I tried a theme, (and forgot which one) that changed the voices/sounds of my iphone.
It was really refreshing/cool to hear completely different stuff coming from my iphone.
So can you guys post which themes change the stock sounds, or add new sounds/voices.
I would like to try a bunch, and so would some other guys I'm sure.

I'm a Star Trek fan and Installed a tweak called Star Trek sounds. Uses a lot of sounds from TNG for things like typing, respring, etc... No voices.

There is also one called Star Wars Sounds for the star wars fans.

Those sound cool, do you have the name I would use to search cydia?

anyone else out there know of any themes that actually change the sounds,
(not just the visuals)?

I agree, I love themes that include new sounds. Off the top of my head I know Redline has some good sounds, thats what I'm using now. I would have to look through my files to find some others.

Elite, Legacy, DarkHaz3. I saved sounds from those, so I must have liked them as well.

Check the sections part in Cydia then Themes (sounds)
 
Are we able to change the notification sounds? :confused:

Yes. I used iFile to insert custom notifications. When my wife sends me a text, I get a "The wife has sent a message". When I Get a new email, a female zen-like voice tells me "new e-mail", and so on. I have different notifications for tweets, texts, mail, calendar alerts, voicemail, etc...

Download any notification, ringtone or alert, usually an .m4r file, and insert it to var/stash/library/ringtones. Then go to settings, sounds and change your notifications.

I do have some of them changed like sms, mails, and alerts, alarm, lock/unlock sound but ...... All apps i downloaded always uses a default notification sound which I don't know how to change.

Btw, can share where to find/download nice tones? :D
My lock/unlock is a female robot tone, i'm thinking of changing all my tones to something similiar, then it will almost be like "Siri" talking phone~! :D

Thanks
 
Dark HD hsa some cool sounds

I actually took the sounds from that and added them to the theme I use now!

You can either SSH into the phone or use a program like iExplorer to copy over the existing default sounds(just be sure to make backups of the originals)? That's what I did, and I am very happy about that fact..
 
Just installed Aspire, it includes some great UISounds.
