    I actually use the MGS "!" sound for my messages and a Codec ring for my regular ring tone.

    Haven't changed it in months and I love it so much.

    I have the exact same rings for message alerts and calls. I love getting texts and calls so much now.

    Edit: It's from the "Sound Effects - Psychological" track on the first game's bonus disc.
    I don't know where to upload it.

    you mean this?

    http://www.finalturnabout.com/music/sfx/Ding.wav

    Close, but I looked at rest of the stuff in that directory.
    It's Key and it's so fitting for texts, about as much as the metal gear stuff.
    I have Phoenix Wright's Steel Samurai ringtone from the game as my own ringtone as well.
    Those two make such an awesome phone theme.

    Edit: I just noticed that one is only 1 second. The one I have is 3 and also an mp3, If anyone wants it I'll borrow pikapuff's link to upload it.

    Edit 2: well mine is an mp3 but it's also 1 second long as well. I won't bother uploading, you can just convert that file in itunes or something.

    I used to use the Ocarina of Time special chest opening music.

    I may have occasionally held my phone over my head when I received a text.

    The easiest way is via bluetooth, if your pc supports it and your carrier hasn't gimped the bt profiles on your phone. Otherwise you need to find a USB to mini usb cable (the kind that your razr uses for the charge port) and a copy of the motorola phone tools software.

    I use a mini SD card but my phone sometimes doesnt let me copy them from the card, so I attach them in a text message to a phony number like 555 and when it fails I then save the attached song to my phone instead of the card.

    There's probably an easier way, but Verizon sucks.

    This may be a good place to bring it up. What's everyone's experience/opinion regarding these sites that send files to your phone, like http://www.mobile17.com/? It seems a lot more convenient than buying a cable, especially if I only want one file, but I'm afraid of getting my cell phone number on some text messaging spam lists. Does anyone know a trustworthy source?

    well, I got the file as a picture message, so you might have to pay your carrier's standard picture message fees. But I actually dont know what it cost. Probably less than your standard TMobile ringtone, and with more choice cause you made it yourself.

    I'm on a T-Mobil family line and I know it charged a decent ammount to my parents when I added a few midi's to my phone. Don't know the exact ammount, but I think it was more than buying the ringers from tmobil, but the selection didn't suck as much.

    I sent a few to my phone, and they worked smoothly, but they were midis. I wouldnt tempt fate by expecting anything higher quality to work.
