The Conglomerated NC/Mandofocus Ringtone Thread

[NCFreak]

First of all, I'd like to point out how awesome I am by properly using the search function to find out a whole bunch of info before asking yet another uninformed question. Now, to the thread...

Basically, I was trying to program a stupid ringtone, and I'm too dumb to do it on my own. The ringtone codes I was using from nc.org ("This Side," written by Mandofocus) are for Nokia. I have a Motorola v120. It took me a while to realize this was a problem. I tried converting using Uniring - The Free Universal Ringtone Converter, but that was nothing but a headache.

So, any advice? And, no...my phone model doesn't allow downloads. It HAS to be keyed in.

Mando's code for "This Side" and more found on the Bits & Pieces page @ NickelCreek.org.

Stupid Motorola!! From goofing w/ this dumb phone, I just realized it can only play 3 octaves. Sure, the octaves go from 0 thru 8, but they just repeat after every 3, so..."0c," "3c" and "6c" are all the same stupid note!!. Therefore, if playing all the notes, all the way up the scale, from "0c" to "8b," you're just playing the same 3 octaves 3 times in a row. Why even put them in there??? Why not just be honest and say, "This phone plays only 3 octaves; they are numbered octaves 1, 2 & 3 respectively...???"

I have a motorola too.. they're annoying huh? I managed to get mine to play the Dixie Chicks' Long Time Gone, but I had to key in the notes and it took awhile...

Ringtones? Where'd they go?

[obsessedwithNC]

Um, no... I'm not seeing the ringtone on that page anywhere. ???

[AgentJade]

The old voicemails aren't available anywhere anymore, are they?

I remember when This Side first came out, they had a really cute voicemail available from Zingy. Sara said something like this while "reasons why" chops played in the back: "Hi, this is Nickel Creek. We don't know the reasons why our friend can't come to the phone right now, but please leave a message after the beep."

At the time, I didn't have a cell phone to use it with. I think they're gone now though, aren't they? boooo.

Same here Chris! And since I just got one yesterday, I'm also very curious about that as well

For those of us who can download ringtones, does anyone know where I can find some from NC to download to my phone??

[bluemisk02]

Does anybody know of any cites where I can get a NC ringtone for my LG Verizon Wireless phone???

[lethal12005]

They all seem to have vanished....

[mandofocus]

There actually never have been any official Nickel Creek Ringtones put out. I just used the music and figured it out on my old phone.

[Adyn]

Not exactly true, is that? I seem to recall with they Zingy promotion they had a "this side" ringtone? Or maybe I'm senile. (possible hahah) I remember cause I didn't get it... it was a tad annoying LOL

I still have the message... They wiped my voicemail settings once and I FLIPPED out on the guy at Verizon hahaha. Happily, he was able to fix it

[lethal12005]

I just got a new phone plan and in the process had to get a new phone. Nokia 6010 was free with a 2 yr. contract at Cingular. The lady recommended cingularsounds.com but still no NC ringtones.

I'm still very jealous of those with NC on their voicemail.
