Mobile PhoneTools version 3.0 software

Has anyone used this software with there Motorola Phone yet?

What I want to do is try and get some music files I have on my computer into the phone via this software and use that song as a ringtone......I am trying to do that with my v505, is that even possible?

--Also, if anyone has personal experience please do share.

*Instead of purchasing the cable can I use a BlueTooth USB Adapter?

*And instead of purchasing the CD Software, can I just download these drivers and it will work?

I use the software to sync my phone book and calendar to Outlook on my computer. Unfortunately, I have Verizon Wireless and they seem to have locked out the ability to transfer ringtones and pictures to my phone from the computer.

As for your subsequent questions, I believe there is a post that I read on these forums regarding using bluetooth instead of the cable. Personally, I bought the cable and the software on eBay for less than $21.00, so I am not complaining (at least not about that...).

Here is a post with a link to download the MPT 3.0 software.

Well I have AT&T so idk if they also locked the ringtone feature, is there anyone who can confirm that?

Hello, I have a Cingular Razr and MPT and I use bluetooth to transfer ring tones, etc. It works fine and I can do it without having to take my phone out of the case. You can also use the software to get on the internet using the phone as a modem. I bought the software on E-bay. It was legitmate, official software. Unlike other software I have bought.

OK Since I have bluetooth on this phone, I wil buy a usb adapter for my computer and use that...

And also instead of purchasing the software can I download this?

Would it work or not?
Thanks

Also how do you send ringtones to your phone, is there certain format the file needs to be in to be able to play on my phone?

I am not sure what the software link you provided contains, but I don't believe it is the Motorola Phone Tools package that will allow you to synchronize your phone book and calendar, or allow you to work with your pictures and ringtones.

The software you want is found in this forum: Mobile Phone Tools , graciously provided by Griffzan

^^but thats for the razr, right? Will it work with my v505?

The software is released by Motorola, and is designed to work for all Motorola phones. You just have to run Live Update a couple of times to make sure that your phone is recognized.

So I would use this prorgram?--

And, also do the ring tones need to be in any special format to be able to be read on the web?

And, is there a program that you use or know of that I can upload my music file in there and shorten it a little bit?

THANKS ALOT FOR ALL YOUR HELP

If you are using a USB Bluetooth adapter, you shouldn't even need the MPT software. It should just show up in your Bluetooth places as a network drive.

As far as software goes to shorten songs into ringtones, Sony Sound Forge is a good one for cutting mp3's into short clips. But you can also use DBPowerAmp to convert mp3's int wav format, then shorten them with sound recorder, then use PowerAmp again to convert it back to mp3 format.

I am using VERIZON RAZR V3c

I am currently using ringtones and picutres which is from COMPUTER through USB.

Try with MPT again....... initialize phone again.

This was interesting.

the link doesn't work anymore i think
