How do i change the names of mp3 on my samsung messager phone

i have a samsung gravity t459 nd they only gave me 4 text messgae rintones nd i dont like them so how do i put one of my songs off of my music player nd put as my text messga ringtone

1) Tools, Options, uncheck "contact names only".

2) not sure about the mp3 tone.

Hi buddy!! Samsung sgh-l700 also supports other message tones. But to utilize it you must convert the required tone into MIDI format. You can do this with this software- "MP3 to Ringtone Gold".

So after working on this all night long, I've got it figured out!

Ok so first things first, I don't know about your phone but mine (at least with cricket) won't allow attachments on sms messages, only mms messages.

So you will need to make sure you can accept picture messages, with cricket you are supposed to be able to for free however, that wasn't the case for me, I had to sign up for a month but it's only $3 and I intend to get everything I want in the next week.

So once you know you can recieve picture messages (mms) you can then email yourself ringtones.. ok well it's not quite that simple...

First you can only receive a .mid file, so mp3's are out, at least if you send it to yourself with that format. You also can only accept files that are 113kb or less, so if it's bigger you will have to shrink it or shorten it. To shrink or shorten your MP3 PRIOR to changing the format, download switch at http://www.nch.com.au/switch/ Once you've downloaded it open or drag and drop the mp3 in the empty space. On the bottom left click on encoder options you want to change the constant bit rate to something that will help bring the file size down.. if it's just a tad too big like 125kb then select 112kb, if it's 400kb then select 48 or 56, just above that you can select where you would like it to be when you finish converting it, I like the desktop so I don't have to search for it. Then click on convert, you then find your new mp3 on your desktop (or where ever you chose) and check the properties to be sure it is 113kb or less, if not go back and adjust the bit rate again, or you can shorten your clip by downloading wavepad sound editor both programs are free.

Once your file is the right size, it's time to change the format.

To change the format without a converter you must open your folder options and scroll down and deselect *hide known file extensions. This way it will show the name.ext, you simply click on it to rename it and change it to name.mid Once this is done you can email it to your phone... my mms email is [email protected] I just add the audio as a file attachment.

Once your phone recieves the message it should begin playing when you open the message, if the audio doesnt play then it was in the wrong format, try again, otherwise press the options button, go down and select save as sound, then put in the name you want (if you want it changed) and click ok.

Now you can find it under the media/ melody gallery/ downloads.

I had the exact same problem and solved it just now.

I removed the memory card from the phone and inserted in to my PC.

All of my music, videos and pics were in a folder I had created called 'mobile' on the memory card. That's what was causing the problem. The phone can open files only from specific pre-arranged folders. You can't change which folders it will search from the phone.

You have to CUT all of your files from their current folder, and PASTE them into the folders that the Samsung phone can recognize, i.e. pictures into images, mp3's into Music, etc.

My MP3 player is working brilliantly now. Hope this helps!

Hi Jane,
To put mp3 files as message tone you have to download a .mid file and put it in with all of your other mp3 files. once you have done that go into settings and go to the message tone settings. press use my effective alert tone or what ever it says and click play on the .mid file the just go across and find the mp3 you want but dont go out of the play mode until you select the mp3 you want.
im glad i could help.

I solved this problem by inserting my memory card that contained the Mp3 files on my computer.

Then I went and manually shortened all of the files names. There's a limit of 32 characters for file names on this phone.

After I did this, my phone can play every song!

Hope this helps..

format your sd card with phone...connect to pc... add music.. make sure the music is mp3 format and the name of the song is less than 13 characters

hey message tone can be also in mp3 to change your message tone you have to go to profiles and their you have to select your profile and go to options their go to edit from their for message settings their you can change them,before this you have to copy the tone to phone if it is in memory card

Please have a look to your SGH-G600 manual, there is no option to add mp3 as ringtoon or message toon.

I hope this will be answer to your question.
