    So, a friend of mine got a Pearl 8130 and didn't like it, so he sold it to me at a great deal. I've had it for about a day, and learning the ins and outs are giving me a headache! Luckily, my sweetie has the BB Storm, so he's "in the know" with BB's. Just wanted to say, though, that so far, I'm loving the phone. Texting on it takes some getting used to, but I'm sure after a few days, I'll be a texting machine on this thing. Just saying "hello" to everyone, and this site SOOO ROCKS!!

    Welcome! Pearl is a cool device but you have to watch the memory on it or it slows down and / or starts deleting stuff. I recommend reading up on the Crackberry 101 stuff (check out the "newbies" section), and definitely do a search for "memory optimization procedure".

    Go to Profiles -> Advanced -> Profile you want to change

    Once there, you can change ringtones and whatnot for everything.
