2. Copy your ringtone files to the ringers subdir.

3. Insert the card back into the phone and start BitPim.

4. Retrieve Ringtone data from the phone:

   1. Menu Data -> Get Phone Data.

   2. Check on Ringtone, and click on OK.

5. Write Ringtone data back to the phone:

   2. Check on Ringtone and Replace All, and click on OK.

6. All of the ringtones stored on both the phone and the card are now available for assignment.

Step 3 through 5 should be repeated for all changes made to the ringers subdir.

Ringtones stored on the miniSD card will not show up in the Ringers tab, since BitPim does not add or delete those files.
