Free call tones sprint.
 
I was updating my call tones on sprints website when i notice some of the call tones are free and not only that they dont expire. I dont know if someone else figured this out but check it out. Try this for example. Search Eminem and go the song soldier and you will see for you self.

OHH man. I dont know what to tell you. I just added 9 more songs for free and unlimited. I just added DMX what they want, Dmx you hear me calling................ When you go to the song it says 250 but before you purchase it it says 0.00 dollars and they dont let you preview the song. It works though i am calling myself now. I Hope sprint dont think i am paying for these calltones if they had a malfunction on there site.

I am still at it right now. I have 21 songs now with unlimited subscription that were free. I Wonder if sprint is aware of this. Ohh well. I will go up to 100 free songs i dont care.

Re: Free call tones sprint.
 
Care to share the list of 21 or how to find songs that have this "special"?

Re: Free call tones sprint.
 
I got them so far for eminem, DMX, and Serani. Just search through there songs and add if its says 0.00. It been working good so far. I have had 5 people PM me and thanking me.

Overall I think this is an error on sprints website. I will refuse to pay for if they try to say i have to pay because of website design error.

Anyone else seeing the price and expiration changing for their "purchased" items? A couple of mine have already been modified.
Also, have my calltone set as active and still only hearing ringing when calling it. Guess this is only working correctly for those who had paid calltones working before? Tried on another phone/account too, also waited 10 minutes for it to "apply"

I woke up this Morning and decided to check my bill and i notice that they had a charged me for the Free call tones i added last night. I called sprint and they went inside my content manager and noticed that it said it was free also. They noted my account to give me a credit for the call tones i added. Plus the added 100 free bonus minutes for the inconvience. For those who it didnt work for i can confirm that it work for other people on here.

The charged me 55.00 dollars for 22 calltones. All which had unlimited service not the normal 90 days. They have no choice but to give me a credit now. Thank you sprint for 22 free calltones.

Why not use mp3 trimmer, or the ring tone editor on htc audio manager?

call tones = what the guy who is calling you hears
not you ringtones - what you hear when you get a call

mp3 trimmer isnt that great anyways for RINGTONES.
i want to start the song at 1.3 seconds but mp3 trimmer only uses whole seconds. which sucks :( so 1/4 of the word in the ringtone is cut off :(

jason559 08-26-2009 03:10 PM

Re: Free call tones sprint.
 
They refused to issue a credit until they actually appear on a generated bill. Even left a note on my account stating such. ARGH!

Use Audacity, it will trim to the hair of a second

yeah looks like they are gonna charge me for them...and then they will have to credit my account because the license agreement found in the content manger clearly states the license is $0.00 which is what I agreed to when I purchased them.

tallblazer124 08-26-2009 10:33 PM

Re: Free call tones sprint.
 
For everyone who got the free calltones just call them and they will credit your account at the end of the month. As long as they noted your account its all good. The best part about the situation the terms said unlimited. So they have to keep us with the same calltone as long as we are on sprint. Not bad for 0.00. The cost was just a simple call to customer service so they can note the account.


PS since when did this become a ringtone thread. The best way you should make ringtones is goldwave. Download goldwave to your computer and edit your songs there. You can even have gold wave make u sliding sounds because you can turn the format into a wave file. Goldwave can do anything you need it to do for your ringtone needs.

lol, yeah i did...

although i can't complain since when i originally purchased these "free" calltones that "don't expire" i contacted ecare they removed the unbilled charges (that shouldn't have been there to begin with) and thus i was never charged for them...for some odd reason this just doesn't surprise me that they do in fact expire :D

you know how the saying goes, if it's too good to be to be true... ;-)
