Pimp my phone (please?)

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

IIRC, a while back there were a few threads about ringtones 'n' stuff, but when I searched (see, not being lazy!) they were all for nokia & other phones what I don't have.
Long story short, I've been given a motorola e365 & as much as I love it to bits, I can't find a nice (free - I'm not mental!) ringtone for it. These things matter y'know!
It's also got a dancing worm as the screensaver. :|

Hi d00m.
IIRC, with this phone you need to punch in the notes for the ringtone right?
You can (if you provider has the service) connect to the web with the phone's browser & download tones, but my guess is that they will mostly be a pile of dog's eggs.
Another option is to find someone else with "good" tones on theirs & send them in a SMS/MMS. You should be able to save them in the phone & use them.
Lastly, I think there is a data cable to connect to a pc right? then pull the tones of the web & squirt them through the cable to the phone.
Personally, I would chuck it in the bin & get something that gave you a bit more flexibility.
That being said, I can't bear the stupid rigtones people have installed. All those silly songs or demeted frogs. :evil:
My phone makes a smashing glasss sound right now & when it is ringing, it makes peole duck for cover, as they think the place is under attack :twisted:
Cheers.

Hear, hear!

All those songs they play that sound like a goat peeing into a tin due to the tiny speakers, Only some "Scrshshsh"-kind of noise..
The only good one I heard was the intro of Zimmer´s Hole´s "Bread".
That sounded really groovy. ;D
