I just upgraded to a 3595 on Cingular. How do I send ringtones to this
phone? Is a data cable my only real option?
Thanks

You can push up ringtones under the free trial section.

There are third party companies, like ours, that offer ringtones to
Cingular customers. To take full advantage of the capabilities of the
3595 phone, you need to set up internet service (WAP) with Cingular.
(A few dollars a month.) That handset accepts polyphonic ringtones as
well as color screensavers and animations via WAP connection. It's a
simple download.

Re: How do I send ringtones to a 3595 through Cingular?
Yeah, right. He can use your service and pay $2.00 per download/song
when the other one (www.itsmycellphone.com) gives you TOTAL CONTROL OF
YOUR PHONE and you never have to buy a ringtone again if you can find
yourself MIDI ringtone files (of which there are MILLIONS on the
internet).
And if he has his own MIDI ringtone files, for a $1.50/month he
doesn't have to buy them from you for $2.00 EACH and he can send
UNLIMITED tones for $1.50
Let me see, $2.00 EACH for yours or $1.50 for UNLIMITED? Do the math
sweetie.
I'm not even going to mention that if he uses KAZAA and searches under
EVERYTHING for "ringtones" he can get thousands of ringtones on the
P2P network. Then all he needs is a way to send them to his phone.
For that he can go to www.itsmycellphone.com= and pay $1.50 and send
1000 tones, 1000 wallpapers, 1000 images from his digital camera,
ANYTHING, UNLIMITED for only $1.50.
Or he can buy the cable for $29.95 and spend 12 hours trying to figure
out how to get them into his phone.
Or he can go to zingy.com and pay a lot less for each one than what
you are charging.
I think the future is clear. People will find a way to get the stuff
onto their phones and the $2.00 per download is going the way of $18
Music CD's with 2 good songs and 10 crappy ones.
And what makes a ringtone worth $2.00 which is nothing but a digitized
instrumental of an original tune? The original music costs $0.99 at
Apple.com per track. Why would someone pay double that for a poor
rendition of the original?

I've had mine from T-Mobile for about a month. I just had a long call
with a tech -- the last three times they've been saying "Well yes,
T-Zones are down, but they should be back soon."
I don't need T-Zones. I want my cell phone to be a very useful phone,
not a weak teletype device. But that seemed the best way to pull ringtones.
There's no "Composer" on this phone, and the built-in selection of tones
is less than on the 3390 it replaced or the 5xxx that that replaced.
The tech didn't get me T-zones, but he talked me through pushing
ringtones from the web site, at 99 cents a piece. (I don't need a lot,
just enough to distinguish some callers from others.)
Why isn't there a simple software solution (or if there is, what is it?)
so that I can package up sounds on the PC side as MIDIs, and send them
as mail to <my_cell_phone>@tmomail.net?
And now that I've got some semi-decent tones (I miss the ones I was using
on the 3390) I want to assign them to callers. I know it's been asked
before, but can distinctive rings be assigned to individual callers on
the 3595? (As opposed to the 5 "Groups"?)
A new 3595 with a new battery seems to last about twice as long on
standby as an old 3390 with an old, slightly thicker, battery, but
other than that, and the fact that double-tapping "pick up" doesn't
kill the call, how is it better? Automatic keypad lock (if it's
not in a "mode" -- if it is it doesn't lock) is neat; sleep timer
on the profile is good, but not as good as "Use 'DISCREET' on
Mondays through Fridays, from 9am to 6pm; else use 'OUTDOOR'.
The games are different, but I don't find them any better; I
don't see what good color does for me.
So what has Moore's Law, and another 1-year commitment, actually
gotten me?
