Using Downloaded Ringtones

The Ringtones can not be used from the MicroSD card....... 

This issue has been covered here quite a few times in depth and many threads, but I have a few minutes so I'll toss some pointers your way...  You may want to read through some of our threads here as there loaded with all kinds of very useful information you can use..........

Below is a list of the folders created by the Rouge and their uses....

my_contacts  .... Your contacts can be backed up here (as .vcf files) Outlook Use
my_files         .... .txt, .doc, .docx, .xls, .pdf files can be placed here and read with the phones file reader.
my_flix          .... Place video files here
my_music      .... Place your .mp3 music files here.. no sub folders
my_pix          .... Place pictures and wallpapers here
my_ringtones .... You CAN NOT put ringtones here.. Phone will NEVER use or see them
my_sounds    .... You CAN NOT put sound files here.. Phone will NEVER use or see them

The best way to get Ringtones onto your Rogue is to go to your favorite email address and send them to your self as an email with an attachment  ...> address it to... younumber@vzwpix.com  (include area code)

Ringtones sent in this manner should be kept to 30 seconds or under in length ...  you can send (3) Ringtones at a time using method.   Once received by the phone.. while the 'Tone is playing Tap options... You can save as a Ringtone or as a Sound.. I usually save them both ways.  As if you ever want to share the 'Tone with a friend, you can send a picture message to your friend and attach a 'sound' to it right from your phone...  They in turn can save it as a Ringtone......

If you need further assistance help.. please feel free to ask...........................

The "lockdown" on the my_ringtones & my_sounds folders is more then likely a Verizon request or stipulation to Samsung...    Verizon wants to make every cent is can off us...  If its too easy for users to put Ringtones on our phones, they figure we wont  "BUY" Ringtones from them @ .99 cents a pop.... They figured incorrectly  

If forgot to post the link to the website. Just as a heads-up, it is loaded with advertisements so get ready for an eye full! [url]http://media-convert.com/[url]

I was talking about the Rogue not having the ability to use mp3s as a ringtone when you place them in the ringtone folder on your sd card. Sorry, I mis-spoke. When I placed a mp3 in the folder, it didn't show up on my phone...but when I placed a qcp ring-tone in the folder...it did and I was able to use it. Feel free to send a link to the forum that contains the information on how to use a mp3 as a ringtone with out going through that pain in the butt process of e-mailing it to yourself that you mentioned before or the painful process of converting as I have had to do.

  This User / Member is 100% Correct....

I just converted an .mp3 Ringtone into this .qcp format, Placed it on the MicroSD Card and the phone picked it right up.. Went to 'my ringtones' on the phone and it was at the top of my list..   Though when I played it.. it sounded horrid... going to look into a better converter........

Update : The two Converters I have used so far 'QCP Converter' and 'RingTone Gold'.. both convert to this format and both 'tones sounded 'Horrid' after conversion.... Tried different bit rates... volume / intensity setting.. still yuko!!
 
My question to you AnathemaAnimus,  Do the 'Tone's you've converted to .qcp format sound 'Horrid' Real flat, no tonal quality at all and lower then normal volume even when enhanced?

What did you use to Convert??? I went to Sony Sound Forge first and it wont save in that .qcp format...
I know there are a ton of others...... 

Try Audacity. You can change all the settings in the tones to make them louder or quieter. Just make sure you also install Lame or you won't be able to export the tones and use them.

As for a converter, I use AVS when needed, though I tend to not convert and just use MP3.

Hmmmm...   .qcp files run really small.... my last mp3 (778l to qcp  57k

Not sure why yours didnt work.. I am still NOT going to use the .qcp files though...  tried a verity of conversion programs now, with a multitude of different settings...  ALL Horrid quality ..........

Sticking w/ the .mp3's.....
