Hey Zoid, and thanks for the directions! I don't see how you can use the freeringers site without paying a onetime fee of $8 or $10. Could you expand on how to do this step? Thanks

Edit: I figured it out another way - I just used my phone to access mrtoade's midi-file directly, and it was saved to my phone. Thanks mrtoade - I love it!

OK, I found the directions form ZOID, but what I ment was, Are there directions for the monetarily(SP) challenged? you know cheaper and eaiser?

EDIT: I just saw your edit SASJA, for those not used to accessing files from phones do you think you could humor me and spell it out, Pretty Please? Ahh, TheGrayJedi does everything the hard way; not ment to be offensive, just a thought. Also I have an LG VX 3100, will the Polyphonic ring work with this phone?

thanks for the e-mail TheGreyJedi, but I still have no idea what I'm doing?

Edit: just one question Grey, how did you get my email address when I never gave it out? or was your response part of the automated(SP) response check box, (remember I'm new at this and don't know how this stuff works.)

Mine is a Nokia, so it may be different, but here's what I do: There's a menu item that's called "services" (it has a little globe icon). Subitems include Homepage and Bookmarks. Choose the one called Go to address, and you'll get a textfield with "http://" already written in it. Fill out the rest (" http://home.comcast.net/~mrtoade/FORnokiafirefly.mid" - that's for the nokia, you should perhaps use the other one), and press OK. The download starts, and when prompted you just choose 'Save ringtone', and you'll have it on your phone.

jossisagod:

It looks to me like Sasja answered your question just two posts up. MrToade has two different files available. Point your phone's browser at each and download them both. Then go to your phone's media folder where ringtones and wallpapers are stored (NB: This is a typical functionality of cell phones; yours may differ, so whip out the User's Manual if confusion persists). In the ringtone folder (see NB), you should find both of the downloaded midis. On my Nokia, one plays, the other lists as an unknown format and won't open. I deleted the one that wouldn't play and kept the other, setting it as my preferred ringtone.

As far as the website I used to send my edited ringtone to, if they're now charging for the service, I'm sorry to hear that. She wasn't a prostitute when we dated...

To those who kept this thread alive, and provided the ringtones, thanks! I just tried it myself on my Samsung sch-a670, and it worked! I used this procedure (read about it on this thread or elsewhere):

1) first email myself a picture

2) reply to THAT email with the midi file attached

3) On the phone, when reading the message, save the sound as a custom sound

4) On the phone, set that custom sound as the ringtone.

VERY nice. I wish the midi were louder; there's no way I can use it as-is for a real ringtone. Perhaps I can amplify the midi file easily myself and resend it.

Anyone know how to get a ringtone on a Nextel Motorola i205? The site mention above isn't compatible with Nextel apparently. I just bought this phone yesterday (finally one with ringtone download capability).

Any help is greatly appreciate.
