[Q] [REQ] Alarm Ringtone - "Reset" - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anyone extract this for me? It only shows up in the Alarm Ringtones and it is called "RESET". I have switched between ROM's and some have it and some do not.
It would be greatly appreciated.

I have it in my ROM, under Ringtones though. Find a ROM (I'm using Evervolv a19 GingerBread) that has it, extract it (I found mine in /system/media/audio/ringtones) to your desktop, browse to the location of the sounds in the folder you just extracted, drag and drop the ones you want to your SD card, then use Astro or Root Explorer to put it into the proper directory where your other sounds are, and reboot. I just did this today with some sounds that I liked that this ROM I am using doesn't have. Worked fine.

Thanks. Found and copied it! Probably should have tried that first. Figured it was hidden in ROM somewhere.

No problem bro.

Using CyanogenMOD alerts/notifications/alarms

Is it possible to use the .zip of the supplemental audio Cyanogen uses in CM on the G2?
I miss all the notification sounds I used in CM, so I was wondering if it's possible to unpack that .zip to the proper areas for use. I can't remember if anything went to /system, so I figured I'd ask.
Edit: Kinda pointless question now that we have S-OFF/Permaroot/whatever. New topic: Find that .zip!
If its just audio files try placing on the SD card and selecting from there. I've had issues before but downloaded rings extended and it worked. Found this link...hope it helps.

Sent from hell on my G2
I get 404's on the .zip's linked on the page. That's the file I'm looking for, too.
Just open up one of his ROM's and pull them out
I have always put the audio files for each respective folder in my Music folder and they always show in the context menu.
Music\ringtones
\alarms
\notifications
So a folder for each event...you should be able to pull the files from one of the many builds on his site.
If I recall correctly, make this folder structure:
/sdcard/media/audio
Then in that audio folder make 3 folders:
alarms
ringtones
notifications
I know that worked in the past for me, but haven't tried it on the G2 yet.

The zip that you download IS NOT flashable, so you would have to use a zip eztracting program to unzip it. When you unzip it, it has three folders in it (ringers, notifications, and alarms). Then move the files (all, or just the ones you want) in each of those folders into the folders with the same name your have listed on you sd card.
There are a few good free Zip programs on the net if you don't already have/use one. Most are free "trials", but you can still use them to do this!!

[Q] How can I make my MP3 ringtone into a notification sound?

I have this MP3 ringtone that I want to use as my SMS/text notification sound,
but I don't get the option to look for it in my SD card.
The only option I get is to go to HTC hub and download their ringtones.
Running SAC's Kingdom rom version 9
Hardware version 0003
Pri version 1.77_003
Make a folder on your sd card called "alarms" and copy/move whatever sounds you want in there. They should now show up, worked for me.

Won't work.

Did not work, but thanked you anyway.

Found it! I made a folder called "notifications" Thanks for the idea Goth.
Try this.
you have to move the music into the ‘notifications’ folder or create a folder witht the MP3's on the root of the SD card, after you have done that, you can now start to set your own custom text message alert on your HTC EVO
You can use the ringdroid app
Go Bucks!!
yeah sry, i read it wrong. thought u were talking about alarms and not notifications.
/facepalm.
dl the app in market called "rings extended" will let u use any sound mp3 file as a notification.
put it in the sd card under Media/Audio/Notifications.

[Q] Simple, silly, noob question.

Okay, after all this time I forgot about the cool little notification sound that the EVO comes with. CM7 doesn't have it so I would like to know where I can get it or just what file to take it from on a Sense Rom, thanks my friends.
You can download a sense rom, extract the apk/sound file, then place it in CM7; or if you have a sense rom, flash to it, use root explorer / es file explorer, then locate, copy it to the sd card, then paste it in the correct location.
Look in> /system/media then look in audio, notifications, or ui
I think jacoballen22 is asking if anyone knows the location of the sound file or perhaps even the file name. I could be wrong though....

Yes, this is what I am asking and hopefully I can find it cause I'm getting bored of Numb (Piano version) as a notification ringer.

Even after transferring everything to the right spot, it isn't an .ogg file and even when I change the extension it still will not show up.

Where is the file located on the sense rom, and what is the name and original extension?

And using a root file explorer corrupts it? Because the simple copy and past should work; as its not tied into sense as its only an mp3 file.

I see, the part that I do not understand is why are all the CM7 ringers and such .ogg files? and it will not recognize the notification maybe unless I used a trimmer.
I use mp3s for notifications on MIUI, even though MIUI uses ogg files. But MIUI has a different way of choosing ringtones & notifications, which makes it easier.
Where exactly are you moving the file? And are you rebooting afterwards? If the media scanner doesn't run then it may not notice the file.
Edit:
You can also use Zedge to set your notification tones. You may have to move it to sdcard/zedge/notifications to be able to choose it from the app. I'm sure that there are other apps that allow you to choose custom mp3s for notifications.

Thanks for the info cause I just checked and it's in there now. Just needed a reboot lol. Noob life. Well sorta.

Where I should write my ringtones in order to Android recognize them

Hi every, I've downloaded several ringtones using Zedge application as yours should notice in the img1.png attached. I'm trying to change the default tone using one of this and can't see them. Where I should place them in the internal storage (see img2.png)?
Cheers and thanks in advance

Wrong section. Your post is supposed to be in "Q & A" section.
You just need to create a folder "Ringtones" in the internal SD card. Then copy your ringtones to this folder.

You could also put in the system folder if you have root access. I currently have the Skyrocket so this solution might not work for you. I put my .ogg file in /system/media/audio/ and then into the proper sub directory either /alarms /notifications or /ringtones. Then rebooted my system and I could assign them properly. Actually the first suggestion worked for me as well, but I just like having all my files in the same place. So it might work or it might not... i can't say for sure. I subscribe to the nexus development because g/f's mom who has the nexus and likes slim rom a lot.

Nice I'll try your solution later because I need to install some kind of Root Explorer and I've in my PC at home as for the first solution could not work due to .mp3 extension? I'm on GNex ROM 1.9.0 with 4.1.1

Yeah I think that the .ogg will work for sure. I just used root explorer the app to find out what my other ringtones were and then converted the ringtone to that file.
You have to put your ringtones in a folder called "Ringtones". Not just in the internal SD card.

I have a few mp3's and ringtones I got from zedge as well and I couldn't see them at first - you just need to let the mediascanner find them. A reboot will force the phone's mediascanner to do so, or it'll find them on its own in a little bit.

Ringtone/mp3 files will not be available as ringtones unless they are in the ringtones folder. Rebooting the phone won't change that, at least not with the stock ROM.

One reason to NOT put custom ring tones in the /system/media/audio/ringtones folder is that if you wipe your system (to change ROM's, for example), is that the system wipe would then also wipe your custom ringtones. However, if you place them in the Ringtones folder on your sdcard, that doesn't get wiped, and you'll be able to use the ringtones right away after flashing a new ROM, and you won't have to re-copy them onto your phone.

The post before mine had already ascertained which folder to put them in, I was just adding that to force a mediascan of that folder a reboot would do the trick. Sorry for any confusion
install es file explorer on to your phone.
When you want to select a new ringtone, the phone will ask you to either select a "system tone" or "select a file" (using the file explorer)
then you just navigate to the sound file no matter what folder you stored it in (on your sd)
