Open the message and the ringtone will start to play. Click on options and select "save as ringtone". It is now saved as a ringtone and you shouldn't have to worry about ringtone size. Most of mine are around 350KB. I probably have 30 ringtones on my phone so far. By the way, my phone is the LG env2 and I was also told that on most Verizon phones that the ringtone cannot be on the sd card. It has to be saved on the phone memory.
 
Thats what I did, but when I open the message I get no sound or nothing and did exactly as you put to do. And no option to save as ringtone anywhere.
 
First of all make sure that when you click on "export", in Magix, the next popup window appears. In that window, look at number 1. It is titled "Local Storage Location". At the end of the file location name it says "New.mp3". Left click right after the "w" in "New". Backspace 3 times to remove the word New. Now type in the name of the song along with a number to let you know this is the ringtone, not the actual song.
Now go through the rest of what I put on here earlier. Send it to your phone via your number including area [email protected]. It will not come to you as an e-mail. It will be in your text messages. Open it and the ringtone will start to play. Sometimes it takes a bit for it to begin to play. If you open your phone to the qwerty keyboard, you would have opened it with the message button at the top left. When you have opened it as a text message and it is playing, click on the top right button labeled "Options". The 4th option is "Save As Ringtone". Click "OK". Then click "OK" again and it will save to your phone. Again, don't open it as an e-mail. It is coming to you as a "Pic/Video/Voice" message. This should work as you have the same phone I do. I guess I should have asked earlier this. Are you with Verizon?
 
Yep, I'm with Verizon. Gonna try and give it another go before I go to bed. I'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks

Figure it out. I was using the song out of the Magix ringtone audio file. So I sent it to the desktop this time and it worked great. Thanks for the help. What do you suggest for the volume level to be? Wide open like I had it makes it sound horrible, lol.
 
It usually doesn't sound good when you orginally open the message. Go to your ringtones and play it there or if you have applied it as your ringtone, call your phone from your home phone. If you call it from your home phone, open your phone before calling. That way you can listen to it open and then close it to hear it that way. As long as you saved it in stereo and 96 kBits/s, you should be fine. I now have 80 ringtones, all 30 seconds and saved this way on my phone.
 
Oh, I saved it as MONO. Oh well, lol fix it on my next songs. My fiancee has a Motorola Hint which is a Alltel phone but is now under verizon. I just tried it on her's and I got a email from Verizon saying it wasn't able to deliver it. Any ideas for her cell?

Thanks for the help by the way.
