I found that the i870 mp3 player has the same stupid problem as loading ringtones in webjal or myjal.

The i870 does not support mp3 files with the long names. They just do not show up. You must rename the file to under 12 characters.

I know what the next post will be.... so here is the answer:

from windows right click the file. Yes RIGHT click NOT left click. Then choose rename. Type in the new short name. It doesn't matter what you call it. Then press enter. It is now renamed.
 
I didnt want to make a new post about the same phone. I heard that the i780 doesn't have voice recorder, video recorder and play back or is airplane mode capable. Not that any of these features matter, just curious of what was taken out to add the 1.3 cam!
 
1.3 Megapixel Built-In Camera
Capture images for personal and business purposes and send them to friends and colleagues using the built-in 1.3 megapixel camera with 4x digital zoom.
Record Video, Playback, and Send
Record videos of up to one hour to larger memory Micro SD memory cards (sold separately). Send small videos via Multimedia Messaging service (on average, six seconds).

so yea, it does video. i cant wait to get mine, are you sure thats how you add mp3's? doesnt it come with software so that you can load it with? i would figure nextel would do something simular to the way cingular did their MP3 phone with the itunes.

o well,
 
no, no software it comes with a usb drive. drag them over to the drive. but you have to shorten the names of the songs for them to show up in the mp3 player.
 
Thats the same way I add music to my i930. Just drag it over to the right folder and open it via WMP. There is no special software for adding mp3's to ur phone. I don't know why you have to shorten the file name. To my knowledge i930 users do not have to shorten file names.
