Is there a way to send ringtones to my phone besides USB and Bluetooth? How do I get an .mp3 that's on my website or computer onto my phone? Thanks!

To get an MP3 file from web or your pc to your phone, first open up a session on AIM, then send the message to +1(then ur cell phone #) example: +15551233623. Your phone will then receive a text message. Open it and select GOTO from the options menu. The phone will download it and all u have to do is store it. 😎

Thanks... it's not working for me. When in AIM on my computer, I can send a text message fine using what you said, and my phone gets it. But when I try to send a file, I get an error message on AIM on my computer that says something along the lines of "this user does not support file sharing" or something like that. Any ideas? Thanks!

THANKS! I got it! I just pointed myself to the file on the web, rather than trying to actually send the file. Thanks again!

A great way to do custom ringtones for this phone is using the Motorola Phone Tools software and the Motorola Data Cable. You can purchase this software for around $50 (sadly, its Windows only). When you have the phone connected, select Media Manager, and you can load up an MP3 file, select a section of it, click one button and the software loads your selection into the phone for use as a ringtone. Easy as pie.
