No need for free ringtones....

Why not just make your own? Just take your favorite .wav file and
convert it to an mp3 file and upload to the phone. Wav files are free
everywhere. With a little work you have an ample supply of ringtones.

I am trying to do exactly this with the v220 and I am stuck. I have used the
Phone tools and the cable to upload a .wav filt to the phone. ( I tried an
mp3 first, but the phone wouldn't play it.) I would think that if you can
get a tune to the phone and play it you can use it as ringtone.

Where I am now is that I have the audio file on the phone. If I go to Sounds
in My Media on the phone, I can see the file, select it and play it . It
sounds fine. When I look at the details it says the type is a Wav.

There appears to be no way to use this audio file as ring tone. All the
ringtones that I can use on the phone are of the type MIX or MIDI or
IMelody.

How can I get a custom ringtone to the phone? What format should I convert
these files to make ringtones? How can I get this audio file to be a
ringtone?

It's so frustrating!
