Cannot access Ring Detail

First go into 'Multimedia'>Sounds>Highlight a Ringtone>Press Menu>Apply as Ringtone

If that does not work:

Use a P2k program and delete the 2 .db files (MyToneDB and TempToneDB) in the audio folder and restart the phone.

The 2 .db files MyToneDB.db and TempToneDB.db hold information about which ringtones are present on the phone and what they may be assigned to. When you delete them they are rebuilt when you restart the phone.

not to mock anyone, but read his question properly. motomodder66316 have you saved you ringtones to Transflash? if so you need to move them over to your phones memory to be able to use them, stupid i know but its the only way.

Try changing your added ringtone's filenames to NOT have anything But numbers and letters.
