![]() I recommend a 128 Kbps MP3, because a 30-second MP3 encoded at 128 Kbps is right at 500 KB. I have also successfully sent the tones to other phones on other networks, but with less consistent success.įirst thing's first: get the (legally obtained) music ready. ![]() Update : I have confirmed that this process works for a variety of LG phones on the Verizon network that use MP3 ringtones and MicroSD memory cards. I don't know how this may apply to other phones on other networks, as I am not an expert, so don't try this at home if you don't know what you're doing. WARNING: I have the LG enV2 (LG VX9100) for Verizon Wireless. Luckily, I have free software that does everything I need. It's actually very easy once the sound clips are ringtone-ready, but the ones that aren't require some software. I had had the phone for maybe 10 hours before I had uploaded my first custom ringtones. Message was edited by: on the second day of trying.I love the enV2 already. Still no score, but the game is still on. A potential reason for Verizon to disable this function is to stop users from futzing with the phone internals. Verizon makes much harder than necessary because they apparently have disabled the LG function 'USB Mass Storage Device.' Maybe there is some hidden service menu that enables it, but I've not been able to find it. Call this a clean double, but could be much better.īottom line: use Bluetooth to transfer pictures to/from phone. The Win7 operation, 'Send files to remote device' didn't work - or at least I can't find anything I sent on the phone. The browser shows just two folders on the phone: Pictures and Sounds. ![]() The Bluetooth support in Win7 also has operations to 'Browse and Transfer files' which also worked from the PC, and thankfully that way is bidirectional. Finally getting some where - the phone has a 'send to Bluetooth' option in the pictures menu, and that works to copy/send one or more pictures to a folder on the PC. I have a Bluetooth dongle for the desktop, so installed that and paired the phone with it. Uninstalled everything (Revouninstaller is great!) and even considered system restore - I like my system clean. BitPim failed to start after installation, MSVCP71.dll not found, even though that file was in the BitPim program folder. Didn't do any upgrading or changing of the phone, it's brand new. A 'LGE CDMA Composite USB Device' does appear in the Windows Device Manager but no drive in 'My Computer'. The LG web site has a USB Driver and a "LG Mobile support tool." Installed them, the LG tool said to install the "Verizon Wireless Software Upgrade Assistant" Windows installed three drivers, but still no USB mass storage device. My guess is Verizon deliberately disabled that function. And the phone doesn't have a matching entry under the tools menu. ![]() The manual (*not* included with the phone, only found by Google) lists an entry for the USB mass storage device setting in the Table of Contents (chapter 3.12) but the actual instructions only go to chapter 3.10. Downloaded and installed to find it's a *modem* driver, not a USB mass storage device driver. Windows 7 wanted a driver and helpfully pointed me to the download. Connected it to my computer to figure how to up/download pictures. Just got this LG Revere from Verizon for my wife who just wanted a plain jane phone.
