New email alert sound

[psylichon]

So I made a new email alert sound. Being the only one besides voicemail that isn't customizable via the phone, it was driving me and the wife crazy... "was that your email or mine?"

So I thought I'd share it, as I had a hard time finding a sound that was pleasing, gets attention, but doesn't annoy. Very hard. But I think I did it.

I came up with this one

In case you don't know how it works, download the file, change the extension to .caf and copy to the iPhone (using whatever SSH method you use) under the directory /System/Library/Audio/UISounds

And there ya go. Enjoy.

This is my unlock sound.

It's refreshing...if that word can be used to describe a tone, haha.

Weird dude. I just dug up this thread for myself in a search today because I forgot to backup this one before restoring (see other thread). Talk about a co-inky dink.

I love this sound. It's cuts through a relatively noisy room without smashing folks over the head. It's like a fresh breath.... "what was that?"
