies guys. The provider is sprint on a stock rom. Tried all 4 locations to no avail, the file is only 153K. Haven't tried it as mp3 yet gonna have to convert it. I don't know what the deal is I didn't have any problems on my last phone (elf) but my last phone didn't have the rings folder it just dumped everything into the windows folder.
Ok mp3 worked, weird. Anywho.... thanks guys appreciate the input.

You need to make a folder naming 'notifications' onto your SD-card and put these files in it, otherwise it is always better to add in System\media

I made the folder directory: sdcard/media/audio/notifications and saved the mp3 there, but it still doesn't show up when selecting a notification tone, like, for example, texts. I tried to move the mp3 into the phone's storage, but it won't let me.. I'm using OI File Manager. Any suggestions?

Are you rooted? Use ES file explorer, don't forget to mount file system in settings.

I'm running stock. I assume that I have to be rooted to save files onto the phone, as the mount setting is only available for rooted phones. Is this the only way I'm gonna be able to accomplish what I want to do?

Set Mp3 as a Ringtone

I am new to this world, buy 710 to my girl as a gift. Now she wants a specific ringtone. But need Zune (it refuse to install) Windows Embedded S 7, downloaded 2 times and always get error.
So I was wondering if is there a way to set the ringtone on the go, for example in Android that is the world I know the most, you can set it, just need a file explorer then copy the file to the folder Ringtone in your SD Card, and viola you got to ringtones and there is the file you just copied. Any similar in Windows 7.8?.
Thanks for any help you can bring me. :good:
