How can I add my app's custom ringtones in res/raw folder to a ringtonepreference

I have this RingtonePreference (from Android Studio's default SettingsActivity):

pref_notification.xml:

<PreferenceScreen xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <RingtonePreference
        android:dependency="notifications_alarm"
        android:key="notifications_alarm_ringtone"
        android:title="@string/pref_title_ringtone"
        android:ringtoneType="notification|all"
        android:defaultValue="content://settings/system/notification_sound" />

SettingsActivity.java:

private void setupSimplePreferencesScreen() {
    if (!isSimplePreferences(this)) {
        return;
    }

    // Add 'general' preferences.
    addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.pref_general);

    // Add 'notifications' preferences, and a corresponding header.
    PreferenceCategory fakeHeader = new PreferenceCategory(this);
    fakeHeader.setTitle(R.string.pref_header_notifications);
    getPreferenceScreen().addPreference(fakeHeader);
    addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.pref_notification);

    bindPreferenceSummaryToValue(findPreference("notifications_alarm_ringtone"));
}

@TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB)
public static class NotificationPreferenceFragment extends PreferenceFragment {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.pref_notification);

        bindPreferenceSummaryToValue(findPreference("notifications_alarm_ringtone"));
    }
}

I would like to add my app's custom ringtones from res/raw folder to the list. (I don't need them to be available for other apps.)

Option 1: Copy to device storage

Copy your ringtone files to the device's storage. I did basically this for an app on GitHub, here, where I copied alarm tones from raw resources to the device's alarms directory (you'll need to replace all the instances of "alarms" with "ringtones"). Then we use ContentValues to create metadata telling the system that the files are ringtones and use MediaStore.Audio.Media.getContentUriForPath and then context.getContentResolver().insert(contentUri, contentValues) to add the ringtones to the device's database, so they'll be included in the RingtonePreference's list. You can also set a ringtone as the default using RingtoneManager.setActualDefaultRingtoneUri(), though you'll need the WRITE_SETTINGS permission.

Also, remember to use the URI you get from getContentUriForPath() when calling getContentResolver().insert() and RingtoneManager.setActualDefaultRingtoneUri(). And, make sure you add to your AndroidManifest.xml:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

Option 2: Custom preference

Create a custom preference, as shown in this guide, or you can use (or subclass) the ListPreference. You will need to retrieve all the device's ringtones using RingtoneManager.getCursor() (docs) and add them to the list, and include your custom ringtones also.

Then, in your preferences.xml file, instead of RingtonePreference, you would use

<com.yourapp.CustomPreference android:key="your_key"
    ...

In your case, since it's okay if other apps have access to the ringtones as well, I'd recommend using the first method, since in general I feel it's better not to duplicate functionality already provided by the system, since it's best to utilize what the user is already familiar with.

Finally I made my own ExtraRingtonePreference based on this answer: In preferences, select my sound just like with RingtonePreference

I'll include it here for future reference:
