The default ringtone on ruby, it sounded like an 8 bit ballad. I assumed it was default to AOSP however it's not on Cyanogen. Can somebody pull it from the ROM and upload it for me so I can use it as a ringtone in Cyanogen?
(.zip or .mp3 preferred)
I don't use the default ringtone so I'm not sure which one you mean. I just zipped up all the Ruby ringtones. They are in ogg format. You'll have to convert it if you want it as an mp3.
rubyringtones.zip
Thank you, I"m using the ringtone now

When I flashed Ruby 1.1.4 the default ringtone was called something like 'de mari...something something' it was a 8-bit song
I had assumed it's a ringtone from the default AOSP ringtone set however when I flashed Cyanogen 6.1 it wasn't there. I was wondering if anyone could help me pull the ringtone from the ROM so I can use it where ever I want.
Or could you pull the ringtone and share as a .zip or as a .mp3?
all system sounds (ringtones, notifications, alarms etc.) are in /system/media/audio in their respective folders. just download the rom and open up the zip to find them.

Here is a link to ring tones from cm6.
This may not contain the ring tone file you were looking for.
So I have a few customer ring tones that I transfered over from my EVO 4G. They are in the Mp3 format and I am able to set the ring tone on an individual level, but I cant set it as a default ringtone.
So how does one set a customer ringtone that is an MP3 as the default ringtone?
Notifications as while?
Much Obliged for all of your help in advance.
Go to settings, then sound. You'll be able to set phone ringtone as well as notification ringtone.
I should have said that I have already tried that. There is no option that lets me pick the sounds that are on my SD card.
For example when I go into my contacts list and go to ringtone, there is three options, Default Ringtone, Select sounds from My Files and Phone Ringtone.
Now when I go to Sounds it just gives me a bunch of generic sound files. Nothing from my selection.
you just move the sound file to the /media folder using any file manager app. Then it should show up in the list of sounds when you set your ringtone. The same steps can be done for notification sounds. If you're confused, there's plenty of youtube video tutorials showing you step by step information.
I do it this all the time, I create custom ringtones with Audacity (cut out the chorus and fade the track in and out so it sounds cleaner). Right now I have the Jetsons door bell as my notification sound
Just a wild guess that you didn't put your custom ringtones in the proper file location on your SD card.
You need to create a folder called "media" (no quotes). Inside that folder create a folder called "audio". Inside that folder create 3 separate folders called "alarms", "notifications" and "ringtones".
Place your custom ringtones in the ringtones folder, reboot (not sure if that's necessary) and your customs will show up.

Thanks alot guys. That was exactly my problem, I did not have the media folder.
Wasn't exactly sure where it should have gone so I used ringdroid to create another Ringtone and it place the media folder along with the Ringtone folder on my SD card.
Always amazes me how simple a problem can be resolved if you have one price of information.
Thanks again. You are the best.

DO I have to have the same ringtones on all the folders so I can place custom ringtones in say text email etc..?
thanks
if not where are the text ringtones located at? I did a search by name and nothing came up though I have ring tones to choose from
thank you again
You can always download RINGDROID from the market. It lets you "trim" your mp3's and set them as default/contact ring tone or notification.
So far that is the best way I found to work in my phone.
According to FAQ thread, I need to use 3rd party app to set an mp3 as a caller ringtone. Can't I use the native android music player and "set as" just like any other android phones? If this is the case then Imma go pee pee on electric fence... *sad face*
Anyone can confirm this?
Go into People app, click menu button, select Set ringtone...
... it's that simple!
Edit: Well, it's that simple if the mp3 you want is in the ringtone directory - it doesn't pick up ones from your regular music dir.

So you're saying that in music player, there is no "set as " option? Well, that is silly :/
Another alternative is to install GoSMS Pro (free from the market) which ids a great sms app.
The added bonus is that when you go into your contact and select 'set ringtone' you can choose GoSMS instead of Android System. You can then choose between default ringtone, current ringtone, system ringtone or MUSIC which will let you select any mp3 file from your music folder on your phone.
Mark.
In pre-ICS Android, one could place a file Media in de sd-card. Within that file you made the file "Audio" and in that one you made 3 other files: "notifications", "alarms and "ringtones". In those last 3 files you put the mp3's.
Does that strategy still work in ICS, or can you only put custom mp3's as e.g. ringtone, via a third-party app?

You can just stick mp3's in the pre-existing Ringtones folder. The "problem" is that when you pick a ringtone through the standard interface, it only looks there and NOT in the Music folder.
Does anyone have any sensible explanation as to why they remove "set as" option in music player?

Unfortunately, in ICS, this only lets you add audio files for the ringer. The added files do not show up when trying to select a notification sound for SMS and e-mail. I still haven't found a way to use custom notifications for these things yet.
Drop your mp3 ringtones into /sdcard/Ringtones and reboot your phones. They will then be available in Settings/Sounds/Phone ringtone

The music player is for playing music and not setting ringtones. Doesn't seem silly to me.
Plus not many people want a ringtone that's as long as a song. (3 to 5 minutes)
ringtones go in the ringtones folder, notifications in the notifications folder, alarms in the alarms folder, tis easies!
But...
has anybody noticed custom ringtones only play once?
i have a ringtone that's 3 seconds long...plays it once and then stops :| bit annoying...
EDIT: After googling around a bit i've found the solution to that myself!
I feel like I can be helpful for once. It will loop ringtones if you convert the mp3 to OGG format, and in the file info (you can edit this in Winamp for example), create a field called ANDROID_LOOP and set the value to TRUE.

I always use audacity to loop my ringtones myself
Has anyone figured out how to use your own audio files for all of the different types of notifications? I have a few .mp3 files that I've used on all of my previous Android phones that I'd like to continue using. I put them in the "Ringtones" and "Notifications" folders that were initially on the phone. After I did that, I was able to select them as ringtones for the ringer, but they don't show up as options for SMS and e-mail notifications. Any ideas?
Try converting the ones in the Notifications folder to m4a files, they work for SMS and email notifications for me. Could also be the length of your files.

or just install zedge from the market. Thats not your own ringtones, but there are good ones too..
Ringdroid is a nice application for this, it works quite well and you can just uninstall once you convert your audio files to notifications, ringtones, or alarms.
Thanks for the tips. The files are very short, so it's not the length. I also looked for Ringdroid, but I can't find it in the market. There's something called "Ringdroid (Social Edition)," but this doesn't look like it's the right thing. When I get a chance I'll try converting the files and seeing if that works, although I do find it strange that my mp3s (they were from a pack a downloaded a while ago called "RCP Ringtones) are seen when selecting ringtones for the ringer, but not for notifications.
No idea why it's doing this, but every ringtone amd notification I set from the app Zedge is automatically reset to default when I restart my phone. It's only happening with the individuals I set it to. Any ideas?

I don't know if this will help you or not. If your rooted, change the file extension of the ringtone from .mp3 to .ogg then select what ringtone you want to use. Are you using a particular app to set ringtones other than zedge?

Why would they need to be rooted to change the file extension of a file that they downloaded?
As for the OP's problem, figure out where the ringtones are downloaded to, move them to a folder called Ringtones on the root of your accessible internal memory (if it's not there, create it) and move the ringtones to that folder. Then you can select them in your phone settings and/or the stock contacts app. Zedge is a great app for getting ringtones and wallpaper, but it's not so good when it comes to applying them. I don't think it has been updated for android oreo.
