about adding ringtones

**don1956** · 05-29-2012, 07:11 AM

I have a G'zOne Commando. Do I have to root it to add ringtones that I have downloaded. And also when I receive a text with an attachment the phone automatically removes it. Hoe can I stop this?

No... make sure you have a folder on the sd card (external storage) named "ringtones" and place all of the mp3 ringtone files in there. You can do this from your computer with the phone connected by the USB cable or download a file manager app like "astro file manager" from the Play Store and move the files/ringtones that way.

After installing the C771 drivers I now have my phone recognized. I there a "how to" somewhere on the site. I was unable to locate one for ringtones

Here (use Mass Storage option):

Another option:
You can also just email them to your phone from your computer

Example:

Save the attached ringtone..... default saves to the download folder on the SD card.

Then go to the "music" icon and it will show up on the list. Press and hold the ringtone name and that brings up a menu which allows you to save the 'song' as a ringtone.

Thanks for the info. but I have already read the thread, and I know how to change to the connection to mass storage. Plus the problem I have with sending the tone email or texts is that the phone removes the attachments.
so my ignorance continues
