How to Get Real Music on a MetroPCS Phone

How to Get Real Music on a MetroPCS Phone thumbnail
Connect your MetroPCS cell phone to a computer through its USB adapter.

While you may be used to downloading ringtones onto your cell phone, media playback-capable devices allow you to enjoy real music from the handset. Storing music on your phone affords you the luxury of enjoying your favorite songs without having to carry along a separate media player. Because MetroPCS does not require its phones to use a standard media management utility like some other providers do, you can add music from your personal collection onto your device as if it were any other connected USB storage hardware.
