1. Ascertain which ringtone file types are supported by your particular model of cell phone (for example, polyphonic, mp3).
2. Conduct an Internet search for keywords and keyword phrases that identify what you're looking for. Try 'free Motorola ringtones,' or 'free Motorola RAZR v3 ringtones.' Make sure to include the word 'free' in your search.
