Ringtones are a great way to personalize the sound of your incoming calls. Before, your phone only came with factory preset sounds and there was no other way to add a new ringtone. However, the emergence of downloadable mp3 files and the advent of online music stores made a demand for custom cellular music.

To download your own ringtones, you can use a site like Tones7. This website offers free ringtones and other content. Tones7 also allows you to mix and match your own mashups to create a completely unique sound for your phone. Another option is to use Ringtone Maker. With this website, you can upload any audio clip you want to turn into a personalised digitized chime. Just upload your sound clip, choose a start and end time, and click the "Make Ringtone" button to get your customized ringtone.

Another great source of free ringtones for your Android phone is CallBEAT. This website allows you to create your own ringtones from any song you want. You can even refine your search by keyword and choose from featured thumping mp3 ringtones. You can also download ringtones through SMS. This service is extremely popular and is available on most major cell phone networks. In addition to downloading mp3 files, the app allows you to transfer them to your phone.
