Sorry i didnt explane very well, i was meaning to ask how can i change the alarm tone to a music file or something alike.
normally alarm clock tones are named Alarm1 to 5, choose any music you have in your ppc in wav format and rename it to Alarm6 then put it in the windows directory. Then go to the alarm clock section to set the desired music as alarm tone

If you have several music files to choose from...you don't even have to rename them...just make sure they are in .WAV format ( since this is the only format that seems to be accepted as alarm tones )...paste them in the windows folder...when you go to "Clocks and Alarms" and you click on the "bell", the music files should appear in the dropdown menu.
Hope that helps.

[Q] Set ringtone

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.

how to change text message ringtone to custom mp3 ?

i downloaded and edited a sound clip which is an mp3 but cant seem to set as it as a notication, only alarm, contact or default ringtone show up...anyway to do this?
Go to your music and press and hold the song you want as your ringtone. The menu that comes up will give you the option of using the song as a ringtone. That will make the song the ringtone for your phone for the moment and also put it in the list of ringtones that are available to you in the future.

try this... put the custom ringtones or sounds on the sd card in the notifications folder in the media folder.
The op clearly asked for notification ringtones lol.
Never done it. But id assume moving it tion media+audio+notifications folder would do the trick
Sent from my oh-so-sexy Samsung
just read up on that, thanks homie!
To use custom ringtones for your phone ringtone, your alarm or your text message notification, simply copy an MP3 file to one of the following folders:
/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones
/sdcard/media/audio/alarms
/sdcard/media/audio/notifications
If they don't already exist, then create a new folder.
The file will then show up when you want to change your ringtones.
For Ringtones go to Settings - Sound - Phone ringtone
For Text Messages go to - Settings - Sound - Notification ringtone
For Alarm, set the sound when you add a new alarm
You don't want a song for texting. Goddddd that is so annoying
