SMS Ring Tones ?!?

I just want to know how to change the SMS tone to be .mp3 ??
i've placed the mp3 file under the windows folder but couldn't
see it in the drop-down list of SMS tones !!!

thank you in advance geeks ..

you need to use wav files in the windows folder for it to work

I am not a Geek!

But if I can use MP3 Files as a normal Call-Ringtone, why not also using MP3 Files as a SMS Sound?! :?:

I have absolutely no idea!! does that help?

thanx guys for the help. In my opinion, it's impossible to set mp3 files as sms ring tones, you have to convert them into wav files.

havent tried it but I think you can use wma files with phonealarm

Where did you find a dialogue to select different message alert sounds? I can only find choices for ring tones, not message alerts. I've looked through the phone options and the manual but can find nothing about changing message alerts.

Doh! I just found it in Settings/Sounds & Notifications. It's a shame there is no consistent approach to setting ring tones and SMS alerts. No matter, problem solved.
