Geez, did verizon figure out a way to block emails now too?

Well, after a long absence, I have returned to this forum and thread. I just tested what Skoozz said about renaming the file and it works. Here is the process that I used.
First you need to get the software on this page aznuwee.googlepages.com Its a guide to load ringtones page and install them on your computer. (sorry, I can't post links yet, my post count is not high enough)

I created a 20 sec ring tone in my audio editor program.
connected phone via USB cable to computer.
Opened Motorola software update. (Need to do this so that the next step will work). Go ahead and update your software if it is needed.
Open P2KCommander and select PK2 mobile phone.
In the Phone pane, click on the a folder, then the motorola folder, then the shared folder, then the ringtone folder.

Now, in the other pane, locate the ringtone, and copy it over to the phone.
In the phone pane, click on the ringtone and then the attributes button and remove all attributes.
Then on the phone, go to music and tones, My Ringtones. Find the ringtone, and push the options button and select rename. (What I did was when I saved the ringtone in the audio editor program, I put a 1 in front of the name, then when I renamed it in the phone, just deleted the 1).

Then I went back to P2K Commander, and reset the attributes to system, archive and don't copy.

The ringtone can now be used as you see fit, set to a contact ID or whatever.

Hope that this helps, this sounds like a fairly long process, but hey, its completely free, you don't even have to pay to send the tone to your phone via Verizon. Hope that this helps someone!!!

I have been in the same exact position as many of you with the KRAZR from Verizon. None of the methods I have seen in the forum have worked for me but I have been screwing around with this stupid thing for about a month now to make my own ringtone. This is what I did.....

1) Clip an mp3 into a 20 second or less file (I used tonebee.com)

2) This is what is tricky, the file has to be 200kb or smaller. If it isn't (which it probably wont be) find a program to change the bitrate (I used "4Musics MP3 Bitrate Changer")

3) After modifying the mp3 to be 20 seconds and 200kb, change the file extension to .mid (everyone keeps saying mp3's will work but they didn't for me). No conversions necessary just change the .mp3 part to .mid

The file will go from.....file.mp3 to file.mid

4) Just like everyone says, email the file as an attachment to your#@vzwpix.com (some e-mail providers get blocked by verizon, Yahoo got blocked for me but I just used a different e-mail provider)

5) When you get the file, go to options and of course, you have to save it to MySounds (save the file as the default name)

6) Go to the MySounds section on your phone, go to your newly saved Sound, and hit the center button which says "SEND"

7) Send the pix message back to yourself, from your phone to your phone.

8) When you receive the message, go to options again and save to sounds
HOWEVER, save it as a different name than before

9) I don't know why, but magically THIS file goes to My Ringtones. Enjoy the Ringtone like any other....actually in the Ringtone section

10) You can delete the other sound file and pix messages, they dont matter
I know this seems like a lot to follow but somehow I got this to work when nothing else has.

Ok, i ve been trying everything for a while now, and it even seems to me i find my problem!

When i install driver for krzr (i try good 6-7 of them different age) it does not matter which one MSU taking VERY VERY long time not only first time but second, third.... to find my phone and show me that ESN number, it almost seems that programm getting seized!(((
And because of that no matter what p2kcom i use it eather just cannot see phone or its getting seriesly upset and closing itself i try good 10 of them starting from 3.2.2 and finishing with latest one!

PLEASE PEOPLE HELP ME! Ill probably start new thread if no reply!
