i use mobile17 to make ringtones and then i use my card reader to put it on my phone. as a sound the file sounds perfect but after i send it to myself and open it the ringtone sounds distorted...as if it was made 5x louder but on lower volume it still sounds distorted. is there a problem with the phone or just the software
...
I think it's the file. I've made many ringtones from the website & they all came in loud & clear. But, for some reason in the past week the ones that I sent to my phone all sound distorted. I thought it was my phone so I went & got it exchanged but the sound isn't any better. Hope this helps ๐
...
what excuse did you use? did you just show them that the sound was bad?
...
I told them that the sound when I received a msg or so, sounded distorted. I had sent a few of them. I honestly thought it was the phone at first. But, when my friend tried to send it to the replacement phone I received the sound wasn't any better. I had made many ringtones from the site before & never had this issue until this past week. They've all come in clear.
...
same with me. even though its not a problem i keep having trouble with enVs. i think i might switch to the u740. any opinions?
...
I was just trying to figure it out too. I have over 300 ringtones and none of them sound like this. I just tried making a new one and it sounds fine. then when i send it it sounds like i recorded it with the voice recorder. What the heck is going on. I thought it was my settings on wavepad. if anyone figures it out please let us know. .

There's no problem w/ the phone. I figured it only sounds distorted when you send it to your phone. A friend of mine had the same problem. I've exchanged my phone twice & the same thing occurs.

โน๏ธ Sorry to say but there is nothing wrong with any of your phones they are all working properly the problem is verizon and their lockdown of all their services. The thing is i think you are limited to sending yourself up to 5 mp3 ringtones which sound nice and clear and once you keep sending yourself more verizon actually automatically converts your files to Qcelp or also known as .qcp which is a highly compressed audio file developed by qualcomm and it sounds like crap because it is highly compressed it is made with the program called Purevoice but i wouldnt recommend making this format for ringtones but unfotunetly you are stuck buying from get it now which what verizon wants you to do if you want good quality ringtones โน๏ธ but anyone kno...

Bypass Verizon's interference with your ringtones by NOT sending them over the airwaves, and simply use BitPim to load your ringers. ๐

I understand i was trying to use bitpim but unfortunetly i have the Software update on the phone to version 2 that blocks bitpim out. Bitpim needs to come up with an update that unlocks that feature so i can use it again. Anything verizon gets their hands on is locked for their benefit. thats the way it is the most reliable network but the one that screws their customers out of their pockets in every aspect.

im now on my 5th enV.....i tried sending my sounds to myself to make them ringtones but only 4 of them were good out of about 20....yes i know thats alot of ringtones....but i asign them so i know whos calling. but anyway...it wasnt the first couple that i sent that were ok. i sent them all in random order and some were ok and most were distorted. does anyone know how to get around this?
...
I got it. Change the mp3 to mid.

which program do you use to convert the mp3 to midi. because i was trying that and it was more of a pain to get into doing it because of my software i was using so which software would you use??
...
You don't use a conversion Program at all. ๐คจ
Simply use your Windows File Explorer (My Computer) to change the extension on the file from ".mp3" to ".mid" that's all. ๐
