Post your current custom text message tone

[felipestrong]

the ! sound from metal gear solid

the "hey! listen!" sound from zelda OOT

The fairy says that!!! Navi. Ha, glad to see I'm not the only Zelda nerd on here. My son was playing the most recent Zelda release on his Wii a few nights ago and I schooled him about how the "puzzle solved" sound has basically been the same since 1986. Then I told him stories about a certain gold-colored plastic cartridge...

I've wanted that Law & Order text tone since I heard we'd custom tones in iOS 5. How do you get it? Some Star Trek tones would be cool too.

I think you have to save it as an mp3 on your computer, change the file extension, and then import it into iTunes.

I'm sure you can google "how do I make an iPhone ringtone" and some results will come up. I personally used a program for my Mac called "Fission" which makes it all pretty easy.

I have this one, love it!! I downloaded mine from zedge and then changed the file extension to .m4r (I believe) and then opened it in iTunes... really easy. Need to find more now... maybe something from Stargate, so many possibilities.

got the mp3 from here
http://soundfxcenter.com/download-sound/sheldon-bazinga-sound-effect/

then converted it to .m4r

Thank you muchly!

[Codepiink]

when you go to text sounds, you can pick any ringtone already on the phone

that being said, mine is "muchos hornos" from family guy. anybody who gets that reference will get a +1

lmao! "Muchos. Hornos....Muchos. Hornos....Muchos. Hornos.....Muchos. Hornos. Ay yay yay yayyya ya yayyaa yaya..." ... I'm mad I just typed that out. now I have to get some fan guy tones!

Do you have a link to that? I liked that sound so much better than the new "chirping" sound...

Edit. Nevermind, made one. Here's a link for anyone that wants it. Converted to .m4r & ready to go.

Very nice. I will be using this.

 

[det2004]

Any others using some cool text tones?

 

[dontwalkhand]

I am scared when I walk around in public now that this feature is here, there are going to be people who will set entire songs as text tones...errrp.

 

[AreYouIn?]

Mine is the sound of the Tardis from Doctor Who. I'll load it up when I get to a computer if anyone is interested.

 

[Roessnakhan]

I got a bunch of Xbox sounds from Major Nelson and use them for various things. My text tone is "Achievement Unlocked".

My coworker uses the opening chime from Back to the Future.

 

[EmbraceTheOne]

I love the Window's Phone 7 Text Tones.


I downloaded the MP3 from this video. Brought it into Garage Band, Took the ones I liked..


BOOM. Text ringtone

Dude. I used the Achievement unlocked noise for the past year, or more. I'd go crazy sometimes hearing the 'bloop' noise, When I don't really hear it.

Alot of the times I'd get a friend to sign into xbox, and a text at the same time.

Crazy stuff.

Nice. I'm currently rocking a Dr. Who theme on my 4s. Wallpaper is the police box, lock screen is David Tennant as the Doctor. Ringtone is a shortened version of the theme song, text tone is a Dalek shouting "WOULD YOU CARE FOR SOME TEA?" and incoming email is the Tardis landing. Oh, and mail sent is the sonic screwdriver.

I'm still looking for a nice clip of a Dalek shouting "EXTERMINATE," preferably one where the vocal tone goes up a bit at the end, like he's uncertain, and it needs to have little to no background noise/music. Tomorrow I may try making one of the Dalek saying "IDENTIFY!"

(I'm trying to get my husband to have a text tone of a Cyberman saying "You will identify," as well. )

Xbox 360 Achievement Sound..

I'd rather not link it because it's easy enough to find using Google. (And I'm lazy.)

 

[njgeek]

I wouldn't mind finding the old Everquest DING! sound.

 

[greganpace]

I downloaded soundflower and use it to record straight from my computer and convert it to MP3 and then edit it in garageband to make my ringtones. Point being, anything on youtube. I have a few great classic NES game songs as ringtones, and I use the Zelda "Hey!" as my text and "Listen!" as my voicemail tones. I am still in need of some good mail/twitter/facebook tones though... I am liking the Kim Possible idea...
