Question Posted Saturday December 29 2007, 12:30 am
i got the pantech duo phone for christmas, and i love it. but one thing i can't figure out is how to make the mp3's i uploaded to the phone a ringtone. when i go to select a ringtone for certain things, the list doesn't include the mp3's. and when i play the mp3 & go to the menu, it doesn't have the option like "set as.." or anything. any help?
okay but you still won't be able to see it because this phone is picky about ringtones but you can fix this by following the registry hack below:
ok, so after some playing around with the regisrtry of this phone I found a hack that you can use to sole this problem, of course you are going to have to find a registry editor for a windows mobile phone.
ok open a mobile registry editor, open HKEY_CURRENT_USER
open CONTROLPANEL
click on Sounds
change the file size limit to 999999999
and change Ringtones mulitstring just to Ring-WindowsMobile.wma (delete all other ringtones listed)
open Sounds and click on RingTone0
change savedsound to My DocumentsMy Ringtones*the song you want.mp3*
with out the *s
make shure that song is in your rintone folder
change Sound to the same thing as savedsound
restart your phone, and you should be good, all the songs in your ringtone folder should now show up in settings>sounds>Ring tone:
hurray now you are done, please do not take credit for this hack, give credit where credit is due
