The built in applications on the device can't do what you are wanting, but with the vast many of third party software applications that are available for the palm os, I'm sure there is a program that will. I believe this program will

I however don't use it and you may want to double check with the vendor of the software, but it does say on the specs
Set custom MP3 ringtones for sms and voicemail notifications
Now that could mean two things to me, One it could mean you can set a custom mp3 ringtone for all sms messages, or you can set custom mp3 ringtones for individual ringtones.
I'd also suggest taking a look at mring it also seems to do what you are looking for

  • Verizon Palm Centro ringtone issues

    I have A Verizon Wireless Palm Centro and I have some songs on Ptunes I want to use as ringtones. I'm not getting a card anytime soon so can someone just please find a FREE software for me that will turn the songs either on my computer to MIDI files or whaterever will work with my phone. thnx!
    Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

    Songs can easily "DL" right to your phone from your computer.  It's all explained clearly in the User Guide that ships with every device (on the Installation Disk in pdf format), and is also available online at Palm.com.:
    First Open Pocket Tunes on your phone, then Windows Media Player.  When both programs are up and running, plug in your HotSync cable, but do not press the button to Hotsync!
    Windows: Open Windows Media
    Player on your computer. On the Sync
    tab, select Set Up Sync. Select Finish.
    In the Sync tab, select the files and
    playlists you want to sync manually.
    Select Start Sync. The files are
    transferred to your smartphone.
    This will send the whole library to your card.  There is an option to "Not Sync Automatically" that will then just open the library window in Windows Media Player on the right pane.  You can then drag and drop any songs you want on the card into this window.  When the songs are in the window that you want, then press the "Start Sync" button below the list in Windows Media Player.

    Was wondering if anyone could help. I just purchased the new Palm Centro from Sprint. My friend told me about a site where you can download ringtones for free and send it to your phone. The ringtone is on my phone but i'm unable to set it as one. Can anyone help?
    I appreciate it

  • Palm Centro ringtone question

    I recently loaded some AAC ringtones on my Centro. I can set them as general defaults and have successfully set any of them as a "contacts" ringtone for my home number. I tried to set one of them up for my wife's mobile number under "contacts" and for some reason it will not play the ringtone that I have selected for it (neither the new ringtones or the existing ringtones). The phone will only use the "known caller" tone for her mobile number.
    Any ideas on what is going one with this one?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Ok, try a 10 second soft reset by taking out the battery for at least 10 seconds. This allows the device to power off completely.
    If that doesn't work, Try a hard reset. The hard reset will erase all data and get the Centro back to factory defaults so sync the Centro before the hard reset. If you are assigning the ringtones according to the manual and they don't work properly, then start over with the device.
    Click on the link below for the hard reset procedure.

    Here is a link for the support page for your Centro. There is a link to the user manual on that page.

  • Palm centro giving "Please wait" every 15 seconds.

    Hi
    My Palm centro is giving "Please wait" every 15 seconds, even if im doing nothing. When I am doing something its very annoying as It always freezes for one second beforehand.
    ive tried a soft reset and a system reset.
    what could be causing this and how do I fix it?

    Hello AussieGuy and welcome to the Palm forums.
    I don't recall hearing about this issue before.  Are you restoring your applications and data on the Centro after performing a hard reset by immediately performing a HotSync?  What happens if you don't restore your data right away?  Will the Centro start working normally again?
    Have you checked to see if there is a ROM software upgrade available for your Centro?

  • Can't sync Palm Centro and Outlook 2007/Windows 7 - please help!

    Hello,
    I've never posted on a forum, but I'm at my wits end...!  I've been trying to get my Palm Centro to sync Contacts/Calendar/Memos to Outlook 2007 on my new laptop for a week now with no success.  It used to sync just fine to my old computer with Windows XP and Outlook 2003.  Then that computer crashed (my Outlook files were backed up on an external harddrive).  I received my new computer with Windows 7 XP (32-bit) and Outlook 2007.  I've downloaded the Palm Desktop 6.2, Windows 2007 Conduit, and Software Update 1.03 (Windows installer) for Centro for Verizon. 
    When I sync my phone to my new Outlook, it completes all 12 steps, but does not load Contacts/Calendar/Memos to Outlook.  This is a list of the error messages:

    Can someone please help me transfer Contacts/Calendar/Memos from my Palm Centro to my computer's Outlook 2007?
    I've ready about 3rd party software in posts (Pocket Mirror), but I don't know if it applies here because the Contact/Calendar/Memo information is in my Centro - not in Outlook.  I need to get it from my Centro to Outlook 2007. 
    Any help is greatly appreciated!  Thank you!

    I have a Pre Plus and am using CompanionLink software.  If the Centro is like the Plus (which I believe it is) it will not sync with Outlook.  Here is a link to Companion Link:

    I have been using this and it works great.  On their site you can choose the phone and the particular program you need to sync with and choose which you way you want to sync.
    Hope this helps
    Sorry hat, the Centro has absolutely nothing in common with a webOS device!  It runs PalmOS.  Nice of you to reply with your suggestion though! 
    @SyncHelpPlease:  OLERR errors are covered in this Palm KB article:
    http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/31167_en.html
    Something I noticed in your post - you installed Palm 6.2.2 AND the 2007 conduit.  Palm Desktop 6.2.2. has the 2007 conduits built into it already, and the patch is not needed.  Whether this is the cause of your problems, I'm not sure, but I've fielded several posts of the same issue where the user did the same thing you did!
    I'd suggest doing a clean uninstall, and reinstall of Palm Desktop 6.2.2 only. 
    I admit, I do not use Outlook, nor Win7, so I'm giving you my best guess at a way to solve your problem.  Hopefully, this may lead to a solution!

  • Palm Centro locks everytime I close a program by pressing End? Please Help

    If the Centro works like earlier PalmOS phones, the red end key turns the screen on and off; it is not used to close programs. By default, turning off the screen enables the keyguard, so it is necessary to press the center button to use the keyboard again. However, if she has to enter a password, she may need to adjust the settings under Applications (Home button) > Security.

    You are asking a LOT of Basic Questions that can be answered by reading the User Guide that is included with every Palm on the installation disk.
    It can also be read by going to Palm.com and the suport page for your device.
    You add programs with Palm Desktop and the Hotsync application.
    Ad-hoc refers to Wifi.  Not possible.
    Wifi: not possible.

    The CD that came with these handhelds does not have a 64-bit driver. Neither does Palm Desktop 6.2.2. But the company that took over PalmOS did make one. 
    Read this thread for information on installing the Palm Desktop 64-bit drivers.

  • Palm Centro Unwanted Hotsync Help!!

    Okay I have the Palm Centro from AT&T and I got this message from the phone saying it was connecting to HotSync and I don't want it to and it keeps popping up anyways! Please help me figure out how to make it stop trying to connect.
    BTW I'm 13 and I don't know what to do so please put it easier for me to do this. And my parents aren't home so I can't ask them. 
    Post relates to: Centro (AT&T)

    Hello and welcome to the Palm forums!
    You can click on "cancel" to stop the hot sync or remove the battery from your centro and stick it right back in. This should stop the hot sync.
    PS It is not a good idea to post personal information on a public forum. You can click on the top right of your post and edit it. I would suggest that you remove your age from the post and the fact that your parents are not home. It is not safe to inform the public about that! You can just write that you need help with this issue and you would like a response asap.

    Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

    Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
    This is very possible. The easiest way is to beam the programs using bluetooth. Once bluetooth is enabled on both devices, from the main Apps screen, click the upper left hand side of the screen and you should see some menus drop down. Click App then go to send. Select the program you want to transfer and click Send.
    Depending on the size of the program you are trying to send will determine how long it will take.
    I hope this helps and let me know if you have any further questions.

    Unless you saved them somewhere you need to download and pay again.  There is currently no way to just get them again. You can create your own ringtones
