Dark Shadows Ringtones for Sprint PCS Vision Customers
« on: July 03, 2003, 01:30:10 AM »
If you're a Sprint PCS Vision customer, you can add several Dark Shadows ringtones to your cell phone. There is an excellent site for downloading free ringtones at mbuzzy.com, and I've added the DS midis that I have so that they can be used as ringtones.

Here's how it works. Point the browser on your phone to http://mbuzzy.com. You'll get a screen that asks you type in a buzzcode. Here are the DS tunes and their associated buzzcodes:

Dark Shadows Theme - 58263
Quentin's Theme - 58264
Josette's Musicbox - 58267
Joanna - 58268
Ode to Angelique - 58311

Once you enter the code, you basically just follow the onscreen instructions to download the ringtone for your phone. If you need help, point your pc's browser to http://mbuzzy.com and you can read more. There's also loads of other stuff available, and you can also upload your own midi files and then download them as ringers for your phone.

Now that I can take advantage of this, I keep getting this message:

The item you are trying to download is registered to another mbuzzy user and not publicly available.

Did anyone dl a DS ringtone from the site?

Since I originally posted that message, the mBuzzy site has been reconfigured over copyright and filesharing issues. That's what the error is all about.

If they still offer the option of uploading your own MIDI file and having them convert it to a ringtone that you can then access via the site, that would be the way to still get a DS ringtone.

Ah, thank you!

They do still offer instructions for making my own ringtone, so I'm going to give it a shot.  Thanks again!

Yes, I am quoting myself and thanking MsC again.

Converting to the site's specification took a bit of trial and error, but it's done at last!  This instrumental version of Quentin's Theme originally came from Criseyde's wav files (I couldn't find a [free] program that would convert a midi to a wav, but this worked perfectly), and the resulting ringtone sounds great.  To get the finished product, all you have to do is:

* Access the site from your phone at this URL: mbuzzy.com (you don't need the "www")
* Enter the buzzcode 178722
* Follow the prompts, and enjoy!
