Unable to set own ringtone.

Hi,

I'm trying to use my own ringtones but i don't see them in the list.

The ringtones are in the ringtones folder in the internal storage and are in .ogg format.

When I try to add ringtone using the add ringtone function nothing happens and a it creates a duplicate file in the ringtone folder.

Use .mp3 format files.

If you want to use your own sounds, create a folder in the storage root called "Media", and inside that create another called "audio", and inside that, create 2 called "notifications" and "ringtones".

Then just put your sounds in either folder, and you can select them from the Sound setting on the Xperia 1.

Some apps and programmes will let you change the sounds, or tones, others will not, unless you used a 3rd party launcher, you are at the programmers mercy.

the folders you think you are using, are incorrect, and the real ones are actually hidden, and you need to be rooted to use them, but this way, you can use your own tunes.
