Yes.

Only 5mb storage, so what i do is i used a program i downloaded from download.com that will cut segments of a song, so you pick the segment you want as your ring tone and send it over the data cable. Set it as your ring tone and your done.

Very easy, and free.....

Is there any way to get the ringtones onto the phone without the cable? I tried emailing an attachment and that did not work.

i'd also reccomend Audacity, you can download it at http://audacity.sourceforge.net and its a full featured audio editor and it's entirely free!

I also use audacity and it works great. My phone goes to voicemail after about 30secs so I drop the settings in audacity to pretty much the lowest quality and make 15 - 30 second clips of my favorite songs... the result is files that only take around 75 - 125 KB each.

I've tried using higher quality mp3 clips as ringtones but on the phone when the ringer volume is relatively loud, I really can't hear much of a difference between the high quality and low quality versions.

On a side note, once I removed all the non-protected media from my phone as well as the demo games I ended up pretty much right at 7MB of free space. 😁

Archetype, what software do you use to remove the Cingular stuff? Do yuo use the FileManager app with a standard USB cable?

Thanks!

(Just ordered my phone and am wondering what cable and software are easiest for customizing the interface)

And what software do you use to make new themes?

Thanks!

Yes you can use mp3 ringtones.

Download Adobe Audition.
Edit the audio.
Save as MP3, Mono, 56Kbps
transfer to phone...

If you don't have the USB cable...

Upload to a server.

text message the link of the mp3 file.
ex:
(http://www.website.com/folder/ringtone.mp3)

When you receive the text message, open the hyperlink and it will download the ringtone.
