get a 3rd party app like "zedge" and just download a ringtone version of the song... or "Ringtone Maker" from google market, that way you can make it a system file, versus loading up a 5 MegaByte when someone calls..... that will probably create lag.
I use PowerAMP to play my music, and they have a feature built-in to make a ringtone version of the current song you are playing - that's a good route too!

thanks i have downloaded ringtone maker but how do i use it? i cant find any instructions

select a song (the song you said you like) and it should bring up a graph.
Your going to select a window of when you want the song to start and finish.
E.g. Start 0:30 in... end at 0:45. It will save it in a ringtone format for you to select in Settings >>>> Sounds>>>

When you select the song, click the green arrow to the right and select edit. THEN the graph will pop up.

Call me a weirdo, or a creep...

I have a strange request...is there anyway to get the voodoo lady's voice as a notification tone? I just love hearing it...kinda weird I guess, but what can I say!? Any help or comedic replies are welcome! Thanks!

Go, HERE. Choose voice linda and effect old robot. After you demo it and make her say some nasty stuff to you click the "download voices" link and get linda for your OS version. Once installed in options choose robot effect again. Clear all text in window and type a message put cursor at beginning of text and hit play. Put cursor at beginning again next hit file/export audio file and name it what and put it where you want. Now you can copy file over to device (rootEx or adb) to system/media/audio/notifications and reboot. YAY! It might also help to open the file in an audio editor and increase the volume of the file.
Example
good day.
Thanks chopper...you be the man! At least I know I'm not the only guy that has a thing for the voodoo chick!

Came up with a couple of different types of notifications and increased the gain of the audio files. The zip (edify) below includes 4 notification files that are added to system/media/audio/notifications should you want to delete them.
2 for messaging
1 for email
1 for voice mail (preview provided)
*sample* voodoo_vm

[Q] Help Disabling VM Notification Sound

On my EVO and EVO Shift I could set the voice mail notification to "None" so that it did not make a noise EVERY time I got VM. However on my new 3D that option is missing and only allows me to change the sound, no option to turn it off.
I need help please! As my friends and family get really irritated at me when I turn VM off completely.
TIA

hmm, interesting. You're correct, I couldn't find a way to shut the sound off either. As you stated, there was no selection for 'none'. I was unable to find anything in the regular phone settings either. Perhaps you could use an app such as ring tone trimmer or something, and create a ringtone which is just silence, and then select that? I'll try that and see if it works, give me a few.

Okay, I got it to work. Download an app called 'ringdroid.' Then choose 'record new'. Use the sound recorder, and record 10 seconds or so of complete silence, then stop it. Then choose 'use this recording'. Then it brings you to a screen where you can edit the ringtone, but you don't need to do that. Just hit the save button. At that point, change the Type to Notification, instead of ringtone. Change the name to something like "silence" or whatever, and hit save. Then it'll ask you to make it the default notification sound, choose no. Then go back into your voicemail app, and go to the settings>notifications>select sound. Then look in the list, and the ringtone you made will be in there. Choose the silent ringtone you created, and you should be good to go.

For the new google player (from BFH 2.2) nor for the stock music player there is no notification in notification drop down menu. So it can't be cleared. App stays active (red dotted)

to get rid of the red dots just go into preferences and untick the all apps runing options

Can't set mp3 for ringtone

Ok, I'm kinda embarrassed by this, but I can't seem to set mp3 for ringtone as of today. I know I did it before, either in music player or in file explorer by longpressing the file and selecting "set as" option. Today, I tried to change my ringtone and none of the menus don't have "set as" option anymore. Is it the Moto update?
br Zola
Here is one of the way to use .mp3, .ogg or .mid as your ringtone.
1) create directory /sdcard/Ringtones
2) put your favorite ringtones in the directory
3) Restart/reboot to refresh media listing
4) Menu -> Settings -> Sound ->Phone ringtone -> Android System (if Any)
5) Choose your ringtone file
For Notification
1) create /sdcard/Notifications
2) put your favorite ringtones in the directory
3) Restart/reboot to refresh media listing
4) Menu -> Settings -> Sound ->Notification ringtone -> Android System (if Any)
5) Choose your ringtone file
This works on N1, SGS and RAZR
Good luck.
Ok, tnx. But I should be able to use "set as" option in menus. Or not?
br Zola
I use that method because,, I also cannot find the 'Set as' in RAZR . Well, it is just one of the way it.
Thank you, used your method, works just fine.

The only way to do it on this phone is to go to the stock music player and choose the song. Play it and hit your menu buttons it give u a option then to use it as a ring tone. Or u can do the steps above.

I think I can help with the playlist. I can tell you how to do that with the media program that Sony made for these phones; Media Go.
http://mediago.sony.com/enu/features
Drag songs to a playlist, then click the 'artist' or 'song' tab and it will alphabetise immediately, now sync that to your phone.
What do you mean by replicate the dance setting? There is a manual equalizer tab, if that's what you need to do.

thanks! can you tell me how to sync it?
what i meant was - i need to know the exact manual levels of the bar so that it will sound like the "dance" preset on ray.
Sure, when you have installed the program Media Go, add music to your library. You can either drag and drop into your library or tell it to use music from a folder that you want.
Now prepare your playlist. Click artist or song to alpabestise whichever you need. Now connect your phone. Your phone will appear in the top left corner. Click on your phone or SD card and on the top right corner you will see sync media. Select the playlist and click ok. Now it will start syching!
There will probably be easier, faster ways of doing this, but this is the fastest that I know of.
As for the dance equalizer settings, I know what you mean now. Either use the equalizer in iTunes or Media Go. Open eqalizer and select dance, you will see the bars move to dance setting. Use this to change the bars in the Walkman app on your phone! I hope this helps!
thanks! let me try this when i get home

I was able to see the equaliser settings. thanks.
is it possible to import the playlist from my phone, edit it in media go, then put it back?
Quite possibly. Connect your phone, then on the left hand side look for playlists near your phone. Find your playlist then right click it, see if 'import' comes up. If it doesn't, look at the bottom of the page, possibly along the right hand side for import (but you must have highlighted the playlist on the left column first). Edit the playlist, then you could possibly sync in at least 3 places:
1. right click the edit playlist and look for export to
2. look at the bottom right hand corner of the page for export to
3. in the top right hand corner, look for sync and find your playlist, click ok
I hope this does what you need it to!

import comes up, but i dont see my playlist from my phone.
would you know where to find it? sorry, im really a noob in this.
thanks again
Ask as much as you like, as much as I can help, I will!
When you plug in your phone, and you see it on the left in Media Go, did you click the arrow beside the phone? The arrow reveals the contents of the phone. Do you see a playlist now?
