My New Samsung Galaxy Phone - Help With 'Ringtone Sounds' Please

[moggie 939]

Someone helped me last year with this and I wrote down how to do it but still cannot work it out!

I have a ringtone I have used for years and it is in 'music' in File Mgr on my phone. I am trying to get it to show in the list of sound options under ringtones so that I can change the default sound I have at the moment but....how to I get to add it to the Ringtone list on my phone please?

When I click on it in File Mgr on the phone there are all sorts of options like 'move' etc but cannot work out what to do - it seemed simple last time an I was able to add it to the ringtone list (think I pressed + in list) and it appeared at bottom of the list of available sounds?

Thanks everyone

On my Galaxy there is a Ringtones folder. Use your file manager to copy the file in question then navigate to Ringtones and paste it.

I seem to recall that I got my choice of ringtone into the relevant folder on my Samsung Galaxy phone by connecting the phone to my laptop (using the USB charging cable) and then using Windows Explorer to move the file.

On my old Samsung I opened my music app and tapped on the three little dots at the side of the track I wanted. The option to set as appeared and  i chose phone ringtone  from  there.

in the file system find the music file then select it (long press so it gets a tick) then select copy. Then got back and find "ring tones" under device storage and select then past in. It will then be in your list of ring tones. You can do all this much easier by plugging the phone in to your pc and using the file system there.
