Here's a blow-by-blow set of steps for Linux users. (Windows folks will need to download and run the Windows version of the software but the changes should be trivial.) I did this with a Nokia 8265 on 21 March 2003 and it works fine. If you have a different model cellular telephone, see the notes at the website below. Surf to http://ringtonetools.mikekohn.net/ At the left, click on "Java/PHP logo/ringtone" Once there, click on "Java Ringtones" Read the instructions to create (and edit) the ringtones Set the songname to something brief (appears later as ringtone name) Set the tempo Set the style Click "Get RTX" Copy the displayed RTX Paste the RTX into a local text file such as flint.rtx Surf to http://ringtonetools.mikekohn.net/ (same place) At the left, click on "Download" Linux Only: get "LATEST SOURCE (date)" (e.g., ringtonetools-2.11.tar.gz) Windows Only: I don't know. Your steps from here on may be different. Linux Only: Make a new directory and "cd" into it tar xzvf ringtonetools-2.11.tar.gz (or whatever file was downloaded) cd ringtonetools-2.11 (or whatever) make su (become root) make install exit (revert to normal user) Convert to Nokia's format In a Linux shell (or a Windows Command window) ringtonetools flint.rtx flint.nokia Surf to http://www.mobile.att.net/messagecenter/ Cut and paste the flint.nokia file as the message to be sent Fill-in other blanks as appropriate Send the message On the cellular telephone Phone should indicate something has happened The display should say "Ringtone received" Push the appropriate buttons to save the ringtone (uses the name set above) Push the appropriate buttons to select it as the current ringtone >From some other telephone Dial the cell. phone to verify the new ringtone has been activated -- Ed Skinner, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.flat5.net/ To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
