Add new ringtones to your phone

Connect your phone to your PC with a USB cable, and use the file manager of your PC to move

the song you want to the ringtones folder in your phone. Your PC must have Windows Vista,

Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, or Windows 10. Alternatively, you can use OneDrive to

transfer files to your phone.
After the file is in the ringtones folder in your phone, the song appears in the ringtones list in

Sounds.
You can use a song as your ringtone if it is not protected with digital rights management

(DRM), and it’s smaller than 30 MB. The supported formats are WMA, MP3, and M4R.

Tip: Want to create your own unique ringtone? Use the Ringtone Maker app to help

you. If you don’t have the app on your phone yet, you can download it from
