Unable to use mp3's as ringtone. All music files have to be listed in mp3 folder, no sub folder navigation possible. Ocassionally when you start the music player side of the phone, not all mp3's stored on card are listed. I have had to restart the player 3 - 4 times before all files will be listed.
