V360 owners: ringtones can only be played from PHONE memory, not trans?

hi! i just bought a v360 and i checked the transflash card by hooking it up to a pc.

there are a bunch of folders but most notable are "audio" and "ringtone"

i put mp3s in each folder but no matter what, when i go through the menu, i cannot select any songs from the transflash as a ringtone. i am only able to select ringtones in PHONE MEMORY. i tried switching the "storage media" in options too.

is my PHONE broken? or is this the way all motorola v360s are... in that ringtones can only be played from phone memory?

in addition, if no v360s can play ringtones from transflash memory, what is the point of a RINGTONE folder on the memory card?

try going into the sounds option under media, switching to transflash, finding the song you want and hitting the menu button on it. Then select set as ringtone.

it acually did work on mine which suprised me cause all other moto phones I've owned that support transflash did not do that but I have been reading that alot of other people couldn't get it to work either. I only had that phone 2 days but I know I was able to do that. Was also able to set my wallpaper using a pic from the transflash, which was also a first for moto

i don't get it:/ maybe it's a firmware issue?

only the motorola E1000, E770, c975, V975, c980, v980 and v3X allows you to use mp3, ringtone and picture ID stored either in phone memory or TF card to be used. there may be others.

whatever formware was on mine let me do that also.

most moto let you use pic for wallpaper, but not mp3, ringtones.

Are there any edits that can be done to let this work? Or, what f/w version allows you to set songs as ringtones from the TF card? I'd really like to be able to do that, and I'm confused about the "ringtone" folder on the card as well then.
