Question

I have an app that plays mp3’s. I want to make it so when you long click/press on the button it will save the mp3 file to there ringtones directory. Also want a toast notification if possible. Could someone shoot me into the right direction?

Thanks

EDIT:
This is what I have so far

            @Override
            public boolean onLongClick(View arg0) {

                Toast toast = Toast.makeText(AkaliMain.this, "Saved",5000);
                toast.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER, 0, 0);
                toast.show();

                return false;

            }


        });

EDIT 2:
This is what I have now. Cant even get it to compile.

Answer 1

Google around some, there is TONS of information out there :). See this question for saving mp3s as ringtones. See this question for a good example of an onItemLongClickListener (using a listview).
And this is how to make a toast message:

Toast.makeText(context, "Hello from Toast!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

So your onItemLongClickListener would look something like this:

myList.setOnItemLongClickListener(new OnItemLongClickListener() {
  @Override public boolean onItemLongClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int position, long id) {
   //... code to save mp3 file...
   Toast.makeText(context, "File saved as ringtone", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
   return false;
  }

});

While I could just give you teh complete codez, you wouldn’t learn anything in the process 🙂

EDIT: See this question for more help on saving your mp3 to the ringtones directory. Here is another good one, which links to this great post.
