Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge: How to Set Your Own Audio File as Notification Tone in Android 5.1.1 Lollipop

If you want to have more personal notification tone in your Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge or are bored with the stock notification tone, you can use your own audio file as your notification tone. What you have to do is placing the required audio file to the notifications folder in order to add it to the notification sound list so you can select and set it as your notification tone.


How to add your own audio file to the notifications folder?
As the example, we'll add a mp3 file to the notifications folder so it'll be added to the notification sound list by using the following steps:
  1. Open My Files app.
  2. In the Category section, tap Audio folder to view all audio files in your phone.
  3. Long tap the required mp3 file to select it.
  4. To copy the selected mp3 file, tap More at the top right and then select Copy.
  5. Now, navigate to the Device storage\media\audio\notifications folder. To paste copied mp3 file, tap Paste here at the top right.
  6. The selected mp3 file has been copied to the notifications folder and will be added to the notification sound list.


How to use your own audio file as your notification tone?
As the example, we'll use the mp3 file that has been added to the notifications folder as the S Planner notification tone by using the following steps:
  1. On any screen, swipe down the top of the screen to open up the notification panel and then tap at the top right to go to the settings menu.
  2. Scroll down to the Device section and then tap Sounds and notifications.
  3. Tap Ringtones and sounds.
  4. Tap S Planner notifications.
  5. If S Planner notifications is off, tap the ON/OFF switch to turn it on. The switch turns green when it's enabled.
  6. Tap Notification sound.
  7. Find your mp3 file within the list and then tap it to select and set it as the S Planner notification tone.
  8. The S Planner notification tone has been changed.
