Custom Ringtone - Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Hey What's up.
I cutted a scene from a Video (TS format), Duration 0:16 .
Then I converted it from TS to Mp3, Wav, MP4, MP4A
and transfered it to the phone. No matter what format I tried, the file doesn't open, can't change the default ringtone
because the phone does not detect it in Files Manager nor Music.
I tried to open the files followed download paths (where it stored on phone) I recieve Error(1). What to do?

Rebbot your phone, to allow the system to poll new files and list them properly, then use a file explorer (I recommend you use MiX File Explorer as it works best), and move the ringtone you've just made to this directory:
storage/emulated/MIUI/.ringtone/
(Or your internal storage directory) then open settings and it will appear quickly. Ringtones can me *.MP3, *.OGG, or even *.WAV I believe. The reason Music doesn't see it is because in the Music app, it filters out small files and short music so it doesn't clutter up if you have actual music there. Below is a screenshot of the default settings:

WMPmobile Library

Hi
Posting it cause people here can have enough knowledge to help me.
I have problem with library on my htc touch2.
First of all I don't want to use Windows Media Player on my desktop computer.
I keep my music on \Storage Card\My Documents\My Music\.
I also have some wav files ringtones on Device and some wav game files on \Storage Card\Games\.
I want to been able to play music in WMP mobile.
If I clear my library (delete XMEMediaLibrary.mlb) and tried to use files browsing instead of library browsing I can't select multiple files to add to current playlist, is there any way?
If I want to add my music to library I must go to 'update library' with no any directory selection to scan, it result that my library have all audio files from device and sd card. I know I can remove XMEMediaLibrary.mlb from Device to restrict library to sd card only but don't want to have game's audio files in library also.
Also when I put new music on sd card I must 'update library' and again delete .mlb file from device, right?
It's really pathetic! is there any way, maybe some registry tweaks to make WMP mobile library scan only My music directory? it must be something :/
nobody knows any sollution?

how to set some folders to show

is there a way to organize folders for direct access in both gallery and music, so we can see some organized folders in image gallery, and have the option to add some folders to the playlist in music
is there a way to put images for wallpapers in the htc wallpaper preview?
or what is the simpliest way to add wallpaper from any folder?
If you wish to hide a folder from Android simply add a full stop (or a period - US) before the folder name.
E.g - Media --> .Media
If you don't want Android to scan a particular folder, add a file into that folder without an extension, called "nomedia".
E.g - nomedia.txt = Wrong
- nomedia = Correct
good tips but that's not what i want.
what i need is to make some new custom folders and put in there images and music, and let gallery see the images folders, and let music the new music folders, ex. if i paste images in images folder on sd card or in the dcim folder it will not read it, but making a new folder directly on the root sd card with some images will appear in gallery, is ther a way to make subfolders in images folder or any sd card folder appear in gallery and music player.
i want to browse in music player to a specific folder not let it scan what i have.
it seems as one of the weekest point in android, to have the option to browse folders for multimedia is not something easy by native.
i tried a lot of ways to let the device recognise or browse to folders with no success, in fact, music player may browse unfriendly to a specific folder, and gallery may recognize a custom folder on the sd card each time u reboot ur device, but it will not refresh any folders u add, edit or remove, unless u reboot, even force close gallery and then reopen will not do the trick. i tried even (3d gallery, flan, and 3d gallery v2) all have the same no refresh list unless reboot.
SOLUTION:
call it temp or workaround, but it did the trick for what i want and what others may want:
1-music folder (nice browser for music, some will not like the UI, but it's simply a music browser and do what it should do) no eq, no sound enhancement.
2-power amp (advanced music player with good folders support)
3-quickpic (image folder browser, that will do what gallery is intended to do, plus the ability to see all sdcard folders and refresh them at any change with no reboot) and even faster than any other gallery.
this is my experience and tests, please correct me if i'm wrong at any point.

Custom Ringtones setting ???

guys, i have few MP3 & few OGG files which i was using them as ringtones on my previous phone.
in SGS2, i dont know how i can set custom ringtones.... i saw some OGG files in system/media/audio/ringtone folder through root explorer.
i tried copying OGG files into that folder, it allowed me. but when i went to settings/sounds/ringtone.... there it doesnt show up the newly added file...
what should i do ? is it possible to use custom ringtone on SGS2 ? if yes, how & in what format the SGS2 recognises music files....
pls let me know.... i am waiting
Hmmm think the fastest way on a clean phone would be to just play the song in the media player and then "menu > set as > phone ringtone"
Think you can also set then using kies.
Mind you I've only used mp3's so not sure if this also goes for OGG files.
hope it's somewhat usefull
Copy Ringtones to folder System/Media/ringtones . I use super manager .
Format .ogg .
Exit reboot phone .
Go to setting sounds phone ringtone scroll down and then back up for ringtone select new ringtone .

You can actually put them in any partition, even on the memory card, you don't have to root so long as you put them in the correct folder:
Ringtones
/media/audio/ringtones/
Alarms
/media/audio/alarms/
Notifications
/media/audio/notifications/
I believe that any audio format that the phone can support may be used
thanks guys, i played the file & in the options i set it as ringtone. that played the trick. after choosing that mp3/ogg file as default ringtone, it showed up in sound/phone ringtone setting.... till then it was not so...
thanks for you help...
it would have been better to search for list of music files from default ringtone settings....i wish.... its okay....

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You don't even need the media/audio/ folders.
My sd card just has the last folder name, and any files in there show up in the relevant selection menus.

Unable to set custom ringtone

Hi.
I've copied a few small mp3 files to the folder 'ringtones' (which was present in the root folder out of the box). Unfortunately these songs do no appear in the list of ring tones when I choose to change it in the settings.
If I select "add" a list of songs on the phone is displayed, but only those who are stored in the music folder.
I'd rather not have the ring tones stored in the music folder, any suggestions on how to find them when choosing ring tones?
All the mp3-files have worked flawlessly on other android systems (all non ICS).
/r
PS: I've also put a m4a file in the notifications folder. This one shows up as expected under the list of available notification sounds.
Strange, MP3s work fine on my ICS-running Sensation - and I put them in the same folder on my SD card...perhaps they have to be m4a now??
Got it working now.
There was a .nomedia file in that folder avoiding it to get parsed by the music applicaiton on my Desire. I tried to remove it, but that was apparently not sufficient.
I had to connect to the PC, remove all files, disconnect the phone to force update of "sd card" contents, and then connect again to copy back the same files.
/r
Ballache!! But at least we know what to check now! Good find
Install something like Tone Picker.

Custom Notification/Ringtone

I have a custom sound file, wav format, that I like to use a my default notification sound. However I have found an issue with Android on not only my M9, but it has happened on my S3/S4. The file was named approach.wav. I could open this file in any player and it played perfectly. But if I placed it in the notifications directory, it wouldn't show up in the list of available sounds. But if I renamed it to approach1.wav, it would appear.
So is there something about the name approach, that would prevent it from showing up in the list?
No, there are two notification folders, put it in both
