How do I d/l ringtones on an unlocked Slider???

[JBRONCFAN]

As my surrounding posts have indicated, I have a fully unlock Virgin Mobile Kyocera Slider and every function is working including the wireless web. Since it was originally programmed by Virgin, I don't have the Get It Now icon on my cell to download ringtones from Verizon over the air. I don't have a cable....yet but for now, is there any way I can download ringtones from Verizon with my cell?

I understand now about entering a URL and linking to the tone fine BUT.........what format are the tones in on my Kyocera Slider? I'm getting a 404 error so either it's a block by Verizon or maybe the midi is in the wrong format. Thought I read somewhere that the extension is like, .kws or something.

Hey, I'm having the same type of problem as you are. I read your previous post about the IP address...I entered in the IP on that post but I still can't get online. What else did you do? Where on the VM phone can you get onto a site?...I have a Virgin Extras button...is that what you use?

I believe both VM and VZN block downloads on their phones. On VZN you can use GIN, and on VM I suppose they have the Virgin Extras or something like that. You could always get a data cable and use a program like BitPim or Gagin to transfer tones and wallpapers to the phone.
