So, all I need is got to the website posted above and download the required tools and follow the directions you had posted, and it should work? What I mean is I don't need to buy anything else besides the usb(that I already have)? Thank you so much, Jerry.

Thats correct. Motorola phone tools isn't a free program but if you look around you can probably find it somewhere for download. I paid $10. for the CD and a genuine Motorola USB cable. The cable was worth the $10. so I got the software as an added extra. The link for it is posted in this thread also. Just take your time and double check all the steps before clicking the final part. Not hard at all. The instructions are easier to understand as you do the steps. Just reading them may not make sense without seeing the PC screens.

Glad to help. I'm a newbie at this myself. It felt good to get the phone working the way it should without all the good stuff locked out like Verizon sells them to you (and some of the other companies too).

Hey Jerry, I did my first seem edit. I enabled the vibrate then ring feature. I am a lil confused, I tried to do one with the ringtones I couldn't find offset 6a? I hope I am not confusing you, but it told me to put in 2742 for the seem, 1 for record, then 0000 for the bytes(h) and offset 6a, but there is no 6a, it also told me to check 0 and uncheck 1 I think. Can ya help me? Thanks.

I'm at work right now and all my phone programs are on the home PC so I can't check anything here. I think you are refering to line 8 in the guide I posted. That edit is to allow USB file transfer from the phone to the pc or back the other way. The offset is 006a. If thats the one you are talking about, you need to start at line 60>>>then arrow sideways while watching the offset numbers change to 006a.

I'm just curious, what the difference between the seem edits you showed in your guide jerry and the way I've been doing my transfer of mp3 and ringtones and pictures. I use this guide for ringtones,(http://aznuwee.googlepages.com/) and just generally switch folders to add pictures or wallpapers in p2kcom. I've never done the more complicated seems like you've shown in your guide. I've changed startup and shutdown screens and outside cl screens also, using the guide from (http://www.hacktherazr.com/guide.change.animations.html).
My question is this, what is the benefit of doing the seem edits that you've shown over the guides I've posted here? Once you've done the seem edit is it easier to add things than they way I'm doing it?
I'm asking because I am paranoid of changing anything major in my phones. (These guides are all very easily reversible as long as I save the original files). Thanks!

I looked at the guide you posted and the difference I see the is the use of Motorola Phone tools software. The guide I posted I think was written for Verizon Wireless customers that want full use of Motorola Phone tools software including the multimedia studio. That part is normally locked out on Verizon phones. The seem edits listed in the guide unlock all the features of MTP software for Verizon customers. Other than that either way will work. MPT has its own features for making ring tones from MP3s. It includes its own editor to cut any 30 second clip from any song to use as the ring tone and can be transfered right inside MPT. I guess its just a matter of choice.

I am confused now, do I have to have the MPT? I just want to have all the proper programs so I can cautiously proceed. Thanks for any replies.

Well it looks like you are doing most of your changes without MPT. If you are satisfied with how your system works then MPT isn't really necessary for you. The software retails for about $50. off the Motorola site. You can find it for less than $10. at the site I list below. It is also posted at different sites for free but thats Piracy so I won't link to those type of sites. Its all up to you. I like the way MPT works for me.

Okay, so the seems are basically to be able to use phone tools. Cool, well so far I don't miss it but who knows maybe I'll get there ;-).Right now I like audacity for making ringtones, a very nice, free program if anyone is looking for one. Thanks so much for your answer jerry!

The seem edits listed in that guide I posted are just a start of what can be done and those start by unlocking MPT usage. There are many other seem edits for stuff like getting on line, changing the startup/shutdown video clip, several original ring tones that are disabled--the list goes on. It all depends on how much you want to modify your phone. I just wanted to be able to transfer ringtones, songs and pictures by USB without paying Verizon for the usage of features the phone came with. Verizon locks it up so you will pay for everything. Again just my opinion.

OK I have the AMP'D Mobile version of the Motorazr v3m and I bought the MPT and I can get the mp3's to my phone but I don't have Get Tunes and Tones option and I don't have the option to save the mp3 files to ring tones. I texted the mp3 also and still can't assign it as a ringtone. Usually don't care about this kind of stuff, but I bought the phone and I should be able to do it so now it is imperitive I learn how. Thanx in advance for any step in the right direction.

I'm not real familiar with Ampd except I'm pretty sure its a pre-pay system. In some of those cases the features are not available because its pre-pay. I'll try and find more info for you but not sure if anything can be done. I would think the ringtone feature would still be active but just guessing for now. Does MPT connect by USB properly and show the Multimedia icon as available??

When I connect to the usb all the buttons are available. I can't do the phomebook but I don't care about that. I can transfer sound and pics. Pics so far I can use as wallpaper. But the sounds I can't get to the ringtones. Thanx for checking this out for me.

It may be the file format that you are using. Ringtones need to be in MP3 format. They also need loaded to the phone memory, not to a card if you have one installed. Just guessing and throwing out some possible suggestions. Songs loaded to the card need to be in WMA format.

Ok I downloaded a ringtone to see how it worked and the ringtone is in the same list as the mp3 I transfered to my phone. The only difference is there is a lock on the speaker icon and I have the option to set it as a ring tone.I guess it automatically goes to the phone memory and not the card. Hope I explained that correctly.

Sorry, correction. I don't have the option to set it as a ring tone. Slip of the fingers. The transfered mp3 that is. Thanx.

It took some searching but I found this post for you. I hope you know how to seem edit since this looks like the problem. This is from another forum. Many problems with Ampd service and hacks.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Being that you have Amp'd you don't need to do the MMS seem edit. The only people who do, if memory serves me are Sprint & VZW user being that Sprint & VZW have there own custom UI.
As for the "Apply as ringtone" check this seem edit on your amp'd phone to see if it is turned on or not
Seem 2742, record 1, bytes 0000
Offset 0075, bit 4 - off, Enables Apply as Ringtone
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hope this helps.
