Look in this forum for Vip PIM Ringtone from Vipul Patel.
This FREE application will set ringtones according to contact categories. It searchs the entire contacts database and sets the ringtone in each contact file. So, it runs once and does not sit in memory like some other applications.

Adding New Ringtones/SMS Notifications/Alarms
To add new ringtones or SMS alerts, connect your Desire to USB and mount the device on your PC. Browser to the following folders:
Ringtones: /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones
SMS Alerts: /sdcard/media/audio/notifications
Alarm Alerts: /sdcard/media/audio/alarms
Copy your mp3 files into either of the folders above. Then go to:
Ringtone:Settings > sound and display > phone ringtone
SMS: Settings > sound and display > notification sound
Alarms: Set the sound when adding a new alarm.
Then select the ring tone you put in the above folder(s).
after you set those folders on your SD card .. your own mp3 will show up in the phone default ringtone menu..
______________________________________
also if you want different ring tones for different groups.. use this application
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.appventive.groupring
you can also find it on Android Market...
please keep us posted if any of you guys find a better application than the one i have found..
thanks..
enjoy
peace.

This may seem like a very dumb questions but...

How do you set custom ringtones?
I added some music files to my phone into a folder in my SD card called music.
My phone plays them just fine, but when I go use folder explorer and go to the song file and long press I don't get an option to set it as a ringtone.
Also, if I go to the option of choosing a ringtone, my choice is only of those default ones.
I am running CM 6.1.
thx!
In Music, long press on the song and select 'Use as phone ringtone.'
You could also put any songs you want specifically as ringtones into /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones
download ringdroid from the market
Omg the solution is so simple.
I almost want to cry.
Thanks though!

Just create this directory on the sdcard: /sdcard/media/notifications/ then put any music file you want in there and it'll be a notification tone. Same for ringtones, just make another folder called ringtones instead of notifcations. Also, download the app called ringdroid, and you can copy bits of a song as a tone.
[sig]I'm close to rooting, i have to see if its messed up first [sig]

Each email account, under settings just put in the notification sound. Do the same for everything that has notifications. You can pick phone sounds or ringrtones.
All notifications can be used with everything. The same tonesare available for text, emal, facebook, etc. Use a pc, or download astro file manager to create the directories

I personaly use "ringtone maker mp3" from the market. It let's you load music files from ur SD card and edit them to ur liking and save them as either notification/ringtones. After u have saved some ringtones/notification tones, just go to ur contacts, chose a contact and under "edit" u should see a "set ringtone" botton to select a ringtone for that contact. Don't think u can adjust the volume for every custom set contact ringtone, it'll use ur default ringtone/notification volume level. Hope this helps somehow

thanks guys!

Is there a way to make my own ringtone/text message sound?

Ideally I'd like to change my ringtone to a song and I'd like to make my text message notification the brief piano intro to outkast's roses. Is there any easy way to go about doing this?
Thanks!
in your sd card there are folders called 'Notifications' and 'Ringtones.' put the respective sound files (they should be in m4a format) where they belong. reboot and they should appear in the settings under sound.

if you have the .mp3 file i suggest using ringdroid then edit the music file to where you want it to start and stop :good:

MP3 ringtone maker works great for me. It's free, lets you search and download songs within the app and has a great editor for cropping in/out points. What more could you ask for?
if you need the ringtone to repeat, I believe it has to be in ogg format and you need to add a parameter to it in the id3tags to tell it to repeat. I did this on my ex's Galaxy Nexus S. I am sure there is more info on this in the general section of the android forums.
Here is a link to the topic I was talking about:

I've always used audacity on my pc to make the ringtone, then copy over to ringtones/notifications folder

but did you use the ogg format and add the metadata???? I know this works as I used it for the opening bars of Linkin Parks Numb for my ex and it works awesome.

Open the File manager app pre isntalled, called my files i think, go to all files > sdcard > scroll down to Zedge. Check the Notification folder or Ringtone folder and make sure the MP3s (i think thats what Zedge uses) are in there
Yeah. ..the tones are there but when I go back to setting the ring tone, zedge tones are not an option for some reason?

You know I don't care for that Zedge app anymore because of the fact that since 2010 they have yet to support freakin landscape mode especially on a device like this or my old epic 4G which had a keyboard which was so much easier to use in landscape mode yet they don't have to support for it which is beyond me.

i don't want to sound rude but just try something else it clearly has issues since development which means years and they still don't want to do anything with it, not to mention the ringtones are all the same since it came out. the wallpapers aren't even HD, list goes on...
i'm not sure why you're having this issue just try erase the cache in app settings and redownload it
