MP3 ringtones

Hi Can anyone help please?
I've got an mp3 file I have downloaded onto my new Nokia 6630 (on
Vodafone).
It plays OK, but I can't set it to be a ringtone.
Vodafone say because I haven't purchased it through them, and a cookie
hasn't been downloaded with it, I can't use it!

Is there any way round this?

Oh, wow. That's crazy. It's like a new form of locking phones.

Is it possible to have the phone "flashed" with some non-Vodafone version of
it's softare that doesn't have that limitation? Call up your local Nokia
authorized service center to find out.

And then call them back when the phone doesn't work.

That's limitations by Vodafon branded N6630, i have TIM branded 6630 but I use
it on Croatian GSM operator, and i can set mp3 as ring tone normaly. And it
was not locked :-)
Flashing phone should help.
Vodafone cripled 6630 by it's soft :-((
