Is there a jailbroken hack to have custom SMS noises?

[spaceballl]

I have a custom ringtone. Great. But I'd love to have a mario or yoshi noise when I get a new text message. Is there something for this?

biteSMS?

BiteSMS does it, and makes texting better overall.

i thought biteSMS was a replacement SMS app... no?

Yes, and it does what you want too.

if you don't want to use bitesms, you can also ssh the necessary .caf files and use custom sms ringtones with default sms app.

Either make them/find them and replace the default sounds with those via SSH or you can look at ToneFX. You can create your own tones and upload them into your phone that way.

you know if i'm not mistaken, i know i saw a new cydia app load this morning that had the new SMS tones from 4.2.1. otherwise, yes BiteSMS (i think a full lisence is on sale for ~$7 until Xmas) has custom tones.

Try Tonefxs I use this all the time 😉

You can get it for full free with ads also, the ads are really small and they don't bother at all 🙂

Yep I did that for my mail tone, works great.

just wanted to say thanks for the recommendations, all. I was using tlert before in order to have quick replies to SMS messages, but the default bitesms quick-reply is even better. I got rid of tlert, and now i've switched over to bitesms. Thanks!
