Hi all,
i can't add a notification sound neither mp3 or ogg.
I put files in many folders and can play it directly with file explorer but i can't set in "default notification sound" because the music app didn't see the file.
I've read many forums where they say to turn off filters in music app but i can't figure out how.
My phone is a xiami mi4 with miui 4.10.17.
Thanks in advance.

I just recently flashed Oxygen Rom and restored afterwards with Titanium Backup. Now i have notification sounds and ringers in my music player (stock google music app).
Can i just delete these out of the music player without having them disappear completely, so my phone can still use those notification tones & ringtones? Or is there a better way to remove them out of the music player.
I do have another question, when i restored with Titanium backup and then updated the Google Music app (icon is headphones), now i have 2 stock music players: 1 with headphones as an icon, 2 with the blue speaker as an icon. I don't remember it doing this with stock rom, it just replaced my "blue speaker" icon with the "headphones" icon.
Thanks for the help!

bump....any help on this? thanks
If you are talking about the custom ringtones, put an empty file called .nomedia inside the ringtone folder. I'm not sure about system's default ringtones, I've never seen them appear in the Music App before.

Thanks for taking the time to look at my question....unfortunately, yes its the systems sounds and notifications, not just ringtones, that are all showing up in my Music App.
It's just annoying to have all those sounds in your songlist.....thanks.
Anyone else had this problem before?
There is a default setting ringtone in my LGO3D. How to change customize that to use my own mp3 as a ringtone? Is it possible to set individual ringtone for each contact?
Thanks.
custom ringtones
I created a directory in mnt / sdcard that I named it audio, then I created ringtones directory in it, I put mp3 files there and then reset the phone, mp3 files appeared in a selection of tones
I manage to make it appear in my ringtone selection by placing the audio files in sdcard/media/ringtones. But now it make the audio not appear in music player. Default music player require it to be placed in sdcard/media/music folder.
Is there a way to make the ringtone files able to be browse and select? Any app recomendation? I tried ringo. But the audio files need to be places specific in the sdcard/media/ringtones.
I go into my music press and hold an mp3 song you want at it says use as ringtone
dno if that helps
this works
look on the market for "ringtone maker" it is free and you browse for a song on your library and then crop it and you can either set it is notification ringtone or default call tone
As for the contact assignment i have not tried this but just had a quick look in my contacts and i cant see an option for it.
Ringdroid
I use and enjoy Ringdroid.
Ok, found that ringo pro can do the trick. I hope there is a free way.
Hoping someone can help me get my head around using these .nomedia files for audio in ICS - I have a bunch of ringtones etc. sitting in the media/audio/.. folders with a .nomedia file at the top level so these audio files don't show up in my music player, but by having that file there, I can no longer set them as my ringtone/alarm/notification. How can I have audio files show up in the sound choosers, but not the music app?

I'm not sure if this will be applicable to you. In my phone, all the ringtones are stored in the folder /sdcard/ringtones and these ringtones won't get read by the music app that I'm using, which my case is Google's Music Player. My songs are all stored in the folder /sdcard/music, the songs in it show up in the music app.
Thanks wlteh, I'll give that a try and see how it goes I'd read somewhere that additional ringtones were supposed to go in the /sdcard/media/audio/.. folder, but maybe that changed with ICS?
Do you have separate folders for ringtones, alarms, notifications in the /sdcard/ringtones folder?
All the mp3 i put on the internal storage is showed on the ringtone list at ringtone select list there is a way to not happen? Like a .nomedia?
this is SUPER annoying. '.nomedia' does work but your preferred music app might also be prevented from accessing your mp3s. i believe VLC didn't work but AIMP did. i can't remember if 'Black Player' had a problem with '.nomedia' or if i uninstalled it because it was just frustrating in general.
i also had a problem where some ringtone apps would install the same sound files in multiple folders ('Alarms', 'Notifications', 'Ringtones') so there were always duplicates of the same file.
I'm just setting up my MI 5S Plus and I'm used to using a custom ringtone that I always put in my music file. When I go to set the ringtone, I click the + at the bottom and what looks like some of my music MP3s come up but the one I want as a ringtone isn't listed. It's listed in the music app where I can search for it but I can'[t set it as my ringtone from there. When I try and add it from settings there is no search function that I can see and it isn't listed in my music. In the file explorer app I can search for it and find it easy but I don't see any way to set it as my ringtone. Suggestions?
Well I answered my own question. I couldn't set the MP3 as my ringtone from the music or file app that comes with the phone so I installed ES File Explorer, found the file, opened it with the ES Media Player that is part of the app, and there was the option to set as ringtone. So if anyone else has this problem this was the way I finally was able to do it.
