Why is T9 called T9? It's not a very catchy name. Is there some company called T9 making loads of money and hating prawns and collieries?

Ah ha.

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 27 March 2006 15:24 (eighteen years ago) link

yes, well they aren't called T9, I forget the name, but they get a fee for every phone with it installed.

so anyway what should i use as my mp3 ringtone? currently i have beyonce's "check up on it" but i don't like so much.

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Monday, 27 March 2006 16:22 (eighteen years ago) link

i've been on "pon de replay" for months now and i love it.

You boys.

i can't do mp3 ringtones on my phone so i'm limited to what T-Mobile offers me, and it's the best one i've found. what i really want is a man's voice barking "hey! hey! hey! hey!"

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 27 March 2006 16:40 (eighteen years ago) link

You're not limited to what T-Mobile offer you, though. You should be able to download midi files from anywhere (or mmf files or something, if you have a funny phone)

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 27 March 2006 16:43 (eighteen years ago) link

i'll admit i haven't looked into it very hard.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 27 March 2006 16:46 (eighteen years ago) link

the best ringtone is justus kohncke "elan (dub)"

the nokia 8310 is the best phone i think in terms of looks, use etc. why do they always get rid of the good stuff and replace it with crud

You would.

I lost my RAZR last night. All the drunken nights it managed to stay safe, and I lost it at a movie. After many phone calls, it appears unlikely to be recovered. I just spent a bunch of money I don't have to spend on a Samsung t309 that I don't like very much and now I don't have a RAZR. :(((

This is why we shouldn't buy nice things. See: my iPod

I think my pocket might have been picked. Even if it wasn't, no one will give it back.

― Laura H. (laurah), Monday, 27 March 2006 17:41 (eighteen years ago) link

Yea, and if you could get yr SIM card back you wouldn't be locked into ANOTHER 2 YEARS. Fcukers

happy w/ my razr and can operate it quite easily w/ one hand

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 27 March 2006 20:23 (eighteen years ago) link

I want a RAZR for the following reasons:

-Works w/ Cingular
-Has a camera
-Bluetooth (works grebt with iSync)

Either that or the Motorola V551, which seems sturdier.

I'm not a real fan of flip-phones, but these cheapo free-with-the-plan Nokias keep on sucking.

― naus (Robert T), Monday, 27 March 2006 21:02 (eighteen years ago) link

ALL THOSE REASONS = DOZENS OF OTHER PHONES BRO; JUST BUY A GSM PHONE OR WHATEVER CINGULAR USES AND POP YR SIM CARD IN

DONE

You can get replacement SIM cards from your carrier. They'll charge you a fee, I think around $20.

i had a polyphonic "get busy" on my last phone and i really liked that. thinking to stick to dancehall maybe and add some electroish oldschool hiphop stuff. i should really get cracking on this tonight when i get home from work. important quality of life issue here.

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 15:15 (eighteen years ago) link

mine now plays the music of when you get the invincibility in super mario bros.

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 15:39 (eighteen years ago) link

i have verizon and we don't have SIM cards (or at least, no phone I've ever had with them has had one). what determines whether or not you have a SIM card? Carrier or phone?

― kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 15:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Carrier; I think only GSM carriers have them?

― Houdini Gordonii (ex machina), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 16:01 (eighteen years ago) link

you are right. how annoying.

― kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 16:03 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm cell-phone illiterate, so here's a question: is it possible to custom-create one's own ringtone? There's a bit from Topography of the Lungs that I'd like to have my next phone splat at me.

― pixel farmer (Rock Hardy), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 16:04 (eighteen years ago) link

Some phones have ringtone creators on them. It's rather fiddly.

With others, you could make a midi file or mp3 file (depending on what your handset can play) on a computer and then transfer it to your phone either by USB cable or by hosting it somewhere on the web and then pointing the WAP or other browser on your phone at it. If you have such things.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 16:09 (eighteen years ago) link

I use a wav file I bluetoothed as mine

one year passes...

ok dudes, i dropped the razr in the toilet, and im not really all that sorry.

i need a new verizon-capable phone. id like to pay $150 or less (on ebay), but suggest irrespective of price - is anyone super-pumped about their phones? i hated the razr because it was too wide, the button response was poor, the camera had no flash, and it was really vulnerable to water damage (i got a replacement once, when one drop got into it and it blew up). any ideas?

― 69, Monday, 30 April 2007 15:51 (sixteen years ago) link

Hurrah, I finally got round to replacing my razr! D

on't think you'd be interested in my replacement though, it's quite bulky, though it does have a flash, it's a sony ericsson K800i. I learnt my lesson, the only concession I made to looks is that I got the brown one!

― Vicky, Monday, 30 April 2007 16:11 (sixteen years ago) link

pete my phone was free from verizon. it's fine.

hahahah suckers

I have a Razr. I got it free and it's adequate but has some irritations. That said, i only switch it on about twice a week. I hate phones.

― admrl, Monday, 30 April 2007 16:25 (sixteen years ago) link

I like my RAZR, apart from the camera having no flash. Although it take me a while to get used to the texting and searching processes.

― Anna, Monday, 30 April 2007 16:35 (sixteen years ago) link

jon i've heard you talk shit about verizon? or cdma? i don't remember, but what's the issue?

― gff, Monday, 30 April 2007 16:37 (sixteen years ago) link

Best thing about the "RAZR"? The fact that it led to the name of the newer "KRZR"!

― Spencer Chow, Monday, 30 April 2007 18:37 (sixteen years ago) link

theres the RIZR now too. Two Verizon phones ive been diggin on lately are the LG 8700 (its stainless steel!) 6315i.

― chaki, Monday, 30 April 2007 18:42 (sixteen years ago) link

The RAZR is the worse successful phone ever. Verizon deliberately cripples phones (and is CDMA iirc) so you guys won't even get to see your RAZR's bluetooth not work right!

― Catsupppppppppppppp dude ‫茄蕃‪, Monday, 30 April 2007 18:48 (sixteen years ago) link

but you can watch shakira on vcast!

BUT WAHT IS RONG W/ CDMA?? this is question.

I kno Vzn cripples fons, I have a Moto 815 which is a bit bulky but performs really well (an ANTENNA how QUAINT) and was the last generation of their phones to have a Moto UI instead of the mandated cross-manufacturer VZW one that they all have now. This means I can send myself little mp3s in a txt and the phone can save & use them as ringtones, something totally verboten now and forevermore.

Apparently CDMA is only in use in S.Korea as well, and the entire planet is on GSM? Except for, what Germany, which is TDMA? (T-Mobile in this country) how long can that last?

― gff, Monday, 30 April 2007 19:35 (sixteen years ago) link

I lost my RAZR on holiday. It was a good thing. Horrible phone.
