Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Cingular / March 2006Copy ringtones and picture from one phone to another
I'm retiring a Samsung x427m and using a new Samsung x495 which I bought on eBay. (Moved the SIM card from one to the other, and it works fine.) Can the local Cingular store (or somebody) copy my background picture and my ringtone to the new phone? Ringtone no (Samsung may have software & cable) IF the ringtone is not copywrited. You should be able to email the graphic file. The simplest way would be to send it to another phone or email address, switch the SIM card to the new phone, then send it back.

That's how I did my motorola. I don't recall having that option on the Samsung, but it's worth a try! You can only copy the numbers on a sim card, the ringtones and pics have to be switched threw the computer. the code readers at cingular do not transfer anything but the numbers. you can send the pics to your new phone using MMS messaging or email to your home computer then download to the new phone. :) :smart: mc Wrote: > > can't you put the sim back in the old phone>copy pics to the sim>put > sim > > in new phone >copy to phone.

Sorry, I've never sent an MMS message. I gather this is a larger type of text message and that it does not require mobile Internet access.
