Verizon Problem

[hendrixvodu]

Just picked up a new phone, Samsung U740.



And I have no ring tones and I don't want to pay for them. I tried using Myxer and another site to send them, and I sent them like 5 hours ago and haven't got them yet. But I can still receive pics from other phones and I can send pics to my email. Anyone else having this problem?

wont work man....verizon sets up there phones so it wont work...like if you had an old verizon phone say an old Lg where you can make your own ringtones ...like sounds you record on your phone with the MIC you could do it, but newer phones wont let you set MIC sounds with new phones....and thats how those ring tone sites work...they send the sound the the MIC recorded sounds...which you me or any new verizon customer doesnt have.....:( sigh awesome service but crappy phones and plans....only good thing that verizon has coming is the new Voyager!!!! very nice phone...it will sure as hell give the I-phone a run for its money!

What? I used to do it all the time with my VX8300. According to Myxer.net Verizon is just having network problems, some will receive hours after sending. I have no idea what you are talking about when you say they send mic recorded sounds, they just send the file you uploaded. I'm pretty sure this phone can record from the microphone.

my 9800 and 9900 ...both said on the site i went to that i could work....and both didnt work....and you know what i mean....you voice record into the phone....and it saves it in "my sounds" perhaps its an LG thing that it wont work for some reason?

Who do you use James?

My work phone is a PPC-6700 on Sprint, ROM Hacked to WM6 and all the Sprint junk removed.

My Personal phone is a Sony Ericsson K-810i Unlocked on AT&T.

My 2 best friends both have this phone on Verizon.
I helped them transfer some Mp3's over in full 192kb bitrate.
They work fine as ringtone mp3's? You just have to run the software that Verizon provides, called VZW Mix or something.

Another point for AT&T. Thanks.

I gave Verizon the finger after they screwed me. I bought a new phone & plan from them (after being with them since Day One) and the phone croaked on me after giving me trouble for two weeks. I talked to a rep who offered to send me an upgraded Motorola phone for free, and I was actually satisfied with the deal.

Two weeks later, no phone. When I called, they refused to send the phone they promised me, and after an hour of bitching, they agreed to send me a "better" phone. When it showed up, it was a POS LG flip phone.

When I expressed my dissatisfaction with the phone, they basically told me to jam it up my ass.

I ran up a $785 bill, then sent the phone back to them and told them I wasn't paying. That was three years ago. They came after me for a while, but finally gave up.

Fuck 'em.

My girlfriend's family has Verizon and they all like it and have never had problems. She has an LG VX8600 and used BitPim to do anything to it.

I'm suprised no one has mentioned verizon's data network. It's slow as shit. If you've got a phone and are trying to browse the web alot and shit liek that, then Sprint is the network for oyu. They're leaps and bounds ahead of verizon and at&t.
