M55 ringtone and startup/shutdown animation questions

I've noticed with the M55 that there are some ringtones and startup/shutdown animations (ie. Fido logo) that don't seem to be listed when you go into the Setup options.

For example, if no ringtone is selected for the phonebook calls or one of the other options such as "Other calls", some sort of default ringtone is used that doesn't appear to be in the typical list...

The same thing seems to be true with the Fido startup/shutdown animation logo except that when you go into Setup -> Display -> Logo, EMS is highlighted....

Does anyone know what the actual name of this "default" ringtone is and whether the Fido startup and shutdown logo can be deleted?

To get rid of the Fido screen that appears when powering the phone on and off I just set the Logo to something else...actually I found a nice Siemens .jpg and set it as the startup and shutdown animation and it now overrides the Fido logo.

I even went one step further and set the logo to a transparent gif file and this gets rid of the banner altogether...

Sorry, this is a bit of a dumb question...
Where does this transparent.gif go??? What folder on the phone and what do I select on my phone.

Thanks.

Can someone please post the OEM "Siemens" startup and shutdown logos/animations, I want to replace the Cingulars ones.

I love Cingulars service, but they put some STUPID looking stuff on our phones.

What software are you using to see this folder from the PC. I would like to delete this folder from my phone to make more room and get rid of the fido logo's. Thanks.

You can use Windows Explorer to see the folders. It should show up a mobile device.
