hi. im going to buy a se w810 soon and i heard somewhere that using mp3s transfered from ur computer wont always work on the w810 as personal ringtones. and that only ringtones you download onto ur fone from rogers will work as personal ringtones. can someone please tell me if this is true? i heard that debranding it with some software helps solve this problem..but i dont want the debranding to void my warranty...
thx

Re: w810 ringtones with rogers
) Download DRM packager from Miscellaneous Docs and Tools
2) Convert song using the DRM packager
3) Upload it to the proper folder on your phone ( eg. J:\MSSEMC\Media files\audio
4) Unhook the phone from the cable
4) Click on the song, and "create ring tone"
5) You're done, enjoy, no need to flash phone !!!

Re: w810 ringtones with rogers
thanks for the info.
i ended up gettin it flashed at a local store. Most independant cell phone shops will do it for you for about $10. You jsut have to go in and ask if they can since its not exactly advertised in broad daylight.

Re: w810 ringtones with rogers
Easiest way to do that , its to flash/unbrand your phone, please take it to a dealer , but your phone warranty will be void
thanks

Re: w810 ringtones with rogers
Works great! Spent all night browsing through forums till I came across this. Saves me a flash. Worked with Sony W810i unlocked but branded to Rogers.
Also I found the instructions were a bit out of place. Upload the song to the phone first then open it with the DRM and create DRM content. It'll appear in a subfolder in the phone with a little lock icon, you will then be able to select it as a ringtone. Thanks again.Last edited by RyUxWiLL; 08-14-2007 at 01:27 AM.
