How to install more audio ringtones and alerts

From CyanogenMod Wiki

[edit] SD Card install

NOTE:

If you use a 'ringtone' off the SDcard , and the SD card is mounted on your PC. The ringtone will NOT be accessible ... and the caller's ringtone will be silent (i.e. not found) ! Best practice is making your default ringtone a choice which is NOT on the SD card. (i.e. you pick it when the SD card is mounted on your PC and not accessible from phone).

This method will install the audio files on your SD card. The phone will auto-magically recognize the files and add them to their appropriate menus.

1. Download the audio-resources.zip
2. Unzip the audio directory to the root of your SD card.
   • Note: If done correctly, you should have a folder named 'audio' on your SD card, with the four folders inside it.

Reboot or remount your SD card and the phone will pick up the new audio files automatically.

[edit] Internal Memory Install

This method will install the audio files directly on the phone's internal memory. This requires a working adb shell.

1. Download the audio-resources.zip
2. Unzip the audio folder to your desktop.
3. Customize the audio folder as you wish by adding or deleting audio files from their respective sub-folders.

   (Installing the entire audio-resources zip to your phone uses up ~5mb of the internal memory, so you may want to delete some of the ringers you are not going to use. Do you really need 76 ringers, anyway?)

4. Open a terminal window, and remount the phone to allow read/write access by typing:

   adb remount

5. Now copy the audio folder to the phone by typing:

   adb push [/path/to/folder/]audio /system/media/audio

   Linux (example):

   adb push /home/user_name/Desktop/audio /system/media/audio

   Windows (example):

   adb push /DocsAndSettings/User/Desktop/audio /system/media/audio

6. Reboot the phone:

   adb shell reboot
