Custom Ringtones on HD7 via SSH? - Windows Phone 7 General

Hello, I have a pretty simple question: Can custom ringtones and notification tones
be put on the HD7 via SSH? I know when I had my iPhone I was able to go into
it and add ringtones, change sms notifications, etc. Just wondering why this isn't
an option.

not a programmer/coder/hacker, I'm a tinkerer who stands on the shoulders of
giants. So please, don't be a ****, there's always one in the bunch who likes for
everyone to know how smart he is.

buddy im the same loved the whole ssh on the iphone to change anything you wanted to do tones effectscustomise the screen ..
got tired of the iphone and bought a new hd7 and unlocked it ..
loved it all the windows stuff in 1 place videos music Xbox intregation stuff like that..
than .. freezing phone no updates . bad call alerts .its not the loudest phone in the world either .. found lots of little bugs id didnt like .. lots of them..
brought phone back to shop and am now going back to iphone 4 when it arrives in the shop should be today..whooo who . jailbreaking i love it..
until hackers and other developers jump on this phone it will have to wait for a place in my pocket again..
now i do love the phone and its features its just that well i miss just tinkering like you said and im no hacker myself ..
hope you get an answer .. there is chipron7 or something like that you install on your pc and can side load tones to the phone form that program but its kinda well hard for me anyhow ..
best of luck with the phone mate

to add ringtones at the moment you have to developer unlock it using the chevron program, load your ringtones into their apk and side load it onto the phone.
I would wait and see if they make it into the first update before going through all that trouble.

Official 'Lets find some decent sounds' Thread

Ok, i dont know about anyone else but im getting fed up with the standard ringtones, message tones, notifications etc etc.
This can be the thread where we all contribute to getting everyone some decent sounds on there Hermes!
Feel free to add any sounds for any purpose, im sure someone will appriciate yours!
LoL.. I see you hooked up on rings..
Well.. here I will share mine.. I got a lot more but those can`t be shared since they are commercial..
But the free ones I collected are here..
There is a folder named "Made by Shamanix".. in there are rings that I`ve made out of couple of songs that I like very much ( music that I personally listen to )
They are kinda little too big ( only 2 of them ), but I am not in the mood to edit them now..
Tell me what you think

Enjoy..
Theres some good ones in there matey! The msg one is good but a bit long lol.
Started the thread well!
nice thread... err... i will find some nice ones too and post it here
Here's a little something...
...I put together a while back. It is also a bit large, but it works as a ringtone, and also as an alarm from within PhoneAlarm (where I use it to let me know when my train has arrived at my station).
It is a small clip from the Dark Side of the Moon Album by Pink Floyd ... many of you might remember the bells/clocks sequence just before the song "Time".
That album was always one of my favs, and as such, I clipped this out to use as an alarm.
Hopefully, I'm not breaking any copyright laws by posting it here. If I am, PLEASE Mods, go ahead and delete it.

I like the Nokia dead one.
But does anyone have the same concept but for a regular old school telephone ring?
Anybody back up their WM5 rings?
I'm missing some of the stock WM5 rings (like "fantasy" which I used for phone calls). Maybe someone out there backed up their WM5 files? Or can somehow upload some of the stock from their prior build?
The Windows Mobile Extras site has some free ones that are alright. I use the Halo theme from there. It's much fun.
here some i made for me and the wifey..about 30 of them. Also included 2 message tones: Homer "mail call" and star trek's "incoming transmission

Rename to .wma for the 24 CTU ringtone

The Mods are gonna smack fire out of you for posting that stuff.

Here's my contribution. There over a hundred so there should be something for everyone! Enjoy!!

When I get around to it I'll stick some up that I've found....
Such as R2D2? Robin Williams GMV holler, some of the simpsons and that sort of stuff
But I could do with some basic rings too

Call reject buttons?

I was wondering how easy it might be to add a couple of additional buttons alongside the answer & end ones to send messages to the caller? I thought one could be to say "I'm busy at present, I'll call you later" and the other "I'm driving, leave me alone" or words to that effect.
I'm sure we all have occasions when they might be useful?
Before I became a builder I used to develop databases and used VB code etc but I've been out of practice for too long to get too deep into developing the stuff you guys do. I'd be happy to advise you on DIY though
In case it's important I'm using Duttys HD v2.1 Extreme ROM on my HD. Awesome ROM on an awesome phone, (chucked the iPhone in the sock drawer!)
And BTW I really appreciate the work you guys put into these mods.

You have an options in the Phone settings to automatically send a custom sms when rejecting a call.

iPhone Theme with cyanogen 4.0.4

I know its probably a sin to talk about this, however... Has anyone come up with a bootable theme (meaning not with a 3rd party program ie: ahome, open home etc.)
I LOVE LOVE androids functionality and the Cyanogenmod rom layout, however I love the layout and design of the iPhones face.
Is anyone interested or even thinking about wanting to do something like this? If not i understand (as I said its probably a sin to talk about let alone do)
I just think it would be the best of both worlds... I love androids layout design too, dont get me wrong, just a simple question... (please don't flame)
I'm actually in the process of learning to do themes and what not so i'm hoping if this hasn't been done yet, to put out the first and it will obviously be on the "LOVE IT" / "HATE IT" scale where it will be a hit or miss.
anyways thanks for reading and again (don't flame me, this was a question for those who were thinking it and didn't necisarily say it due to people flaming over it )

I think one of the best ways to achieve the iphone look you're going for without having to go thru the trouble of making a whole new theme is just installing better cut, and then just bring your icons to the home screen and using one of the icon packs, such as tenious icon pack, to give that iphone look. Hope that helps. Just a suggestion

Hey, thanks for your input (and not flaming )
That's a great idea and i've seen it done, however putting all those programs onto the phone really lags the g1 down...unfortunatly Cyan's rom is fast but start packing on the programs and it boggs a great rom down lol.
What i'm trying to accomplish is the entire "feel" if you will of the iPhone;
When you click on "Phone" you will see Favorites, Contacts, Dialer, and Voicemail all at the bottom like the iphone,
also when you click on lets say Alarm clock, you will see the layout of the iphones alarm clock setup.
also the browser setup... androids browser is great functionally however, the layout of the iPhones is much cleaner.
So hopefully if it CAN be accomplished I would like to change all of these things to fit the android with the iphone "feel" almost as if you were using the actual phone itself with a few android goodies

No nothing out there right now with that much customized. I dont think some of the things you mentioned are easy at all to pull off, but Id have to assume if anyone could, it would be the devs here at XDA.
It would be much more than just a theme. All of the things you mentioned would require replacement apps.

As a theme maker I can tell you that what you're talking about (replicating phone/browser/alarm clock layouts) is not an easy task without having to edit the actual code of the apps. This is more of a developer territory, you'd be recreating a new app basically. So...no on what you want to do. You can however use one of many iphone skins available on home replacement apps out there.

[Q] is there a way to get ringtones onto marketplace for ourselves to download?

for free?
i still can get over the fact that i have to give up using my 10 year old wave file for my incoming messages

This will be one of the first things for us to hack I'm afraid. OEMs can add ringtones but I don't think you can download them or otherwise add anything that didn't come with your phone... yet. I have to assume that they'll enable this in the Zune client before too long though.
Was thinking this myself. Have all my own ring tones and those specific to contacts. I'll want to be able to continue to use these

Yeah, OP, I wouldn't worry about it. Hell, I'm still using an old ass FF7 Jenova battle theme for my ring tone, lol! Lemme see if I can find the song..

You can get new ringtones, but you have to get them off the marketplace
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsphone/en-us/howto/wp7/start/ringtones-and-sounds.aspx
As far as I know they are just MP3s stored in a specific location, so once a file explorer or a way of accessing this on your computer is hacked, then it will be possible.
I hope someone figures this out soon. I've been using the same ringtones for 7 or 8 years. I'd even pay for them if anyone sold them in except that I know that they are so quirky (and I guess dated) no one would think of creating or selling the ones I have. I'd even buy an app that let me import them.
so wait theres no way of HTC puttin out a MP3 trimmer and using our own mp3's as ringtones? wtf

ChevronWP7 custom ringtone manager

I didnt see a thread so i just thought i would let people who did already know that ChevronWP7 released their Custom Ringtone Manager Today
you can Find It Here http://www.chevronwp7.com/
lol i was just coming on too see if anyone posted it, Just checked the site before bed randomly and saw that
Whay
Wow...it's a ghost town here. This is big news people!
That's gonna be really really amazing.
THX!
Tried it like 2 mins after they posted it up on twitter and it worked perfect. If there's any Fringe fans out there you may like the attached ringtone. I grabbed it from a rom I downloaded a while back and converted for use on WP7.
Oh my...I still wasn't able to unlock my Omnia7 with chevron-application. Always getting the USB error.
But I'd really like to have my custom ringtones
This works for me. Just dandy!!
For those who like Indiana Jones... 2 different tunes
Basic ringtone
Here is a basic ringtone. No Fur Elise, no Lady Gaga.... Just...
bleeleeleeleep .... bleeleeleeleep .... bleeleeleeleep ....
Was it sooooo much to ask for, that the phone come stock with an absolutely boring, non-personality ringtone?
Only problem I'm having is finding a converter to make them MWV
here you go , its 100% free and worked real well.
You can use (free) Microsoft Expression Encoder.

I tried this one but it isn't one for noob's ( I am that noob and I didn't understand a F*** of it )
Does the ringtone manager allow you to set your own alarm sounds / sms tones too?
No, only ringtones.
And you can only add new ringtones, not modify or delete existing.

Thx I'm gonna give it a try when I get home
Also, I think Microsoft Expression Encoder is free. You can convert.... almost anything to well... almost anything. Definitely to 48Khz WMA.
the ringtone it work.. well i added 5 personal ringtone
Just thought I'd throw this out there for anyone that think otherwise...if you add 5 ringtones through the XAP and then reload an additional 5 ringtones it won't replace the ringtones, you'll get the other 5 (or more) in addition. Don't know if anyone was curious, but I was so I experimented with it.
Seeing how MS blocked/demanded they remove their other hacks, maybe someone should put a backup location for this app, just in case.

It doesn't have to be 48khz. I've loaded a few 44.1khz wmas and Chris Walsh himself acknowledged that 44.1 khz works as well in the comments.
