Anyone know how I can add custom made ring tones to my cell phone? I found a website that'll make an actual clip, but I have no idea how to transfer it to my phone. :I

if you have bluetooth capability on your computer and phone, you should be able to save it to the computer and send it over to the phone.
landon's done it with some of his friend's phones...whenever he wanders along this way, he can probably tell you what to do.

Most of the time those sites will give you an option to transfer it right to your phone by giving them your phone number. Otherwise I'm not sure how to do it.

There are a few ways Johnny. A computer with bluetooth capability if your phone is capable is the easiest. However, some phones have restrictions on them. Such as, you can put an mp3 or other type of sound file on the phone to listen to, but not use as a ringtone. It's the cell carrier that often decides this, so they can make money off of people having to purchase ringtones through them. However, all this means is that you need an mp3 to have DRM on it. So there are actual programs you can download to add drm to your sound file and then it will function as a ringtone.
If you don't have bluetooth, a USB connection cable to hook up to the computer should do the same thing.

Your phone uses an micro sd card. you can put ringtones on that and then put your card in the phone. it also came with a usb connector, so dont bother with bluetooth. if your computer doesnt have its unnecessary.
