1. Why you may want to customize Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone?

The default Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone can confuse you if some other people are also using the default ringtone.

Sometimes, you may want to know who is calling you based on the ringtone without check the screen.

Some Galaxy S6 owners may want to customize Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone with own music files (or other audio files).

This guide will show you:

  • how to change the default  Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone;
  • how to use your own music file as Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone;
  • how to use different ringtones for different contacts.

As the ringtone setting for Samsung Galaxy S6 is identical to that for Samsung Galaxy S6 edge, this guide also applies if you want to customize Galaxy S6 edge ringtone.

2. How to change Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone?

To set or change Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone, you can go to Settings.

Tap Sounds and notifications as shown below.

Tap Ringtone as shown below. Please note, the current default ringtone is listed behind Ringtone.

customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_1_settings customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_2_ringtone

If you have ES File explorer or other ringtone handling apps installed, you may get the options of choosing apps to handle your request.

For example, I installed ES File Explorer on the Galaxy S6, so I get the option of choosing ES File Explorer or Media storage.

Media storage option will allow you to select any pre-installed ringtones and any music files you put in the Ringtones folder.

Tap Media Storage.

Tap JUST ONCE a shown below

Now you can select any of these ringtones.  It will become the new default Galaxy S6 ringtone.

customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_3_media_storage_just_once customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_4_change_ringtone

3. How to customize Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone with your own music files on the phone?

In addition to the pre-installed ringtones, you can also use your own music files or any audio files as  Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone.

The music can be on your phone or on your PC.

In this section, we assume the music file to be added as Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone is located in your phone. If the music file is located on your PC, please read next section.

To customize Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone with your own music files on the phone, please go to Settings—Sounds and notifications—Ringtone. Similar to the steps in section 2, you need choose Media storage and JUST ONCE if you are given the options.

Now instead of selecting a ringtone, scroll down the list of ringtone to the bottom.  Tap + Add ringtone as shown below.

The music files on your Galaxy S6 will be shown. Tap the one which you want to use as Galaxy S6 ringtone.

For example, as shown below, you want to use Together as the new ringtone for your Galaxy S6.  Tap the music to check.

For a music file, because it is usually quite too long for a ringtone, by default, Galaxy S6 choose part of the music as the ringtone. Samsung calls it “Highlights only” as shown below.

customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_5_add_ringtone customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_6_music_on_phone

If you want to use the whole song as Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone, you can unchek Highlights only as shown below.

Tap DONE in the top right as shown below once you finish selecting.

The new Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone should be applied as shown below.

Please note, for a music file, once you added it as ringtone in this way, it will be then permanently available in the ringtone before you delete the file.

So, you can use this music file just like pre-installed ringtones as customized ringtone for some contacts as well (see section 5).

customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_7_music_on_phone_highlights_onlycustomize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_8_changed_ringtone

4. How to customize Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone with your own music files on your PC?

If the music file you want to use as  Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone is located in your PC, you can copy them to the Ringtones folder in Galaxy S6.

You may connect your Galaxy S6 to the PC with a USB cable.  Then in Windows Explorer, you should be able to find your Galaxy S6.

However, if you cannot find your Galaxy S6 (or S6 edge), you may need install Smart Switch as explained in this page.

Once your Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 edge is connected to the PC, navigate to the Ringtones folder as shown below.

Then copy music file from your PC to this folder as shown below.

In this example, you want to use LetMeBe.m4a as the new Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone.  So you copy this file to the Ringtones folder on Galaxy S6.

As shown below, you need verify the music file is copied to the folder. If the system ask you to convert, you may accept.

customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_9_music_from_pc customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_10_music_copied

Once the file is copied to the Ringtones folder, it is ready for you to use it as Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone immediately.

Please go to Settings—Sounds and notifications—Ringtone. Similar to the steps in section 2, you need choose Media storage and JUST ONCE if you are given the options.

You can find Let Me Be now is in the ringtone list as shown below.

Tap it will change your current Galaxy S6 ringtone to this one.

Again, after tapping the music file, you will be asked to use part of music (highlights only) or the whole song (from the beginning) as shown below.

This setting is only required when you first time use this music file as Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone.

customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_11_add_ringtone_listcustomize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_12_from_beginning_highlights_only

Tap Highlights only (or From the beginning, it is up to you and the music file) as shown below.

Tap OK to confirm.

Now, in the Ringtones and sounds, you can find the music file is your new Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone as shown below.

customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_13_highlights_onlycustomize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_14_ringtone_from_pc

5. How to customize Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone for individual contact?

In addition to changing ringtone, or  using own music file as Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone, you can also customize ringtone for each contact on Galaxy S6 so that you know who is calling once Galaxy S6 rings.

To  customize Samsung Galaxy S6 ringtone for individual contact, please follow these steps.

Step 1: In Contacts app, tap the contact you want to use special ringtone.

Step 2: Tap EDIT as shown below.

Step 3: Tap Ringtone as shown below.

Current ringtone is shown. If you have’t customized ringtone for this contact, it should be the default ringtone, which actually changes if you change default ringtone in Settings–Sounds and notifications–Ringtone.

customize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_15_edit_contactcustomize_galaxy_s6_ringtone_16_contact_ringtone

Step 4: Choose a ringtone for this contact.

You can choose from any pre-installed ringtones, or any music files you added from your PC (section 4), or music files on your phone (section 3).

    I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 and I recently purchased music from Google Play. I understand to add a song as a ringtone it needs to be in the Music app already on the phone (as it shows in your pictures also).
    Is there any way I can have my chosen track I purchased from the play store to my music and have it as a ringtone?

      No, you cannot use play music as ringtones because it is DRMed. You can only play them with play music app. You can user audio file that can be played by the music app on Galaxy S6.

      Lauren, i was trying to figure out how to add ringtones to my Samsung Galaxy 6 also. I just downloaded about 15 songs into my Galaxy ringtone folder. I have purchased songs from Rhapsody so I went into my program on my laptop and connected the USB cord to my phone into my USB on laptop. A Samsung folder popped up and I just dragged and dropped my songs that I wanted to use for my ringtones into ‘Samsung Galaxy 6 tracks.’ I didn’t know if it would work, but it did. On my phone, I went into ringtones and tapped ‘add ringtones’ and all the songs I dropped into my Samsung Track folder were there! That’s all I did. I hope something works for you.

    Thanks for the help. When adding a new contact I have the option to edit ringtone. For some reason some of my existing contacts I have that option to edit and others it does not give me the option, if I really want to change the ringtone on someone that I don’t have the option to edit I can always delete and re-add. Thanks again!! 🙂

      These contacts that you cannot add ringtones are very likely saved in the SIM card. Import them to the phone or Google account.

      Many apps have their own notification settings inside the app. For example, Facebook app has its own notification tone settings.

      Anyway, this depends on individual developers. Galaxy S6 do not set special notification tones for individual apps of they don’t have their own settings. In this case, the default notification tone settings will be used.

      It’s not necessary. All play music are saved in cloud and you can access them from any of your devices.

      You can “download” some music for offline listening. But these files work only on the device from which you download the files. It will not work on any other devices even if you transfer the files to other devices.

      What exactly do you want to do? Why not just download again from s6?

      You can turn on notification reminder on settings – accessibility – notification reminder to get repeated alerts for unread notifications.

      For reading text, what exactly do you want? Open message app or unlock the screen. By default, the reading text is designed for owners with vision difficulties. Samsung doesn’t have an app similar to Motorola Assist.

      But some apps can help you based on your needs.

        I think I know what Marcie is asking… I’m wondering the same. When a conversation thread is open in text messenger, there isn’t any notification sound when another text for the open thread comes in. You need to watch the screen or close the thread.
        Is there a way to set it so a notification sound alerts you when a reply comes in, even when the current conversation thread is still open?

    On the question about reading the text, is that when the text is open after I have replied then my contact replies back there is no sound, if I’m not looking at it I do not know they have replied.. does that make sense? Thanks for your help..

      That is normal. If the UI for messaging app is not closed (e.g., you press home button, instead of back button), there is no notifications for incoming messages. The app is designed in this way. Of course, some like it, some dislike it. But there are no options.

        Yes, you can customize both the default message tone and message tone for individual contact.

        To customize galaxy s6 message notification tone fire individual contact, you can follow this guide. In contacts app, you can set customized message tone, just like what you did for ringtone.

        To customize the default message tone so that is different from the default notification tones you set. In messages app, tap the menu key (3 vertical dots), tap more, tap settings, tap notifications. You can set a new message tone.

          So i have done everything i think i am supposed to and still can not get my new s6 to play an individual text tone for my boyfriend’s texts. I went into his contact. Selected edit. Added a new field for message tone. Tapped on the message tone field to enter the list of available notification tones. Scrolled down to find the tone that i had created and copied into the notifications folder. Selected my tone and the phone played my tone. Backed up until i could save this change. Continued to back out of contacts. Reopened contacts. Went to my boyfriends contact. Selected edit so that i could see what message tone was there. Right there in the contact page is shows that the notification that i made and selected is the chosen notification and yet when he texts all i get is the default notification. I have even tried selecting other available notifications that came on the phone just in case there was something wrong with the tone i created. No matter what it says in the messaging tone field all i ever get is the default notification. Any ideas?

            Are you using the Samsung messaging app? The customized message tone works only for the stock Samsung messaging app. If you carrier customized the messaging app or uses own messaging app, the messaging tone will not work.

            S6 comes with something called Messages+. Tried that first. Then i read that if you use Messages (without the plus) that the individual text tones would work. I found the place on the phone where you can select Messages instead of Messages+ ( as well as a third option ) and selected Messages and saved. The icon on the desktop still says Messages+ even though i went back in and verified that Messages, not Messages+, was selected in the list of options and, of course, i restarted the phone just in case that was necessary to implement the app change. Now when i click on the Messages+ icon, it asks me if i would rather use Messages+ instead of Messages, implying that the change actually took place but when i choose NO it still seems to start Messages+. I am befuddled.

            Your carrier or distributor can control which app should be used. If you choose no, it still uses messages+, it means it’s enforced in the firmware by your carrier.

So I tried to ES File Explorer and I can save the new ringtone with that. All good except where are the default built in Samsung ringtones? I can’t seem to find the location with ES File Explorer.

        Thanks Simon! Es File Explorer was looking in the “SD” card section even though my S6 doesn’t have one and that folder was empty.

        I couldn’t navigate to the right folder while in the ES File Explorer that was called up with Audiomanager as a file picker, so I quit that and started up ES File Manager on it’s own and copied those ringtones to the “SD” card. 🙂 It worked, so thanks again!

      You cannot change what they hear because it’s set by your phone company. It’s called connecting tone. You can check with your phone company whether you can customize it. In most regions, the phone company will charge a monthly fee for connecting tone.

      When you choose ringtone, in the bottom, you can find “Add ringtone”. Tap it. Tap sound picker, then you can choose any audio file in the phone.

      You can also put the audio files in the Ringtones folder in the phone. Then you can find it among ringtones.

      Did you tap the down arrow button near the bottom? What did you get aftet tapping edit?

      Please note, if the contact is saved in SIM card, you should only have name and phone fields. You need move out to phone or to Google account to get all options.

          You can export multiple contacts to a file, then import. Open contacts app, tap More near top right, tap settings. Then tap import/export contacts.

          You may display contacts in SIM card only by changing the Contacts to display in the same settings page. Remember to change back once you finish the export.

      The latest version of Galaxy S6 firmware allows you to select music file, and choose whether to use highlight (or whole audio file). You cannot select manually select part of the music.

      If you need that feature, you can use any audio editing apps to clip the music, then use the clipped music file as ringtone.

      The length of ringing period is controlled by mobile network, not the phone.

    I tried to go to settings, Apps, contacts, export and I see the contacts exported using file manager but the phone cabinet see them when I tell the phone in settings to use phone contacts so I had to create a new contact with the same name as the existing contact and link it to same contact and save to phone before I could edit and VIEW MORE to add a ringtone.

      For contacts, it’s better to sync through your Google account.

      When you choose the ringtones, it should ask you to choose an app. You then choose Sound picker.

      If the pop up does not show up, you can go to Settings –Application manager to reset the default app.
