okay so I made my own ringtones with itunes and put them on my iphone 3g and I can set them for incoming calls but not for a new text message anyone know how I can do this?
 
you are correct, you can't do that (unless you possibly jailbreak)... SMS and emails only get a few sound choices.
 
can you tell me how to jailbreak I did it once on a friends a long time ago but not since
 
What about 3.0?

I have been searching threads to see if this is possible on the new 3.0 OS (customize sms ringtones). Can anyone with 3.0 beta let us know if this is possible?
 
so i followed the iclarified on how to jailbreak but at the end when I am suppose to connect to itunes and restore to the jailbroke firmware a message comes up saying error try disconnecting and reconnecting so I do and nothing happens my iphone wont even show up in itunes I have to turn the phone on and connect it and restore it to factory.
 
Ok I successfully JB my iphone but I still cant set a custom ringtone for my text messages what do I do now that its JB to set them?
