Question

I know inserting a ringtone programmatically,
but I want to know about deleting a specific ringtone from the system ringtone list.
What I know, is the title of the ringtone.

I googled a lot about it, but unluckily, couldn’t find any way to achieve exactly what I want.

Please, guide me the way to delete the ringtone using title of the ringtone.

Answer 1

Try as to delete an ringtone from MediaStore.Audio.Media

Uri uri = MediaStore.Audio.Media.getContentUriForPath(ringtone_path);  
int roweffected = getContentResolver().delete(uri,  
       MediaStore.MediaColumns.DATA + "=\"" + ringtone_path + "\"",  
       null);

if(roweffected>0){
  //ringtone deleted
}
else{
  //ringtone not deleted
}

EDIT :
you can also remove RINGTONE from list as :

ContentValues cv = new ContentValues();
Uri uri = MediaStore.Audio.Media.getContentUriForPath(ringtone_path);
cv.put(MediaStore.Audio.Media.IS_RINGTONE, false);
cv.put(MediaStore.Audio.Media.IS_NOTIFICATION, false);
cv.put(MediaStore.Audio.Media.IS_ALARM, false);
cv.put(MediaStore.Audio.Media.IS_MUSIC, true);

int rowupdate = getContentResolver().update(uri,
       cv, MediaStore.MediaColumns.DATA + "=?",new String[] {ringtone_path});

if(rowupdate>0){
  //ringtone update
}
else{
  //ringtone not update
}
