If you want to put personal ringtones on your iMate kJam, then I thought I would show you with this. It would appear that a lot of people are coming to this site after reading about getting an iMate kJam, and I just wanted to help you out.
This is for those people who want to put one of the following types of ringtones onto their phone:
– Midi Ringtones
– Polyphonic Ringtones
– MP3 Ringtones
– WMA Ringtones
And, this doesn’t matter if you’ve got free ringtones, cheap ringtones or EVEN really expensive, over the top, over priced ringtones. Heck, I’ll even show you how to make YOUR OWN ringtones soon with Windows XP.
Anyway, here’s how to put your ringtone onto your iMate kJam:
1 – Connect your iMate kJam to your PC/Laptop with the USB cable
2 – Open up Windows Explorer
3 – Find your ringtone
4 – Copy your ringtone (Ctrl-c, for example)
5 – In Windows Explorer, go to “Mobile Device”
6 – Select “My Windows Mobile-Based Device”
7 – Go to “Application Data – Sounds”
8 – Paste Your Ringtone here (Ctrl-v, for example)
You can unplug your kJam now
9 – On your kJam, go to “Start => Settings => Phone”
10 – Select your Ringtone from the “Ring tone:” drop down list
Just remember, you could just have the coolest ringtones around. 😉

Hi…I followed the instructions above but when I select the ringtone from the drop down menu and click ‘play’ to test it, nothing happen…
Hi. What type of file (example: Midi or MP3) did you put onto your phone?
Hi… Thanks for the tips… but What about people working with Apple??? Do you know how to do it??? I can’t seem to do it right at all. Tried even with bluetooth. Someone sent me a ringtone but IT JUST DOESN’T WORK! Thanks for ur help!
I’ve never used a Mac or anything before so I’m not sure how you would get it onto your phone. Do you have Infra Red on your Apple? As long as you get it onto your phone, then you can just “right-click” the file (pressing with the stylus and holding till you get the right-click menu) and selecting “Set as ringtone” or something similar…
thanks for the ringtone instruction!!!! helped a lot :))
Hi,
do you know how i can set different ringtones for different callers – assuming they are in my contact list?
thanks a lot
You can go into your contact list, click on your contact, and then at the bottom right, click on “Menu” -> “Edit”.
Then scroll down until you see “Ring tone:”. Clicking there will drop down your list of available ringtones…
You can also upload the ringtone or wallpaper via bluetooth from your computer ot to other phones.

Hi Sarat.
– Have you installed Microsoft’s ActiveSync on your computer? You will need to “browse” you phone via the computer.
– To get your free ringtones, click on the link in the article titled “Free Ringtones – You already have them”. Then you can follow the instructions above for copying it to your phone.
Let me know if that helps.
