How come it doesn't think that Bell has this phone?? Help!

Thanks!

im in the same boat...

you can either try to download a newer version of bitpim and see if your phone is on that list, or manually change the settings to the VX8550 (verizon's chocolate). Then go to view> view filesystem. when a orange filesystem icon appears in the icon tree to the left, click on it to bring up the filesystem pane. Click on the blue folder and wait till the filesystem tree drops down. If you can get that far, then you are in luck, if not then you'll have to think of a different way to add ringtones. good luck

Mine won't work from that. It doesn't have the 16452 folder. Maybe it's because i'm on a VX8550 not 8500.

All you have to do is connect your phone to your computer via usb then go thru my computer and open the folder that contains your phones files there should be like around 4. The thing is there is a HIDDEN folder named "RINGTONES" so you have to go to the menu at the top "VIEW">Toolbars>Customize then look for the "folder options" and add it to your tool bar. Now click on "Folder Options" in your toolbar and go down to a part taht it says show hidden files (says not recommended) enable it and go back to the fold and you'll see teh RINGTONE fodl just drag and drop into that folder!!!

NOTE: Disable it if u have young children or careless people using ur computer because u don't want them to delete a vital hidden file somewhere else in your system

I tried doing this but no "Ringtone" folder appears after I change the folder option to show hidden files.
