    Click "Manual Setup"

    Select IMAP, and enter imap.mail.yahoo.com
    as the IMAP Server. You can select SSL or None.
    Click Next - > In next screen, enter smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com as the SMTP server. You can select SSL or None

    Click Next.
    Enter your account name (as you wish) and click Finish.

  2. YMail App from Yahoo

    But it does not allow to add more than one Yahoo Mail accounts.
    Has anybody tried on that yet?? Then comment please...

How to set any mp3 as Alarm Sound in Android Mobiles?

Hi Android-ites!



Create a folder "alarms" inside the SD memory card, and paste all the mp3s that you want to be able to set as Alarm tones.

And you are raring to go! Go.. Go.. Go...

And guess what? Similarly for tones to be used as Notifications and Ringtones, do follow the same process:

Notifications - Message tones and Notification tones
Ringtones - phone ringtones
Alarms - alarm mp3s
