ringtones and picture ids

menu > contacts > new contact PRESS OPTIONS > advanced > default contacts > SWITCH TO PHONE CONTACTS instead of SIM CONTACTS.

thats all.
it fixes the "5 tab options"
but as for ringtone..i tried helping
but i think you probably did a step wrong ><~
maybe try finding a video / screencap tutorial.
lmk if you have problems or anything

ROGERS have their phone all locked , and you cant use all the functions sony ericsson provides .. which sucks .

ringtone theres are 2 WAYS:

1) UNLOCK your phone , that will cost money haha
2) the CHEAP WAY , download the "DRM PACKAGER" from the SE site. that program will convert your song or ringtone to a .drm file and you can transfer the music to your phone with the usb . and you can set that as ringtone.
IT WORKS , IVE TRIED IT ! : ) ... but if you get your phone unlocked theres no need to go throught all that hassle : P

edit: didnt see you tried the drm thing .. try it again it works.

when you create the file , the program will create two other folders in the output file you specify.
one folder is named DRM and another folder inside called RIGHTS.
you drag the the song file with a lock thing icon to your phone.

for ringtones, just convert the files to WAV and upload them onto your phone.
it always works for me!

^What I do is convert the ringtunes(i make them by using windows movie maker)
into MP3 &then use DRM
