Adding ringtones to 2610 and 1600 confirmed.

I have successfully uploaded custom ringtones to both my 2610 and 1600.

I purchased a Nok CA-45 cable from ebay, let XP install the driver. Then, using MobiMB I was able to drag midi (.mid) ringtones to the phones.

The 2610 allows way more customization, I was also able to upload and change backgrounds, and I can see all the java games, the 7-11 theme, and more. I haven't tried to do anything with them yet. I could also drag items from the phone to the computer, to save them in case I want to delete them to make more space available, etc.

The 1600 only shows a custom ringtone area, nothing else.

Thanks -- this is useful!

Want to write a more detailed article about the procedures for this? See my post here.

Is it possible to add/remove contacts on the 1600 using either MobiMB or another program?

That link doesn't confirm that the software will work with the Nokia 1600 (which has very limited capabilities over the FBUS connector).

I'd really like to re-import my contacts back to the 1600, but if the software won't support it then there's no point in getting the cable.

See http://www.logomanager.co.uk/p......php?id=53 and download their demo. However, if you want to be sure then contact LogoManager directly.

Anyone have the full version of Mobimb to "share"? Or a link to a download for a free full version? I have the demo version of 3.3.7 but it won't let me move ringtones. It does allow images and games but with a 64k restriction.

I'm planning to get the 2760 model but I was not able to find the data cable on the Interenet. I understand this is a new model just released, does any know which cable for other Nokia models will work with this phone?

Thanks

I did try to add mp3 ring tones made from my own files but it seem they are blocked. I can play the files just fine but when I try to select them as a ring tone I get the message "cannot be set as ringing tone".

The work around I used was to convert the file to .amr format (the same thing the phone uses to record voice message in) and then selected it from there. It isn't as good a quality as mp3 but you can't really tell. That and it's free!!

The other option would be to just play your favorite music and use the record button straight from the cell phone.
