Hi
Edited a WAV file and stored in my storage card. It plays OK in my XDA2 but when I tried to use it as a ringtone for the phone, it does not play any sound other than some clicking noises.

Please help.

make sure your wav is PCM.. xda II doesnt support all formats of wav.

Is there a utility to convert this to PCM WAV format? Thanks.

To convert WAV file so will play on XDA2, use the windows utility Sound Recorder: sndrec32.exe

Open the wav file in Sound Recorder.
Click File -> Properties
Click Convert Now button
Change Format combo to 'PCM'
Change Attributes combo to 11.025KHz, 8 Bit, Mono

You don't really need more than that as XDA2 doesn't play stereo.
