Instructions

Step1
Go to "Get Tunes & Tones," and select "Record New." Then, select "Options" from the menu and switch over to "Mini SD Card" as the storage device.
Step2
Return to "Record New" and record anything. It can be for two seconds or more in duration.
Step3
Check whether your recording worked by going to "Get Tunes & Tones" and play your recording. If you were successful, go on to the next step. If not, repeat the above steps.
Step4
Turn off your phone and remove the Transflash card, and insert it into your PC. Then, copy any MP3 file of your choice onto the Transflash card's root directory.
Step5

on 12/29/2007 Step six seems to be confusing. Can you please clarify what you mean by "replacing the audio file you just copied with the MP3"?
