I downloaded ringtones from verizon wireless. Got a message saying I have successfully purchased them. When I click on the message the ringtone plays. But there is NO WAY to download them into my ringtone list. I called support and they had no idea. Has anyone figured out how to download ringtones to this phone????
One of the ringtones that I purchased automatically showed up in my ringtones. That's how its worked with past phones. Is this a glitch in the fascinate?

hellpretty86, it isn't that I doubt you at all. But, can someone verify that this works for VZW ringtones? I had this same issue when I purchased ringtones on VZW last week and when I called customer service, I was told this is a known issue with Android phones that they are working to resolve, but at this point have not, and they credited me for the cost of the ringtones.
I don't want to re-purchase them and try this if it isn't confirmed and reconfirmed to work.
I bought them from my computer at verizonwireless.com. I called support & they gave me all different directions (in other words they didn't know) and said if I re-ordered them they would not charge me twice for the same ringtone. They would remove any duplicated purchases. I have 12 duplicates that they will be removing.
I followed hell's directions and it worked. Once I assigned the sound to a contact, the sound showed up on the ringtone list.
WAIT! HELP! This is marked as resolved, but this does not work for me. When I get the ringtone in a text message, the option to select and save is not there. The only option is "Download" right on the message, but that is what didn't work last time. Do you think the problem is that I am using Handcent instead of the native message app?
When you open the message and hear the tone toch the menu key (lower left). There should be an option "attach items". Is that there? What happens when you choose it?
when I open the message there is no tone. there is only a message that reads
Congratulations! You have successfully p> Message size: 30KB
and a box that reads Download
Have you checked your music player to see if the tone is there?
I'm not familiar with handcent. Is there any way to retrieve the message with the default message program?
Not in the music player. I even uninstalled Handcent and then went in through the native message app, but it is showing the same way and I still have no option to select attachments. Big Sigh I've emailed Verizon Customer Service and asked them to once again credit me for the failed ringtone attempt.
MeAgain, thanks for your perserverance in trying to help me.
WAIT!!! I got it to work. Had to "download" the file first and then go to menu and the select attachment showed up.
But now I have another question. Why is there a thumbnail picture of my daughter next to the song title in the music player (like as the album art)? She isn't the contact I assigned the ringtone to. Is there a way to change the picture associated with the music?
No idea......at least you got the tone. I don't see any options on any menu in the music player for working with the picture. Hope someone here figures it out for you.
Bought 2 ringtones from VZ for my vortex- got in my email, but they won't download, and can't figure out what to do-Help
