Re: Ringtones directory

I think i can help.. You need to get together all the ringtones, alerts, & alarms on your computer.. Create a folder named Media.. Inside the Media folder, create three more folders named, Notifications, Alerts, & Alarms.. Place all your ringtones in the Notifications folder.. All your alerts for text messages go in the Alerts folder.. All your Alarms sounds go in the Alarms folder.. Plug your EVO into your computer, select Disk Drive on your hand set.. Open up the Phone files,, copy (or move) the Media folder to the other files on the phone.. RESET.. Good To GO..

Create a media folder where exactly? On the sd card?

Did what he said, but make a "Ringtones" folder and put the ringers you want in there and put your messaging ringtones in Notifications. Not sure what to put in the other two just yet, but I'm gonna play around with it and see. I'm new to Android and I'm learning just like I did when I first got my TP!

The one folder house different sounds for the alarm clock and the other sounds for the ui.. Like the camera click or the tick sound you can enable each time you touch the screen

Tried this, didn't work. Notifications and Alarms work, but nothing shows up when I look at my Phone Ringtone section, just the tones that come with the phone.

When I look through my phone using the file explorer app called ASTRO, my new Media folder does not show up unless I'm looking through it to add a song as an Alarm, otherwise this new folder does not show.

Any ideas to for adding a Ringtone? Given I just got the Evo yesterday, so its an brand new stock ROM and all that.

Never mind fellows, seems not having an "s" in Ringtones made all the difference.
