My husband is switching from the Tour 9630 to the Bold 9930 (Sprint), and I notice that almost none of the ringtones are the same... Is there any way I can get the following in MP3s or something (in order to get the old ringtones on his phone)? He won't stop complaining. LOL! These are the ones he uses:
With the browser on your BB go to BlackBerry Wallpapers, Ringtones, and More and scroll down a bit and the one called something like OS5 ringtones for OS7 is right there. I downloaded/installed them this morning but I'm not quite sure on how to get them to show up on my phone and use them. Another project for tomorrow I suppose.
Go to Blackberry App World
Type in "Blackberry Sounds"
Select Blackberry 5.0 Sounds
Download (Its Free)
After the dowload is complete:
Select "Sound Profile" on your phone
Select "Change Sounds and Alerts"
Select "Phone Ring Tone"
Select "Ring Tone"
Scroll and select "All Alerts"
** All the classic Blackberry 5.0 sounds are there. **
Do you think I made a mistake getting it from Sprint instead of RIM?
Of course not
If it worked for you then I would never say it was a mistake. People have different ways of doing things and I just never thought to go through the sprint store. Saw a post here on cb about the app and stuck to that ever since I went os6+
No, I just was asking because you said the part about trusting RIM. I started thinking Sprint ... Carrier IQ ...
haha i thought carrier iq was built into the os and not just downloaded ringtones. maybe an app but i wouldnt think ringtones, unless sprint got hella sneaky. lol

Thank you very much!
One interesting thing. I have installed this first on my 9780 without any issue and it showed "installed" under App World in My World. With the 9900 it did install (you could select the ringer/notifier) but would not show as "installed". It was saying: "uninstalled" and you could select to: "reinstall". I have done that several times and it does show now after the reboot.
The OS 5 ringtones are the first thing I update after a new OS! I need to save that file somewhere so I dont have to keep d/l'ing it from Adam Zeis' old posting.
