Hey guys, does anyone know how to set the sms into my own sounds for P3300? I try many times but still do not know how to save the file under which directory.....help please...
you have to change the extension of the file and then should put in windows folder to access that file for sms
Thanks for replying, dude.
What should I change on the extention if it is a MP3 format? And where should I copy to?
Thanks.....
SMS tones need to have a .wav extension if I remember correctly, and placed directly in the windows folder.

Ok, so I have a sound I want to hear when an sms message arrives, and I converted it to *.wav and put it in the Windows directory. How do I replace this sound with the original sms sound?
edit:
I think I already know. Once you've put in the windows folder it automaticly is shown in the list where you can change you ringtone sound, incoming mail sound, etc.
Maybe this is a better way
Just install this application and you have done it

Just transfer the desired files from your PC to your device via ActiveSync. Place the files in the 'My Documents' folder.
Go to Start -> Settings -> Sounds. Then just change your ringtone and SMS message sounds to your newly acquired sounds.
or you can make a folder on your storage card for you ringtones and name it My Ringtones.

Thats what I did and it works like a charm...
for some reason i've never been able to change my sms ringtone to one that i've put in the phone. is there anyway to fix that?
For SMS, ringtones have to be in the Sounds folder. Not in your My ringtones folder.

...which is why I stated to place all tones in the 'My Documents' folder.
...but like mikey said. unless you intend on placing your ringtones (or any tones for that matter) on your SD card. the "\application data\sounds" folder is the best place to put any tones.... whether it be for notifications, ringtones, or sms tones

How do you change "new txt message" sound?
Tried moving it to the my documents folder with the ringtones and windows system folder, but the file wasn't recognized. Tried mp3, wav and wma formats.
Like to change the new txt message sound to something else, but not sure how to get it recognized.

I want to use a custom sound for incomin mail. No Problem, copying the file in the windows directory and selecting it in the advanced settings.
This is working for a few times, but then the sound file is corrupted an even soundfiles never played are corrupted.
Can I try any other folder or does anybody know another solution?
does nobody have the same problem?
Solved
Hi. I had also these problems but then I solved my case by noticing that I had to rename my sound files. You can only use small letters with sound file names copied in Windows folder (example: sms.wav => NO SMS.wav). After this I got my custom sounds work fine. I hope this helps you, too.
i have a similar problem. I am using a .wav file in the \windows\rings folder as ringtone. From time to time the ringtone gets reverted to the windows mobile standart one, and i have no clue what causes this. The .wav file itself in my case remains intact. i just have to select it again in settings ->phone.
Try placing your sound files in this folder:
My Device\Application Data\Sounds\
