Getting a ring tone and installing that ring tone in your Motorola Q is easy with this quick guide.
Instructions
1. Search for sites offering ring tone downloads for your phone. Most sites will offer files in mp3 format, which can be played in any compatible phone model or brand. Mp3 files can be played on your Motorola Q.
2. Follow the site's instructions and links to download your chosen ring tone and download the file to your PC. To easily find the file you can direct your download to automatically save on your desktop.
3. Connect your Motorola Q via USB cable to your computer or laptop. You can also connect your phone to your computer by activating the Bluetooth of both devices.

5. Click on My Windows-Based Mobile Device. Navigate to Application Data then on to the Sounds folder. This is where you should store your mp3 audio files so you can use them as ring tones. Keep this window open.
6. Drag the mp3 file from the location you saved it to (in our case, the desktop) and drop it to the Sounds folder in the ActiveSync. Or you can also copy-paste it to your Sounds folder. Wait for the transfer to be completed, and then disconnect your Motorola Q from your computer.
7. On your Motorola Q press the Start button on the left bottom corner. On the menu that appears, press Settings, then Sounds. This menu folder will show you all the sound files in your phone including the one you just uploaded. Select the file then click on Done, and then Done again.
