hey..i recently purchased the Black jack 2 and its a nice phone...but i was wondering if i could use the mp3 songs i have on the phone as ring tones..if i can....how?anyone here can help me out?

You can use mp3's as ringtones only if they are 300kb or less. I had this problem with mine. Just get a wav editor program and shorten the part of the song you want.

The only thing that's strange is you can't set a ringtone for a text message allert unless it's in your docs folder, not in a subfolder.

I'm having a problem with the length of my text tones. I figured out how to set the tone for my texts, but sometimes it is way too long. On my old phone, when I went to the text, the tone would stop, but for some reason with this phone I can't figure out how to make it stop.

Any suggestions?

Edit the sound file to make it shorter.
That's one of the fun things with Windows Mobile 6 and 6.1
For some reason Microsoft made it finish the Text Message Indicator sound, no matter if you read it, are reading it, or click on Read Later. It will play the sound file from start to finish.
