Hey everyone, I need a little help please. I want to use custom sms tones but I guess im not doing something right. I made my own, its about 2 seconds in length. I renamed it to sms_recieved2.caf and then replaced the stock one with the custom on using iFile. But when I go into settings to select the sms tone, theres no sound when I try to preview it. When I select it, and someone txts me, no sound. Anyone know what I am doing wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Jailbroken? If not.. not going to happen.

If so, try ToneFX or BiteSMS for SMS tone customizations...much cleaner approach and it WORKS.

When I right click on the tone, it doesnt give me the option to creat an AIFF, just AAC. Am I missing something?

I take that back, I figured out how to convert to AIFF first and still no dice. A little confused at the moment...
