How to Put Ring Tones On a i870

HI
I have a i870 now and i was wondering 2 things, first when you put mp3 songs from off the computer to the momery card is there a way i could make the songs smaller so i could put more on the 32mb card?
Second
How could i put my own ring tones on my phone do i need a usd cable? I tried saving a the song from the memory card to the phone and then set that song ass my ring tone but there was no setting that lets me do that? SOmeone please help!

hi,

answer 1: i think the only way is get a bigger memory card example 512mb or
even a 1gb.

answer 2: u need a usb cable n a software to load the ringtones...search for "webjal" or "myjal"...those r common programs most ppl use.

good luck

You can larn everything you possibly need to know about webjal from Real Free Instructions on how to load Sprint Nextel Ringtones!!! but I suggest avoiding the other mentioned program "myjal" because I've heard reports of it messing up peoples' phones. I use webjal to load ringtones, wallpapers, and apps to my roommate's i450 and it works like a charm. You can even buy the right data cable directly from that site.

If you want to make your mp3 files smaller, I'd recommend a program called DBPowerAmp, I've used it before to reduce the bitrates on ringtones so I could fit more of them on my phone. I think you have to pay for some of the features to work after the trial period is over, I actually stopped using it when the trial ended but it was a pretty cool program for converting mp3 and wav files.

I also use webjal i had myjal at one time but it just was not as good and didnt seem to work just right

what about games?

apps=games (same difference, webjal lods them the same way).

there is a way to compress mp3's so that you can fit more onto your 32k card. i have 30 on mine. i use DBPowerAmp to convert them down smaller...

ok read that page about webjal, when i try to intstall it nothing happins it says it takes about 15min sometimes. So i left the computer on all night and nothing? I have windows media center. Can someone please help.

i tried using myjal and i cant get the program to read the usb driver.

webjal + datacable then you can transfer wav ringtones and wallpapers

i have the data cable its just that webjal is not installing on my computer. It just freezese up at the part where it trys to install those 3 programs at one time. Could someone please help its like i brought this data and i cant even use it.

You have to take your time, and make sure when you are putting items on your phone that you do them one at a time, they load on the phone quicker and easier that way.

I thought that Webjal doesn't work with the media center os?

yeah thats what the site says, do anyone know how to get media center to work?
