Check out the Dell Store on CNETRingdroid: Awesome Android ringtone-maker
One of the most striking things about this early batch of Android apps is how many excellent freebies there are. Ringdroid is yet another sophisticated, intuitive freeware app that will prove a boon to T-Mobile G1-toting ringtone-lovers.
Ringdroid lets you create ringtones from MP3, WAV, and ARM files you load onto your phone through the SD card or that you purchase through the Amazon MP3 store.

Unlike many Android apps that use the Menu keys to store some software functions, most of Ringdroid's controls are out on the interface and all respond to touch. You can set the start and ending notes by sliding arrows along the timeline, by pressing Start and End to record the point, or by typing in time stamps.
You can zoom in to set more precise marks on the timeline, and can press the Menu key while in zoom mode to reset to the beginning. When you're ready to save, you'll choose from the drop-down menu to create a ringtone, alarm, notification, or edited tune.
Ringdroid is also equipped with a Record button on the app interface, letting you lay down your own sounds from scratch.
Ringdroid is missing the ability to fade in and out, loop, and equalize song selections (read more here), but its ease of use and flexibility in saving audio snippets as more than just ringtones make it an instant must-have app.

If yes, are there any free apps that do this that work with Blackberry Curves?
Thanks!

(6 Comments)This is an app for any phone with the Android phone OS. Previously it would only be from T-Mobile as they were the only ones with android powered phones, however, the other carriers are jumping onboard so this is no longer the case.
Its fairly hard right now to buy an Android powered phone and not know your getting an android phone so if you don't know if you have it or not, you probably don't.
No matter the carrier all android phones have access to the same app marketplace, available via an icon/shortcut on your phone. Search for this and other apps there.
