Thanks. Just want to add that with my myTouch 3G (Aka Magic or G2), firmware 1.5, I can use WAV files as Ringtones as well as MP3. I put the WAV files in my SD Card \ Ringtones folder and they showed up in the ringtones list.

I created the three folders for : notifications, alarms and ringtones.
Then put the ringtone I wanted for my notifications in the notifications folder. It was and .mp3 and I was able to assign it as the notification tone.

There is no need to use a .wav file.

Hope this helps!

Found the .mp3 file, transferred it into my Music folder on EVO, and assigned it as my ringtone. It worked.

When downloading an .mp3 ringtone from Myxer, my phone presented a message stating that "The content is not supported...," and asked if I still wanted to download it. I clicked "Yes." Now I have no idea where it put the file.
I presume it wants an OGG file type, and believe I have the tools to convert it, if I can locate it.

make 3 folders on your sd card

ringtones - for ringtones mp3 format
alarms - wav format
notifications - wav format
there u go they will then show up in the settings menu when you want to change the ringtones alarms or notifications tones. any questions let me kno i just figured it out

Found it! But, it is an .gcd file, which nothing seems to recognize. What do I do to convert it and use it as a ringtone?

I don't think there's a way to set for "unknown callers" but if you assigned a custom ringtone for everyone in your Contacts then you'd have to just set the normal ringtone and that'd technically be it. (I know what I said is tedious though...)
