You can make your own ringtones or download them from sites like:
http://www.phonezoo.com/
www.mytinyphone.com/
http://www.mobiles24.com/ * my favorite site

You simply highlight the ones you want to copy then press the copy button and it will copy them to the open folder in the opposite window pane.

This concludes my tutorial on how to add ringtones with p2k commander! Hope this helped. Or you can use your phone to download them from verizon and pay $3.99 plus data transfer rate. You don't want to tell them you did this! It's not illegal but remember if you take your phone in for servicing and they find out they may lock your phone in such a way that you can no longer add these ringtones etc. So it's a good idea to remove anything you added before you take your phone in as they are loosing money from this.

My next tutorial will be how to add video files(.mp4) to your W755 phone.


If you cant understand this tutorial on using p2k commander, well your just an idiot!

Ok to add your own videos to your moto W755 phone. First download Any video converter.
You need to convert your movies or music videos etc from mpg, avi or whatever format to .mp4 files! I will not be giving a tutorial on how to use any video converter you can figuire that out yourself! You need MPT4.5.0benu.exe aka Motorola Phone Tools Version 4.5 Google IT!

Once its up and running it will not be able to detect the phone

It will ask if you want to update the phone list click no!


When it ask to manually install click yes!

Transfer your files to your phone or from phone to pc! I recomend transferring only 1 file at a time using this method! It can be slow but it does work!

This concludes this tutorial! PS your videos are under mutlimedia center/Picture & Video / 4. My Videos!


To copy Music to your phone put your .mp3 or .wma files into the MMC(Removable)/My_Music folder!
Tip! If you want to use both versions 4 and 5 of Motorola phone tools install v 4 first and rename the folder in Program files Motorola tools v4 and then v5 for its folder.


If you want to mod the splash screen on your W755 you will need P2K commander and some graphic editing tools. I prefer Jasc paint shop pro. Just navigate to the a/motorola/system folder and there are 2 named customer_open.gif and customer_close.gif just rename them like customer_open.gif_bak that way you can rename and restore them if you need too. All they are is gif files so have fun!
