It sounds like ubuntu-system-settings should not scan the folders for ringtone, but get media files from content-hub.

Personalization seems like one of the major features the user expect to have. :-) [1] http://blog.csdn.net/u013151336/article/details/45154095 (use case a Chinese user like to set their own wallpaper) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to content-hub in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1268097 Title: [System settings] Can't set user-supplied ring tone Status in the base for Ubuntu mobile products: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu UX bugs: Triaged Status in content-hub package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in ubuntu-system-settings package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: AFAICS I can't set a custom ring tone without using a writable image.
