Anyone else here bored with the voicemail alert, it seems the only alert that you can`t change.
I must be able to change it using "file manager" but i cant find the file, has anyone found it ???

Been too lazy to re-activate my voicemail since getting my P800. I guess now is a good time to try.

OK, I have found it, using file manager it`s in c:\systems\data\defaultsounds
The file name is Notifications.mid
I changed the name of it (to do this you have to shut down any apps that could be using it, then go to edit,then attributes to remove the checks from all three box`s because a read only file can't be renamed),
I left the renamed file in there,then brought in a WAV from my own selection, changed the name of that new WAV to Notifications.mid & put it in C:\systems\data\defaultsounds.
I now have a voicemail alert of my choice.

Hi there! I'm using XP with my software and cradle. How would I do the same thing, i think I'm a little lost! Also, I've added a movie trailer and a sound file to my phone and mem stick but they are not showing up but the memory of both devices has increased. how do i find them?

Steve.
