Treo 650 Ringtones?
|
|
|
| What the best way/place to get ringtones for the Treo 650? Looking for
variety (would like some college fight songs in addition to tunes).
Availability & simplicity is more important than price.
Thanks... Fred

| I suggest you first obtain 'RINGO". This is a program for the TREO 650 that
allows you to use any MP3 as a ring tone. After getting this program, I
think you know the rest.

Doesn't Ringo require the use of a third-party player (PTunes, etc)?
Phone Technician does not, or is uses the Real Player included in the
Treo 650.

| I never claim to be an expert but since I have been using Ringo, I have not
seen any indication that it is using a third party software. I thought (I
very well could be wrong) that Ringo was a stand alone software. I know that
my TREO 650 came with Realplayer installed. If Ringo uses Realplayer in the
background, I was not aware of it.

| Does Ringo allow you to use different tones for different callers? Phone
Technician says it won't do that.

| Ringo allows you to assign different ringtones to different calling numbers.
It also allows you to add a picture to the calling number.
Now sounding like John Navas "Google is your friend"
I just did a quick search for "ringo for treo" and the first hit on the list
lead to this link. Basic description with some screen shots.

| I was just looking at Ringo on my TREO and remembered one thing I did not
like about it. Ringo does not use your internal directory. When you assign a
ringtone you must enter a name and number. It would be so much easier if you
could go through you internal directory and assign ringtones.

There is a program that is called LightWav that does this.

Do you have any other MP3 player installed?

The Treo 650 contacts list allows you to do that second one natively.

| I tries Ringo & it seemed to work okay with one exception. I used my own
mp3 as a tone & when the phone rings Rino only plays 2 or 3 seconds of the
sound & loops repeatedly. Is there a setting to adjust this?

| Realplayer came pre-installed but the answer to your question is no. I have
not installed any other MP3 players and I am not aware of any pre-installed
programs
