It would seem that even with such a simple thing as setting your own ringtones for calls and notifications, Android does not always cope well. I encountered several problems, the solution to which I will describe. I think that these problems may not be encountered on many devices, but I did.
Where to put the melody so that it can be selected in the settings
Melodies are located in three folders:- ringtones - ringtones for calls,
- notifications - notification melodies (for example, SMS has arrived),
- alarms - also for different notifications, I don't know more precisely
After connecting the smartphone to the computer via usb, the ringtone is reset
This happens if the Mass Storage mode is enabled on the smartphone, that is, the internal memory and flash memory of the device are seen on the computer as an ordinary USB flash drive. At this time, the smartphone and its applications do not have access to internal memory, which is why the melodies are reset to the standard ones. In the same way, after restarting the smartphone, the flash card does not have time to connect and the melody is reset. The solution is simple - you need to throw a ringtone to the system folder/ system / media / audio / ringtonesWhen playing some tunes, the smartphone reboots
This happens with some mp3 files. If you convert the file to ogg format (all standard melodies are in this format), then the problem disappears.If ringtones fly off to standard.
If the ringtones you installed after reboot change to standard.
You can often hear that someone has established on certain contacts, or
on thealarm clock, or SMS - a certain ringtone, but after turning off
(reboot)the smartphone, they "lost" and installed again the standard
melodies andringtones.Sometimes even those installed on contacts "fly off", or
on wallpaperphotos.
How to deal with this?
The installation of these very ringtones, or melodies and photos at the same time, helps by 99%,
but,so that they are sure to be in the memory of the DEVICE, and not only in
SD card memory.
To do this, you need:
1. Install the File Manager application on your smartphone.
2. Copy all the ringtones, melodies, photos you need from SD card memory to memory
smartphone. You can do all this by connecting your smartphone to your computer.
3. When installing (assigning) the necessary music or photo, indicate the path to the files you need in
folders located in internal memory smartphone.
Create folders:
alarms (alarm clock)
notifications (messages)
ringtones (music)
in the media and audio folders
