ok yeah im a nub i know some but after opening those to programs this:Quote:if you want to create and add your own mp3 ringtones to the New Verizon Razr V3m to your phone here is the steps and the programs used to do it.
Motorola PST and P2k Commander V 3.3.0
Go ahead and open up PST then P2k Commander allow it to switch the phone to P2k Mode Once that is done.
Hopefully you have used P2k Commander Prior to this.
Now the fun will begin go ahead and copy all the mp3's you want to have as ringtones. You will have to copy them into the Motorola | Shared | Audio folder of the phone.
After you have copied all them over to the phone you will need to delete two files from the phone.
Find and delete TmpTneDB.db and MyToneDB.db
Now unconnect the phone and restart it. After this is done you will now beable to set those Mp3's as ringtones if you want to add more just redo the steps above.
I hope this helps
is not step by step enough.......

You have to make the ring tone using audiocity or a ringtone maker So
1.) Open up PST
2.) Open Auto Deamon in P2k
3.) Allow it to connect to P2k MODE. You might have to unplug the phone from the computer then plug it back in to allow it to connect to this mode.
4.) on the right side in the drop down box put it on P2K Mobile Phone
that will then read the phone contents.
now you will see a few folders and some files
then double click on the phone motorola then shared then audio
now find where you put the ringtone on the left side. After you have
found the ring tone select it by clicking once on the file now click
the copy button this will in return copy it to the phone.
Now what you need to do is click on the .. to return back to where
you see the motorola folder now scroll down until you see the two
files. File Names are TmpTneDB.db and MyToneDB.db. Now what you want
to do is click once and highlight the files now click on the delete
button and this will then delete the file from the phone. Repeat this
set for the other file. After you have done this then you want to
unconnect your phone from the computer then restart it.
I hope this helps alittle better.

First of all those of you who have cingular are lucky. I bought a cable and software for $20 and had as many ringtones as I wanted. Then cingular kicked me off and now I have a Verizon v3m. I still have the data cable and have been looking everywhere for ways to get ringtones on it. I don't have the miniSD card but I do still have my data cable. I can get songs onto my phone but it won't use them as ringtones. Most of the solutions you've had to buy software to get ringtones on the phone. Does anyone know of a solution that wouldn't cost anything? Any help would be appreciated.

i bit easier way to make a ringtone out of your mp3's is to convert the mp3 to wav using any kind of audio converter(google them). assuming u have windows xp, go to start menue, all programs, accessories, entertainment, and then to sound recorder. open the folder with the converted music. edit a 30 sec. clip (can be larger if u have transflash card). then "save as" go to format under the file name, save as type. and change it to mpeg layer-3 56kBit/s, 24,00. also type the name u wish to save it as and make sure u save it as a .midi file. open ur email, if u have verizon, send the file to ur phone which will be your mobile number with @vzwpix.com and there ya go. open the txt messege and save sound. open ur phone tune's and tones, scroll down the list till u find your song and set as ringtone. this will work with any music.......

Thanks to all for the wonderful information on getting ringtones to a V3m phone. My sister has this phone and we've been trying to get around Verizon's choke on it for sounds and images. Working with my sister certainly has made me appreciate my Cingular service much more.
Anyway, to my question. Would anyone tell me if we are supposed to use the same steps to transfer images to her V3m using the Transflash card or do something different?
Thanks in advance.

So, I've successfully up/down loaded custom ringtones to my RAZR V3M. The issue is that although the ringtone length is 20 seconds, I only hear the first 5-6 seconds which is repeated throughout the cell phone ringing process. Is there anyway to hear the entire 20 second ringtone?

Have you checked the call divert settings? Sometimes you can chage your divert settings from 5 seconds to 30 seconds. (Eg. Divert if busy, unavailable etc...)

Just curious, with your new MP3 ringtones, do they play all the way through or cycle through the first 5 seconds? I made several custom ringtones using Audacity. I uploaded them using PST and P2K. I was able to assign ringtones to certain numbers, but when the phone rings from one of these numbers, I don't hear the full 20 second ringtone that I made. I plays the first 5 seconds and then repeats. Any thoughts?

I like a lot of others here have been able to use the Transflash card to upload mp3's to the v3m phone but have been unable to assign them as ringtones.
Upon further reading, I found Razrv3m's post about converting the mp3 to a wav and then to a midi. It finally dawned on me that although you can play an mp3 on your v3m, in order to assign it at a ringtone it has to be in midi format.
I was somewhat successful following Razrv3m's directions but I did have a problem converting to a midi and I'm hoping Razrv3m will be kind enough to help me out.
I was able to follow the instructions all the way up to "make sure u save it as a .midi file". For some reason, the Sound Recorder program in Accessories won't save a file as anything but a .wav. The drop down under "Save as type" only has two options--.wav or All Files.
In order to continue my testing, I had to go out and download a Wav to Midi converter. The trouble is, the program costs over $120.
So I need a little help with the Windows Sound Recorder or for someone to point me to a Wav to Midi converter that is either free or at least reasonably priced. Thanks to all here for all the help.

HELP!!! I followed all the listed steps and was able to get the tones on my phone. The problem I'm having is that I am unable to assign the tone to a contact. Even if i just save the voice recording to the sd card I still am unable to even assign that to a contact. I have the same problem with pictures. I am able to view the media on the card but the set as option doesnt show when its saved to the card. Any ideas would be stellar.

Thanks paintball.
Mods can you delete the previous msg of mine? Thanks, sorry.
When I rename my mp3s into pcq files when i get them back on the phone, in the Gets Tunes & Tones menu I can't set them as ringtones. There is just 2 options now to do something i don't remember and the other is to move the location of the file.
But when you go into your individual contacts you can set it up as the ringtone.
But has anyone figured out how to set it as the ringtone for all calls?
Thanks.

The best way to make ringtones for the Verizon v3m razr is to cancel your contract with Verizon and pay the early cancellation fee. Then buy service with any other cell provider and have free, unlimited ability to make ringtones.
Verizon is a greedy, evil company and should be boycotted. I hope they die a slow, miserable death!!

I agree 100+% wbiscuit. Only I hope Verizon's death is speedy because I just hate to know other people are getting sucked in by them.
I was finally able to get the Grey's Anatomy ringtone that I made for my sister onto her Verizon razr thanks to razrv3m's instructions. Once I finished converting the .wav file, I manually changed the file extension to .mid
Unfortunately, the file had to be emailed to her phone (which incurred a charge from Veria**) instead of using the transflash card. When I tried to use the transflash card, I was able to move the file to the phone. Once on the phone though the only options for the file was to move it or change the name. It still wouldn't let me assign it as a ringtone.
However, I didn't try the earlier instructions about recording a sound file and replacing it. I might try that the next time I see my sister and see if that works. I just so want to get this to work so Verizon won't get any more of my sister's hard earned money than possible.
Thanks for all the help, people! The people on Afterdawn forum are fantastic!

hope my info helped! to transfer photo's from phone to computer is easy, more of a pita then ne thing. b/c u have to take the transflash card out of the phone, use a card reader, and plug into ur printer, or computer. then just open as folder type, then copy and past where u want it. too bad it wouldn't work that way with the mp3's. however, there is another way to transfer the images, prolly the best site i've found about the razr is hacktherazr.com
hope this helps
