Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

i havent had a chance to test for myself yet but can we make our own ringtones with the included MP3 trimmer and use those ringtones for incoming text/picture messages? or maybe even email notification sounds?

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

yes .... create the ringtone with mp3 trimmer and copy it from My Ringtones folder to the Windows Folder ... after that you should be able to set your ringtone in the sounds & notifications settings

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Awesome! I was wondering how to do this as well. I always thought there was some folder I had to place the ringtone in, didnt even think about the windows folder

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

That folder didnt work for me,I had to put it in My device > Application data > sounds

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

I put mines right on the storage card, no folder.

you cannot customize a contacts txt message tone if thats what you are asking.

also you can put the tone in
/my documents
/windows
or even "/" (the root of the device) i think. i dont recall where mp3trimmer puts them when you save them.

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

mp3trimmer saves them to My Documents/My ringstones ...

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

actually you can use a custom text message ringtone but not for each contact.


you change the audio to .wav format and then drop into your windows folder... that should work

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

i never had to convert or change the extension to .wav. i use .mp3's on all my tones and they all work.

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Same, Ive actually got both wav and mp3s for text tones

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

i tried mp3s with no luck, had to use wavs myself, but only for notifications. normal ringtones work as mp3s. then again i used audacity to make them, so maybe its different with mp3 trimmer on the phone

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

what notifications are you talking about?
well i should clarify i use a mp3 for a ringtone, email, and voicemail, the rest are default tones on the phone which i will assume are .wav.

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

I use short clips for text messages, I get roughly 20k texts a month, and dont want to hear anything that often. So Ive never used the mp3trimmer. Just dropped a 1 sec mp3 into the folder, works fine

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

You get 600 texts a DAY?:drunken:

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Give or take, Ive hit 30k 1 month :O

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

You CAN actually have specific text tones to a specific contact. The software is called INBOXTONES and it is free. It gives a contact a specific sms tone and email tone. However it does not support MMS.

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

I can't get a custom ring tone to appear on the: Sounds & Notifications > Messaging: New Text Message and in Phone: Voicemail select sections.

I converted the mp3's to wav's but they do not come up on the Notifications Sounds List. Only the default ring tones that came with the phone appear.

I was able to have custom mp3 and wavs for each profile, but just not for general new text or voicemails.

Please help.

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Did you try my device > application data > sounds? That worked for me

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Trying now....

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Bang!

It worked, thx!

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Where can I find INBOXTONES for free? Everywhere I look it cost $.

Thx in advance.







Sorry to wake up a dead thread.

When I was trying to adjust my vibration settings for SMS I noticed the file path is in there... could probably do a search for your current SMS tone in the registry and replace it with another file.

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Well what I am trying to do is, when a specific contact calls me, send me a new text, or a new email I want the same custom ring tone to ring for that contact.

Is there any way to do that?

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Ahh, well that I don't think I can help with (not with my skillset), but I'll be interested if anyone can.

AND if anyone knows how to adjust the vibrate length :) I added a script key and it didn't work.

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Never the less thx for your help.

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Bringing up a fairly old post, but I would also like to be able to do this. Is it possible?

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

Anyone, any suggestions?

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
 

I use photocontacts pro, it again is not a free program.

Re: Does Text Message Custom Ringtones Work?
