Hi everybody! I have a k750 vodafone live and I can't use any of my mp3s as a ringtone! Is it possible to change that? with Far maybe?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, apparently you can - Check the FAR thread.

you will need to remove the vodafone branding as well as unlocking.also you can use the sony ericsson DRM packager to protect your mp3 tones.its download able from SE web site.

thanks for the help guys!
how Do I remove the vodafone branding? Is it possible to remove completely all the vodafone content/menu and replace with the original content of k750?

try a mobile repair shop,they should be able to debrand your phone and add the latest firmware and then you will have the original menus etc.remember to save all your pics,tones,contacts etc as these will be wiped from the phone.

I think all you need do is use FAR to edit TPAPRESETCustomcustomize.xml, scroll down to the bottom, find the section titled "Settings and look for :

"<enable-ringtoneplayer-mp3>false</enable-ringtoneplayer-mp3>" and change it to "<enable-ringtoneplayer-mp3>true</enable-ringtoneplayer-mp3>". You'll may find other settings there as well that you may want to enable. To help, my phone is totally unlocked, all my settings are:

<settings>
<low-count-value>4</low-count-value>
<push-wait-time>25</push-wait-time>
<enable-imsi-lock>false</enable-imsi-lock>
<convert-fwlock-to-dcf>false</convert-fwlock-to-dcf>
<enable-mediaplayer-mp3>true</enable-mediaplayer-mp3>
<enable-mediaplayer-mp3-drm>true</enable-mediaplayer-mp3-drm>
<enable-mediaplayer-mp3-drmdm>true</enable-mediaplayer-mp3-drmdm>
<enable-ringtoneplayer-mp3>true</enable-ringtoneplayer-mp3>
<enable-ringtoneplayer-mp3-drm>true</enable-ringtoneplayer-mp3-drm>
<enable-ringtoneplayer-mp3-drmdm>true</enable-ringtoneplayer-mp3-drmdm>
<enable-mediaplayer-aac>true</enable-mediaplayer-aac>
<enable-mediaplayer-aac-drm>true</enable-mediaplayer-aac-drm>
<enable-mediaplayer-aac-drmdm>true</enable-mediaplayer-aac-drmdm>
<enable-ringtoneplayer-aac>true</enable-ringtoneplayer-aac>
<enable-ringtoneplayer-aac-drm>true</enable-ringtoneplayer-aac-drm>
<enable-ringtoneplayer-aac-drmdm>true</enable-ringtoneplayer-aac-drmdm>
<enable-mediaplayer-amrw>true</enable-mediaplayer-amrw>
<enable-mediaplayer-amrw-drm>true</enable-mediaplayer-amrw-drm>
<enable-mediaplayer-amrw-drmdm>true</enable-mediaplayer-amrw-drmdm>
<enable-ringtoneplayer-amrw>true</enable-ringtoneplayer-amrw>
<enable-ringtoneplayer-amrw-drm>true</enable-ringtoneplayer-amrw-drm>
<enable-ringtoneplayer-amrw-drmdm>true</enable-ringtoneplayer-amrw-drmdm>
</settings>

I tried with FAR to edit customize.xml, I changed the "false" to "true" but the option "set as ringtone" in the phone menu is still in fade.

Anyway that's ok there is no problem, the DRM works just fine for me!

Thanks a lot for the help guys!
