Until recently I didn’t know that Android allowed for any music file to be set as a ringtone. Actually, I thought that it was forbidden. However, it turns that it is very easy to do. If you want to set your favourite song as a ringtone or an alarm, all you need to do is to create some folders on a memory card and copy the file to a corresponding one. You can then select it.

Create the following folders:

Alarm Clock – /sdcard/media/audio/alarms/

Events - /sdcard/media/audio/notifications/

Ringtones - /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones/

Interface Sounds -/sdcard/media/audio/ui/
