Phone settings

You can customize phone settings, such as the ring type and ring tone 

to be used for incoming calls, and the keypad tone to be used when 

entering phone numbers.

To change the ring tone

1. 

From the Phone keypad, tap 

Menu > Options > Phone tab.

2. 

In the 

Ring tone list, tap the sound you want to use.

Tip

To use custom 

*.wav, *.mid, *.mp3, or *.wma files as ring tones, use 

ActiveSync on your PC to copy the file to the /Windows/Rings folder on 

your device. Then, select the sound from the Ring tone list. For more 

information about copying files to your device, see ActiveSync Help on 

your PC.

To change the ring type

You can change the way that you are notified of incoming calls. For 

example, you can choose to be notified by a ring, a vibration, or a 

combination of both.

1. 

From the Phone keypad, tap 

Menu > Options > Phone tab.

2. 

In the 

Ring type list, tap the desired option.

To change the keypad tone

You can change the tone you hear when entering a phone number on 

the keypad. If set to Long tones, the tone is heard continuously for as 

long as the number on the keypad is pressed. Use this setting if you 

are having trouble accomplishing tasks that rely on tones from your 

phone such as accessing messages from an answering machine. If set 

to Short tones, the tone is heard only for one or two seconds. If set to 

Off, no tone will be heard.

From the Phone keypad, tap

Keypad list, tap the option you want.
