    Personally i wouldnt risk it. Instead go to some cell phone spot and pay the 20 bux or what it is.

    Thats just me anyways

    i think the best way is to just go to a cellphone dealer that unlocks phones and they'll help you out. i know u dont wanna pay to unlock it but at least this way u aint struggling soo hard to unlock it. i got one of my boys tryna to help me unlock this phone, when i get somewhere with that, i'll let u know jongjong24...

    1st: The Nokia 6265i isn't a GSM phone so it can't be unlocked. It's a CDMA phone, so I would assume you have it with Telus.

    Just so you know all of the phone carriers are locking up media content that is uploaded/downloaded to phones for "rights purposes" but I think they're just doing it to make more money.

    What you have to try to do, and I'm not sure who does it, is get the software on the phone changed...normally called "flashing". You'd be putting the original Nokia 6265i "flash" on that doesn't have the disabled mp3 ringtone, and crippled bluetooth features.

    Good Luck!

    i got the same phone and had the same problem, there is no easy way of doing it but what i did to get the ring tone of my choice, i changed the mp3 tone into a 3gp video format with the pro version of apples quicktime. then u can set ur ring tone to video tone, only down side is that you wont be able to see the pic of the caller if you attached pics to the caller.

    this is why i recommend paying more for an unlocked GSM phone, instead of getting something from rogers/bell etc.

    u not have alot more selection in terms of phones, but save on hassles like this. Apparently using mp3s as ringtones is illegal, unless u buy the ringtone and hence the right to play it on portable media (cell phone). This @#%$ ow companies like jamster make their $$$.

    This is a shot in the dark but meh ill give it a try.

    Anyone on here got the software for the Palm Treo 650 for custom ringtones? I've been lookin for it for awhile instead of paying $22 for it.

    Anyone got it or know how to get it ?

    If im not mistaken its more of a unbranding thing. Since Rogers wants all ringtones to be bought they have restricted custom ringtones, I know they did this with the new Sony's and a friend of mine got the w810 unbranded and that solved the problem being that it set it back to the default settings. Meaning you can use custom ringtones without buying them.
