To Delete a saved ringtone, you may also try the instructions below. Just as a reminder, you cannot delete pre-installed ringtones. 

 

--From the main HOME screen, click settings 

--Tap  Sound set. click on downloaded ringtones

--Press MENU, and then tap Delete.

--Tap one or more sound sets you want to delete.

--Tap Delete.

 

You can also go to PERSONALIZE  through the settings tab to view additional ringtones.

Can you go to settings > sound > phone ringtone > press menu > delete ringtone > select the ringtone you want to delete?

Post back if that works or not.

Help.  I'm having the same issue.  I have the HTC Thunderbolt and when I go in to the Ringtones, hit Menu, and hit Delete, my ringtone I downloaded isn't on the list.  I downloaded a ringtone to try to use as a message sounds but since I can't change my message sound to anything but what's already on the phone, I no longer want that ringtone on my phone.  I'm really starting to hate this phone and I just bought it.

I used the directions to try and delete double downloaded ringtones from the app Ringlert.  None of them showed up to delete.  I deleted the double ringtone from Ringlert directly, but they are still in my ringtones twice.  Any other suggestions?

The only other way I know that will delete the extra ringtones is doing a factory reset. :smileysad:
