How to Get Free Ringtones on Virgin Mobile Phones
1. Select a website that offers free ringtone downloads (see Resources). These sites don't make any money off the ringtones downloaded, but do make money from the flashy ads and banners displayed in their side bars and across the top of your page. These sites are safe as long as you stay on the one site and don't enter any personal information or sign any virtual contracts.
2. Search for and select the ringtone you want to put on your Virgin Mobile phone. You can search by song title, music genre or type of sound.
3. Choose how you want to receive your ringtone on your phone. If you have unlimited text and pix messaging through Virgin Mobile, you can send it directly to your cell phone in a text message free of charge. You may or may not have to select 'Virgin Mobile' as your wireless carrier to send it to your phone via text message. If the site offers truly free downloads, you won't have to worry about reading through a terms of service or clicking 'I agree' to anything prior to sending the ringtone to your phone or downloading it. If you don't have unlimited text or you're uncomfortable entering your cell phone number, download it to your computer via direct download or by sending it to your email address as an attachment.
4. Connect your phone to your computer via a USB cable. If Virgin Mobile didn't give you one when you purchased your phone, you can buy one to fit through your Virgin Mobile store or purchase one online.
5. Open the file on your computer and click and drag it into the data storage area of your phone. Wait for the transfer to finish and safely eject it from the USB drive.

How to Identify Who a Phone Number Belongs To
Online resources
1. One of the best free phone number identifiers on the Internet is at WhitePages.com. This Web site offers a 'reverse lookup' resource where users can type in a 10-digit phone number and receive useful information with the click of a button. If the number is public, the name to whom the number is registered as well as the person's address will pop up. If the number is private, the site will provide the user with the following information: a) whether the line is a land or a cell, b) in what city the line is registered, c) a map of the area in which it's registered.
2. In the United States, you can text the number about which you want to inquire to 566587 (LOOKUP). The service will provide you with registered name of any user, including often unlisted cell phones. The cost is $1.99 per lookup (charges will appear on your billing statement) and standard message and data rates apply. There is no charge if they don't find a match.
3. If you need to identify a phone number for health or safety reasons, your local police station will be able to assist. They have special access to resources civilians don't and are able to use their enforcement to find such information. Of course, they will only do so in a challenging situation.

How to Send Ringtones to Verizon Cell Phones
1. Depending on whether you want to send ringtones to your Verizon cell phone from your computer or from another cell phone, there are different steps you must take. First we will look at how to send ringtones to your cell phone from a computer.
2.
First you need to locate the ringtone you want to send from your computer to your Verizon cell phone. Ringtones can come in different file formats, but the most common is .mp3. See the resources below for links on how to create ringtones from existing .mp3 files. Once you locate the sound file, open up your email account. Compose a new message and attach the picture you wish to send. Now, for the recipient's email address, enter your 10-digit phone number followed by '@vzwpix.com'. So if your phone number was (123) 456-7890, then you would type '1234567890@vzwpix.com' into the recipient field of your email client. You will soon get a picture/sound message on your cell phone. Then save the ringtone onto your cell phone!
3.
If you have a sound or ringtone you want to send from your cell phone to a Verizon cell phone, that is also fairly simple. While it may differ from carrier to carrier or cell phone to cell phone, just select the sound/ringtone you want to send. You should be able to bring up an options menu and select 'Send file'. Then enter the phone number you'd like to send it to, and voila! Be warned that many Verizon cell phones don't let you send custom ringtones, but do let you send recorded sounds.
