MS$ Ringtones from WM6 or even 5 looking for cab

[stoker1]

Am looking for Ringtones that came with Dopod official,, or Ringtones that came with other official Roms.. Did search, and see plenty of Custom ringtones being talked about. My Schaps rom seems to have only a small number of Ringtones, and for now don't want to custom make them. Thanks for any links or directions to cabs

These are the ringtones/notifications from the Dopod WM5 Rom (HER_DopodAsia_AUS_1.30.707.4_1.20.31.10_WWE_Ship. exe). They are not in an installable .cab or .exe format, but just copy them to the Windows directory on your phone.

I extracted them yesterday because I like the 'you got message' notification :)

I spent 2 hours looking at posts for placement of new Ringtones. Tried storage card root directory, tried storage card MyDocuments My Ringtones, tried putting them in Windows Root directory, and both .wav and .wma ringtones do not show up in my Phone Ringtones. Noticed that attributes on current Schaps ringtones in Windows directory show that they are in Rom,Windows directory. How can I get these new ones to be recognized? Seems like only ones in Rom might be recognized? By the way,, I had also done a registry change to change location to "Storage Card" instead of "Windows"

Sorry, Mine show up fine when I drop them in the Windows directory - but only when I use them as notifications.

To use as a ringtone, copy the file into the x:\My Windows Mobile-Based Device\Windows\Rings directory. I've just done this with one of mine and now appears as a ringtone.

Put them in \Windows\Rings (its a folder under the Windows Root directory) and they will show up

Tried both ideas, logical ideas,, and know it isn't brain surgery.. Must be something to with attributes of the .wma ans .wav files I am putting in. None of them show up!.. Thanks for your input..appreciate it,, will tinker around some more. This is absurd that I can't do this, after doing Roms,, and already fixing loose keyboard runner this should be a piece of cake.

Problem fixed.
Windows\Rings is the right place to put them, but ...
(a bit of suspence)
ringtones have the hidden flag checked so just uncheck it in property windows (Total Commander rules btw) and TADA they appear as ringtones.:D

Hope it works for everyone.

I had it right,, but the check mark beside hidden,,which I thought was completely empty,, had this faint checkmark in there..I could barely see it . Finally realized that box wasn't completely unchecked. OK now. Now I am going to hunt for more sounds that go in the "Sounds" area in settings. I think I need more of a selection.

I can see the file in the Rings floder now but it didn't shown in the Ringtones list.
Please tell how to do step by step.
And what is the meaning of (TADA they appear as ringtones.) Problem fixed.
