Where to place downloaded ringtones

[milominderbinde]

There is another thread on how to download ringtones where I posted how I did this. These steps that work if you do not use Astro or have NOT rooted your EVO:

For the EVO, I was not able to see a sub-directory on the SD card called media. So I combined Cory's instructions with the set given to get this. Note I still cannot find how to set the Alert tone.

• Connect your EVO to your computer using the USB cable.

• Open Windows Explorer and click on the drive for your phone (maybe F or G)

♦ Create a directory on the "root" (main) are of the drive called "media".

♦ Within "media" create a subdirectory called "audio."

♦ Within "audio" create subdirectories for alerts, notations, and ringtones:

X: (or whatever drive letter is given to your phone)
- media
- - audio
- - - alarms
- - - notifications
- - - ringtones

• Copy ringtones to the ringtones sub-directory (typically under 30 seconds)

• Copy notifications (email, texts) to the notifications sub-directory (typically under 4 seconds)

• Copy alarms to the alarms sub-directory (typically under 4 seconds)

• Right click on the X: drive and click "Eject" or "Safely Remove"

• From the EVO tap Menu → Settings → Sound & Display
- - Phone Ringtone to set your ringtone
- - Notification Sound to set the notification

I do not know how to set the Alarm sounds. Any ideas?
