Heidileann, how do you make songs you put on your SD card into ring tones? I have no usb cable and only wanna use the SD card. Thanks for your help.

to get into the secret menu on the LG VX8550 you have to press ##77647268550, then send, and then enter all the 0s

What I just found that was cool was the VZW Song ID feature under getitnow/music&tones/getnewringtones.
That ish ROCKS!

I found it to be really cool that when someone TXT messages you a ringtone/song you are able to select to save as ringtone and set it right away to either a ringtone, alert, or personal id, or save it as a sound to your phone in your library.
