How to Email a Free Ringtone to My Cell Phone
1. Download the necessary software to create a ringtone so it can be emailed to your phone. Click on the 'mpTrim' link listed below (see Resources.) Opt to run the program only. Once the configuration process is complete, mpTrim will open automatically.
2. Create your ringtone. Click on the 'File' tab in the mpTrim navigation menu, and select 'Open.' A dialog window will appear on your screen. Locate the file you want to make into a ringtone, highlight it, and click on the 'Open' button at the bottom of the window. The song will appear in mpTrim. Use the up and down arrows to trim the beginning and end points of your ringtone. These trims will allow you to set the ringtone to start and finish exactly the way you want it to. Save the altered file once you have trimmed it how you want it.
3. Email the ringtone to your phone. The email will be sent to your phone via SMS text messaging. Access the 'FunForMobile Ringtone Uploader' link below (see Resources). When the uploader opens in a new browser window, select your cell phone carrier in the drop-down menu displayed, provide your cell phone number, and click 'Browse' to load your ringtone file so it can be sent to your cell phone. Give the ringtone a title in the final data form and click 'Upload.' The ringtone will be sent to your phone for downloading.
4. Download the ringtone on your cell phone. When the emailed ringtone comes to your phone in a text message, click on its link once you have opened the text message to open it and download the ringtone file. A progress indication bar will appear once your mobile Internet has opened. Once the indication bar is full, the downloaded ringtone will be stored to your cell phone's content manager.
How to Send SMS Using Java
1. Download Mail.jar and Activation.jar (see Resources for links) and save to the Java library directory on your computer's local drive.
2. Start a new Java class in your Java Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and name it 'MyMobileJava.java'.
3. Enter the following Java libraries at the start of your Java class. These libraries include the required Java Mail and Communications API resources and other supporting Input/Output and Internet class libraries for sending SMS text messages.import java.io.*;
import java.net.InetAddress;
import java.util.Properties;
import java.util.Date;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import javax.activation.*;
4. Place the following Java code after the library import statements in order to instantiate the Java class and assign values for the default SMS text messages.public class SMTPSend {public SMTPSend() {
}public void msgsend() {
String username = 'MySMSUsername';
String password = 'MyPassword';
String smtphost = 'MySMSHost.com';
String compression = 'My SMS Compression Information';
String from = 'mySMSUsername@MySMSHost.com';
String to = 'PhoneNumberToText@sms.MySMSHost.com';
String body = 'Hello SMS World!';
Transport myTransport = null;
5. Create Java code to create a new communications session that will then be used to configure the information contained within a text message. This information will then be prepared to be sent. Enter the following Java code in your Java class at the end of the code entered in step four.try {
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.put('mail.smtp.auth', 'true');
Session mailSession = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
Message msg = new MimeMessage(mailSession);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
InternetAddress[] address = {new InternetAddress(to)};
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, address);
msg.setSubject(compression);
msg.setText(body);
msg.setSentDate(new Date());
6. Send the text message by connecting to your SMS host address, saving changes to the message, and then sending the information. To do this, enter the following Java code to finish the Java class.myTransport = mailSession.getTransport('smtp');
myTransport.connect(smtphost, username, password);
msg.saveChanges();
myTransport.sendMessage(msg, msg.getAllRecipients());
myTransport.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}public static void main(String[] argv) {
SMTPSend smtpSend = new SMTPSend();
smtpSend.msgsend();
}
}
How to Get Free Ring Tones for Nextel Cell Phones
1. Create a file on your desktop or someplace where you will be able to easily locate it and label it for your downloads. This will allow you to add and remove ring tones from your phone with ease, without taking up too much memory space on the phone. Name it something easy like 'Ringtones.'
2. Go to mobile9.com and click on the 'Gallery' tab across the top of the page. This site is specific for the Nokia phone models, so all of the ring tones you download should be compatible with your phone. After clicking on 'Gallery,' you will be redirected to the 'Mobile Downloads' page.
3. Select your phone model from the drop-down menu in the highlighted blue tool bar and choose ring tones as the category. Then click 'Go.' You will be taken to a results page that is specific for your model phone.
4. Choose a category from the tag lines listed at the top of the page. There are thousands of results for each phone model, so choosing a tag will help you find what you are most interested in.
5. Click on the ring tone of your choice and wait for the page to load. Click on the preview box, to listen to a preview of your download, and then click on the large green download button on the right side of the page. Wait for the download to finish. It will automatically pop up and start playing in your default music player.
6. Plug your Nextel phone into your computer and then download it from your PC to your device's music file. This process will vary based on your model phone but should be very straightforward once the phone is hooked up. Let the download run and then unplug the phone and set the tone as your default. Now your tone will play every time someone calls.

How to Receive Send an SMS Text With Freeware
1. Open the email application of your choice and create a new email. In the 'TO' address bar input the 10-digit cellular phone number you wish to text. Follow that number with the wireless carrier email text code. For example, if you want to text a person on the Verizon network and their phone number is 555-123-4567 you would input 5551234567@vtext.com. Go to the Email Text Messages website for a full list of wireless carrier email text codes (see Resources). Compose and send your email. The provider will automatically convert it to a text message and send it to the mobile number you entered. When you get a reply, it will come in the form of an email in your inbox. This email will contain the return text. If you want to continue texting back and forth, simply replay to the received email.
2. Use a website like Txt2day or Text'em (see Resources). Just log on to the website, input the number you wish to send a text message to, select the phone number's carrier and type your message. If you want a return text, you must enter your email address. The recipient's text will be received in your email inbox.
3. Download a program for texting. Although many programs make you pay per text message, some free ones are out there. Downloading and installing a program like GoText will allow you to keep an address book of phone numbers in an application and text these numbers from a computer (see Resources). If you wish to receive a return text, you will have to input a valid email address. Your return text message will be received as an email in your inbox.
