General HTC Touch Noob Questions

[ncsuemme]

I really like my Touch, I've had it for a few weeks now, but I haven't really customized it at all. I'm trying to figure basic things like:

If I cut a ringer in Audacity, and save it in WAV format, how do I save it to the right folder to sync it, and how would I open it up on my phone?

Also, general things like downloading programs (like that ROM posted recently)... is there a basic guide to dl-ing, opening, syncing, getting it on to your phone?

I sorta need an "HTC Touch for Dummies" book. I don't plan on getting too high tech with my phone, but I'm tired of feeling like a dumbass. I just want to know how to put ringers I make (I know how to work Audacity) and software I download onto the phone. Basic things put in basic terms. Thanks!

For ringtones just place them in your My Documents/My Ringtones folder on your Touch. Then select it in the drop down menu under phone settings. Ringtones btw don't have to be wav format mp3 works as well.

As far as a dummies book there are a lot of threads on this forum that should help you, just use the search feature. Google is also a great way to find info on PPC's.

off-topic... I love how the more senior members on this forum do not troll around and damn all the noobs with brandishing; usually that treatment turns people the other way and does not help the situation. Been to many a forum in my time and I give this place the thumbs up. Glad to be a member, hope those answers up there helped, peace!

you can also just place your ringotones and alerts on your storage card, just make sure they aren't in a folder.

I did this and I'm still not getting the whole list of sounds that i have saved there and they are all the same format. Why does this happen? I have a Touch now but my Mogul did the same thing. Please help......thanx!

Notification sounds go in /Windows/ As WAV files only
and ringers go into
/My Documents/Ringtones/ As WAV and MP3 ONLY

just put them in there, and for the sake of it all, just soft reset,
when you go to change the ringtone, it should appear in the list as the
file name...
