Hello everyone I am very new to this forum and am sure i am not doing this right so please let me say how sorry i am right up front..

However I have a new Iphone g3 with the 2.2 software i believe. I wish to replace the electronic sound with my own for SMS text. Would anyone be so kind as to pm or email me step by step directions on how to do this without messing up my whole phone. Thanks in advance CaptRon

are you jailbroken? in order to replace the sms tone you will have to jailbreak your iphone. it is safe and easy to do. check out this section as there is lots of info on jailbreaking as well as fixes if you should run into any problems.

I was gona say you dont need to be jailbroken to make custom ringtones BUT for custom SMS tones you would need to jailbreak the phone, then make the custom tone yourself. (for Ringtones max time is 40seconds. For SMStones max is 3-5seconds) You would need to make the custom tone with a sound editing program then SSH it into your phone. I dunno where you'd need to place the file tho.
