How-to: Install Ringtones on T-Mobile MyTouch 4G Slide

Posted: 09 Feb 2012 12:04 AM PST

First, you'll need to find some ringtones you like. To make things as simple as possible, ensure your ringtones are DRM-free MP3 files. Also, they should typically be 30-seconds or less in length.

Once you have some great ringtones on your computer, you're ready to go. Ensure your microSD card is in your HTC myTouch 4G Slide, then connect the phone to your computer using the supplied USB cable. If your HTC myTouch 4G Slide does not mount automatically, touch the USB icon that appears in the menu bar at the top of the display, drag it down to expose the Android Notification Pane, then tap on USB Connected and select Mount (or Disk Drive).

Using a file explorer on your computer, navigate to the root folder (the main directory) of the memory card in your HTC myTouch 4G Slide. Create a new folder called ringtones (some devices require a lowercase "r" so please name the new folder exactly as specified). Now, simply copy all of the MP3 ringtones you want on your HTC myTouch 4G Slide into the new ringtones folder.

That's it! You can now un-mount your HTC myTouch 4G Slide and your ringtones will become available as options when changing your ringtone.

To set one of your new MP3s as your ringtone, tap 'Menu > Settings' from the Home screen. Tap 'Sound', then 'Phone ringtone'. Scroll to the ringtone you want, select it and then tap 'OK'. Congratulations! You just successfully added and changed the ringtone selection on your T-Mobile MyTouch 4G Slide.

BLU Studio 5.3 Unlocked Phone/Tablet Video review

Posted: 08 Feb 2012 03:56 PM PST

Hi all :) Just wanted to post a little video review I did of a pretty nice phone from a company called BLU. They are quite big in Latin America, apparently, and they have just recently expanded into the United States. At first they put out the usual assortment of Dumb phones, of which I picked up one called the Spark that I got for free with a refill card purchase for T-Mobile. I actually found it to be a pretty tough phone with just enough features to keep my attention. So when they released what looks like their flagship phone, called the Studio 5.3, I checked around online to see if any info was available for it....and found almost nothing. When I saw that Extensys had them for sale, I decided to take a chance and bought one for around $260.00US. I have done a review of what I found out about this really nice, well made android 2.5.3, Dual Sim, unlocked GSM phone. Let me know what you think :)
