How to Create Ringtones for Verizon's LG V Cast Phone for Free
Using a Ringtone Service
1. Visit an online ringtone service that allows you to create custom ringtones, such as Myxer, ToneBee, Phonezoo or Brinked. Many ringtone services allow users to create ringtones for free. Depending upon the service you choose, you may be required to register for a free account before downloading or creating a ringtone.
2. Click on the 'Create Ringtone' or 'Make your Own' option to create a ringtone from a music file on your computer. Depending upon the ringtone service you choose, the custom ringtone option will differ.
3. Upload the music file you want to use as your ringtone. Many ringtone services allow you to upload a variety of popular music formats, including MP3, WAV and WMA. You can upload a song by clicking on the 'Browse' button, choosing a music file on your computer and clicking 'Open.' After uploading your file, the ringtone project screen will open.
4. Select a clip from the song you uploaded by clicking and dragging the highlighted box. Most ringtone services allow you to select a 20- to 30-second song clip. You can preview your clip selection by clicking 'Play.' Experiment with different sections of the song until you're satisfied with your selection.
5. Apply effects, such as 'Fade In' and 'Fade Out' to your clip. Ringtones are often looped when you receive an incoming call. Adding fading effects will provide a smooth transition for the looping process.
6. Click 'Continue' and enter your 10-digit cell phone number. After entering your phone number, click 'Send.' The ringtone will be sent to your phone in the form of a multimedia message. After opening the message, select the 'Save' option and save the song clip as a ringtone.
Using an Audio Editor
7. Download and install an audio editing program, such as Audacity or Adobe Soundbooth, onto your computer.
8. Click on the 'File' tab and select 'Open.' Locate the song you want to use as your ringtone and click 'Open.' The song will be imported into the program, and the track will appear in the editing screen.
9. Select a small clip of the song and make sure the clip is less than 30 seconds. If the clip is more than 30 seconds, you may have trouble saving it as a ringtone on your cell phone. After selecting your favorite song clip, use the 'Trim' feature to remove the remaining audio in the song. Your clip selection will remain on the screen.
10. Click on the 'Effects' tab and add the 'Fade In' and 'Fade Out' effects, which will create a fluid transition when your ringtone loops on your cell phone.
11. Click on the 'File' tab and select the 'Export' option. Name your new ringtone file and save it as an MP3. Depending upon your cell phone model, you can upload the new ringtone to your phone by using a USB cable or send the file to your phone in an email.
