thanks to hatchet - i posted b4 confusd of how2 get mp3 as ringtone but its de simple. ok, for jay ill explain step by step. press start, press 0 (more), press 0 (more), go to tools, go to file manager, go to my items, go to my sounds, highlight your song then click left to check it, press left soft key (edit), go to cut, press back twice, highlight the two dots (title above is HDD), the press left soft key (edit), press paste. this will take a few seconds. then click home button, start, settings, sounds, scroll through available ring tones and it will be there. ps. you can set shortcuts to save time - my file manager is shortcutted under 5 for example.
on another note, anyone having trouble with the i300 freezing wen u turn it on, mine said alert not enough space then just froze, wel theres a simple solution to this so u dont need to return it. first of all perform a hard reset - turn off, take out and replace battery, then hold on button with 0, the phone will ask for a passkey and it is 1234 by default. after a few minutes it will reset but you will have lost all information, this is annoying for contacts, messages, etc, but to add all music agaen is very quick as it is not rely deleted just ready to be overwritten, if you understand. and to prevent this happening agen, ensure all applications/tasks are ended before turning off - this is essential. to do this press start, more, more, tools, task manager (like before i set a shortcut for this as u need to access it regularly). in task manager press menu, stop all. after all have been stopped your phone can be turned off and it shouldnt freeze. note - even when not turning off, applications should be stopped regularly to speed up the phone and to prevent it freezing.
hope this has helped

it is a excellent phone and the features are very good. However they have stopped selling this phone at O2. Battery life was appalling compared to the D500 and D600!!!!!!!!
Maybe these problems will go with the I310!!!!!!

Great phone until i had a problem yesterday when turning it back on and it stated that 'no home screen installed' and then stated didnt have enough memory, please delete data but wouldnt let me do anything. Took my phone back and they exchanged it with no problem.

Glad to see the back of this now. Don't get me wrong, it has some good features, but a lot of them have inherent problems which cannot be worked around. The lack of useable voice dialing was my main gripe, but the distortion of voices through the phone (better via bluetooth, though bassy), was also poor. The 3gb drive is cool, but it's not for me....I found what I need in the O2 Exec...that has features beyond belief for a smartphone. Good luc with the i300 if yo should choose it...I'm sure it will suit a lot of people out there. And hey, if we all liked the same phone, there'd only be one brand and one model...right?

umm what can i say about this phone , its sounds great , with its 3gbhard drive , but what happens if it fails, well you not got much of a phone , and guess what , it did. as for replacing it , NO. dont like the phone , i had my one for just over a month and will be happy when it go,s. back to my old s700i , lease that works ,and its got photo to number and loads of software for it. think carefully before you get one , software to download not much about as the same for games .Might have a lookat the benQ siemens when it comes out in march.
