    In my memorystick there is a MP3 folder,but you can put MP3's in any folder you like.
    Anyway,I have never seen the message"files are not drm protected".If a file is not drm protected,you can listen to it but you just can't use it as a ringtone.
    This is common for all vodafone live devices.
    Are you sure this is a V800?Maybe it is a 802SE(Japan version which not allow you,as the white paper says,to listen to not drm protected mp3 files).You better contact with SonyEricsson servise in your country.

        Well,open the program;click "file"(on the upper left side)and select "add files".Then, select the MP3 or WAV files you whant.Click again on the"file"and select "create drm content".A message saying that files are now protected appears.The protected files that are now "*dm" files are stored in a DRM file which is automatically created.Copy the *.dm files to your memory card using the USB cable.Then you can set this files as ringtones.

                In order to check what is going on,I sent the same mail to me.A barrier and an alert message from the security wall of the internet explorer appears.But,I click on the yellow place(which always appears at the same time whith that alert message on the upper part of my screen) and I open the archive.If I only knew where to find this program in the web!But I just have it because of an unknown friend,who sent it to me via an email.I have sent it to you again,good luck!

                  This phone is the root of evil right?!As far as I know,in general you can't send "exe" files via mail,that's why I changed "exe" to something else.I'll try again.Unforunately the program is quite big to send it to you via MMS!!(about 950kb)I hope next generation mobiles will support MMS up to 1Mb.

                      It´s big, it´s ugly (what´s with that speaker placed right in front?) and I really hate too mahy moving parts (rotating lenses). Can it play video fullscreen, anyway? The only thing good about it is the battery, wich rocks for a 3G handset.

                        Hi, i currently have the sony ericsson s710a with cingular. Does anyone know if this one is better than the s710a? (well probably yea..haha) but how would the reception be with cingular? Since this phone is originally made for Asia and Europe right? Then the phone won't be able to connect to the network as much in America? Thanks in advance!

                          Can you please email me on thesexyshagking@hotmail.com i don't have your email.
                          No the Sharp 902 is clearer, better camera, Better quality and Sexier and pulls more chicks than this phone will ever do!!

                            Sorry,just forgot to write my name!!So,Sharp 902 is smaller lighter and more handsome?!
                            That's a very interesting opinion!!
                            Definately,design is a subjective matter, but Sharp 902 looks at list cheaper than V800(I say"looks").
                            For me the most annoying in Sharp is that there is not a slide show opsion.When you open a JPEG file you have to go back to the list,go to the next file,wait until the phone open the file...(it takes time!)and go back again for the next picture.
                            If you want the DRM program in orger to set MP3 and WAV files as ringtones to your mobile(The same limitation appears also in Sharp),JUST SEND ME AN EMAIL.

                                Timmy:Didn't you see that phone before you deside to buy it?Didn't you see that phone in the shop?You definitely did!!So why are you grumble about the size of the phone??Anyway, that phone is one of the smaller 3G handsets and even if it is rather big it is very stylist!And what is you problem with the camera?If sometimes there is a lot of noise in the indoor shoots,you'd better activate night mode and slow down the lightness(up to -2)using the key in the left side of the phone.This will give you better resultsThen with your PC program(I'm using the ACD SYSTEMS) you can win the noise,if there is some.In the outdoor shoots don't use night mode and increase the lightness up to +2.The camera is good but is a CMOS not a CCD,so you have to play with the lightness.On the other hand,CCD cameras usually overdo with the lightness and the colours which is also a disadvantage.

                                    I'm very impressed with my phone in general but I think the calendar is archaic. I cannot believe that it doesn't support annual recurring events (my Siemens S55 was far superior). Is there a Java application that can address this problem?

                                      I got this phone a few months back and ive noticed that there is no way you can increase the sound. It is only loud if you buy ringtones from Vodafone Live. Bit of a rip off. Can anyone help ?? Thanx
