Maybe someone can sort out what I found on my Hero. I tried checking the file structure on my SD card and have 'Media' with subs for Ringtones, etc... but when I go to contacts and try to select ringtones I do not see my downloaded ones. What I do see are the ringtones located in the phone System folder. How come I can't see the SD card files and is there a way to copy them into the System folder which seems to be the default location. (I have the same problem trying to set my 'Lock' wallpaper with a custom .jpg) Thanks! Interesting post. Maybe someone can sort out what I found on my Hero.

From the edit screen, there is a Ringtone dropdown. Set the ringtone you want and save. @ray- If you open the People app, then find a contact you want to give a specific ringtone to, then long press on the contact and you should be given the option to edit the contact.

For example, if you open the messages app and tap the <strong>menu </strong>button, then go to <strong>Settings</strong> there is an option called <strong>Select sound</strong>. If you change that setting, it should change the ringtone for incoming SMS messages. @chris- Confusingly, there are two places you can specify a notification ringtone – the main notifications menu sets the overall default, but each app may have it’s own notification settings.
