Older polyphonic phones can't play midi files directy, because most of them could only play back like 4 instruments at a time, therefore, they would need to be converted into a format called pf-midi. Newer phones however (less than 2-3 years old), can usually play normal midi files, and are likely to be able to handle mp3 as well. To get the files to your phone, you could either use a data cable if you got one along with it, bluetooth if your pc has that, and transfer the files with a program from your phone manufacturer. If you didn't get such a program with your phone, you could try their web page,but not all manufacturers have one. Another option is to save the file on the internet and point your phone's browser to the exact link of the file.Originally Posted by blackmage_nuke
I didnt know there were phones that didnt support midis. Unless you could those old monophonic ones.
Edit: and loz's ringtone sounds like a midi to me but if your phone uses a different synthesiser to him (which i highly suspect unless you have the same phone) it would be impossible to get that exact tone without mp3 format
