Default Alarm notifications

Does anyone know how I can get custom alarm notifications WITHOUT a 3rd party program? I tried adding a "Ringtones" folder to my SD card and dropping an MP3 in but it isn't found under ringtones. I'd really like to be able to get some louder tones for the Alarm.

Notifications folder should do for custom tones for messages etc.

An 'alarms' folder will let you set custom alarm tones.

you may also have to reformat your card to get these folders to work. For some it works without formatting, for others the format is necessary.


Also, be sure that the folders (alarms, ringtones, notifications) are in the root directory, not in some sub-folder.

Creating those folders should also keep the music app from looking there for music, so that you don't hear alarms with your music.
