[Q] file locations

---

ive downloaded some ringtones/notifications and they automatically show up in the respective fields when going to select them as such, but for the life of me i cannot find them anywhere on the phones internal and external memory (i want to delete the ones i dont like). i have a folder setup on my sd card for such items. i know on my desire everything i downloaded showed up in a download folder on my sd card but with the mesmerize only pictures that i download show up there. i've tried locating them with root explorer and file manager but not having any luck. any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated

If you downloaded them from your phone onto your phone, they'll be in your download folder on your sdcard. If it was from an app, that app might have made a folder on your sd card, titanium backup made one on mine.

I know that's where they should go but if I download from myxer.com it automatically goes into the ringtones/notifications under settings and yesterday when I unzip a file that contained sounds it did the same thing. I can't find them in my system memory in the audio folder or on my SD cards audio folder.

try looking in sdcard/media/audio/(ringtones/alarms/notifications)

/system/media/audio

is the location of the default sounds

You could also try running a search like *.mp3 or *.ogg

Tried looking every where I could think of and suggested I even tried searching for then, still no luck locating them. If all else fails I'm just going to do a factory reset just to rid myself of this annoyance.
