How to Change E-Mail Notifications iPhone 4 - Verizon

WinSCP File

GreenPois0n File for Jailbreak

To install OpenSSH on your iPhone, go to Cydia - Search - OpenSSH - Install.


STEPS

1. Download File you are interested in to your computer. (Should Be Short/Small File) Mine is 6 Seconds.

2. Play File in iTunes.

3. After it has finished playing, go to Edit - Preferences

4. In Preferences, look for the Import Settings about half way down next to the CD play info.

5. Click Import Settings, then use the Drop Down bar where is says "Import using ACC" and change it to "Import Using AIFF" .

6. Ok/Accept back out to the iTunes Primary Folder.

7. Find the file you want, and highlight it.

8. Once clip is selected, click Advanced (in top bar) - Create AIFF Version. It will produce another file in the folder, an AIFF file.

9. Copy the AIFF File and paste it in the folder you like (or desktop).

10. Right click and change your file extension from .aif to .caf .

11. Now, use WinSCP (or like program) and SSH your iPhone.

11A. To find out your Host Name for WinSCP, on your iPhone go to Settings - Wifi - Network Name (Click the Blue Arrow). Your Host Name will be your IP. The User Name is root and the Password is alpine . Click Login.

12. On your phone side (right), you should automatically be brought into /private/var/root . You want to back out to /root .

13. Then, follow this file sequence. /System/Library/Audio/UISounds/ and you should see a long list of .caf and other files.

14. (Optional, but I recommend it). Find the new-mail.caf (or whatever file you are changing, and copy it. Then minimize the program and past it somewhere you know where it will be just in case as a back up. I guess you could probably rename the one on the phone side to a .bak file or something before you transfer and keep it on the phone. But I do not know as I have not tried it that way.

15. Now, on the left side (computer), navigate your way to where you made your earlier .caf file. Right click the file and name it to "new-mail.caf" or whatever file you are replacing.

16. Now, Drag the file from the left side (computer) to the right side (phone). Click Ok and wait for transfer.

17. After transfer is complete, Exit the program on the computer.

18. Go into Winterboard and Re-Spring your phone (or Power Off then Power On).

Try dragging the task bar at the top to the left until you get to the right corner and then minimize the area by dragging it in. Then press the full screen box at the top. Thats what I did.

Thanks man u rock!!!

All my friends r going 2 go crazy wen they hear my Droid new email sound!

[MadMary33326]

It didn't work for me. I have cyber duck. Followed your instructions and when I play the sound in cyber duck it plays the new mail sound "you've got mail". However after I respringed the sound is stock. What I mean is I sent myself an email and its not the new-mail.caf "you got mail" .Any ideas?

hey thanks for the vid. I've got VNC working on my windows pc but I seem to have a problem with the scale of the window in which it displays my phone. It's huge and I constantly have to use the scroll bars on the sides and at the bottom to get to apps. How can change this so that the whole screen shot fits the window like yours?

Thanks in advance
