I have added my ringtones to the phone using IFuntastic and that worked great! But one of my uses for my mobil is as a pager using SMS messages. In my old razor I was able to set it so that I could have a loud and long enough ringtone so that it would wake me when I got paged but I see no way of specifying the SMS ringtone with the Iphone. Of course what I really would like is to be able to have individualized SMS ringtones so that I only get my loud ringtone for the accounts I get paged from. Does anyone have any helpful hints?
I was able to find the answer on

You have to do it via terminal using jailbreak and iPhoneInterface and
then you replace the system sound. One note about following the
directions. I found that I kept getting an error trying to putfile my
sms-received.caf file using the full pathname I kept getting
iPhone:/# putfile /System/Library/Audio/UISounds/sms-received.caf
Problem with AFCFileRefOpen: 12
so instead I did a
iPhone:/# cd /System/Library/Audio/UISounds
then
iPhone:/System/Library/Audio/UISounds# rmdir sms-received.caf
then
iPhone:/System/Library/Audio/UISounds# putfile sms-received.caf
after that I followed the remaining instructions and everything worked
at that point. I hope at some point that Apple will allow individualized ringtones for SMS messages but in the meantime my phone will work as my pager!
