My mum has a small mp3 file she received via bluetooth. Is there any way she can set this as an SMS notification?
Thanks.

Create /media/audio/notifications
On sdcard and place the tones in notifications folder. And they will now appear in the notification ringtone settings.

Thanks. Will have to give that a try when my mum gets back with her phone. She's been bugging me about this all day!

also create folder ringtones for ringtones and alarms for alarms..
thanks a lot for this post .i've been trying to find how to change native ringtones, alarms, notifications.
gave up finally, but now hehehee going to change asap.;_)))
Or you can download rings extended from the market.
On the original stock Android version there was an option to use an mp3 or wav file as a ring tone, contacts tone or notifications tone.
In ICS the notifications option is no longer there.
Any ideas how to do this?
I have seen on the OS folder where the tones are stored but have not unlocked/rooted yet so cant paste to that folder.
Go to you music folder long press the song and set as ringtone.

As mentioned, I have no problem setting the phone or contact ring tone.
It's the custom notifications tone that I cant set since upgrading to ICS.

Make a new folder under your sd card called media if there not one already.Should be media/audio then a notifications folder and a ringtones folder.Put your ringtones and notifications here.Then you can set anything in these folder as ringtone or notification.I use astro file manager to access the folders on my phone but you can do it connected to your pc as well.
You may even try astro file manager to access the folder you say you can't get to.Works on mine using ICS.

Many thanks. There was a folder on the SD card called notifications. I put the tone in there and then could access it from the SMS settings. I used ES File Explorer.
Not sure how it happened but now when I go to settings and sound in appear to have lost all my ring tones
Does anyone know where I can get copies of the original supplied Samsung S3 ring tones from?
Many thanks.

Is anyone having issues with setting their own mp3 files as ringtone. It is checked in the setting but when receiving a call or notification it doesn't play the ringtone or notification tone I selected.

I'm having the same problem.
Same trouble with unlocked Nexus 6 purchased few month ago from US T-Mobile.
But custom notifications works for 3rd party apps like GMail etc..

Same here. No matter which folder I copy the *.mp3 ringtone into, it still will not play when calls are recieved?? Strange. My N6 is rooted stock, purchased directly from Motorola.
Few days ago I deleted all unnecessery ringtones, notification sounds and alarm sounds from corresponding folders on the root of my Note 8 internal memory. But suddenly, after about a day all those deleted sounds are back. But they are not visible within the file explorer. They are only showing up when I try to change my ringtones and notification sounds. One more weird thing is that almost all sounds are doubled - every sound showing up twice, like it was copied.
I suspect that it may be somehow connected with samsung and google accounts, because I left automatic backup on both accounts. But I can't find those files on any of two mentioned accounts to delete unwanted sounds there too.
Any help?
