Hello!

I am somewhat new to the crackberry nation and I wanted some ringtone advice. I want something other than the standard ring but I don't want one that actually plays the song. I think what I am looking for used to be called polyphonic ringtones but I am not sure. As far as I can see Verizon, my carrier, doesn't allow a blackberry device to download ringtones to the device. A google search left me with thousands of website options and that got frustrating.

Any suggestions.

try funformobile.com and phonezoo.com ... you really dont want a polyphonic tone right??? (polyphonic reminds me of a kid's toy phone) if you dont want a song (with lyrics) go for something classical...
I'm sure you'll find something you love!

if you are comfortable with audio files enough on your computer, you can download free utils to cut snipbits of songs you like and use those as tones. i understand verizon doesn't allow for it, but i believe there is a way to trick verizon servers into allowing it

once you've got your tone, you have to slowly kick down the quality (bitrate) below 1 meg i believe. once that's done, save it and then rename it as anyfilename.mid and email it to your phone in the following format
