HI ALL  --  
THIS STILL DOES  WORK BUT IT DOES NOT CHANGE THE NAME OF THE RINGTONE --
PLS READ THE LAST POST'S FROM -> 
pq03icF,
 
 
 
 
SORRY  EVERYONE  BUT  AFTER  THE  LATEST  UPDATE  FROM  ->SAMSUNG/GOOGLE..😤
THIS  WILL  NO  LONGER  WORK  😠

THANK SO MUCH FOR THE 💩💩 XMAS PRESENT FROM ALL US USER'S

AND THANK SO MUCH FOR FIXING SOMETHING THAT WAS NOT BROKEN..... AGAIN  😤

 
This is how i did it  🤕

i downloaded this app on the galaxy wear store called ,, "sorry it is in the google app store "

"  myWear File Explorer  "  ... i have no doubt that other app's will work to

install it on both phone and watch  , mine is a Galaxy Watch4 Classic 46mm - Paired with S10+

open the app and find the files you want on your phone - send them to your watch4

go to your watch , open the app - "  myWear File Explorer  " ,the files i transferred  were at the bottom of all the folders ,not in a folder..... "it is posible to change the destination folder"

tap/hold , they will go blue then tap the 3 dots on the side to copy,,

scroll to ringtone folder, tap to open and then tap the tick to paste them in the ringtone folder,

also paste them to the notification folder if you want to use them

then check to see if it's in the ringtone folder

go to settings/ sounds and vibration, down to ringtone and when i tapped on it

yeppie i got a new ringtone

 i hope you understand how i did it

You may have to turn your watch off and back on

update for everyone ... check out the pic's on page3 / if you do get a bit lost

Now i have over 130+ ringtones notification and alarm sound's after restart

ENJOY

cheers   👍

confirmed file's that this works with -

.mp3 -- .ogg -- .m4a    ,,, have all worked for me and other's...

ps

i've also been told that this will allow you to set custom alarm sounds on your watch,,

and a few have said --

***   a restart must be done to see all custom sounds   ***

ORyNvxs mentioned:

"I didn't see my custom files on ringtone list even after few restarts. But then I switched in sound settings sound mode from "sound" to "vibration" then to "silent" and again to "sound" and my custom files appeared on a ringtone list.

also see the pic's further on in the post's to help you ,, page 3     💥🤕

©️

it will not be long before someone does a youtube video to show you how step by step

but don't forget it was here first

 

i just seen there is a video on youtube but it's rubbish.....2weeks old.....todays date 28/11/21

+++++++++

HI ALL ,, IS ANYONE WILLING TO MAKE A FULL VIDEO OF THIS ,, IF YOU CAN PLEASE DO ,,

AS I'M NO GOOD AT THAT KIND OF THING,,

ALL I ASK IS THAT WHO EVER DOES GIVE'S A SHOUT OUT IN YOUR VIDIEO

I cant believe I'm going to suggest this, sounds like something my father used to say, but try renaming the file without an underscore?

I saw your message via email, about no sounds playing!!!, again it's stupid I know, but check the volume settings?

Hi, yes, have tried that. As I select any tone in the list via the phone, stock or ones I have added, the watch plays the tone selected. But when set to a tone I have added and get a phone call the watch plays the stock tone I had before I set it to an added one.

Hi, the sound plays, but not the selected tone!

here's something I haven't had to do in a while, but what used to work for me, was to have the file in the default transfer folder on the watch, and also in the destination folder, whether it's the ringtone folder, or notification.

 

it also might help to create a new folder at the top tier directory on your watch, and set that as the default transfer folder.

also of course, turning your watch off and on again.

I think my issue is slightly different. Everyting has worked as it should, I have the custom ringtones in the list on my phone and watch, when a tone is selected from the list, stock or my own, it plays. the problem comes when I get a phone call, the custom tone selected does not play, the stock tone I had set before I added the custom tone plays instead!!1704013098099.jpg

UPDATE. So I have custom ringtones and custom notification sounds on my watch. The custom notification sounds work when I receive a message etc. But the custom ringtone will not play when I receive a call, instead it plays a stock tone. I tested selecting the custom ringtone as the notification sound, it works, just not as a ringtone! Any ideas please? Thanks.
