ringtones change for sms/email...?

[yomnym]

Is there a way to change os customize the sms sounds and the rest of the phone notifications? Any cydia app? Thanks

You can SSH into your phone and replace the actual sounds or you can make a Winterboard theme with the following directory structure:

YourTheme > UISounds > ...

In there you can put whatever sounds you wish to replace. The sound files are originally *.aiff with the extension changes to *.caf.


Here are the filenames you can replace:

alarm.caf
beep-beep.caf
begin_record.caf
begin_video_record.caf
ct-busy.caf
ct-call-waiting.caf
ct-congestion.caf
ct-error.caf
ct-keytone2.caf
ct-path-ack.caf
dtmf-0.caf
dtmf-1.caf
dtmf-2.caf
dtmf-3.caf
dtmf-4.caf
dtmf-5.caf
dtmf-6.caf
dtmf-7.caf
dtmf-8.caf
dtmf-9.caf
dtmf-pound.caf
dtmf-star.caf
end_record.caf
end_video_record.caf
jbl_ambiguous.caf

Either download winterboard then download the sounds from cydia, or ssh inot your phone. Might wanna do a search.

System/Library/Audio/UISounds/

You will see six .caf files in there called sms-received1.caf thru sms-received6.caf. You need to replace these .caf files with your own .caf files.

You will see a .caf file in there called Voicemail.caf. You need to replace this .caf file with your own .caf file.

Don't know if E-mail can be changed ?

In order for you to get your .mp3 to a .caf file, you will need to do a little conversion.

Renaming alone will not do it with an MP3. conversion is necessary.

CAF is a renamed AIFF file (*.aif). AIFF is an uncompressed file (like a .WAV file).

iTunes can convert any file imported into an AIFF if you go into preferences/general/importing and select the AIFF encoder. Then just rename the file to the proper *.caf file you want to replace and SSH it to the phone.

There's a category in cydia for sounds. I believe it is titled "Winterboard (sounds)" I can't remember for sure tho, but it's there. OR just do the ssh thing. I am not sure about how comfortable you are with computers. Using winterboard is easier, but ssh has more possibilities.

i dont know why this isnt a feature anyway.
