Hi,

I am in Toronto, Ontario Canada and I have Motorola V220 and my provider is Rogers Wireless. I don't know what the US equalivalent...feel free to check out the phone at www.motorola.ca or www.rogers.com . But my question is....i would like to make my own MP3 ringtones from music that i have. My phone does have bluetooth technology..but i don't want to purchase a usb adapter. Can someone tell me step by step how i go about transforming to music from my CD into a ringtone and getting it to my phone without an adapter? Like the software i would need...freeware preferable to transferring it..the lenght of time i need to cut it down to and the kb and all that jazz and how i go out getting it to my phone. Thanks
Ravi

Hey, a fellow Torontonian! (Me: Scarborough, Motorola c650, Rogers)

If you don't want to use Bluetooth, the only other 2 options are WAP (connect to internet on phone, can get expensive, as you get charged for it) and mini USB. The v220 should have mini USB. You need the 5-pin mini USB cable that comes with most digital cameras, or with other accessories (mine came with a flash card reader). (If you don't have, you can buy one cheap some places in Toronto, maybe $5-10).

The softwares you will now need are as follows: Mobile Phone Tools (MPT) for pics and audio, MIDway and JADgen for games (*if you want, that is), and Motorola PST for drivers. Luckily these are all available at www.motclub.com. (Though the site is all in Spanish). Go to "Programmes" in the menu bar, and get BOTH versions, install the older one, then "upgrade" to the new one. Then install PST. When you first plug in the phone via USB, windows will look for drivers. XP should find it automatically, if not, send it to look in the prog. files/motorola/pst folder for it. I never got it to work on Win98... never detected drivers... piece of crap.

To make your CD music into MP3, simply use Windows Media Player (Copy Form CD). I suggest putting the setting on the lowest quality, this is only a cell phone speaker, and low memory capacity (the c650 is only 1.5 mb!!).
To edit/cut the mp3, search www.download.com for the right software, there are tons of different ones. (Search audio or MP3 editor).

Once you have everything ready, plug in the USB, fire up MPT, and click on the media manager. From there, simply load your audio/video/picture files on or off your phone, from/to the appropriate folder!!

If you need any more help, just leave another message here, or your e-mail address and I'll be glad to help.

I don't think it matters. As far as I know, motclub has the latest version, and it works fine. All you really need it for is enabling the Java Loader. Any version should do it. The only thing you might need a newer version for is te more advanced functions, most of which I am not familiar with.

I went to MotoClub, the spanish site, and got the first version of Mobile Phone Tools, but the updated version is no longer available.

Hi,

I was just curious...once i make my own ringtone...is there anyway i can send the tone to my phone either by email or SMS. Are there free sites that would allow you to do this. Keep in mind that i have composed my own ringtone and would like to send it to my phone without a USB, or Bluetooth or any physical connection to the computer. I would like to email or SMS...please advise. Thanks
