i don't know if it's a sprint thing or an LG thing, but my phone would not play an mp3 ringtone at all! it said it was not a supported MIME type. anyway i figured out a very easy way around it!!!
i asked in the forum and someone told me to convert the file to wav then reconvert it to qcp (qualcomm purevoice) but by the end of all that converting it sounded like a really bad AM radio.
on a whim, i decided to try changing the filetype without converting it, just by simply erasing '.mp3' from the end and replacing it with '.qcp' and all of a sudden my phone plays any mp3 ringtone i send to it. changing the extension to .qcp did the trick for me!!!
i hope someone thinks this is useful
there are many uploaders but i use
http://rumkin.com/tools/sprint which works with other brands and providers as well as sprint. read the instructions if you've never used an uploader before...
REMEMBER THAT IF YOU DON'T HAVE SPRINT'S VISION PACKAGE FOR DOWNLOADS, YOU CAN BE BILLED FOR EVERY TIME YOU USE THE UPLOADER, BUT AS LONG AS YOU HAVE VISION IN YOUR PLAN IT'S FREE TO USE.
