Hey guys, does anyone know how to set the sms into my own sounds for P3300? I try many times but still do not know how to save the file under which directory.....help please...
you have to change the extension of the file and then should put in windows folder to access that file for sms
Thanks for replying, dude.
What should I change on the extention if it is a MP3 format? And where should I copy to?
Thanks.....
SMS tones need to have a .wav extension if I remember correctly, and placed directly in the windows folder.

Ok, so I have a sound I want to hear when an sms message arrives, and I converted it to *.wav and put it in the Windows directory. How do I replace this sound with the original sms sound?
edit:
I think I already know. Once you've put in the windows folder it automaticly is shown in the list where you can change you ringtone sound, incoming mail sound, etc.
Maybe this is a better way
Just install this application and you have done it

I want to take 1 Alert tone from the Dopod C730, and install them in my S630. Can this be done? The alerts says, You have a message. Attached is the file, it is labeled play list 2. It was the only way that I could copy them from the C730, but although it says it is a WM file, I can't get it to play.
Thanks for your help.
try to go to \application data\sound on your dopod c730 and here you can find all the tones used for allerts not for calls.. there should be one called SMS copy it into your sd and than in your pc..

Just transfer the desired files from your PC to your device via ActiveSync. Place the files in the 'My Documents' folder.
Go to Start -> Settings -> Sounds. Then just change your ringtone and SMS message sounds to your newly acquired sounds.
or you can make a folder on your storage card for you ringtones and name it My Ringtones.

Thats what I did and it works like a charm...
for some reason i've never been able to change my sms ringtone to one that i've put in the phone. is there anyway to fix that?
For SMS, ringtones have to be in the Sounds folder. Not in your My ringtones folder.

...which is why I stated to place all tones in the 'My Documents' folder.
...but like mikey said. unless you intend on placing your ringtones (or any tones for that matter) on your SD card. the "\application data\sounds" folder is the best place to put any tones.... whether it be for notifications, ringtones, or sms tones
How do you change "new txt message" sound?
How do you change "new txt message" sound?
Tried moving it to the my documents folder with the ringtones and windows system folder, but the file wasn't recognized. Tried mp3, wav and wma formats.
Like to change the new txt message sound to something else, but not sure how to get it recognized.
thanks.

Found it and uploaded some new sounds. Thanks!
I know it's possible to make any song on your sd card into your ringtone but can I do it for message alerts and other notifications?

Was hoping that wasn't the case
Many thanks amigo
u can google super encoder and it will do the job for you
The wav file needs to go in the windows folder, not the ringtone folder.
I folllow the steps like these:
to set our own sms tones
copy the mp3 or wma file to My Documents
do the following reg edit to set the new sms tone
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\SMS]
"Sound"=String:\My Documents\test.mp3
test.mp3 is the file copied to my documents folder
Click to expand...

but,tones is nothing
I don't know where is the mistake
sorry for my poor English.

Hi,
The way I do it is as follows:
1. Make sure your phone is unlocked (Chevron unlocker)
2. Choose your tone and convert it to WMA format and rename it Alert-01
3. Use Chevron ringtone installer to convert it to a xap file and then install it
either with the microsoft tools or Tom Xap installer.
4. Install Touchexplorer xap to your phone.
5. Now when you go into the menus you will see Chevron ringtones, click on this
and it will show the ringtones installed, your will show here.
6. Go into Touchexplorer and navigate to "My Documents" and then MyRingtones"
7. Copy these files and navigate back to the "Windows" folder (takes a short while
to open)
8. When it opens paste the files in the folder, it will ask to overwrite the
existing one,but as you don't like them it won't make any difference.
9. Now when you go to "Settings" you will be able to choose the alert you
installed, just remember what number you gave it.
The same method can be done for Alarms.
This has been posted before but I can't remember exactly where in the threads as it took me a while to find it, but thanks to the original poster (you know who you are)
Hope this helps, and I have got the details right.

In the seetings it would show nothing but the custom tone is assigned.
When u receive any sms u will hear the custom tone which u set eventhough it shows nothing in settings.
