Hi, I just bought the LG VX6000 as well. It is easy to add jpop ringtones to this phone. You just need to find a midi file for the song you want and make sure it is smaller than 30kb. (I used Utada Hikaru's "Distance" and shortened it to 26kb.) Then you just email the midi (*.mid) as an attachment to [email protected]. (Where 0005551212 is your cell phone number. When you recieve the message, just save it to "my media" and set it as a ringtone or whatever. You can even use some of midi available on this site. Hopefully that helps. (^_^)/

Matrixm.com worked on mine.
But I don't think that site is up and running anymore... Sweat

Check out http://www.myphonefiles.com

It's free. And there's more of a selection of ringers and wallpaper.

Only thing is that the Japanese song-type ringers are not as much available as on Matrixm.com

I got a Sprint phone and it's been working for me.
-As long as your phone isn't ancient or anything, it should be able to work. Doesn't hurt to try 'cause it's free anyway.
Hope it works for you!

For downloading poly ringtones,

1) go to your own Nokia country website then select your model then the you will pay the ringtone that you have download thru your phone bills.

2) Go to this website http://wap.la-kopi.com/index.wml. You need to have WAP services on your mobile phone. Through WAP services provided by your network service provider, you may access to the bookmark that I have given to you VIA GPRS. As for the charges, it will depend on how your network service provider charge you.

3) You buy the connection wire from Nokia to connect your mobile phone to the computer. Then you may transfer your composed melody from your computer to your mobile.

4) Check the newspaper for poly ringtones provider. Charges may vary between different providers.

As for wallpaper:

If your PC has infared red services, you can transfer your pictures from your computer to your mobile.

Or if you have WAP services, you may download wallpapers from the bookmark that I have mentioned above.

Hope this will helps you.

Hmm..if you have a composer menu in your ringtone setting try this link for "beautiful life" ring tone

http://www62.tok2.com/home/jringtone/group/bz_konya.htm

For J-drama stuff and other Jpop

http://go.to/baka-ring

However, that site consists of those who have composer menu in your ringtone setting

Oh, maybe your phone (gomen na) is "ancient".

But I don't really know what your phone looks like. Is it the one with the blue iluminated buttons and the color pic/screen?

I have the Sanyo 5300 and the 8100.

From Yahoo! News:

How Spammers Are Targeting Mobile Phones in Asia
By Doug Young and Yukari Iwatani Kane

HONG KONG/TOKYO (Reuters) - If you thought your spam problems couldn't get any worse, check your mobile phone.

Cellphones are becoming the latest target of electronic junk mail, with a growing number of marketers using text messages to target subscribers in Asia.

Mobile phone spam has yet to approach anything like the volume of the e-mail variety, but the problem is growing in a region where the average user sends as many as 10 SMS (short message service) messages a day.

"SMS spam is certainly something that people are focusing on, particularly in markets like Japan where it is a common problem," said Jeff Bullwinkel, a spokesman for Microsoft Corp, which is spearheading a worldwide anti-spam campaign. "It's big in markets where mobile communications are prevalent."

Mobile phone companies were reluctant to talk about the trend, but evidence of the problem abounded on the Web site of NTT DoCoMo, Japan's biggest mobile phone company.

The site carries cautionary words about a junk message regarding the need for B-negative blood for a child's operation, and instructions to forward a chain-mail or face financial consequences.

The phone company also warns of messages claiming to come from DoCoMo (news - web sites) asking people to send money to a particular bank account.

Individual users face difficulty blocking such messages because of their random origins, although DoCoMo lets users set accounts to receive only messages from specified sources.

SMS spammers in Japan typically find their prey by generating at random the e-mail style addresses used for text messaging in the country, a DoCoMo spokesman said.


LEGAL ACTION

DoCoMo -- whose users send and receive 10 messages a day on average -- is fighting SMS spam through measures such as blocking huge quantities of messages that lack specified recipients, he added.

It is also taking legal action, and has cut off 2,173 lines because of spam abuse and sought damages in some cases.

Text messages are big money spinners for mobile operators, reaping profit margins of 60 to 80 percent, so the networks can benefit financially from such spam even as they fight it.

But for users, SMS spam has the potential to become a big headache in Asia, where short messaging has become a way of life for many. Marketers have noticed the trend and increasingly use the medium as a tool for their trade, analysts said.

The Philippines leads the region in SMS use, with cellphone users sending an average 252 messages per month, according to marketing information group TNS. Singapore, China and Japan are the next biggest users.

Mobile phone users in China sent a whopping 10 billion messages during last month's eight-day Lunar New Year holiday, or 7.7 for every one of the country's 1.3 billion people.

Marketers like the immediacy and quick attention SMS messages typically receive from users, said Chi-wing Chan, regional director for telecommunications and technology at TNS.

He said text messages from retailers offering discount "coupons" are already common, particularly in Singapore, and can even be tailored to activate when, for example, a network identifies that a subscriber is close to destinations like shopping malls.

He added that SMS messages -- be they spam or legitimate -- also tend to receive immediate attention in Asia.

"People like to receive messages," he said. "They think it's cool. When you get an SMS message you deal with it immediately, but for e-mails it just feeds into your e-mail box."
