there are several threads discussing this but i got to the point that i am able to move the files change ownership and permission and i can see the tones but they are not sounding like the tone, say if i moved tone a and used it it sounds like a ring instead of the tone a sound.
any ideas, please advise.
thanks y' all
edit: i just need a reboot to see the changes.

I want to add more sounds to the notification set. I know i can add ringtones to the Windows/Rings folder for the phone butwhere do I add sounds for things like a new SMS?
as has been said many times, search search and search again. This is definitely alrady in the forums a dozen times
.wav and \windows folder. Im saying no more.
WAV files required
Put suitable WAV files into the windows folder and that did the trick. They are all available now as notification sounds
Thanks
Where are the sounds (for rintones, alarms, etc.) stored on a WM6 device?
I want to change the alarm sound on my phone and I don't like the built-in list of alarm sounds and want to add my own.
So, two questions:
1. where are the alarm sounds stored?
and
2. what format can you use for alarm sounds?
BTW I want to change my alarm to sound like a standard telephone ring so that I can set it to go off in the middle of meetings to pretend that someone is calling me to let me escape these ****ing wastes of time. It never fails.
In windows folder you will find another folder its name is Rings you can add your fav. files by copy and paste method then if u would like to change tones, you can do that by settings-> Personal -> Phone
oh I forgot!!!!
.wmv .mp3 .... are usually used format
I think for the alarm sounds, you're restricted to just wav (maybe wma but i've not confirmed that) but they have to be in the windows folder, not the rings as stated above.
Cheers,
Smiffy.
you are right Lordsmiff!!!
I am so sorry
I do not know why I chose tones option for alarm

To add further, alarm and notification tones are restricted to WAV format.
Put then in \windows\ folder.

Thanks for clarifying this.
Does anyone have any good WAV "alarms" that sound like telephone calls (ringtones)?
Cheers.

Does anyone know the location of or the name, of the sound files for 'sms sent' and 'delete confirmation', please?
There is no option to change these in Settings>Sounds & Notifications. The files don't appear to be located in the Windows folder either...
Anyone please help?
I'm just getting to grips with my new WM6 device
Is there a way to customize startup sounds or error sounds? I would like to change the sound of those, but can't seem to figure out how. Anyone help with that??
- Just copy any wma, mp3 or wav format file(s) into /windows/ directory.
- Select Settings/Sound/Advanced/Notifications
- Pick the Event you want and select the Ring tone from the drop-down menu
Enjoy~
Thats for the regular sounds....I am looking for a way to customize the STARTUP sound like when you turn the phone on and off and the error sounds. I appreciate the help but I am aware of how to change the regular sounds....just not sure if there is a way to change the start and error.

Jeez, i dont understand why they make it so complicated! Even WM 5.0 Smartphone edition was more fluent. I didnt have to move sound files all over the dam place just for specific events. Why in the hell cant it just let you Point to a file instead of stupidly being locked into one directly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is their a way to somehow change What directory its pointing to at least?
Guess i could just delete all the default sounds and put my own in their (if it will let me delete them)
Any Ideas? is their a way to have the sounds point to a custom location?
Again.. Can you change the pointed directory for event sounds out of the windows directory?
I've been lookin for the answer to this since my sprint mogul
I could be wrong but it sounds like you may need to look at flashing a custom splash screen. You can attach custom sounds to the splash screen to be whatever you want. I'm not to sure about the error sounds. I would assume you can associate an event to a sound file and call it a day.

Just tested this. It can change the general ring tone, but not for each person, and im not sure if i just dont know how to use it, but its realyl diffacult to goto other directory's to find new sounds.
Hi People,
I know this is going to sound really stupid but it's got to be asked.
I know you can change the ring-tones to what ever you want but is there any was to change your message notification tone?
Like i said it's a stupid question.
Thanks for you help in advance.

Go to "sound" in settings and you'll see an option - "Notification sound"
If the audio file you want to select isn't showed there, create a "Notification" folder in the root of your SD (i.e. /sdcard/Notifications/)
I am curious if there is a way to add touch sounds to the system ui media file (system/media/audio/ui). I know how to add and change/replace alarms, ringtones, and notifications. And I know how to change/replace the touch ui sounds. What I want to figure out, is how to add ui sounds. I want to have a sound for whenever apps open. There will be the default touch sound, plus an additional one (like a warble or trill or whatever you want) as the app is opening. In all of my searching, i've yet to find anything on this. Thanks for any help!
EDIT:
sorry if this is in the wrong area. It's a question, but it's theme related so I figured this was the place to post. If not, i'm sure the mods will move it
i think you are answering your own question... or i dont get it
but u are on the right track
make a sound with .ogg extension and copy it to ui thats it
