Sms / email sound

[Panja]

Maybe a newbie wuestion but I can't seem to change the sms / email sounds other than the standard ones.
I have a nice .wav and .mid which I would like to assign to my new messages but I don't know how.

Could someone please help me out.

Thanks

just copy your wave file in the /windows directory and then select it from the phone setting menu.

Thanks for the fast reply!!
Does it only work for wav's?
Because I have a .mid that I want to have as message sound

[Rudegar]

it should also work with wma and mid

:?: Nope ... it did not worked ... for wav, it was fine. Just copy it into the /windows dir.

i did the same for mid files, in fact, i copied 1 wav and 1 mid files into the /windows dir, and i manage to see only the wav file.

initially tot it might be the file name, then i change it shorter, 8.3, watever ... just seemed to read the mid file in the drop down list during notification setting.

the mid file played well when i click on it in file explorer. so the file is not corupted.

so how? any smart advise? soft reset was carried out. no avail.

From what I can tell the SMS sounds have to go in windows/ but the ring tones have to go in windows/ring . There are plenty of programs to convert one file type to another about so if it still won't work a crafty google search should do the trick.
