Anybody know an app that will make a mp3 or other audio file work as a notification or sms tone on the desire? Can convert to ringtone, but not for notifications.

Oh, if the Nexus is made in the same factory as the HTC Desire, then it is made by the same factory that makes iphones.

I just moved mp3 files into the notifications folder on my HTC Desire. I use Astro for file management and love it :)

I've tried several times to decipher this post and I'm still lost. :wtf: jk

1. Don lives in the stix ;)
2. His local company is now testing to support a Droid :)
3. Don is eagrely awaiting a phone that doesnt look like a Star Trek Phaser. :roll:

Sneeky has DIK-speak down. :laugh: My local regional wireless company has only one ANdroid phone, the Hero. They're getting the Desire "within a month."

Oh, and to prove 3, here's a shot of my current phone:

I tried just dropping a file into the notifications directory, too, with astrO. I'm rooted, but don't have the permissions (free version?). so I went to the market, found super manager...holy shit, so far it smokes astro. I dropped an "Audiopostcard.amr" I recorded a couple weeks ago into notifications. at first, it didn't show up, but a reboot put in the list from the settings menu.

Might be something with permissions & rooting, I'm not rooted.

free or paid?

The phone is not locked or branded if that's what you mean. And I only use free apps until Google makes a good creditcard alternative like PayPal available.

yeah, free version of astro is what I meant.
check out super manager, it comes bundled with a super launcher that is very cool. I use quickdesk for "multitasking," but this is awesome.
