    Hello everyone,

    Is there anywhere on the net I can get free ringtones for the
    v551? I'm not talking illegally obtained ringtones... just free
    ringtones that were made by someone and given away for
    free use. I just recently purchased a v551 and after seeing
    just how expensive it is to purchase just one ringtone off
    the Cingular website, I'd like to see if there are any legal
    alternatives that I could choose.

    Heck, never hurts to ask.

    Re: Anywhere I can get FREE ringtones?

    Now why is it that anytime anyone asks a question in a
    newsgroup about how to obtain something, someone has
    to go and open there big fat mouth and call someone
    a troll. I plainly said I wasn't looking to illegally obtain ring
    tones. I simply was looking for free ones that someone
    may have made and were offering for free. That's totally
    different from someone stealing ringtones off of cingular's
    website and giving them away.

    As for making them myself, if I knew how to do that, I sure
    wouldn't be asking here now, would I? This is my first time
    owning a cell phone and I'm not exactly techno savy as
    some other may be.

    Nor do I have the $2.50 it costs per ringtone for every one
    I'd like to download and put on my cell phone. Perhaps you
    have all kinds of money to throw away on ringtones but I've
    got a wife and three children to take care of so I can't go
    and spend $50 on 25 ringtones simply because I'm tired
    of what came with my cell phone when I bought it.

    That's the reason I was looking for someplace that had
    some legally free alternatives that I could download so I
    could have a bit of a change to the ones that came with
    my cell phone.

    Hell, this newsgroup is just like all the others. A person
    comes in here with a simple question hoping to find a little
    help and an answer to a question or two and the first
    thing that happens is some wise ass shoots there mouth.
    You're the reason most people stay out of newsgroups.

    Well to hell with the likes of you and the others like you!

    I'm outta here,
    Bubba Gump

    P.S. - if you're gonna be an ass... at least learn to *****.

    mp3s normally make good ring tones, but make the mp3 about 35kbs this way it
    will ber a small file size
    but you have not told us what your phone is so we cant help much realy on
    how to get it onto your phone

    My apologies for that "John Smith". I only mentioned I had a
    v551 but that doesn't mean anything to anyone who doesn't
    have a v551. The cell phone I have is a Motorola v551 with
    the camera and video built into it. I just recently purchased
    it and on page 80 and 81 are the only references to anything
    about downloading and making ringtones with the phone but
    there's nothing there about putting mp3's on it. Do I need to
    buy a data cable so that I can hook it up to my computer and
    transfer mp3 files to it? That would be really cool...

    I am sorry but I am not familiar with your model of phone.
    Does it have bluetooth?
    Do you have a bluetooth usb dongle?
    If it does and you do, get one of your cd tracks, convert to an mp3 then cut
    it down to about 15 seconds or so using...........
    http://www.mptrim.com/

    ...........is what I did.

    cheers
