    I have the Motorola tools for my RAZR and I am thinking about creating my
    own ringtone from an mp3. But I haven't been able to find out how long it
    should be. What makes my phone ring? Does it get a "start ringing now"
    signal from the tower and then continues to ring every so often? Or does it
    get a "ring now" signal from the tower every so often? I'm curious about
    that. But what really matters is how long should/can my ringtone be? What
    will happen if it is longer than the interval between ring signals?

    Thanks, Bob

    It gets a single ring command, and then plays whatever ringtone is
    selected for a maximum of 30 seconds, until you either answer, the call
    goes to voicemail, or is forwarded.

    I have a Samsung A707... I love the audio record fuction...I record a
    snippet(30 seconds long or there abouts) from one of my favor songs the set
    it as a selected ringtone... I have several of my contact with various
    tunes...suiting them...works great when a call comes in and you can't look
    down and see who's calling...I have my Mother's ringtone set at the Jaws
    theme :-))))) :-) Liz

    On Cingular(?) phones, the default ring
    duration is 30 seconds. You can change
    it by dialing a string in the format of
    this example:

    *61*17073010007**15#

    ....and then pressing SEND as though you
    were making a call.

    The 11-digit phone number in the example,
    17073010007, is one of Cingular's many voice-
    mail deposit numbers. You must substitute
    the 11-digit VM deposit number for your
    particular account. Cingular will probably
    tell you the number if you ask; they told me.

    The "15" in the example is the desired
    ring-cycle duration in seconds. The only
    acceptable values are 05, 10, 15, 20, 25,
    and 30.

    >I wonder what her ringtone is for you ? The Gomer Pile theme ?

    Does being the village idiot come naturally,
    or do you have to work at it?
