Sound files

[Geezerb]

Confused! I have a sound file on the SD card that I used to use for the notification sound of my prior phone (shift). All the sound files need to be in a dir under system, notifications. I tried copy paste via Astro but the permissions prevent the paste action. How do I get the file moved to where the LTE is expecting it?

Settings>Personalize>Sounds>Notifications>Ringtone>Add --You should be able to add it to the list of default sounds this way and use it as a Notification sound. you have to go to Ringtones because Notifications doesn't have an add button, but what you add there should be available everywhere. Hope this helps, good luck...

It shows up as a ringtone choice. But when I go to settings, sounds, default notification, it is not there. That's my problem.

You can also try doing the same thing through the Alarms menu, but I have done this before and had no problem, sorry it's not working for you, I hope you can figure it out.

Do you own this phone? If so, try what I am explaining & post your results. All I want to do is change the default system notification sound to my own file.

Solved:
After failing to copy via all file explorer apps, I connected to my computer with debug mode on. I was able to copy paste to the notifications folder & now the phone lists it as a choice. I made it my default & all is well. Lot of work for a simple task?
