The following function will show you how to set a sound as ringtone on android.
You need the following permissions set on Manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS" ></uses-permission>
The xml below contains a button. On pressing this button will call the function to save
the sound on sdcard and set it as ringtone. Code for ringtone.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="@drawable/bg"> <ImageButton android:id="@+id/ImageButton01" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="@drawable/transparent" android:layout_marginLeft="180dip" android:layout_marginTop="200dip"></ImageButton> <TableLayout android:id="@+id/TableLayout01" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginTop="20dip" android:layout_width="fill_parent"><TableRow android:id="@+id/TableRow01" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="fill_parent"> <Button android:id="@+id/Button01" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_marginLeft="65dip" android:text="Set as Ringtone!"></Button></TableRow> </TableLayout></LinearLayout>
The following code is the function and the Ringtone class

I hope this can help you, so that you can set as ringtone any sound that you want in Android. If you see in this code, there are two buttons, one for playing the sound, and one for setting the sound as ringtone, so use both of functions for whatever you need.
