Howdy folks.

Hell, it's been a long time coming, but I have finally got my arse in gear
and worked out the Emmie tune for your god-awful, totally non-musical
Ericsson phones!  ;-p

OK, I haven't had a look at an Ericsson phone yet, but I had a look at a
site which offers programmes for ring tones, and I think I've worked out
what they can do and what they can't.

One thing is not clear, and that is whether all the notes can be raised by
an octave, or just c and d.  The notes available on the keypad numbers
alone are c, d, e, f, g, a, b, c+ and d+, with c+ and d+ being 'up the
octave' notes.  It does, however, say in the manual that you can press and
hold zero to raise a note by an octave.

What I want you to do is this - 
1)  go to the compose your own ring part of the phone.
2)  press 3 to get the note e.
3)  now press 0 to raise e by an octave.

OK, does it now say e+ ?  (as opposed to just e )

If the answer is no...

You can only have the first two lines of the tune; they look like this:

d g d+ C+ * * * a# a a# g f d# d D# * * * * * * * 
c d# c+ A# * * * a g a f d# d c D * * * * * * *

If the answer is yes...

You can input the whole tune (if there is enough space), and it looks like
this:

e a e+ D+ * * * c+ b c+ a g f e F * * * * * * *  
d f d+ C+ * * * b a b g f e d E * * * * * * *
c f c+ A# * * * a g a e g f e F * * * * *
c d E * * f g A * F * D * G * C * * * * * * * * * *

In these codes, the notes with a + sign are raised by one octave, the
capital letters (eg. D) are long notes (press and hold), and the * s are
rests or pauses.  It's very important you have the right number of pauses,
or the tune will sound shite.

OK, best of luck, and let me know how you get on.
