PROBLEM

i am trying to ringtones from my computerr to my lg shinee...they are in mp3 format but when i put them....i go under audio and ringtones....but when i go to that ringtone it does not allow me to apply it as a ringtone?? how come??

SOLUTION

1. Gahhh.. I seriously spent hours trying to figure out how to get my ringtone to work, and I FINALLY found the solution.
   
   Simply import your ringtone file to makeownringtone.com and redownload the ringtone and then copy and paste the file onto your microsd card.
   
   Works like a charm :). I hope this helps.
2. SOLUTION!!! (for those with a memory card but no usb cable!)
   
   I’ve been having the same problem in trying to find a way to set my music as ringtones. Here’s what you can do:
   
   
   -Make sure the file is appropriate.. 30 seconds or less, mp3 format
   -When you add your music to the memory card, it shows up as a song but not as a ringtone right?
   
   
   The solution is to create a different folder rather than using the “Music” folder the phone automatically creates for you. Transfer your music to this new folder you’ve created. The ringtones should show up as long as it fits the requirements! :] Hope this helps!
3. You have to somehow cut the song down to UNDER 300KB. From there, the only way I've been able to work is to literally e-mail my song file from my computer, to my phone as a text message. This is the only luck I've had, lemme know if you have any luck.
   
   You can e-mail the song file as an attatchment in an e-mail to your cell phone's TXT messaging address, which should be this:
   0000000000@mms.att.net
   The zero's being your cell phone number (Including area code)
   
   From there, simply open the text message once received on your phone (Can take up to 5 minutes) and then go to options>view attachment>select the sound file>save
   
   Its a bit of work, but it seems to work for me.
   I hope I've helped.
4. The ringtones on the shine will only play for 19 secs or so. this phone has a short ringing-duration before it swithes to voicemail. so i do all my ringtones as 30secs or less otherwise it will not set the tone. it will also play mpeg-4 files but not set them as they are far to large. My previous phone had i-tunes (mp4) and i had 100 songs on my mSD card. Much to my surprise when i put the card in the shine and opened the mp3 player, all the songs showed up(including the mp3 tones i had on it)! The only problem: well the file-name system is different between the two, so they all had names like 154hr8y7.mp4. sucks. and when i try to change file names with the phone it shuts down and restarts

SOLUTION

1. F I N A L L Y!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
   I fixed it!!!!! I spent time talking to tmobile and TG! But after non stop research, I found it! Here it is:
   
   First setup your access point:
   Title:Tzones
   Bearer: GPRS
   Authentication:PAP
   APN: www.voicestream.com
   
   Next set up your browser:
   Srvice name: T-zones GPRS

   mms proxy:216.155.174.050:8080
   connection mode: TCP with proxy
   access point: tzones
2. I had the same problem, but i called tmobile, my cell phone company, and they sent me a text message with all the valid mms configurations, so all i had to do was save it to my phone and .whala!! it worked, i got to view all my picture text messages my friends sent me.

PROBLEM

I can't get the music files from the folder my stuff on my LG shine in to mp3 bit. I can play them from my phone to my computer just not the other way round. Please help It's doing my head in. xx Thanks

SOLUTION

1. Hey, I have the LG Shine in pink aswell and it is compatible with Windows Vista. When you purchase the phone there should be a CD that comes with it to install a program called LG PC Suite. You must install that. After it will install the Wizard thing for the USB. You cannot have the phone connected to it and the computer when you are installing this. When you are done, you can connect the phone to the USB cord and leave the phone on. Open up the new LG PC Suite program and it will search for a conncetion.
2. You ppl are weird. In settings you have a menu for usb connections(on your phone settings(menu9)), you select mass media, or mass data, or whatever it says...
   
   When you plug it into your PC via usb, the phone is recognized as a removable disk..You just put files on it, and it automatically sorts them according their format... Simple, just plain old drag and drop...
   
   Enjoy
3. 
   If you don't have your phone switched over to Mass Storage instead of Music Sync it won't work. When you connect your phone and it says connecting with Music Sync, disconnect and go to settings on your main menu. Got to Connections and change USB Connection from Music Sync to Mass Storage by selecting Mass Storage. Note also that if you don't have a SD card in your phone, your phone may automatically disconnect when you connect or come up asking for a disk or cd. You must have SD storage to put music on your phone.
   
   That should solve your problems.
