bitpim help. phone wont recognize new ringtones

so i use bitpim to add ringtones to the correct folder and it shows the ringtone in that folder. i turn off the phone, then on again and there are no new ringtones there. tried it several times with several different mp3 files. any advice on where i should go next??

You let Bitpim do all the work right? You shouldn't have to add the ringtones to any folder, just have bitpim move the ringtones from your computer to your phone, and you should be set.

Make sure that the file isn't to big.

Also, make sure there are no foreign characters in the file name. Example's of those characters are: !, @, #, $, %, ^, &, *, (, ), -, +, =....and so on.

Make sure that the file name isn't over 12 characters in length, or the phone won't recongnize the ringtone.

what is the max file size and in what format should the files be saved. all i have are mp3 files, no ringtone files. whats the difference? is there a program that will convert an mp3 file to the correct format (im assuming .wav or .midi).

thanks for the help so far.

are you using the music manager when you plug in the USB or bitpim?

If you are using bitpim, you are probably putting it in the wrong folder...what folder are you putting it in?

In my experience, I put mp3's as they are into the phone never converting them. No need, the phone is mp3 compatible. The problem now is that the tags are all messed up because I never change them properly...
