Mp3 as custom ringtone?

[graye]

Hey, I was just playing with my new Galaxy S4 GPe... but I can't seem to get custom ringtones to work.

I just did what I've always done... I just copied my custom ringtone MP3 file into the Ringtones directory. But, the new song doesn't show up in the list of ringtones for me to select it.

The MP3 file plays just fine... so it's not an issue of encoding

You don't suppose that this issue is related to the fact that my phone number hasn't been ported over yet?

Am I missing something easy/stupid?

Doesn't show up in Settings-Sound-Phone Ringtone-Media Storage?

I don't have a "media storage" option...

When I go to Settings -> Sound -> Phone Ringtone, all I get is a list of ringtones in a radio button list.

OK, I just converted it to OGG format, and now it appears.

So, I guess MP3 support is typically a vendor/carrier supported feature???!?!?!
