Ringer, Wallpaper, game, utility formats for All Phones

Something I havent seen is the answer to some peoples questions on what formats you can download to what phones. Has anyone seen a list that shows all the Sprint phones and what formats they take? Mostly because the new phones take different formats in some cases, and the old phones dont take some of the current formats.....

Can people list their phones, and others if they know, of the formats for their ringers, wallpapers, games, utilities, etc???


Thanks!

Unhappy

Since 49 people have viewed this post and no one has replied, maybe its because no one understands what I am asking for. Lets try this...

I know that the Audiovox pm8920 can accept the following:

Ringers: mid, qcp
Wallpaper/Screensavers: png, jpg
Games/Utilites: jar

and wont accept mp3, mmf, wav, aac, gif, tif

Ringers: mp3, aac, mmf
Wallpaper/Screensavers: gif, tif
Games/Utilites: exe

I know that the MM-A700 can play aac's.
I know that the Uproar can play mp3's.

Thats the kind of thing I am looking for. Not just for myself, but for newbies, and others just searching for answers that have gone unasked.

Would someone else mind posting their info as well?

Thanks!

I know that T-Moblies Samsungs and maybe other brands under T-Mobile uses the "mmf" format. I don't know what that means, but I think it's a knock off of "mid" ringtones. Because the sounds and tunes played by them were polyphonic. They place voice tones too, but I didn't catch that format.

on D-D-N.com there is a phone compatability chart that briefly lists what the phones can do.

basically...all the vision phones can use MIDI and QCP files for ringers, and JPEG, TIFF, etc for wallpaper

for programs, its a JAR and JAD file needed
