Hi!

Do you know how can I take my contacts out of this phone.
I’ve used the “Samsung PC Studio”, “Data Pilot”, BitPin”, Drivers installed and everything but any of those softwares connect to this phone.

Thanks any help!

You need to use the included software CD to convert the wma’s to thier own mp4a format that will then play on the phone.

@vivian

I would suggest asking LG’s support, or going to your Cellphone provider and asking them about headphones or adapters for headphones… This discussion is about the Samsung m620 cellphone, not the LG Rumor.

The Rumor does support bluetooth wireless technology so you could look into some wireless, stereo headphones (brands inlcude Logitech, Motorola, Insignia (bestbuy brand), and probably some other brands out there too.) Hope this helps :D

Priti,
“u cant set these ringtones as other like alarms or voicemail or text message ringers? u can only do it for voicecalls?”

Unfortunately, you’re right. This ringtone work-around only works for voice calls. If you wanted a ringtone for any of the other ringer types, you’d either have to buy them, or use the other method which requires you to have access to the internet using your phone. You’d have to download ringtones to your phone and there are a few websites out there that do it for free, and others that charge you for each ringtone.

” and…also..the ringers work but it has the white box wit the X on it…i cant tell wut ringer it is”

Because the ringtone is a video file, the phone looks for an “image” to use as the thumbnail. But because we never had video in the ringtone to begin with, it wont be able to find an image to use. Thus it shows up as a red X on a while box. When you’re choosing the ringtone, just go through them and listen to each one till you find the one you want (yeah, it sucks :D). When you’re looking at them, the highlighted one will have options, one of which is “play” which lets you listen to the file.
The only other thing you could do, if you’re savvy in the audio and video stuff, is give the file a video image so you can tell what it is.

Umm.. regarding the ringtones for specific people, my phone allows me to do it.
Go to Contacts > find > choose the person you want to have a custom tone to > choose to edit them > go down to “default ringer” and select that > go to option 6 (off the main screen) > and then choose memory card > and find the tone you want.

@ Priti,

You have 2 options for doing this:
Option 1: Connect the Memory Card to the Computer using a card reader (Easiest way, Recommended)
Requires either a computer with an SD Card reader slot, or a USB – SD Card adapter, as well as the Micro SD – SD card adapter)
1 – Remove the Micro SD card from your phone and either put it into the adapter to make it fit an SD card slot, or put it into a Micro SD card – USB adapter.
2 – Plug in the card to the computer (either an adapter to a USB port, or the SD card into a slot on your computer)
3 – Your computer should see the new card as a removable drive in My Computer.
4 – Browse the card from My Computer and then drag and drop the “ringtone” into DCIM > 100SSMED (if that folder doesn’t exist, take some pictures on your phone first.)
5 – When finished, eject the card from your computer, remove it from your computer, put the card back into your phone, and the continue with the rest of the steps posted above.
.
(Sorry if the above instructions are a little confusing. Message again if you need clarifications.)
.
Option 2: Connecting the Phone directly the the Computer using the USB cable (may be included)
1 – Connect the phone end of the cable into your phone and then plug the USB end into the computer
2 – On your phone, choose Menu > Tools > Mass Storage > Connect to PC
3 – Your computer SHOULD recognize your phone as a “mass storage device” just like if you were to plug in a USB drive to it.
4 – Browse the phone from My Computer and then drag and drop the “ringtone” into DCIM > 100SSMED (if that folder doesn’t exist, take some pictures on your phone first.)
5 – When finished, eject the phone from your computer, disconnect the cables, and the continue with the rest of the steps posted above.

really stupid question…but how do i put the song on my phone after i connected the phone to the computer? like i did the whole converting thing…now how do i put it on my phone so i can use it as a ringer?

“I went to mass storage memorycard DCIM 100SSMED folder it shows a white little box with a question mark on it what do I do ????????????”

Umm… Did you go to Menu > Settings > Sounds > Ringer Type > Voice Calls > Choose an option > Select “My Videos” > Memory Card > and then choose one of the video files (aka ur ring tone) from the file browser and voila! If it doesn’t show up, apparently re-naming your file will help too, but I have never had the need to.

Everyone… Genius was right. For everyone who has the “media file saving has failed” error, just rename your file! When you take pictures, the file is saved as SSPX00xx. The last 2 numbers (the xx) are arranged according to when a file is saved. So when you put you file into the DCIM>100SMED foldier, just rename it with the first 6 characters as “SSPX00″ then anything you want for the next 2 numbers. Ex: SSPX0011

I have been trying things for like 2 months and this is the only thing that worked!!! MAKE SURE YOU DO IT :D

Hi Jake,
Poor as in its too quiet? or poor as in its very staticy? If its too quiet, then when you’re editing it, you can amplify it. If its the quality, you might want to just try the website listed in the instructions, just to see if its the converter. Otherwise its your phone, or the original file’s fault. Otherwise I wouldn’t know how to fix the quality cause… frankly its fine for mine :D

thanks for the advice, but the sound quality is kind of poor, any suggestions? i am using a pretty good program to convert it. i am using xilsoft video converter 3 and the quality just isnt that good on the phone.

Hey Taj,
In Audacity, you want to import the mp3 clip you want to cut down. You can do that by starting a new project and then clicking the “Project” menu at the top, and choosing “Import Audio”, finding the song you want to edit, and then use Audacity to cut it down to what ever you want.

When you’re ready to save it, go to File > Export as WAV (Don’t use Export as MP3 unless you really want to go download another file for Audacity and waste more time :P).

Choose a location to save and export the song. THIS is different than saving the Audacity project by going File > Save. File Save will save the project in an Audacity file format (.aup or something). This is NOT what you want. You will want to export the file.

So yeah, don’t worry about an mp3 extension, just use wav
