please help
please help
Now, if I am understanding him right, he is saying that he downloaded a ringtong from the My Verizon store. When you download ringtones from that store, it is sent to you on your phone via text message. I have a Motorola Droid and I figured out how to get the file from there. It's actually very simple, but not obvious at all. Essentially, the text message comes from verizon and shows that you have an attachment with that message. However, when you go in the message, you can touch the large play button and listen to it, but there is no option to record it or save it as a ringtone. The solution is this: Press and Hold your finger on the TEXT BODY below the large Play Button. That will then give you the menu option to Save as Ringtone. After that, it's just a matter of going into your ringtone settings and setting it as your ringtone. To be honest, it's the least obvious solution of all the options I attempted, but that's how you do it. Cheers.
Go to your applications and touch on Music. Once in music, touch on menu and you should find your ringtone there. Touch set as ringtone and the rest is easy...If you downloaded multiple ringtones touch on the music symbol on the bottom right of your screen adn that should bring up all of your ringtones. Touch one, pause it, touch menu and then a box pops up to choose contact or phone ringtone.
I got my son to send me a text from his phone with music to see if I could save it because some ppl on here were having problems and I didn't want to get ringtones from verizon if I couldn't save. You can do this with your moto droid but will it work for me on my DI? Also, where did the song/audio I saved from the text message my son sent me go? It said saved but I can't find it. Thanks!
If you already have music files you'd like to use for ringtones, alarms, notifications, etc. Connect your device to your PC, on the device, got to USB, then mount the SD card. Now on the root of SD card create the following folders by type, they are as follows:
Notifications: media/audio/notifications
Ringtones: media/audio/ringtones
Alarms: media/audio/alarms
After you unmount the card and disconnect, when the phone refreshes all your ringtones, alarms, notifications, etc. will show in the affiliated display.
thanks for taking the time to explain all of this to me...I am a slow learner and thought the phone would be very complicated for me but I just wanted it SO BAD!!!
YES!! I did figure it out thanks to all your help. Now, I am trying to get my Seidio Innocase II off so I can apply my Steinheil Crystal Clear Screen Protectors...wouldn't know how to help me there would ya? I saw a thread on here but it wasn't very helpful and I am squeezing my phone to death and think I may break it before I can get the cover off.
