Getting Custom Ringtone on LG VX8700 From External Memory


I'm trying to get some ringtones that I used with my Moto E815 onto my LG VX8700. I've transfered them to my "My_Sounds" folder on the Flash Memory, and transfered them over to the phone, but I can't seem to find a way to enable them as a ringtone instead. They are 1-2mb each, MP3. Any help would be apperciated!

I believe you will need to use Bitpim to either put the ringer in the correct directory in the phone's base memory - or use BitPim to enable the phone to use the file on the SD card as a ringer. Either way need to get BitPim working through the USB cable. If your VX8700 has a Verizon firmware used to block transferring files with BitPim, search Howard Forums for how to get around it. BitPim web site may not tell you what to do for the VX8700 yet, but I believe their FAQ for the ringtones on the VX8500 will apply to the VX8700 directly or can be adapted to the different model.

Good luck.

I was hoping that wasn't the case . It is a verizon phone. I've ordered the Datacable this morning, Thanks for the reply.
