How do I use a MyVerizon ringtone I received in the form of a txt message? The long touch method on the media does not work, btw.

Question

I purchased a ringtone on My Verizon via my computer. They sent me txt message with the media but I can't figure out how to save it as a ringtone. The long touch method doesn't work. It's not anywhere in my media files, and frankly I just joined verizon but they have proven a bit difficult. On thin ice already, this isn't helping.

Have you managed to save it to your phone?  If so, download a file explorer app (like Estrongs file explorer) from the Play Store.  Open up the file explorer app and navigate to the "Download" folder.  Scroll through your downloads to locate the ringtone file.  Select it and use the file explorer's copy or cut function to put the ringtone file in the clipboard.  Back out of the "download" folder to the "sdcard" level.  Then look for a "ringtones" folder.  Select it to open it and view the contents.  Using the file explorer, paste the ringtone file to that folder.  Back out of the file explorer app.  The ringtone will now be available in the "phone ringtone" selection list.
