      Drag the song into the PC Studio into the ringtone section then go there on your phone and sent it as your ringtone.

      Pretty simple

But have been trying to turn of the sounds on my keypads and am having great difficulty. Can anyone help the book says click options go to keypads and turn off but there is not a button to turn off. Please help

              To convert AVI to MPEG4 etc. you can download a little program at the follow address: http://www.download.com/Front-End-Convert-Drop/3000-2170_4-10452586.html?tag=lst-0-2
              There is also one for MAC on the same site(under the same name).
              And yes this phone does have "TV", but only "tv" programs available from your 3g service provider(like 30 sec. "24" episodes) at a monthly rate. (You can't tune in and watch your favourite soapy like a normal tv.)

                                i've juz bought this phone recently and these r my comments:
                                pros: superb audio quality, good camera, expandable memory, lightweight
                                cons: kinda low ringing volume, battery life

                                Overall, dis phone still rox! so dun hesitate to buy it coz it has almost everyth u need.

                                  unless you use 3G on your handset, turning it off will improve your battery life upto 69%. find it in connectivity settings under network settings and then network mode, finally select GSM900/1800. 3G should now be off thus improving your battery life, just turn it back on when you need it.

                                    Even though the battery life isn't the best, it lasts till I get home and it charges a lot quicker than most phones

                                      I bought this phone two weks ago, so far so good. The battery life is on the short side but it is a 3G phone and that has to be expected. The camera is good but a light function would be helpful - then again look at the d600, nice phone but no 3G!

                                      I got mine 4 £200 on O2 pay as you go with £20 credit, so allin all its a nice investment - nice design and function about the phone - Samsung undoubtedly lead the way - Nokia move over...
