    Hi, I'm not expereinced with that program Bitpim, and I was wondering if there was a way to just use the MINI SD card to transfer ringtones to your phone. I have a slot that holds SD cards and my Mini SD came with an SD adapter, so I am able to take files right off of my laptop and put them on my mini SD card. So can't I just format the file and put it on my phone? (LG the V phone)

    Re: MP3 Ringtones Using Just Mini SD?

    ok...i didnt want to link to another forum so i post what i use....this works perfectly.

    VX8100 Ringtone Application.

    This application’s main purpose is to allow you to load up to 155 ringtones in your “My Ringtones” folder on your phone. It’s about as simple as one could ask for. First, you will need the data cable and BitPim. I’ll demonstrate two scenarios here. I don’t have my miniSD card yet, but this should work PERFECTLY!

    • You have a miniSD card with your MP3s loaded in the my_sounds subfolder on the card.
    1. Open the VX8100 ringtone application
    2. Choose the drive letter of your miniSD card using the drop down box for the drive letter (this assumes you have a SD card reader. If you don’t, you’ll need to keep a mirror of all files you have on your SD card in a specific local hard drive folder.)
    3. Browse to the my_sounds subfolder
    4. All of your MP3s should show up in the right browser pane.
    5. Make sure the “Path on phone” is listed as “mmc1/my_sounds/”
    6. Click “Go”
    7. The file you need (my_ringtone.dat) will be created IN a folder beneath the one you’ve browsed to. The application will tell you where it is. Keep in mind where it’s at.
    8. Open BitPim, go to the /dload folder, and right-click the my_ringtone.dat and choose “Overwrite”. Browse to the one you made a note of, and go!
    You don’t even need to reboot the phone, you’re done! Install the miniSD card and you should be all set!

    • You don’t have a miniSD card and want to load a bunch of ringtones – MIDI, MP3, or what not.
    1. I recommend that you create a folder on the phone’s filesystem called “/ring”. This allows us to have longer song file names .
    2. Browse to the folder on your computer that you have exactly the same files you have in whatever folder on your phone. (For example, you’ve copied a bundle of files to /ring/song1.mp3 /ring/song2.mp3 etc on the phone. Browse to a local folder on your computer where song1.mp3, song2.mp3, etc. are located. Basically keep a mirror on your computer)
    3. Choose or type the folder name using the “Path on phone” box. Don’t put a preceding “/” in that box, use the same naming scheme as the predefined selections.
    4. Click “Go”
    5. The file you need (my_ringtone.dat) will be created IN a folder beneath the one you’ve browsed to. The application will tell you where it is. Keep in mind where it’s at.
    6. Open BitPim, go to the /dload folder, and right-click the my_ringtone.dat and choose “Overwrite”. Browse to the one you made a note of, and go!

    All set! No need to reboot the phone, just open your menu and browse for the ringtones!!

    I'm still a little bit confused. How do you "open the vx8100 ringtone application" what does that mean. And where do you chose the drive letter?
    Sorry, but the first couple steps aren't clear to me.
