I've seen it said on the forums that to get a custom ringtone on your Sprint cellphone, you send yourself a PM (picture message) and attach an audio file. But on the Lotus, I find there is no option to make such an attachment. If I select an MP3, it is denied and the error is that a JPG or GIF file is required.
I have sent an e-mail to my Lotus phone with an MP3 attachment and I can play it, but there is no means to save it. I don't understand!
However, if I go to a website that specializes in sending a text message with an attachment, like pcs.cruz-network.net, it works. I receive a text message with an MP3 attachment and I can save it. OK, so it works... but the process is painfully slow. I want to load several dozen files... is there an easier way to do this??

One other thing--if I browse my SD card and opt to "SEND" an MP3 file I've highlighted, the options are BlueTooth or E-mail. Again, the e-mail will result in an attachment I can listen to but not save onto the phone. Bluetooth obviously is external to the device... the target is the phone internal memory!

I don't know of any other way to get custom ringtones to your Lotus other than to purchase them.

Really? Because you can... by going to a website that allows you to send a text message with an attachment... and if that attachment is an MP3 you can save it as a ringtone on the phone.
However, if you send yourself an e-mail, the only thing the phone will allow you to do is save it on your SD card, in the "music" folder.

I understand the point you are making. However, if it isn't supported by LG then I cannot guarantee the files. And if you can't do this using traditional methods then I can only assume they've implemented some sort of "work around".

Saw this on another topic in the forum. Maybe it will help you. But please keep in mind my warning from earlier. http://www.lgcommunity.com/Default.as...

Actually, I had an error in my previous statement. You do not receive an attachment with a text message. It is a link back to the sending source to download the attachment. With e-mail, I believe it is a physical attachment that is included, but you can't save it to the phone.
