Brewsky 8900 - Easy to use ring tone/wallpaper manager for Audiovox 8900

I am sorry this is hard.

First the Audiovox 8900 is a TX95C or Hyundai TX95c works with Brewsky well at making mp3 files under 200k (or you will crash phone).

A FREE audio program that can encode your mp3 is:
audacity 1.2.2.

It is available for MAC and PC.
Not as good as Cool edit pro for this
 
I have an Audiovox 8910....does this work for my phone? I just ordered a USB cable for it, but i dont know what program to use to transfer over ringtones and wallpaper
 
Some 89xx users have caused there phones to enter a continuous reboot cycle by attempting to upload to the phone via BitPim or Brewsky. Do some have been successful in uploading MP3 ringers, games, and wallpapers. Do so at your own risk.

Some models of 8910 Phones will reboot while trying to interface with the PC. This is caused by charging cables. The Phone Mall only sells non charging cables for the 89xx phones now.

Downloading the pics from your phone is super easy and poses no hazard of damage as you are not manipulating the filesystem.. just saving it.
 
What audio program are you using? I've seen a lot of folks using Soundforge. My advice would be to dump it. I had no luck at all getting an mp3 to work when using it. I tried about 10 different encoding schemes and they would all never play on my phone, I'd just get silence when I tried to use Soundforge encoded mp3's.

I am using Adobe Audition 1.5 and the very first mp3 I encoded worked like a charm on my phone. I used these settings to encode it : 64kbps 44100khz mono. The sound quality is much better than the other suggested encoding settings I've seen in the various tutorials on getting mp3's on the 8900. Also, don't worry about changing the mp3 to a mid, you don't need to. And the whole 'keep your mp3 at or under 100kb isn't true either.' My current ringtone is 238kb.

I used a total of 3 steps to get my ringtone from pc to phone. First, trim 30 seconds out of the desired mp3, encode to above settings, open Brewsky and upload to phone. No renaming, no crappy codec settings and it worked great.

Also keep in mind that once you have your ringtone working that it has to be assigned through the Settings/Sounds menu.

Hope this helps.
 
New to this forum, so if this has been answered, sorry!!

So has this question been answered? I refuse to pay the evil us cellular ppl for the ringtones they have selected. I've been trying different ways and could use all the help I can get... while I still have some hair ;)

Does anyone have a problem viewing the file system of their 8900 with brewsky?
everything else works but the filesystem tab, it doesn't display anything.
 
Okay, I would like to get Brewsky to work with both my fiance's Audiovox 8910 and my Kyocera Slider on the Alltel network. I've discovered they're both Kyocera phones with similar software and exactly the same data cable. I also noticed that your software has a data.ini file which functions as the "setup" for each carrier. What I need to be able to do is modify that "script" so that it is functional for each phone (neh?). So I've got this much down...

[Alltel]
ring=user/sound/ringer
photo=brew/shared/jpeg

Unfortunatly I've never downloaded a wallpaper (but for the moment) I'm assuming that the file directory will be...
wallpaper=brew/shared/images

So my question is how do I get the following information?
tone=00000000000000000000000000000000000A000300000000000000892B100000000000212C100063680B0305000000FFFF0000
start=94
and what does it mean?
