How to install ringtones on your HTC Incredible S


We show you how to install ring tones on your handset quickly and easily

HTC Incredible S

Published on Mar 24, 2011

The HTC Incredible S  comes with an interesting selection of ringtones. While some of you may be contented with the pre- existing selection, others may like to have a wider selection.

Luckily for you, installing new ringtones on your handset just couldn't be easier.

In this guide, we show you exactly how it's done.

First select ringtones you like and ensure that they are DRM-free MP3 files. Typically select files which are 30-seconds or less in length. If you do like something which is longer, don't sweat it out, simply download the free audio editing software such as Audacity and clip it down till 30 secs.

After you have installed your favourite ringtones on your computer:

   1. Ensure your microSD card is in your HTC Incredible S, then connect the phone to your computer using the supplied USB cable
         1. If your HTC Incredible S does not mount automatically, touch the USB icon that appears in the menu bar at the top of the display, drag it down to expose the Android Notification Pane, then tap on USB Connected and select Mount (or Disk Drive)
   2. Using a file explorer on your computer, navigate to the root folder (the main directory) of the memory card in your HTC Incredible S
   3. Create a new folder called ringtones (some devices require a lowercase "r" so please name the new folder exactly as specified)
   4. Now, simply copy all of the MP3 ringtones you want on your HTC Incredible S into the new ringtones folder

To set one of your new MP3s as your ringtones:

   1. From the home screen, tap Menu then Settings
   2. Tap Sound, then Phone ringtone
   3. Scroll to the ringtone you want, select it and then tap OK

You are done! Wasn't that easy?
