Here's where you can get a tool to convert .wav to .mmf
Wave to SMAF Converter
I used Audacity to convert some of my .mp3 files to wave and make 10 to 15 second clips.
Then I used LG GSM software Contents Bank to download it to my phone useing a USB cable I found on ebay for 6 dollars. It can be used for images too.
Hope this can help.
Bonum
How did you get the LG GSM software to work? I keep getting a CME-3 error. I have some mmf files but when trying to downloaad I always get this message. How do I convert midi and/or MP3 to mmf format?
I could not fine a list of files usable as ringtones in the user guide. After a week with this phone, the seller showed me a statement on the outside of the box it came in. It says it is polophonic compatible. It does not list WAV, Midi, MP3 or other types of files-- nor does the manual.
I was able to download a file with a .mmf extention and it did work. I do not know anything about that type of file. I did find a site that has free files that can be downloaded. I guess they are polophonic. They sound a little funny, but my download did work. One of the workers at the place I bought it told me about the site. MyPhoneFiles.com I understand they also have a Cingular website that has ringtones. I do not know if they are free.
If anyone knows how to convert MP3, Midi or WAV files to polophonic (or .mmf) please let me know.
How did you get the mmf file to transfer to your phone? I only know of LG COntents Bank and I am one of millions that keeps getting the CME-3 error. Nobody seems to know what this means or how to work around it? Please let me know what to do and what can be done.
