[Q] custom ringtones disappear after reboot - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I'm using CM9 skank nightly(04/12/2012) and used Liquidsmooth 1.25 before.
When I set new ringtone from mp3 file or ringtone apps, it works well.
But after reboot, they are not on the ringtones list.
I tried to put the file in /system/media/audio/ringtones, /mnt/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones, and /mnt/sdcard/Ringtones. But all the same. and it happened both of above two roms.
Is anybody knows what's wrong with my phone?

Missing Alarm Clocks

Hello,
After flashing my phone I've lost almost all my default alarm clocks in windows. There is only the sliding sounds, and alarm2, alarm5.. All of these are .wav files. However, all my other sounds in my /windows directory are .wma.. .WMA works fine for setting my IM notifications etc, but when I go to alarms and try to use other sounds they don't show.. I copied the files that were .wma to my desktop, converted them to .wav files and loaded them back into the phone, did a soft reset, and now I can see the files.. however, when I click to choose it, the sound doesn't play and it sets me to default..
I've tired this on about 10 different ROM's for this phone, and its still the exact same problem between all roms.
suggestions?
Try to install "CRCs Diamond Alerts" ans/or "CRCs Diamond Alarms" via "Device Update"
This may sound weird but .. with a couple of roms I flashed my wav files showed in capital letters and made no sound. When I renamed them in lower case they worked! Might this apply?
I upgraded to mightyrom5, fixed the issue.
I wasn't able to find those updates.

Problem setting own message tone

Since I upgraded to 2.2 I haven't been able to set my own message tone. I have the mp3 that I want to use sat on my sd card, but it won't allow me to copy and paste to the notifications file on my phone, and says "insufficient file permissions"
I have tried via HTCSync, tried two different file managers but still nothing. Can anyone shed any light??? I would also like to change the boot up noise but can't do that either.
Generic Stock 2.2 (Orange debranded) if that helps.
Thanks
Searching helps. Put ringtones and notification sounds in their respective directories in the media directory on your SD card. Search marked for silent boot.

Thanks for that, but I want to change the boot noise, not make it silent. I want to use the Xbox start up noise lol.

[Q] add mp3 ringtones

Ih everybody!
I've some problems to add new ringtone to my desire..
I flashed the new oxigen 2.0 rom (gigerbread) and there isn't a lot of choice for ringtones, alarms, ... so I would add some mp3 but..
I tried whit several apps (ringdroid, ringtone editor, ...) and I can't find my mp3 on the sdcard (i tried to put it in /sdcard , in /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones, in /sdcard/music(/audio)/ringtones, in /sdcard/ringtones and some others way). I also tried whit .ogg files but nothing.
I ask to google and find some tips, but they didn't work neither..
someone know how can I do it?
thanks
cya
No need of an app to do that : if you copy your audio files in /sdcard/media/audio/(alarms, notifications or ringtones), they will normally be usable the same way as the ones in /system/media/audio/(alarms, notifications or ringtones)
It works for me on Desire under Oxygen 2.0 RC7.
I also tried this way, but it did not work..

From the native music player you can set it as ringtone.

I tried that way as soon as I saw your post, but it did not work neither..
Actually I find out that I can't add music on the music player.. I don't know why.. I also tried to set as ringtone mp3 and ogg files from astro file manager, I can see the menu option, but I can't select the option!
I think about it and maybe I did a mess when I restore my backup whit mybackup pro (I restore also home config and settings who comes from another rom).. now I'm trying to reflash the rom and I will see...
erase sd card?
Nope.. I reflashed oxygen, and now I'm trying redux, and I still have this problem..
obviously the problem come from my desire, probably form my sdcard, but I don't know what I can do to fix that things..
I also noticed last night that I've a similar problem with the image gallery, the app can't find any image on my sd card, but I've a lot of it..
If I erase my sd card (backing up data apps) can I just put it back in the phone or there is things to do?

[Q] A ringtone I haven't selected rings my phone in CM7

I am using one of the CM7 nightlies, nightly 132 i think. At some point i noticed that a custom ringtone I had created was ringing the phone instead of the CM7 default ringtone. I changed the ringtone to one of the other standard CM7 ringtones. The next time my phone rang it was still a custom ringtone. I went into file manager and changed file suffix so that the file would no longer be seen and hoping the phone would then default to the ringtone I had chosen. Instead the phone only vibrates now. Any way I can force the phone to see the default ringtones.
Like I said before, I'm using CM7 nightly, I think 132 with Tiamet 4.0.x kernel.
i have had the same exact problem since i flashed CM7.1.0 RC1, tried the same thing (deleting the song) and now the phone only vibrates, as well. Just wanted to state your not the only one. Would really like a solution for this, i've tried using the winamp 'set as ringtone' setting without luck, as well....

I didn't solve the root cause of this issue, but to get the ringtone i wanted I copied the ringtone file from the 'ringtones' folder to the 'music' or 'audio' folder where the ringtone i didn't want to ring the phone was stored. I'd already changed the suffix of the custom ringtone so that it can't inadvertently be selected by the phone.
It works, but i still don't know why the phone isn't looking in the correct folder for the ringtones.

[Q] Zedge force closing

Hi all, relative noob here...Had a quick question regarding Zedge. I've been using this app for awhile on my old HTC Hero, and now my E4GT. Just recently, using Calk's ROM 2.7 and now 2.8.1, I've run into an issue when trying to select a Zedge ringtone or notification sound from Settings-->Sounds. When the pop up window comes up (Choose: System Sounds, Zedge) and I select Zedge, the phone freezes for a second then shows the "Zedge process force close window" and I'm stuck with system tones. Same thing will happen if I try to assign a tone from within Zedge. Some times Zedge will work, sometimes not. I've run fix permissions, but I'm still running into the issue. I've also tried using Super Manager to move my Zedge files to the system media folder, but that does nothing either. I have a couple of programs on my phone that help me control programs that are auto-starting (specifically, Android Assistant & Rom Toolbox Lite), but I don't know if those are playing a part in this problem.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Also, if it helps, I'm currently on Calk's 2.8.1 ROM with the EL13 modem and the Rogue Desperado Kernal.
Not sure why you're coming across these problems but i've found it's easier to just make a "ringtones" & "notifications" folder on my sdcard. After creating them, all sounds placed in will be available in the corresponding settings menu.

Should these folders be placed in a specific location on the sd card (media folder, for instance) or simply in the root of the sd card? Thanks in advance.
