I just got a new v3a razr from alltel and i cannot use mp3 files as ringtones. I can transfer the files via bt from another phone or from my pc and the transfer fine. I can view them in the media gallery and even listen to the there but there is no option to apply as ringtone like there is in my older razr. Also these mp3's do not show up in the ringtone list to set them as ringtones that way. According to Alltel customer service they say they don't allow mp3's downloaded via bluetooth to be used as ringtones. Does anyone know a way that I can make this work? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's not Alltel. I have Alltel too. I had a black Razr V3a until last week; got a new one that is Gray with Celltop. I was having the same problem, so took it back to the store. Spoke to a guru there (he pulled up the article online)----it is Motorola. LG and Motorola have new software on the new phones blocking transfer of data. You must pay for ringtones downloaded directly from the Axcess shop. If someone sends you a ringtone or you download one from the net, you cannot apply it or set it as a ringtone. Motorola claims this helps to ensure you do not download corrupted files or viruses. I believe it is a money issue. But if you find a way arounf it, please let me know too.

Just recieved my first bluetooth phone, and was excited about finally swapping ringtones. My problems are the same as the first poster. Anyone figure a way around this yet? Can you use a voice recording or is that blocked also?
