Moto vu204 cellphone - cannot open or unlock ringtones

I downloaded them from verizon as sounds like it said to. Then I cannot open them or select them as a ringtone

  • ruiz046 Apr 28, 2009

    purchased ringtone form verizon online. they were sent to my phone. i cannot save them or set them as ringtones. i called customer service and was told this phone does not have the capability to use ringtones (only can set the ones that come with the phone... ) i found this odd as the website clearly sates you can buy ringtones/download them to this phone but guess not. this is bull.

To get FREE ringtones you need a Usb Cable for your phone and you need 2 software programs.

1. Motorola Update software
2. P2K Commander.

First run the MSU then the P2K. browse the directories and find your other ringtones and place what mp3s you want there.

Next you must delete a few files that determine what sounds you paid for and which you didn't. They are Mytone.DB and 2 others I dont recall atm. Once these are deleted you reboot your phone and those 3 files regenerate themselves but NOW THEY DO NOT KNOW WHICH FILES TO BLOCK. So now all your music you put on the phone can be set as a ringtone. Its a learning curve to do this just be patient and read up on it. GL

My VU204 is broken, I got a Verizon Cell phone from a relative. How can I transfer the sim card to this new phone?

Phone needs to be unlocked first from Verizon. Once it is unlocked you should then be able to put your SIM into the phone and the any numbers that are stored to your SIM should be in the Verizon phone.

I have a new vu204. Can I send E-Mail pictures from my PC to my cellphone?

Hi,

Download the pictures from your email box to PC. Using USB, connect the VU204 to PC. Install software if given by Motorola ( Usually they do give one ). Transfer the pics from your PC to cellphone.

Thanks.

I cant figure out how to download ringtones the my razor

You can download them straight from your phone, or from the internet.

The internet is probably a more preferable way to do it, because it doesn't cost any airtime to search for ring tones. (while when you do it on your cellphone the longer it takes you to find what your looking for the more money it costs you.)

To do it on the internet(I'm asuming you have verizon?) First go to
https://myaccount.verizonwireless.com/accessmanager/public/controller?action=displayRegistration
and register you phone.
Then you go here
http://ringtones.verizonwireless.com/rt/overview
and buy Ringtones!



Or to do it on your phone,
  1. Go to menu
  2. Go all the way to the left untill you see the "Get It Now" icon(It's An arrow)
  3. Select it and then select "Tunes and Tones"
  4. select "Get New Ringtones"
  5. If you already have downloading software skip to step 9
  6. select "Get New App"
  7. Find a downloading software
  8. Select it and let it download
  9. Select the app you want to use
  10. Search for a song then purchase it and let it download
  11. It should be in your ring tones list.
As you see the computer is much less complicated, but the cellphone is much more convenient, the choice is up to you.

I hope i was able to help you! Have a nice day! =D
