Free Ring Tones

Free Ring Tones Often Not Really Free

Getting free ring tones is not as easy as it used to be. Of course, all the ring tones you will find in this section are free but, carriers often cripple their cell phones to block free ring tones downloads.

Fortunately, there are still a certain number of options to get 100% free ring tones, explained in the pages below. Infrared transfer, Bluetooth, Memory card transfer or USB cable can all allow free ringtone download from a computer to a cell phone. The “Articles & Subjects” section below explains how to get free ring tones for each major cell phone brand.

Free ring tones never really seem to be free. You can sample up a storm on the mp3 ring tones and the polyphonic ring tones. Wallpapers, ringtone rippers and complimentary access to unlimited ring tones, no subscription required! Where is the free that was promised? With a little time invested, you can score those ringtone freebies.

Unpaid bloggers and forum users will give you a free ride on their homemade ring tones. If you are a fan of classical music, those songs are free of copyright and are easier to get a hold of for ring tones. Movie music, anime ring tones and/or cartoon ring tones have a good little fan base you can work with.

There are genuine sites out there that have thousands of free ring tones. If the homepage is trumpeting the unlimited downloads from thousands of artists, albums and genres but then has the bottom of the page covered in small print, skip it.

If the page starts out asking for your mobile number, or your email address so they can send your amazing free ring tones membership materials out to you, skip it. That also saves you time and precious minutes using your phone to access the websites to download the ring tones, making them not so free.

When using your phone to get free ringtone content, you will need to have a phone that is compatible with wireless content downloads. GPRS lets your phone start a wireless connection to download your ring tones.
