i got to the point that i am able to move the files to system/media/audio/ringtones, change ownership and permission and i can see the tones but they are not sounding like the tone, say if i moved tone a and used it it sounds like a ring instead of the tone a sound.

any ideas, please advise.

thanks y' all

edit: i think i got it, i messed up on placing them in the right folders and a reboot after all change was done
