/Storage/Application data/sounds

You can put ringtones on the MiniSD card as long as you dont put them in a folder.

This way when you select a ringtone the ones that you stored on the SD card will show up thus saving valuable space on your phone.

Hi I put 3 wma files in that location and when I select my ringtone in settings-sound there all there to select but when I go down to sms alert or email alert I cant select them there just not there, Any ideas what might be wrong?????

As I keep telling you dude, the phone will only use WMAs as ringtones, not alerts.

You can place them in the My Documents folder on your storage card.

if you just keep them as plain wav files, it will let you use them as sms alerts... put em in application data/sounds

someone like myself should know about this but i'm afraid i am stumped :oops: im having trouble with my c500 , i put a wav sound in storage\application data\sounds but when i go to sounds option to change ring tone it doesn't show up, well i do get 2 sounds called arpeggio, 1 being the original that came with the phone and the other actually is my wav file i put in sounds folder! whats all that about then? Have I got a dodgey phone?

My guess is that they are not PCM-formatted.

Windows Sound Recorder (In Programs, Accessories, Entertainment on your PC usually) will save them in this format.
