How can I email mid tones to the phone and then set as a ringer?
That means that your phone has a small glitch in setting up your retrieval of pic messages. I had two phones that had this same exact problem. The first one I brought into the vzw store and had a tech play with it and fix it. The second time I was so pissed....I called 611 and did it over the phone with a tech. Mind you that it took me over 45 min on the phone with them. Call from your cell phone and then give them a land line # and they'll call you back on the landline.
You can send pics, and ringtones using the conversion mp3 to .mid. I did it on the v710, on the 9900, and on my current 8000.
Hope it helps 😁
OK heres how you can tell if you have a problem recieving pics.
The problem you describe is using .mid (sound),
but if your phone really just hasnt been totally set up like Im saying, than you shouldn't be able to recieve pics either. Thats how I figured out my phone was acting up, I asked someone to send me a pic and it told me to go to the pix site to view it.
send yourself a pic from the computer, or email me direct [email protected] and give me your #, I will send you a pic that I have sent to my 8000 and know that it works. I'll also send you some tunes that I have also alrteady sent.

You were right, can't send myself pics . I thought I corrected this problem the other night when i upgraded to a pix/text package and they said it would take up to 2 hours to reactivate the mms network, damn , back to calling them again, i think i've been on the phone with them longer than my girlfriend. I have to wait until later, no (land line). So if i change a pic to .mid from jpeg it will come thru? how about a short flick from my pc maybe mpeg or avi? will the phone open it up?"
Hope it helps
