how can i transfer pre-installed ringtones from htc one v to sony z2?

hey there,
i´m madly in love with my good old ringtone "zen" from my htc one v and would love to copy it to my new phone, a sony z2. But i cant find the pre-installed ringtones anywhere when i access my phone from the pc (connecting via usb and selecting that the phone should serve as a hard drive.) i even installed "total commander" because i read that it could access the ringtones - but no success...
what can i do? how can i access and copy "zen"?

thank you so much for your help!!!
best regards, tashy

Welcome to Android Central! Preinstalled ringtones are in a protected system folder--you'd have to root the phone in order to gain access. You might have some luck searching for it on the web, like on Zedge.com. I found this, but I have not vetted this site or download to see how legit it is, so download cautiously: Wake Up Sound Zen ringtone for HTC One 32GB cell phone

You have to log into that site with credentials, like Facebook. And it's Russian. I'd stick with Zedge - we all know that's safe and legitimate.

Ah bummer. I did a quick search on Zedge and couldn't find a ringtone with that name for the OP.
