Mp3 ringtones

[Guest digital_dezines]

I'm sure i read somewhere that if you upgrade to the new rom 4.2.1.1 on the SPV C500, you could use Mp3 as ringtone :roll:

I would be eternally grateful if someone could point me in the right direction for a solution, i've looked in the posts but to no avail

HEEEEEEEEEELLLLPPPPPPPP!!!!!

U heard right ,from ROM 4.2.1.1 u can use .mp3 as ringtones ,but as an alternative if u have an older ROM u can use .wma as ringtones as they are almost the same in quality and size as .mp3 files .

Thanks cold, i have tried both Mp3 & wma. Only wav works and that takes mucho memory. am i putting them in the wrong place (storage/application data/sounds)

or should they go somewhere else. Also, not sure on everyone elses view on MP10 but i prefered the other version, i found it easier to navigate

For SMS it does not work for me either ,i thought u meant call ringtones .

do you have betaplayer installed, i had problems getting mp3's to work until i went into betaplayer and removed it's file association to mp3's, they now work fine. :)

[Guest b0bby]

yeh im trying to do SMS

iv sorted it now, via reg.

HKCU/Control Panel/Sounds/SMS/

string: Sound

in value just put the complete location of the Mp3 (not tested with wma)

so for mine iv got,

\Storage\Application Data\Sounds\mysmstone.mp3

btw, if you go into the sounds menu and change anything, it will over write the above reg entry, so ull have to do the above again.

Hi Guys/Gyals, soz for the delay in reply, PC problems, Anyway I have now got the Mp3's working as ringtones and wma, however i cant get them to work with SMS either just calls, the only 1 thats works is wav, I dont see this as a prob really as an SMS alert tone only needs to be 1 second so it don't take much space. It would be nice if orange on the next rom update included this function, for the moment it's not a prob for me, dunno about anyone else?
