Custom Ringtones (LG enV2, Verizon)

Jan 24, 2009 13:24

I love the enV2 already. I had had the phone for maybe 10 hours before I had uploaded my first custom ringtones. It's actually very easy once the sound clips are ringtone-ready, but the ones that aren't require some software. Luckily, I have free software that does everything I need ( Read more... )

Thanks for this! I used Audacity to trim the MP3, followed your directions and it worked perfectly.

Great tip. Thank you. anonymous February 22 2009, 07:18:59 UTC

Thanks for this very useful information. Worked perfectly for me.

If you include sound does it charge you data or just picture messaging? I have the unlimited text/picture/etc plan, but I don't have data on my phone, and I don't want to attach a 500kb file if it's going to charge me for it, you know?

If you send it as a picture message, it only charges you whatever the rate is for your picture messages on your phone. This is why there is a 500 KB limit -- that's the limit for picture messages. (The 30 second limit is only an estimate... most of my ringtones cut off after about 20 seconds.)

mine didn't work "invalid destination address"

That's odd... That has never happened to me. What step of the process were you at when it gave that error?

Awesome tutorial! anonymous June 25 2009, 04:20:15 UTC

I have the Env2... once I figured out how to actually get music on my microSD, I knew there HAD to be a way to set a real mp3 as a ringtone. I knew how to record a song playing on my computer and send it to myself... but there was too much interference and white noise.
I'm using Ubuntu Linux, but I was able to get Audacity (which was still buggy on Linux) and edited an mp3 to 30 seconds. Using the card reader on my dad's laptop, it worked seamlessly!
Thanks a lot for this tutorial, ninjamonkeyspy. I would never buy a ringtone... if I have the music already, why buy a small clip of it when I can do it myself?
