Ok... Refer to mightybop's post: 19. December 2004 @ 22:45 This worked just fine for me. laptop 2.4 Intel junk Xp Pro sp2 V220 You can only down load small files to your Phone (IE: pics,mp3,and midi) Like somome esle posted:" The phone only a small amount of memory." Pics 640x480 standard optimized Subsampling NONE The higher the Quality the bigger the file size. Mp3s Must be low bit rate. The lower the bit rate the smaller the file. First, Before you get mad at this Treads' info... Try pluging a USB cable from your comp. to your phone and see if it is detected. If not this is a small USB port on the phone, Be sure you have the cable pushed in the phone... Most Digital Cameras use the same cable... I have dl both pics and mp3 with only one poblem, The cable not be in all the way....
Weldernut suggests that the likely cause of corrupted MP3 files is the USB cable not being properly located in its socket. That was why I am asking if anyone who suffers from corrupted MP3s transferred to the phone via USB has the same problem when downloading from a website. If downloaded files are not corrupted, that means it's not the USB cable or its connections.
where are u getting your mp3's from, im just trying to use the ones i download for everyday purposes.
For tests, I converted a .wav file to MP3. It's a dog barking and is only 3KB. It plays OK on my machine but the phone refuses to play it and maintains it is corrupted.

That makes absolutely no sense. Now, admittedly I have had to search for decent sounding MIDI's of those songs, but they work. :-/
In case you missed it, check out my thread here to see how I got MP3s on my phone. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/141993
I downloaded the 1.23c, but when I tried to install, it asked to insert the CD.. The reason I'm trying to download is that I have a v220 and I can't get the band 1800, which I need the most... My wife's v220 is quadband, 850/1900/900/1800.. My is missing the 1800 band.. Anyone have any ideia how to get it to work??
It appears that AT&T sold the V220 and it was quad band. Cingular sold the V220 and it was supposed to be Tri-band. Although when I check their site it only indicates that the V220 operates on 850/1900 MHz GSM/GPRS networks. My phone indicates that it is tri-band and my cellular provider is Cingular. Also note that the Mobile Phone Tools will not let you change the bands that I'm aware of. That's most likely a BIOS flash type update that would have to be done at the place where you purchased it.
My Cingular allows to change the band.. the only problem is that doesn't have the 1800..I bought on Ebay and unlocked.. I tought maybe with the phone tool I could do something... Thanks for your info
