How do I download ringtones on my Blackberry Pearl?

Question

I just got my pink Blackberry Pearl (Verizon) for my birthday present! I'm trying to figure out how to download ringtones (like from VZW Tones as I have with previous phones). In the user guide it says to go to Media, then click on Ringtones, then click on All Ringtones, then to click the Menu button and that there should be a "Download Ringtones" option there. But there's not. I can't for the life of me figure out how to download ringtones from my phone. I know there are websites where I can get them (which look kind of shady), but I want to figure out how to do it on the phone like I have been able to do with all my other phones. Do blackberry's not have this option like the user guide says? I am so confused! haha.

If anyone can help me figure this out that would be wonderful!

Thanks!

Answer 2

download ringtones to your desktop, install desktop manager, and then all you hafta do is drag and drop.

Answer 3

on my blackberry pearl (AT&T) you have to buy the "blackberry package" that comes with internet and picture texting - as well as the ability to buy ringtones.

if you DO have internet, you should be able to go to the verizon website from your phone and buy ringtones. if not, you'll have to buy the package.

i don't have the package cause i'm 13 and it's like 30 dollars a month for the package, + tax which is about 45 extra dollars on the cellphone bill a month and it's already $500/mo. so my mom said hellll no. haha

but, you can put someone else's sim card (idk if verizon has sim cards) that has a blackberry package and buy ringtones.

good luck!
