In coming text tones

[skipwms]

Hi, I'm new here and I just got a samsung mesmerize and really don't like the preset ringtones for incoming text messages. Is there a way to add my own ringtones for the text messages, I was able to for the in coming calls. I also saw something about rooting your phone is there some way to do it that way ? Any help help would be big, thanks skipwms

If you're using the stock messaging app, open up the app and go to Menu>Settings>Select Ringtone. If you use a 3rd party app those should also be customizable through their settings dialog.

I have some ring tones that I have in a folder on my phone already but I can't find a way to add them to my alert tones (in coming text messages) any thoughts

I've got the same problem, the tones are on my storage card, the apps I got them from no longer worked on my EVO so I Uninstalled both apps. The tones are still on my storage card the last time I checked in separate folders. They don't show up in my ring tone list, except for a couple of them.

I might have this figured out. Download mini file manager, you will be able to see all of the files on your storage card. Next find where your tones are at on the card. Cut/copy/paste to the the media folder>ring tones folder. You should be able to see the tones in your ring tones & alerts app.

On your SD Card, make a folder (if one is already not there), called Media. Under Media, make a folder called Audio, and then under that, make two folders: one called ringtones and one called notifications. So it would be \media\audio\ringtones

Then anything in the ringtone folder will show up when changing phone ringtones. Anything in the notification folder will show up when changing notification ringtones
