Is there a way to recover the cm7 ringtones and add them to cm9/ cm10 / oakp on the sdcard ?
Enthusiastic Gio User
Very glad with the work done
But sometimes a pusher for results( nothing bad intended)
Use rootexplorer and copy rintones out off system/media/sounds/ and paste in sd card and on ur other rom just delete the ringtones and paste there the ringtones of the other rom

Or just extract them from the CM7 zip and go from there? (Don't forget to check for duplicates)

Is it possible to transfer wallpapers from one rom to another? some roms have really nice wallpapers but aren't that great while others are awesome but don't have good wallpapers.
I dont see why you couldnt pull them out with root explorer and move them into your sd card. Then when u flash new rom put them in media file folder where other ones are.

that method sounds ideal but I've searched almost all the phone files and I couldn't find them. If by any chance you're using the stock gingerbread rom you could help me look?
You need root explorer (which you need to buy) on market. You open app n go down to rom zip currently installed. Then go to System folder, Apps folder, and look for Cm wallpaper Apk. file. At this point extract them to root of sd card and bingo bango there u go holmes. As long as you have multiple roms on sd card, you can just go into each one and repeat till u got what u want

theres only cmparts.apk :/
Dl rom you want on comp, dl rom with wp you like on comp. Open zips. Drag wp to rom you want, put on SD, flash. There's your walls. Or be easy and add to wp folder on your sd

I have CM7 RC1v2 and I dont know if I´m doing something wrong or what....
I use the normal system app to change the ringtones and when plug the phone to the pc...the sms ringtone just dont work...or when I unplug the phone the ringtone change...
I realy dont know if its a known bug or if I am an idiot and dont know how to use it.
I read something in the DEV post about the ringtones but...when I click the link (in the changelog) the page its down....
Maybe someone can help me...
this is cos your ringtones are saved on your CD card and not your phone, so when you're hooked up to the PC, and enabled the SD card to portable drive, your phone loses access to the CD card. download dual mount SD from the market, then your ringtones wont change while you're copying files to/from your PC
If some media in conflict persistently. Use root explorer goto data/data/com.android.media/databases, delete all file with name "external" and restart phone. New database will be auto created. Reconfigure your ringtone from fresh after the restart.

Thank you...I'll try those things...
Desde el defy loco!!
Here's a fun Mod for those of us who've adopted the E.T. nickname for our Epic 4G Touch!
Must Have Root to Modify!
1. Download the Wav File, copy to Device (if you DL'd to PC)
2. Using Root Explorer, navigate to System Folder, select
3. Select ETC folder (Mount as R/W)
4. Find current PowerOn.wav file and rename (in case you want the original back)
5. Move (or copy to) the new PowerOn.wav file to this location
6. Change Permissions to match (rw-r--r--)
7. Reboot and Enjoy!
►► E.T. Theme Boot Sound ◄◄
As an alternate...you can make your own by simply using any .wav file and re-naming it to PowerOn.wav! You may want to edit your .wav file however, as only a small portion of it will play during boot.
Ha!
*tries to remember what the ET theme sounded like...*
Oh yeah! How could I forget?
i put this on my phone awesome
.wave or ogg?

.wav
10 chars
This is pretty...EPIC. Sick, get my ET4G tomorrow. First mod
Does anybody have the stock wave sound? I flashed a ROM & change the boot sound & I would like to change it back
EDIT: Nevermind, I got it...
Probably semi-obvious, but you can also rename (or just delete) the sound file to have your phone boot silently.
Nice for when you have to constantly restart to alleviate the LOS error and forget to mute it beforehand, or if you just happen to not like your stuff making noise.
Sound Very Low
I changed everything over and the sound comes on, but it is very quite and short. Is this normal?
How long can it be? Seeing as this phone boots in 5 seconds
DARK SIDE!!!!
here is my contribution to the thread, they are .wav files from star wars "You don't know the power of the darkside" and "what is thy bidding...my master" ----of course from Darthvader. perfect size and length, they sound great as boot up sounds!!
don't forget to press thanks..........i don't have any lol
does it have to be a .wav file or can you throw an MPEG 4 file on there too?
Never mind. figured it out... and yes you can put any song as long as you change the permissions too.
Not sure if anyone know's how but I figured out how to basically put any 8-9 second long recording or sound file to your boot animation. you can use ringdroid to edit any sound file to to 8-9 seconds and use the ringtone maker app to send it to your e mail. then put it to your desktop and so on... you get the point.
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)
I have several ring tones and alarm tones I use, and every time I flash a rom, they need to be recopied over. I'd like to learn how to make a cwm zip so I can just add them in to the system/media/ folder easily and quickly.
Thanks!
Why don't you leave them in a folder called ringtones on your ext SD card? That way they are always there??

They are there...but they need to be copied to the system folder to be recognized. Then you need to reset the alarm and sounds to see them.
