How To: Cropping MP3 & Saving To Phone in MPT

sorry i forgot to mention, I have updated MPT to version 4.3.6c, when i plug in the phone with a USB cable it does indeed charge, and as far as i know i have everything else updated as much as possible.

 

Yes i have the silver v3m. i thought i had read somewhere that doing what i had done so far would be sufficient and was an alternative to doing any seem edits. I was also hoping to spend less time downloading more software that will just take up space on my harddrive all because Verizon sucks. I'll get to it later tonight and we'll see how it goes. thanks alot though! you've been extremely helpful already

 

THANK YOU! i forgot to let you know. I came home and did the two seem edits and it has worked flawlessly since. This almost makes up for how much verizon sucks now days. Atleast now i can do everything on my phone that my girlfriend could already do with hers just b/c she has t-mobile haha.

is there any way to get in to VCAST? because it was on my phone and free for a month when i first got it. i downloaded a couple of free music videos which are still on my phone, but i cant even get to the vcast menu page since i have to pay for it now. Im guessing thats probably closer to the border of illegal and ppl wont want to disclose that info. im just curious if its possible or if anyone has heard of people doing that

 

I have a question..
I have been trying to figure this whole MPT thing out myself but it aint working
I got the new download now when i come to save the file, and hit save nothing happends SO i then tryed to just hit tranfer and nothing happends when i do that either...
Please Help ME!
Thank YOU:biggrin:

 

How is this hack set up? I am using a Verizon V3M and have done the seem edits for MPT. Would like to have web capability also...

Thanks for all the info you post here... it is all quite helpful! :highclap:

 

Any ideas why I might be having file transfer errors after cropping an mp3?
[img=http://img373.imageshack.us/img373/263/processingfailedfg4.png]
I found out you can save the files as *.amr to your PC then rename them to .mp3 and they play fine. Didn't fix that problem though.

Definitely going to look into the wap link. Good looks Cincy.

 

Alright I have the newest MPTs. All I am wanting to do is add a ringtone to my phone from a regular mp3. I crop it and what not on the MPT.

So now whenever I save the crop to my computer it is fine. Whenever I'm trying to transfer it over to my phone now it says mp3 codec error.

I read in a post in this thread that you had to install the mp3s to the root folder. I've tried and all MPT does it stick it in the audio or music folder.

I have some mp3s on my phone, and whenever I go to apply them as a ringtone they are not there. I have tried saving the crop as a different filetype. ( .Wav etc..)

Is there something I am doing wrong? Please help I have searched for mp3 codec error, and everyone elses post seems to not have been answered yet.

Do I have to have a lock on the mp3? Do I have to do something on the phone? Is it the mp3 itself (Megadeth - Gears of war)? Is it the phone itself (Cingular Razer V3)?

I can give more information, so help me, help you, to help me

 

Maybe this picture will help with my post above.

 

yeah. instead of saving it to your computer, click transfer to phone. then go to file transfer studio and send it to your computer from the phone there.

 

Mastercheem I'm getting the SAME problem. Anyone help?

 

Newb - forgive me if this is not the correct forum. It appears everyone is more knowedgeable than myself, so i am looking for some assistance: So here it goes: I have a RazrV3m on a Veriaon Network and I was successful in getting MPT to work with the Razr thru another forum - thank you. I am able to crop and upload MP3's from my PC to Phone. They upload to the audio folder However, when I look on the phone the files are loaded to: Get it now / Get Tunes & Tones / My Music.. My ringtones are located in root Get it now / Get Tunes & Tones: If I go under options in this folder, I can assign an mp3 file as a ringtone, under Get it now / Get Tunes & Tones / My Music.. mp3 .. I can play and erase the mp3. Is there any way to upload to Get it now / Get Tunes & Tones (have the file appear where my ringtones are located) or did I do something wrong in the SEEM steps? Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

 

I'm following your great directions for how to create an mp3 file but still not working. I have a KRZR red and when I try to save my cropped song as an mp3 it says "failed to create file" I've tried saving as a wav or amr file and then transfering but that is not working. it will also say" supported format mp3 codec may be inappropriate or missing" but I have already checked into that and it is fine.What should I try now?

 

Cincyball- I'm getting the same error as above unsupported format - Mp3 codec may be inappropriate or missing - can you please help??

If this isnt the right forum, please let me know. !st time here.
I have a k1m w/verizon. I have done the seem edits to enable MPT Multimedia-all went well, except
MPT will transfer pics to and from phone just fine, but when I create a ringtone, it fails to transfer to phone. error msg is "unsupported file format" I have tried saving and sending them as mp3 and wav, and also tried to send one of MPT's sample .mid ringtones, all giving the same error msg of unsupported file format. Have I missed something? Or is this unique to Verizon phones? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

 

I have done these two seems and they are correct. I have tried a couple ways to get this to work:

1, used the most recent moto software update running in the background, launch p2k-commander - I can transfer files just fine but cannot assign them as ringtones to ppl.

2. Running MPT v4.51c got MMS to show up, selected file transfer to phone in the File Transfer Studio and got 'request denied by phone unsupported media type'. The media type was a converted .mid to .mp3. I have also read where iTunes can recognize the phone and transfer haven't figured that one out yet. My quandary is not in transferring the files-I can do that with p2kcommander. My quandary is assigning them to ppl as ringtones. You assistance will definitely be appreciated. Thanks. You can also email me at sharrahl@ameritech.net

 

I am having that problem as well. I can't save to my computer OR transfer to phone. I have the latest version of MPT and Windows Vista. Someone help please??

 

Have a v3m set up 2 v3mm. But I can not transfer mp3 to the phone , gives an error everytime. Any help greatly appreciated. Basically same problem as above

 

Hello everyone, I hope someone can help me. I have a v3m through verizon. I have downloaded MPT and done the seem edits to enable file transfers, I can transfer pics to my phone but cant get ringtones on it. I have read all the posts and cant find anyone with my same problem. Even if my audio file is mp3 i still get an error message that says unsupported media type when i try to transfer ringtones. Also when i click on the video studio in MPT it closes down and sends me back to the mobile phone icon on my desk top. Any ideas whats going on here. I believe I have MPT 4.5.6 and I do have motorola software update downloaded. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

so my red razr v3m works with mpt, but when i try to make ringtones and transfer them to my phone, i get this message:

Unsupported format
(mp3 codec may be inappropriate or missing)

i can actually edit the ringtones and save them to my computer, but it won't let me transfer the files to my phone.
can anyone help me?
