It requires hacking into your phone with a USB cable if you have the verizon version and I don't know how to do it for the gsm version.

[bomii1004]

oh really?
yeah..i dont know how to do that...haha im not good at stuff like that.
but i do have the verizon version of the phone...

[M$]

You have to buy the USB and I think the music kit, if you haven`t, I also have the
chocolate phone, but I don`t know how to do that yet because I don`t have it yet,
so I rather use bluetooth, haha, but I can`t add it as my ringtone ><

Oh i knoe !! You can send a cut song as a msg and just save it as a ringtone they have that option. but you need to like find a program that makes the song shorter send it to yrself thru an email adress to your phone and then you can go to options and it should work as a ringtone, works for me =]

[Batgirl]

Ok. I know exactly how to do it, i have the phone myself. and even this way works for the latest verizon phones. But how do i put it in simple terms.

Basically you need two programs. (these are free downloadable programs)
One.) To cut the ringtone however you want
Two.) To convert the ringtone to mp3

After you do it all, you email it to your phone (your phones email is your complete number@vzwpix.com example:3145551234@vzwpix.com). And your phone will recieve it as a text msg. You will be given an option as to "save as ringtone". Then voila.
Only thing you hae to pay for is the text msg. Unless u have a text msging pack.

Respond to this thread by the weekend. If i see you do. I will go in ultimate detail on how to do it with pictures.

you can do what batgirl said (KEK) , or what i did to my phone (lg vx8300) was get the data cable from the music kit, have a program to cut my ringtones and then use the program called BitPim to get into the phone and put my ringtones on there

i dont know if bitpim supports the 8600 though

EDIT: i just checked and yes the program does support the phone.

Anyone know how to put songs as ringtones for the GSM version?

[clee86]

I used a site (tera-tones or something), they allow uploading of mp3's, cut out part for a ringtone, and then send it via text. It worked surprisingly well.

[jeffy]

I have the gsm version of K800.

It came with a USB cable so I just split my MP3 files and then just transfer via USB and voila!

[`faded]

does it work for older phones on verizon like the Samsung 930....the black one that can play mp3s or wahtever..cause I've tried using teratones..and it says that file is too big to recieve

[n4n45h1]

i wouldnt call it hacking, but you need the usb cable as well as bitpim

[`faded]

nvm..haha got it to work..great! LOL

How to cut and add ringtones to most recent model of verizon phones (razrs, choco, flip choco for sure can do this)

You must have two programs for this:
1.) Audacity 1.3 Beta [for windows 2000/xp/vista click here to install ; For windows 98/ME click here to install]
2.) mp3/wma converter [click here, and on the left click "free mp3 wma converter. Then click on download]

How to cut your ringtone (looks like a lot of info but trust me, once you do it once. Its so easy to make ringtones again after)

once you have the first program. Open it up, then go to "File" then to "open" and choose the song you want to make a ringtone out of. Once you load it, it should look like this (minus the coloring i did =] )



Red box) It will say something like 4400. CHANGE IT to 22050.

Ok. Now you will play the song (play button near top). As you are listening to the song, look at the box where i had marked a neon green arrow pointing. You want to write down the number of the exact moment you want your ringtone to start. So lets say 2 minutes 10 seconds into the song is right when your favorite part goes on. The neon green arrow pointing box should say "130 seconds".

Now take that number and place it in the first box with the fuscia arrow pointing (next to the red box). Its pretty obvious coz it says "Selection start"
In the box next to it you'll see two bubbles above it. You have a choice.
Choice 1.) Click the "End" bubble. Then type in the seconds of when in the song you want the ringtone to end. For example, So we started our imaginary ringtone at 130 seconds. Your favorite part ends at 170 seconds. So put it in! =)
Choice 2.) Click the "Length" bubble. This is the easier one. Most ppl don't care where in the song the ringtone ends so long as its at least 30 secs, or whatever seconds long. So if you just want your ringtone to be 50 seconds long, put in "50". That easy.

Ok, now it should look kinda like this (well depending on your song duh of course =] )



Yellow box.) You'll notice at the time line, it's grayed out. That is your ringtone you choose.
In my example picture. I started it at 2 mins 10 secs (130 seconds) and just made my ringtone 60 seconds in length.

NOW! to PERFECT it! =)
Press play, the player should now only play the gray section. Lets say you were off by a second or two. Or you want it longer. DO NOT adjust it by trying to move the gray area. USE THE FUSCIA part boxes. Change the seconds, lengths, however you need it to. Relisten till you think you got it perfect =D

Brown box.) Once it's all perfected, click that sucker! What that does is clip off everything that isn't your ringtone.

Almost theeeerrreee!



You're ringtone should now look like that!
Go to "File"
Down to "Export as"
and to "wav"
Just save it on your desktop so it's easier to find later.

Once it's done exporting
On to the next program!
Oh yea to remind you. If you cut another ringtone. Close and reopen the program. And make sure you change that number again to 22050

How to turn that ringtone into mp3

Open up your converter program. Go to "File" and open up the ringtone you cut (should be wav file!)



Purple box.) You need your program to say those details, so click on the button in the red box



Brown box.) you want it to be 32 kbit. So slide the thingy till it says it

Dark teal boxes.) Just click them till they match my picture

Green arrows.) Click apply, then press ok....

Once you get to the main part, Click the button "Convert" at the bottom!
You've officially made a ringtone!!!!! If you cant find your now mp3 ringtone, open back your program (the converter) and see where it says "out path" (should be the second box above my purple box in the first pic of the converter program). Thats where they saved the file.

How to send your now awesome customized ringtone to your phone

Go to your email
Open up a email msg
In the "to" box put your phone number including area code @vzwpix.com
EXAMPLE.) 4085551234@vzwpix.com

Attach the ringtone you made (remember, not the wav from the first program, but the file that came out the converter. It should be mp3)

AND SEND!

When you recieve the text. Click options on your phone and "save as ringtone"
If you didn't recieve the text, go to vzwpix.com and make an account. Then try again.

Only downside is for ppl without text messaging packs have to pay the fee when they recieve the texts.

Hope this was helpful!

[bomii1004]

ahhhhh thank you so much for this!! i am SO excited! lol

[LH<3]

thanks this really really help =] but wat happen if my email doesn't work cuz i recieved a email back saying tat the mail wasn't sent any idea how? and vzwpix.com won't work

[jess89]

i tried using those 2 programs and made a ringtone. it sounds nice on my computer but when i sent it to my phone, it sounded really low quality (blaring when the person is singing :/) on my phone. am i doing something wrong or does it usually ruin some of the sound quality?

[yowzatheman]

hahaha oh man that smiley face looks so ghetto KEK

[Batgirl]

YOURE GHETTO HARRY! =D Wheres my fake bag =)

you made sure you changed the number rates and everything right? it should sound kinda one dimensional on your computer. Not as good as your other mp3's.
I know for one of my songs it sounds kinda like distorted only because the singer is christina auguilara and her voice pitch is crazy so comes out my phone kinda cackled. If you tone down your ringer volume level does it help or is it still weird sounding



for vzwpix.com i know this is weird but you cant directly type it in to get to it. LOL. You have to go on google, type vzwpix.com and click the search result.
