So, I was a good girl and read my Hero's guide AND looked in the Tips and Tricks sticky trying to figure out how to add ringtones that I created and have on my laptop's hard drive. Alas, I am now posting for MORE help.

This is what the Tips thread said:

To add new ringtones or SMS alerts, connect your Hero to USB and mount the device on your PC. Browser to the following folders:

Ringtones: /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones
SMS Alerts: /sdcard/media/audio/notifications
Alarm Alerts: /sdcard/media/audio/alarms

However, I cannot find the media folder. Or maybe I have not even gotten to the sd card! I was able to add wallpapers and actually use them, so I did something right along the way.

So, if anyone wants to help a new android girl with this probably very basic task, please do!

Thanks in advance.

PS: I also synced all my contacts and my calendar from my GMail account. So, not 100% lame.

Create a folder called media.

Inside that folder create one that says audio. **this step may not be needed but is how mine is set up**

Create 3 folders called: ringtones, notifications, alarms.


Drag and drop tones from your computer into the appropriate folder.... That's it!

Here's how I set it up. I just put 3 separate folders on my SD card called, ringtones, notifications and alarms without the media or audio folders. Make sure the folder names are not capitalized.

Use Dropbox to store, share and sync all types of files from multiple devices. The first 2GB is free and get even more free space from referrals. If interested, please use my referral: http://db.tt/Uw2zTbP Thanks.
