I want a song as a message tone

you just have to go to profile menu then choose any options and go to message alert tone(but i think not all phones have this options)and choose what would be the song that you wanted to set as a message alert tone...click the song and press ok then test it

If you want to change the Tones of the Incoming Messages:

Go to Menu--Settings--Phone Profiles--Click the Arrow next to the profile you have already been using--on the top You will see an arrow facing download (a drop down menu button)--click--select New Messages--on clicking the Message Alert Tone box you will see loads of tones that you would want to select--in case if you want any song or tone that you have on you mobile to be your default message alert--select "sounds" at the bottom--select the "arrow" on the top go to the directory where you have the tones..select it and "Add" and then click "Save"

Hope it helped...Let me know if there's any problem...

Go to Menu - settings - sound profile - choose normal

Choose message alert type - then choose the desired message alert type then SAVE.

You cannot use a Mp3 as a message alert tone though..

By alert you mean the Tones of the Incoming Messages:

Go to Menu--Settings--Phone Profiles--Click the Arrow next to the profile you have already been using--on the top You will see an arrow facing download (a drop down menu button)--click--select New Messages--on clicking the Message Alert Tone box you will see loads of tones that you would want to select--in case if you want any song or tone that you have on you mobile to be your default message alert--select "sounds" at the bottom--select the "arrow" on the top go to the directory where you have the tones..select it and "Add" and then click "Save"

hi thanks for using fixya!

You may check in to your phone the tone settings, and you may adjust the volume and even select the type of ringtones or alert tones.

If you need further assistance, please let me know.

If you have version 3 software there is no way that you can use mp3 or downloaded tones as message tones, best thing you can do is upgrade your firmware to version 4. Type this on the dial screen to check your version *#8375#

Hi,
That phone only allows the default tones to be used as message alert tones. Other mp3 songs or tones cannot be used as message alerts.

go to settings, then choose phone settings. In phone settings go to phone profiles, normal is highlighted click options, then edit, then ok. Click the right arrow then go to message alert tone, click on options then change and ok. Go to use my alert tone choose your tone go to options and click down and select then ok. Then job done.

it's because the sync can only use mp3s for an actuall ringtone..for anything else it's .mmfs. i know what you're thinkin...riiipofffff.
