Hello,

Probably a dense question this but have I missed somewhere in the documentation or in playing with the phone a way of changing the alert tone?

Ie the message / mms / email ring tone?

I can't seem to find the option by playing with the phone or reading the manual.

Cheers

start > settings

under the "personal" tab, go to sounds & notifications. then go to "notifications" tab

the different events are there, you can configure the sounds for each one

hope that helped!

If you wish to use a custom tone you will need to copy them into the windows folder as opposed to the ringtones folder, which I think is only for call alerts.

Thanks for the above answers, I'm begining to feel like a bit of a moron now but I've got to ask...

Where is the setting for ring duration? My phone always seems to ring off before I get to it!

Sorry for the foolish questions

Cheers again

Press the green button to open the Phone>Menu>Options>Services>Highlight Call Forwarding>Get Settings

The longest you can set is 30 seconds, which is perfect for me  :)
