Ok, so here's how it is:

Big thanks to WildHeavenFarm for finding the midi file.

The song is done through instruments so theres no lyrics. Ideally, we like to just take a little clip of the mp3 verison of the theme song and shorten it down to a midi file. I've seen a bunch of programs that can do this but I dont feel like buying a whole program just for this task. However, i'm sure theres got to be some tech savvy browncoat who knows how to do. Lets find him/her. Till that time

Download the midi file off the link. Go to http://www.wap.pcs3g.com/
The site is made for phones with SPrint PCS vision, but it says it supports other phone types. Im sure you can figure it out.

Go to ringers:upload. Upload the midi file from your computer. The upload will be sucessful and you can click on the song. Click it, enter your phone number, and your phone should get a text message allowing you to download the song.

I'm sure there are easier and faster ways to do. I just don't know them. Hope this helped somewhat

What kind of phone do you have? I can't bear to trip at the finish line like this.

I have posted a 'qcp' file to http://www.wap.pcs3g.com


the file id is: 29219

the file name is serenity.qcp. This is full music and lyrics of the first 30 seconds of the ballad of the serenity.


Its around 50kb.....but I can cut that if there is is a smaller section of the song people want.

Enjoy!




They didnt call it the dark ages because it was dark.

Thanks for the tips! Any chance someone knows how to get this down to a Nokia 3360? The pcs3g site seems to want only web-enabled phones....

I can't find this file when I search the site. I've looked for both 29219 and serenity. Am I doing something wrong, or could you post it somewhere I could download it?

Thanks!

I guess I will have to search for another place to put the file.

The mime settings for the server are very specific for you to be able to download the file to your phone.

I will update this post if I find something suitable.

email me tausetiprime@yahoo.com if you just want me to send you the file.

I got it to work, kinda. I just saved the file from this link :

http://home.comcast.net/~mrtoade/FORnokiafirefly.mid

then went to the 'wap' website, uploaded the file, then downloaed it my phone. Works, just a little bit of back and forth. Plus it goes great with my Serenity screensaver on my phone too!

I'll be in my bunk...

crap, crap, crap....I listened to it, downloaded it, LOVE it....and I have a monophonic phone!!! ARRRGGHHHH!!! I would change, but it's the only one on my plan that is multi-network capable, which I need only a couple of times a year, but when I do need it, I need it....maybe I'll change, but let the hubby's stay at this model...he's *usually* with me when I'm out of town...hmmmm....to get the Firefly theme as a ring tone, might be worth it (frankly, I'm getting tired of Red Dwarf in monophonic...)
