Motorola Phone Tools Linux Razr V3
I found one method that worked for me, on an AT&T Motorola Razr V3 without service, after regular bluetooth, and all the other software solutions (Motorola Phone Tools, BitPim, etc) failed. You WILL need a bluetooth-compatible phone, tablet, or computer/laptop in order to make this work, but it's a different way to access the bluetooth features.Step 1: You'll need to download Motorola Device Manager (just Google search it, should pop up on Motorola's support pages). This will probably not be enough on its own, but it will give you the drivers your PC needs to recognize the phone. After installation, check in Windows device manager and see if the phone is listed under 'Modems.'
If it is, then you have the correct driver, and we can proceed to step 2. If not, try installing the other two phone programs mentioned (Motorola Phone Tools or BitPim), as they should contain the drivers as well.Step 2: On your Razr, press the top center menu button, and navigate to your pictures folder (under 'My Stuff' on my phone). Then, highlight one of your pictures, and press the menu button again.
Select 'Mark' if you just want to move a few pictures, or simply select 'Mark All' if you have a lot. You can also press the '0' key to quickly mark each picture as you highlight it. After marking the files, press the menu button again, and select 'Move Marked Files.' You should see an option called 'Look For Devices'.

If you are unsure how to do this.Google it or look at the manual, as it's different for each device. Once the device is in discovery mode, wait a few seconds, and then select the 'Look For Devices' option on your Razr. It should see your device after a few moments of searching. At this point, your other device will probably ask you for permission to allow the connection.allow it.
Wait a bit, don't let your other device fall asleep, and when nothing is moving on either device, you're done. Via USB Cable1. Turn on your RAZR. From the main menu screen, choose 'Settings' 'Connection' 'USB Settings.' Select the 'Default Connection' option and choose 'Memory Card.'

Transfer ringtones created in to a Motorola Razr in Linux using. This article will outline how to get moto4lin on an Ubuntu Breezy system and transfer files to the Motorola RAZR v3 using a mini-usb cable.I had to compile, an alpha motorola filesystem viewer, to transfer files through USB.Install the compiler, development libraries, and download the required files : $ sudo aptitude install g libusb-dev libqt3-headers$ wget wget tar zxvfj moto4lin-0.3.tar.bz2$ tar zxvf p2kmoto-0.1-rc1.tar.gzCompile and install p2kmoto and moto4lin. I like to compile using my home directory as the prefix so when my OS goes haywire I can recover the files I've custom compiled.: $ cd p2kmoto-0.1$./configure -prefix=$HOME/local && make && make install$ cd moto4lin-0.3$./configure -prefix=$HOME/local && make && make installNow plug up your phone and execute moto4lin as root (make sure /local/bin is in your PATH). You should be able to click the Connect/Disconnect button.
At this point the filesystem should be available. RingtonesNext the ringtones have to be created. The Motorola RAZR V3 happens to support mp3 ringtones, however they have to fit the following criteria in order to work properly: File TypeSampling FrequencyBit DepthMono/StereoBit-rate (kbps)MP344.1kHz16Mono64MP324kHz16Stereo40MP324kHz16Mono40MP316kHz16Stereo40MP316kHz16Mono32That will make more sense once we install audacity and start a new project. We'll also need the mp3 encoding library later, so we can go ahead and download and compile that too. $ sudo aptitude install audacity$ wget tar zxvf lame-3.97b2.tar.gz$ cd lame-3.97$./configure -prefix=$HOME/local && make && make installNow run audacity. Select a project rate of 44100Hz (at the bottom) and click 'New Audio Track' in the 'Project' menu. This is where you'll paste your sound clip.
In the same window, open your the WAV file of that mp3 you're itching to hear on your phone. I used the audacity Trim function in the Edit menu to get the part of the track I wanted to be a ringtone. Then hit CTRL-A to select all of the track and CTRL-C to copy it. Then click back over to your empty audio track and hit CTRL-V to paste the audio into your Mono 44.1kHz track.
Now we have to set the proper MP3 encoding bittrate. Choose Preferences from the File menu and '40' as the bittrate. Now, click 'Export as MP3' from the File menu. Audacity will prompt you to tell it where your lame mp3 encoding library is. Point to the appropriate file, hit Ok and the export MP3 window should be available.

Tell audacity where to save the file and voila, you've made an MP3 Ringtone.Almost there. Now if your phone is still hooked up, go to moto4lin, connect to your phone, and click on the 'audio' directory within the mobile's filesystem. Click upload, then select the ringtone. Next, delete the two Motorola database files 'MyToneDB.db' and 'TempToneDB.db' from the audio directory. I'm not exactly sure what these files do, but I do know that they will not allow you to 'Attach as Ringtone' or allow you to select your MP3 from the 'Calls' menu within the RAZR. Hold down the red disconnect button to turn off the phone, then turn it back on.At this point, make sure the phone is not set to Silent or Vibrate. Go to Audio from your 'My Stuff' icon and select your ringtone.
Then hit menu (dot) button above the select pad to bring up the menu options. Select 'Apply as Ringtone.' Finally, ask someone to call you.Thats it. Homebrew ringtones on the Motorola RAZR V3. Don Says:I’ve successfully compiled both moto4lin and p2kmoto, but have had no luck so far with my pebl u6.
I’m not even sure it’s supported.In moto4lin, I’ve changed the settings to /dev/ttyACM0 (which my computer does recognise when it is plugged in) but when I click connect it says “phone is busy. Try again.” and then “unable to connect.”I followed your link and directions on setting up kmobiletools, and it successfully read my phone, accessed the phone book and SMS, and as much fun as that is, it doesn’t help me connect with moto4lin.So I’m not sure where to go from here, if I can even go anywhere as it is. Has anyone ever gotten a pebl to work yet? Jay Turpin Says:If your having problems connecting as P2K, try this recommendation found on:Try putting in a bogus number in the Settings – Preferences – AT Product ID. Something like 1234.That did the trick for me.Also, you need to fix the installation instructions to this:sudo aptitude install g libusb-dev libqt3-headerswgetwgettar jxvf moto4lin-0.3.tar.bz2tar zxvf p2kmoto-0.1-rc1.tar.gz#Compile and install p2kmotocd p2kmoto-0.1sudo./configure –prefix=/usr/local && make && make install#Compile and install moto4lincd./moto4lin-0.3qmake && makesudo make installThat fixed a couple of the problem I encountered on a fresh Edgy installation. Morphic Says:Also wanted to mention that moto4lin can now be installed via aptitude or apt-get. Says:Hi, I just tried to use your amazing tool (on Fedora 7 through rpm installation).I reached to connect and upload the mp3 ringtone on a RAZR v3i (and delete the two db files as you told).But in spite of this I can’t see any new file under the “sounds” menu even after a restart.
It seems that db files are recreated after the phone restart, and it seems that they keep the same size.– Is case of the mp3 file name important?– If mp3 encode frequency is not exactly as you told, may mp3 file not appear in menu?Sorry for my english and thank you for any help. Megamustache Says:Ok guys,I’m running Gutsy but I started at the top of this page (after hours tracking down other possibilities). Never did get a good compile, too many no’s and unavailables.I did the get-apt referenced Sep 3, 07, followed the directions and now my V3 (G?) is recognized but.OMG.
Took the battery out to see which version I have and after turning it back on it works. At least the files are being read. Hot dog guys, you don’t know how good if feels after wasting six hours on this I’m absolutely ecstatic. I can skip the mood meds tonight!!!!
