Now that the system is working and it detects us running a windows based smartphone, calltones are no longer available. Maybe in the future, but as of right now, calltones is not available for us.

Sprint said a while ago that they do not have calltones for phones like ours because we have "business" phones.
Yup. And there is no reason for it except for their marketing of the the TP as a "business" phone. If it were such a business phone then why have Sprint TV and Sprint Radio Available. Those are not "business" apps.

There is nothing to fix. This is does not have to do wiht ANY limitation of the phone itself. If anyone at Sprint tells you that that "Calltones are not supported by WM due to the HW/OS limitations.".... Do not believe and call their bluff. Call tones is a back end fucntion of the network that "tags" your number on the network and reroute the normal "ring" with the calltone. Has nothing to do with the phone itself. Sprint is just too lazy or caught up wit the fact the "smartphones are for business"

Well I say, Smartphones are not just for buisness anymore. It's the power users that makes these phones what they are. These are power devices with added bussiness functionality.
