Hi

Can we do it by callerid ?

You can change the sound notification under Sounds & Notification, once you open Sounds & Notifications go to Notification window there you will be able to change the sounds for different alerts.

And how to add a new SMS sound file to the device? It cannot be done by adding the *.mp3 or *.wav file to /windows/rings folder...

no but you can explore to where you put the ringer, tap and hold it, and choose add as ringer. that automatically puts it into the ringer folder and populates the drop list.

You can add a new SMS alert by putting a .wav file into the /windows folder, and then go to Settings / Sounds & Notifications / Notifications /Messaging: New Text Message, where you can choose your new .wav from the list.

Its not a file your looking for its a folder.

From your device
Open up file Explorer and there is a drop down list at the top left. Choose My Device then scroll down and you will see your windows folder.

From You PC with the Exec Connected.
Open activesync and click explore from the top. Then double click on the first line "My Windows Mobile-Based Device" . Then you should see your windows folder there.
