Using a button to set a .wav file as a ringtone or notification

I'm making a sound board and have the sounds and have created the first screen that displays the sounds for that title.

Now, I have used player to allow the user to play the sound, but want to have a 'Set' button, where they can then set that sound as a ringtone/text/notification alert.

Having searched the forums, the last posts are from the start of 2014 on this, where it wasn't available.

Has there been any updates or improvements? If so, how do I do it?

If not,

Does anyone have any work around in order to achieve this? Can I open the .apk in notepad and add the lines of code required? If so, what are they?

you could write your own extension and create a block yourself...

for example you could use this snippet http://stackoverflow.com/q/29256684

more information about how to create an extension see the App Inventor Extensions document

however that will be more advanced and will require some Java skills...

meanwhile I added some methods to get/set/play a ringtone, see my settings extension here https://puravidaapps.com/settings.php#ringtone

settings.aia

Wow Taifun, this is great.

So you've already created the extension that will allow me to add a behavior to a button which will set it as a ringtone/notification/alarm? Great job!

I can't download it from your site, so I assume I have to pay $10 for it? If this extension will do what I need it to, then I'd gladly pay that, actually I'll pay $20 to further support your work. Btw, I don't have paypal, but do have a debit/credit card.

Let me know,
