5. In Mp Trim click open, browse for the file you chose, and select it.
6.The "How much would you like to trim?" grouping allows you to cut down the length of the song you chose by "chopping off" seconds or minutes from he beginning or end of the song. go ahead and do so bu using the data you gathered in step 3.
7. You now have the ring tone you want now you need to convert it into a file that your phone will play. Now there are thousands of phones out there and i really don't have the time to research and allocate their preferred file types so i will be leaving this part for you. however most have mp3 compatibilities and most rely on pure voice format. Just Google it.
8. http://media-convert.com/ will be doing the job of converting our trimmed mp3 into a phone friendly sound file. upload your file. Leave the input format at auto and change the output format to your respective phone type. click OK. let it do its thing
9. After the data is processed you will be prompted to select the quality and if you want noise filtering. I leave it the way it is. It works so don't mess with it.
10. Click ok, and then download your converted file.
Ok From here there are two ways to transfer your file to your phone.
Data cable or Bluetooth.
The data cable way
11. Download and install the respective driver for your phone, this is a good website to do so. and make sure you have the respective data cable, if not they are about 5 dollars at your phone retailer.
12. Open up Bitpim it will normally auto recognize your phone, if not use the wizard, or the screwdriver and wrench button on the ribbon bar.
13 Go to media then ringers. click the add ringer and select the ringer you just converted.
14. Click on send phone data in the ribbon bar. and let the data transfer to your phone.
15. most phone will auto restart when Bitpim dose its thing. once your phone is back up and running you should have your new ring tone.
Bluetooth
11. first of all blue tooth is a lot more complicated that data cable transferring. you NEED to have bluetooth on both your phone AND your pc.
12. If you have bluetooth on both pieces of equipment then congratz, run the bluetooth wizard on your desktop. its like any other Microsoft wizard its idiot proof. but be sure to set your phone to discovery mode.
13. Once your phone is recognized by your pc open up Bitpim.
14. like data cables you phone will either be recognized or you will have to use the wizard.
15. if you use the wizard then after selecting your phone you will have to select the right COMM port. each computer is different so you might have to experiment a little.
The rest goes as follows.
1 Go to media then ringers. click the add ringer and select the ringer you just converted.
2. Click on send phone data in the ribbon bar. and let the data transfer to your phone.
3. most phone will auto restart when Bitpim dose its thing. once your phone is back up and running you should have your new ring tone.
