Nothing is more important than a Harry Potter Ringtone

Yesterday while at work, I got a call from my lovely wife.

Me: Hello.

Dawn: Scott, something's wrong with my phone.

Me: The one you're talking on?

Dawn: Yes.

Me: What?

Dawn: When you changed the background on it to the picture of you with the funny face, my Harry Potter Ringtone quit working.

Me: I don't know how that could of affected the ringtone. Do you remember how to fix it?

Dawn: Yes, but it's not working.

Me: Alright, click the middle button, select My Media, select Sounds, select Potter, and then click Apply as Ringtone.

Dawn: Okay. I'll try it. Thanks.

**Click**

A few minutes later, I got another call.

Me: Yo!

Dawn: It didn't work.

Me: Did you follow the instructions exactly?

Dawn: Yes, but it's not working.

Me: What do you mean it's not working?

Dawn: What do you think I mean?

Me: Not enough information to compute.

Dawn: What's wrong with it? It was working fine before you changed the background.

Me: How about this - Can I look at it when I get home?

Dawn: Fine. Talk to you later.

Me: Bye.

**Click**

Later that day
Driving in the car with my wife, I remembered the ringtone situation.

Me: Let me see your phone.

Dawn: Why?

Me: So I can fix that ringtone.

Dawn: Oh, I figured it out.

Should be a scene in a movie......very funny. Everyone needs something (or someone) to keep them on their toes.

haha, how many conversations have I had just like that?

But don't leave me hanging. How'd she do it? Did she turn her volume back up?

I just asked her and her answer is even better: "It suddenly worked."

This is so stupid of me, but: I found your story because I was searching google to FIND a ringtone, and I wondered how I could go about acquiring that ringtone for MY phone (a Sanyo). Any ideas?

I NEVER post comments but I had to when I read that everyone else was on this site for the same reason. Why is it so hard to find the darn ringtone, but I am certainly glad that the discussion was available. Thanks for being there.

I think I can say that everyone here is looking for that Harry Potter ringtone. I bet that everyone here has been looking for that ringtone everywhere! Searched a lot of sites and some sites you got suckered into those sites that ask you for your # and get caught into a subscription. Been there done that. I just want to download it. Pay the fee I have to for JUST 1 tone, not for a whole month or more. I just want that ringtone. Is that too much to ask. UGH. Tired of finding that ringtone and then can't download it. Can anyone help! PLEASEEEE!
