Help How to you customize your ringtone on a Nexus 5 without plugging it into a PC?

[SilentLambINTJ]

I have been struggling with this for over an hour now. I want to make this song my ringtone instead of the ringtones which already come with the phone.

If anybody on here could please provide me with detailed instructions on how I could do this, I'd be eternally grateful.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post. A response would be tremendously appreciated!

You have to somehow get the music files over to your computer. If you can't use a computer, use cloud storage (dropbox/box/copy/onedrive etc). Use a file manager (I use ES File Explorer, but any would work) to copy the music file over to your "Ringtones" folder (it should be under "Media" folder - create it if it is missing).

If you download poweramp as your music player, there is an option in the settings to use the current playing song as your ringtone

There are many ringtone maker apps on the play store that you can use to trim any portion of a song into a ringtone.

I agree with Brian... Just search for "Ringtone Maker" in the playstore and it will generate a ton of apps that allow you to cut/trim custom songs in any area throught out the song for a starting and ending point. This is nice if you want a specific line or chorus to set as your ring tone. Some are more user friendly and also allow you to listen to a longer ringtone playback... Like 40 - 50 seconds instead of 20 -25 seconds.
Whorth looking through the available apps in then play store and choosing one that suits your needs.

I used one for a while and it worked perfectly. I'll see if I can remember and post which Ring Tone maker app it was that I was using... It had a simple UI and was very easy to use and I think you'd like it.

Hope this helps and Good Luck! :thumbup:
If I can remember the name of that app I'll post it here for you!
