Can an .ogg file be downloaded into a rooted AT&T SGSIII? Want to add a sound to the phone. Thanks for any help.

Yes it can
Just download it to your sd card, then move it to either notifications or ringtones with Root Explorer or ES File Explorer. Make sure you mount the system as r/w, set permissions, and reboot!

O.K., thanks. I want to add a "mail sent" sound to the phone. It should make that sound whenever i send out a text or email. What do you mean by mount the system as r/w? All my sounds have an r/w underneath them. Please explain "set permissions", as that's new to me. Sorry to be such a noob. Thanks.
Let me post a pic, then I can explain easier
See at the top it says, "mounted as r/o"? That means I cannot move files around in /system until I click on the box that says, "Mount R/W". Then I can write, (or move files to) /system.
For example, if I download an .ogg file to my sd card.
If I copy that file and navigate to /system/media/audio/notifications, and try to paste it there without mounting as r/w, the paste will fail.
I need to mount as r/w in order for the file to paste.
As far as permissions, see how next to each .ogg file it says "rwxrwxr-x"?
Set your new .ogg file with the same permissions by long pressing on the file, then changing permissions. I don't know how to better explain permissions, but I can post another pic of a screen where permissions are changed at.

Doesn't work. No sound when i send out a text, or email. Do i have to go "deeper" into the file system?
What app are you using to send a text or email?
The reason I ask is, with the stock messaging app, at least on mine (Verizon w/cleanrom) there is no option to make a sound with a message sent. On GoSmS, there is.
And on email, I use gmail, there is no option to make a sound when email is sent.
You may want to try GoSMS if you want a sound-on-sent text.
Or another email app that will handle gmail etc...like AquaMail. <---not sure if that allows sound-on-sent email tho

Using stock text & email apps. Had GO SMS Pro for about a month, but deleted it because of problems with incoming sounds(sound kept coming in twice). I just figured that if iPhone had the outgoing sounds, my SGSIII could have it too. Thanks for your help.
No problem....sorry if I had misunderstood your question

I noticed that you use Root Explorer. I'm using File Explorer. I was just wondering if your app is a better way to go, as far as changing files is concerned. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.
You use ES File Explorer? I do too, but I am just more used to Root Explorer to do some things like change permissions that's all.
ES File Explorer will do the same thing. I use both
But I don't think that will help with the app sounds you want to happen ya know?

You're right, but i'll keep working at it. BTW, if i give ES File Explorer, superuser permission, i can also change the file codes, just like Root Explorer. Thanks for your feedback.

About Go Sms. It has a setting "stock sms uninstalled" or something deep in its settings so you can disable or freeze the stock messenger to prevent any double notifications :thumbup:
just noticed Light Flow app has a setting in it for Gmail to make a notification for "sent". Im not sure what that means though
