Answer 1

here is something that should allow you to transfer mp3's to you phone so that you can use them as ringtones via bluetooth transfer.

Okay so first I downloaded a program that would allow me to sync the computer and the phone.

http://www.bitpim.org/#download

You may still need to pair your bluetooth phone with the computer before you use bit pim.

Then I made sure that my phone's blue tooth was visible.

On my phone you have to go to
Settings and tools / Bluetooth / my visibility / show to all

I suspect your phone will be similar.

Then with the bit pim program open:

Under the file menu I clicked edit/detect phone.

This should detect the phone as long as you set your phone as was set to visible recently. My phones visibility lasts for 3 min. It is plenty of time for the phone to connect. It will last longer than 3 min after it is connected.

Then I was able to send it all sorts of cool things.

You can click ringers and then send your phone a mp3 file that will be set as a ringtone.

If the click the get info from phone button, you can download emails, txt messages, your contacts list, update you calendar on the computer with any new entry's you have made on your phone. import/export ex.


Hope this helps, I was pretty excited to find this program because I knew my phone and my computer were bluetooth capable but all I could seem to do was pair the devices.

I could not send any info back and forth prior to figuring this out.

This is a web site that I used to get some info and this portion is specific to your phone.

Good Luck!

::: Motorola Rokr Z6m ::: Pros ~ The Motorola Rokr Z6m has an attractive, easy-to-use design with a solid feature set. It's a good performer, too. Cons ~ The Motorola Rokr Z6m camera and music player lack high-end offerings. Also, it doesn't come with the necessary equipment for transferring music to the phone. Bottomline ~ The Motorola Rokr Z6m is a quality music phone, but we wished it offered a few more features and came with additional extras in the box. ::: LG UX260 ::: Pros ~ Stylish slide-out QWERTY keypad, MP3 player, 1.3 Megapixel camera, Bluetooth-enabled. Cons ~ Body not durable, Battery life not good. Bottomline ~ It's a good buy for those who want cheap smartphone but not good enough.
