Hello All,

I just purchased the MyTouch 3G Slide and I have to say, Android has come a long way since I used the G-1. My question is ringtones. I can't seem to transfer (or at least have the phone recognize) my custom ringtones. They are all in .mp3 format and my Blackberry 9700 had no problem with them. I can't even seem to assign normal songs as ringtones. Am I missing something or does it seem I have to use only T-Mo purchased ringtones?

Thanks for the help!

I had the original mytouch and it is definitely doable... I'm trying to remember how I did it tho... Sorry, a lot of help I am...

Not sure, but I think it is a matter of dropping them in the right folder?

It is doable, I found that I had to use RingDroid, a 3rd party app (free) from the Android market. I appreciate the responses tho!

That is a great app

On the root of the sdcard there should be either a ringtone folder and a notification folder. Drag and drop into there and you should be set.

That's true for the most part, installed apps moved ringtones to the correct folders. I still had trouble getting the ringtones to actually show up in the available list however. RingDroid did the trick.

I really, really wish Android had a community website filled with good people like here at Crackberry.

There are. You just need to find the right community. :-)

Ok. I have the same question. This is my first upgrade from a flip phone... it has been a long time coming.

I can't figure out how to get the app. Help please!

Go to the "marketplace" app, type in "RingDroid" and download. Once installed, run it and all of the music from your SD card will show up. Good luck!
