1. Once you have transfered the MP3's into the Audio folder and disconnected the cable etc.
2. Make sure your phone is out of the silent mode.
3. In the phones menu go to "3.Profile"
4. Select the "Outdoor" option or whichever you prefer from the list and then go down to "Personalise"
5. From the list select "Ringtone" and then select "Download"
6. Select the "Audio" folder and then just choose whichever MP3 you want and then just save it as a ringtone by pressing the top left button
hope that helps

Got it working now, it appears I was using the wrong profile
Thanks for the help

ahhh !!! the phone will only play mp3 files, so you will have to convert them from wma to mp3 using conversion software.
P.S i have PM'd you some software that is quite good and is free
Thanks

Re: Lobster 575 USB Data Cables
I'm on also xp and don't get that convert audio file option either.
I got my new battery and my cable this morning and the cable works brilliantly. I'm so happy!

Re: Lobster 575 USB Data Cables
No joy for me i'm afraid! First they promised a data cable within 7 - 10 days with no joy but a froogle link to a site that doesn't sell them (?), then an apology sent on the 5th of this Month that they had new stocks and i will recieve one within 7 days. You can all guess the outcome
Why lie to me? If they can't source the cables for a phone that they sold me months ago then i can only assume they are incapable of running a business and i would advise any other potential virgin mobile/media customers to stear well clear.

good luck, i was in the same situation as you until i came across the thread on here, emailed Virgin and ended up getting it around 6 weeks later...for free, works just like a plug and play device, no need for any software or anything

Re: Lobster 575 USB Data Cables
sorry to hear about that.
Ring up Virgin Mobile and just be really firm with them and tell them all the hassle and messing about you've been put through by them already and demand one!!!
Having said that, i managed to get one after a couple of emails. But i think a firm phone call should do the trick
Good luck

Re: Lobster 575 USB Data Cables
The data cables are worth more than the actual phone on eBay !!!
