How To Change Default Sounds On IPhone? How To Set A Melody For SMS, E-mail, Etc.? [IFAQ]

A prerequisite for creating your own sounds (SMS, Reminders, E-mail, etc.) of your i-device is a jailbreak on the device, otherwise you will not get access to the file system. You can open access to the file system using the AppSync utility from Cydia. First, prepare mp3 files of your future sounds. You can cut and edit files, for example, using SoundForge or any other

audio editor. Sound files are stored in your i-device in.caf audio format. To get such a file you need:

1. Take the desired.mp3 file for the future sound, for example yablyk.mp3 and make a file with the.aif extension from it. To create this file it is best to use the standard features of iTunes, namely:

- in the Edit menu - Settings - General - Import settings - Importer, set the "AIFF encoder";

- add yablyk.mp3 file to iTunes;

- right-click on the yablyk.mp3 file and select "Create version for AIFF";

- after saving to iTunes, you will get two identical files yablyk.mp3 and yablyk.aif, select yablyk.aif in iTunes and copy it to your computer desktop.

- rename the yablyk.aif file extension to yablyk.caf.

2. Connect the device to a computer using the iPhoneFolders program or any other program that provides access to the file system of your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch and follow the link / System / Library / Audio / UIsounds.

3. All available standard sounds (SMS, Reminders, E-mail, etc.) of your i-device will be in front of you in the UIsounds folder. To set your own yablyk.caf sound as a system sound, you just need to change its name to the name of any existing system sound in the folder. For example, the sound "Glass" corresponds to the sound sms-received3.caf in the UIsounds folder, so to add our yablyk.caf file instead, you just need to rename it to sms-received3.caf. Then when you select the sound "Glass" on the device after reboot, our yablyk.mp3 will sound. Be sure to rename the original sms-received3.caf file to sms-received3-1.caf to return to the original sounds on the device at any time.

4. Restart the device.

5. Open Settings - Sounds on the device and select "Glass" for the desired action.
