Select "contacts".
Highlight contact you wish to assign ringer to.
Press menu/ok button.
Select "options".
Highlight "edit contact" and press menu/ok button.
Scroll down and highlight "ring".
Press menu/ok.
Highlight "my videos" and press menu/ok button.
Highlight "memory card" and press menu/ok button.
Highlight the ringer file you wish to use and select "assign".
Select "done".
It now shows the contact details and you need to make sure you assigned the correct file. It should be something like "sspx0011". Get the person to call you to test it out. This is how I did mine. If it doesn't work for you, I'm not sure what else to try. Hope this helps.

i figured it out had to make the file name one word....go figure thx for ya'lls help

No problem. Glad it worked out.

When I go to select ringer...I don't get the option of my video's, just ring tones, my melodies and my content.
I'm really frustrated.

My phone gives me the following options when I click "ok" to change the ringer when editing the contact.

1. default ringer
2. download ringers
3. other ringers
4. my videos
5. no ringer

I had to use option 4 to get mine to work.

couldn't be that I have the Samsung Slyde M540?
It looks exactly like the Rant

That's very possible. I don't know anything about those phones, so I can't say for sure.

I am wondering about how to do this, but I have a mac. Is there free converter software out there?

what do i need to do in order to upload music from my pc library to my phone in order to use them for ringtones? i just got this phone and i've tried to sync them to the phone but if i do that then i can't select the mucis for a ringtone it just stays as mp3.

Reduce the mp3 into a 30 second or less audio clip. Go to sprintusers. com/focus/ to upload and send to your phone.

so far so good, but of course one issue... the file is to large and won't open on my phone... The phone tells me that it exceeds 512K.

how do i reduce the size of the mp3 file before converting it to 3g2?

thank you in advance!

I got it! But I was wondering if you can set the ringers for when people text me. When I go to select ringer, it doesn't show the My Videos option. Only my stuff, my melodies and then the default phone ringers. Any advice? THANKS!

Buy a new phone. I have tried every way to get the ringers for free. It's impossible to get free ringers on the Samsung Rant. Anyone who offers you suggestions own (or are working for) the websites they tell you to use. None of them will work. Sprint tech support says it's the 3g network. It's setup to block out all those sites. And they seem to have also have protected themselves in a lot of other ways that I've tried.

If you are pissed off about not getting free ringtones on your Samsung Rant, don't ever buy a Samsung phone or 3g phone again.

In short: 3g phones don't allow free ringtones. Buy a different phone, or buy the ring tones that you want.

Changing the format of the Mp3 and uploading it to your phone would sound pretty slick, but it DOES NOT WORK. This was the first thing I tried, but Samsung anticipated this, so it takes it right off once you assign it. Or if it sticks, it won't play any sound. There's no way to get free ringtones on a Samsung Rant. It's a 3g phone and they've cut off all ways to get free ringtones. That especially includes using a website as a third party to send yourself the ringtones. Any blog post suggesting that you use a website is written by someone trying to promote their site.

The easiest way to download ringtones for the Rant is to go to Mixxer.com.
Just choose a ringtone that you want to download.Copy the web page URL of that ringtone. Now log into your Sprint PCS account. Under the 'My Sprint' tab you will see a text messaging section in the bottom right hand corner. Paste the URL into the message box and enter the phone number that you want the text message sent to in the 'Recipient Phone Number' box. Once you receive the message you should be able to link in and and download ringtones for free.
