THANK SO MUCH FOR THE 💩💩 XMAS PRESENT FROM ALL US USER'S
AND THANK SO MUCH FOR FIXING SOMETHING THAT WAS NOT BROKEN..... AGAIN 😤
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
*** please click the - Like Button... ***
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

This solution has long worked on Android, obviously it will take hours as well. On a rooted device, it was better to copy it to the system / media / audio / (Ringstones, Alarm, etc) folder. It also works, it didn't come as much of a surprise. The downside for me is that notifications for some apps (like Messenger) can be set up separately, but only over the phone. On the other hand, it doesn't sync custom sounds to the watch, so you can't even select them there (that is, on your phone's Wearable app).

hi Gclx4et,,
i had to reset the watch 3 days ago after putting a google WS on my phone,, which is not rooted - thats way i used myWear File Explorer and it was free , and it took me less than 20min's to put it all back on the watch ,, although it did take a long tine to get a the watch face's back on it,, and i total agree with you that it's a bummer you cant use different sound for notifications ..
there's a lot of times i still perfer my old Frontier to this new one,, but that's life.. nothing is ever the way you want it....
oh.. i did say that you can change the destination folder on the watch...

Thank you for such a detailed way of doing this......I struggled a bit with my watch not wanting to play mp3 but sorted it in the end. So pleased I've managed to play other ringtones on my watch......it is Christmas afterall....lol.

oh this is brilliant, I am so over the moon! previously had a third party app on my galaxy watch 3, which was clumsy, but that wouldn't work on my watch 4, this does the whole trick easily, but yes! *make sure you go through your sound settings, on your watch, and cycle from sound to vibration, to mute, and back to sound!
