You'll be lucky if someone doesn't tell you where to put them! ;-)

You could try reading your instruction book. I haven't a clue myself; I
don't feel any need for a personalized ringtone.

BTW, I make mine (cell phone ring) sound like an old-fashioned
telephone. No one seems to do that, so it's unique.

If you don't have Motorola Phone Tools, take your micro sd card out and put
it in your computer. On the sd card you should find four folders, audio,
pictures, video and ringtones. Drag and drop your file into the ringtones
folder. Put the card back in your phone and look for your file. You may
have to switch from the phone memory to the card, if you do, locate your
file and move it to the phone memory. It should be with the rest of your
rings.

Thanks all for your replies.

Richard: your note was a little harsh and had no useful content. I fail to
see the need to be hateful.

Gary: I too have thought about having the old ATT sound. Where'd you get
yours?

Bill: I have disabled TEXT'ing on my phones. Just don't need that service
at all.

el KaBong: Thank you for a very detailed and most helpful posting. Now if
I can find the adapter that lets me get at the phone card...

Regards, ted

I made my own ringtones, snipping the sound that I wanted out of an mp3
file using itunes, and then transferring them to Nokia and Motorola phones
as a bluetooth file download.

Your phone rings for about 21 seconds before voicemail, so you don't need
mp3 files any larger

iTunes, Edit, Preferences, Importing, Import Settings mp3 128kbps.

Play the song you want, and locate the part you want to be the ringtone
(IE: 00:30.00 to 00:51.00) and then Command-I to get info on the song.

Under the Options tab in the Get Info menu, check both start and stop time
and enter the start and stop times for the ringtone section (i.e. Start
time 00:30.00 End Time 00:51.00).

You may want to play it once to make sure it's well cropped.
Select the song in your library and go to
Advanced -> Convert Selection to MP3.

It will convert ONLY the portion of the song that you selected to a new,
cropped MP3 file. I renamed mine to the same title - ringtone.
Right click, "Show in Windows Explorer".

Drag that the the "Music Files" folder on the phone.

I have the Motorola Phone Tools program for my Motorola, but I think you
can right click and "send to bluetooth" if your V3xx is set up properly.

Once it is in the Music Folder, you can browse to that folder on the
phone, and select the file as a ringtone.

Bill,
*WOW* ! ! !
So simple.
I have tried for hours to find the solution,
and all I needed to do was look in the right place.

Does a Motorola Razr v3 have a "micro sd card" ? This is not the same as
the SIM card is it?

Negative. The V3 has no removable storage medium.

I can't speak for ALL RAZR V3 models but my RAZR V3m will take a 2GB
Micro SD memory card. I don't know that I need it for anything but if I
ever need to shoot a "feature length movie", I'll have the space to
store it.


It's not terribly expensive so, if you think you will have a use for it,
go ahead.
