I recently added a new ringtone on my Samsung Galaxy 6S. When I select a ringtone, then power off the phone and turn it back on, it defaults to only ONE ringtone ("Sparkling Melody"), which I don't want. As long as I don't power off, it does retain my selected ringtone, but how can I change it to use the ringtone I select when I do power back on?

Where is the ringtone file saved? Make sure it's saved to the Ringtones directory.

It should be in the main user directory of Internal Storage. Technically, it's /storage/sdcard0/Ringtones (or sometimes /storage/emulated/0/Ringtones).
