Cingular and Verizon RAZR's not compatible

Hello All,

I have a Cingular/AT&T RAZR (basic RAZR--black--purchased in Nov 2006) that
I use with MPT (Up to date) and can transfer ringtones, pixs, contacts, etc.
to my wife's phone (identical phone) via Bluetooth.

My co-worker has a Verizon BAZR (pink--most likely older than mine).

I tried to Bluetooth a ringtone to her phone and that wouldn't work. The
error message I got was something like "Service not Supported" (don't
remember for sure).

When I hooked her phone up to my computer to use w/ MPT, the computer saw it
as a completely different device and installed a different driver for it.
Also, when I opened MPT, the "skin" for her phone was even different from
mine (MPT reconized her phone automatically, I had to pick my phone from a
list--just picked "V3" but there were several options for V3's, RAZR's, RAZR
V3's, etc.). With my skin in MPT, I have 6 "app's" on the right side to
choose from: Sync, Phonebook, Calendar, Text message, Multimedia Studio, and
Internet Connection. With her phone, there are only 3 of these "app's". I
don't remember which ones, but I know Multimedia Studio was NOT one of them.

I made a couple of ringtones for her with MPT and I'm trying to figure out
how to transfer them to her phone w/o incurring charges for MMS messages
(well, I sent one via MMS msg--the other one was too big--and I want to
avoid MMS msgs in the future)

WTF?!?! What is the deal here? Why can't I Bluetooth to her phone or use MPT's
Multimedia/File Transfer studio with her phone? Is there any way to get
either of these 2 ways to work so I don't have to MMS msg the ringtones to
her? (how would I find out exactly what version of RAZR's her and I have?)

Thanks for any help anyone can provide,

Conan Kelly

Which service do you have from Cingular, CDMA or GSM (the old AT&T service
was GSM). Verizon is CDMA and your friend's phone is probably a V3C. If
you have GSM service, yours is probably a V3. If so, it is completely
different on the inside. As was already responded to your duplicate
posting, Verizon cripples the file transfer and bluetooth capabilities on
their phones.

I see you're using OE, it does sometimes send messages twice, I don't
know why it does that, but someone probably can figure it out?

E Meyer,

Thanks for the feedback.

I have no idea what service I have. How would I find out?

Thanks again,

If you have to use a SIM card in the phone, you have GSM.

Look at the top of your cell phone bill and you'll find the name of your
carrier. That says it all.
