Hi everyone!

Here is my situation: I had the LG VX8100 with Verizon for a while and one of its built-in Ringtones (Ringtone 7) really grew on me. Then I went to the VX9100 (still Verizon) and was upset to find that that ringone I loved was not available, and they (store) told me there's no way to get it.

So, I've downloaded BitPim and I have the USB data cables for both phones. I am able to browse the "Filesystem" folder, but I can't see where the Ringtone I want is hidden. Unlike the pictures and the five sample MIDIs, the set of something over a dozen Ringtones is buried I think in the mess of files. From poking around, I'm guessing that they are somewhere within the "brew" folder, but I can't figure it beyond that. Did they mash them all together and only the phone knows how to separate them?

So, does anybody know how to extract those original ringtones, or know of a way to get that same one from the VX8100 phone? I tried recording, but it sounds like when I was a kid holding a cassette tape recorder up to my parents "hi-fi" to capture a Survivor song off the radio! :-)

Thanks in advance for any tips, help, or advice!

The other way is to have a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter. Plug one end in the phone, the other into your computer and record the sound as your play it. Then convert to mp3. Of course you must have the old phone still.
