Urg- yet another set of questions on music & ringtones
🙄 Sorry, gang- I have read through quite a bit of the forum, but I'm still left with just a few questions.
(Note: I have the phone, and a transflash card)
1. Should I opt to buy the music kit from Verizon, am I right in assuming that I will then be able to transfer my music files (one way or another) onto my phone to use as ringtones? I have no use for my phone being a standalone mp3 player or something, I just want to have ringtones!
2. In the above case, will it be the whole song, or would I be forced to have 30 second clips?
3. Alternitively, if I pot to just buy a cable and download the drivers, what is the answer to those questions as well?
4. Is there any major disadvantage to buying the cable/downloading the dri...

I was able to create ring tones without the music kit, simply using the BITPIM freeware program, the phone driver and the correct USB cable. I have since opted for a transflash card and the Music Essentials kit so now I enjoy using all the extra features.
You can create ring tones longer than 30 seconds, but calls go to voicemail after 5-6 rings anyway, so maybe it is unnecessary to have tones more than that? The same sound files can be used for alerts and such, so yes it is possible to have them longer. Just don't create your MP3 ring tones more than 3-4 megabytes as to not overload the buffer memory in your phone. This might cause the phone to reboot.
I'm not sure how cheap you can find just a USB cable for, but why not spend ...

I have ring tones and games sitting on my computer to put on my phone but I'm having problems finding the drivers. I spoke to my phone server who says there isn't any drivers to take the information off my computer & put in onto my phone. I have the SCH-A950 but I only see drivers for 940, 970 etc. Can this actually be done or am I wasting my time? Help Thanks Kim
