Hi Rich72 and welcome to the forum.


First, to make searching your phone/SD card easier I suggest installing Astro File Manager (free) from the Android Market. It even allows you to move files around.

The place to put mp3s you wish as ringtone for notifications is:

Media > Audio > Notifications


Then in the SMS app, choose that file   

Hi, I am in the same boat as Rich72. I would like to set up a song as an sms alert tone. Problem is I can't find the file path you have suggested.

Here's what I did. Hooked up the phone to my PC and selected 'disc drive - mount as disc drive' on the screen of the phone. I then selected to open files using explorer on my PC. This opens a window on my pc called removable disc so I can explore the files of the phone. That is were I can not find a file called 'media' so then can't find audio or notifications either!

Is this file path one that comes from installing the astro file manager? If it is I then need to load up that App I guess?

Is there an alternative? IE; using the phone handset go to get a song from somewhere?

thanks in

Thank you, creating that file path did the trick.
