Hi!

Is it possible to add Alarm Tones in Windows Mobile 6.1 Device (HTC HD)?

Thanks!

Yes. You just need to put a small mp3 or wav file in one of the
"right" places (where the settings tool will find them). I put
ringtones in
\My Documents\My Ringtones
I _think_
\My Documents\
would work.

After copying the wav file in My Documents and My Ring Tones folder it is not
visible in Alarm Tones. I am asking about Alarm Tones not Ring Tones.

Thanks!

Yes, I know, and worded my earlier response carefully. I think the
exact locations have varied with OS version, and perhaps with
OEM/carrier tweaks. So my best suggestion is to look for the "right"
place. Look for files that match names in the existing list of alarms.
Look for folders with names that seem right. And then copy an mp3 or
wave file and see whether it shows up. Sorry I couldn't do better.

On my WM6 device, all Alarm tones are .wav files and are in the \Windows
folder. Try copying it there and see if it can be found by the system.

Could this be one of those HTC UI things? Are you setting the alarm tone in
an HTC menu rather than the underlying MS OS menu?
