Change SMS Ringtone?

[kriEv]

im having an issue where my ringtones are showing up on that list but they arent playing. all of my ringtones are precut and mp3 format. whats going on?

its gotten to the point where no sounds eminates from my phone at all, not during incoming calls or anything.

Happened to me too, did you make your ringtones yourself? Cuz this happened to me when I made my own. All I did though was re-render the mp3 file and it worked

Anyone have any websites where they get SMS ringtones? I dont want music files, just some different beeps and whistles

There's a bunch out there. Let me start you off with the basics (they're all free by the way):
Download free Ringtones for your mobile cell phone | Zedge
Free Ringtones from Phonezoo: Make and Download Free Ringtones, Free Mobile Wallpaper and Play Free Games
Myxer - Download Ringtones and More

Enjoy.

Does anyone know how to add individual ring tones (for sms) for individual contacts?

I have attempted to set up .mp3 files for my alarms, but have been unsuccessful. I have followed the direction described on this thread with no luck. Any other options? Thanks.

Also, my phone is the HTC Eris.

I created the two directories with Astro File Manager, downloaded a notification from the browser and moved into the notifications folder using Astro and it worked fine. I didn't have to reset or anything. I haven't tried the ringtone folder yet.

OK, im having an issue with astro file manager.. how do i get it to create folders? i am new to this phone.. just got it.. figured out how to get the ring tones.. and did to the folder creation through windows explorer.. but wanted to know how to do it on the phone..

Thanks in advance..

You can do it thru Handcent (settings in the conversation w/the person) but there isn't a setting on the phone for individuals.

On your SD card, /media/audio/notifications is where you store files to use for app notifications. /media/audio/ringtones is where you store files to use as phone ringtones.

If these folders aren't there, just create them.

I have added a file in /media/audio/notifications, which now shows in the list for sound notification, but still when i test the sms tone is not changing, there are is only 1 file. I rebooted phone still no luck. Anyone has any guess why this is happening ?

thanks for helping the other guy out.i am new to ANDROID and i need to change the tone for messages to using a MP3. i think
u have explained how to do that but i have the following questions:
1. when u say REBOOT do u mean a power cycle or a master-reset ?
2. how do u access the SD card and see what directories r there and then create one if its not there.

thanks much

1. Power-cycle
2. Download a File Explorer App from the Play Store. Here's the one I use (regardless of its name)--> https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...details?id=it.medieval.blueftp&token=3SAzj4s5
