ring tones?

[khall19712003]

I bought my wife a 700wx for christmas and we both have had treos for sometime now and we have moved from the 650 to the windows based 700wx but on the 650 u just down load Ringo but on the 700wx do u have to do the same for a mp3 ring tone??

On the 700wx you can set an MP3 file as a ringtone without any converting. However, you may want to use an audio editor (such as GoldWave) to trim the MP3 file down to 30 seconds or so.

Also, you might try www.myxer.com. You can create a free account and search for ringtones. Most of them are already trimmed and will take up less space than a normal MP3.

ya i use the tonethis software to edit the mp3 but how do i get it to a rintone i had a tmobile wing with the same windowes software and when u wnt into your files you would just hold down on the screen with the styles and it would pop up set as ring tone but the treo 700wx dosent do that??

I get them to the phone through Active Sync. Once on the phone I move them to a 4 gig card for storage. Pretty easy actually.

I use a site called funformobile. Go there & search for a certain ringtone. I created folder called "ringtones" & d/l them into there & storage card. then I go to sounds and notifications on my settings & press "manage" then "add" then select a ringtone from the folder then go to contacts and select a ringtone for different contacts. I know that's quite a bit but it's easier than it sounds

wmRingToneMaker works really well

I don't see how to do that. I loaded a few mp3's onto my memory card, but when I go to make them ringtones, they do not show up in the list - only the verizon ones are there.

Any help here would be appreciated.

MP3s need to be stored in My Device/Appliction Data/Sounds. Then they can be used as ringtones.

Awesome! Thanks so much.

Also, Phonezoo.com is a great place to get ringtones and screen savers.
