Motorola T730
Hey all,
A few while ago I got a new cellphone, the Motorola T730.
I asked the salesman if I could download pictures and ringtones, he said that Aliant (which is my provider) didn't have that stuff setup yet, but they were going to soon.
So anyways I purchased the phone. I did see a Media Center on it, which had pictures and sounds pre-programed in it, like samples.
Anyways... months went by and I never thought more of it.
Then my friend gets a new cellphone and starts downloading ringstones and such on Aliant'* network. So I think... ok.. cool... now I can too.....
Except I can't..... the phone doesn't and never will support it.
I can "make" my own ringtones, but I can't download them. Nor can I download or make any images.
.... unless I hack it....
Anyone have one of these phones?
Or does anyone know a good site I can goto to get programs for hacking it?
I've been searching all day, and have found plenty for the T720, but that'* very different from my phone. It runs on Java which my phone doesn't support.
Anyways, just was wondering if anyone else here had that phone, and was as fustrated as I am.

Have you looked into BitPim for your phone? It'* a neat, free, program for messing with your phone. Allows you to up/download data to/from your phopne through a USB data cable.
It'* what I use so I don't have to use up my PIX/TXT Messages

maybe u dont understand what unlocking a cell phone means.... u should look it up... unlocking the cell phone allows u to reprogram it...
most people use this feature so that can use 2 service providers on 1 phone

But, he'* just talking about adding Ringtones and such. That'* not really "Hacking" a phone.
Besides, it'* just terminology. Too many words are used for different things....

Two service providers on one phone?? No, most people use it to get free, illegal service on one phone. www.cellphonehacks.com/ is the place to go. Use the search, the guys there are real ********.
