Simple Hack to Add Free Custom Ringtones to your iPhone
One of the simplest hacks prior to iPhone firmware 2.x and iTunes 7.7 was to create free custom ringtones for your iPhone. A lot does not seem to have changed post iPhone firmware 2.x and iTunes 7.7 based on a step by step guide posted by theAppleBlog. You check out...

Here is a "much easier solution", it is also freeware. I tried it and it works great.

Well converting an mp3 to a .m4r you can get a full song as a ringtone and you dont need it to restrict to 30 secs..
I did that and placed it in the folder directly after SSHing so I can have a full song as a ringtone. so try it out -
Almost forgot it is for Windows only. Sorry Mac users :-(
-
u know u can create custom ringtones with garage band, and have them transferred to itunes..
-
Do you really need a whole song for a ring tone??? I mean 30 secs is plenty of time. Remember space is limited, besides won't your voice mail pick up before then?
-
When 30 secs is enough for some might be not for some ....and the voicemail doesnt act up at 30 secs ....well i prefer having the whole song or wateva instead of croppin it ...tats wat im used to and i wanted tat on my iphone
-
Awesome info worked great! I got my ringtones BACK!!!
-
For us Windows users I just figured this way out, it probably isn't new, use WinSCP to ssh any m4a files into /Library/Ringtones then simply right click and rename the extention to m4r and they work, for good measure I changed the permissions on mine to 0755...btw I'm on 2.0
-
there is a site that i go to that makes custom iphone ringtones.
audiko.net
-
Everytime i make ringtones they always duplicate and there is like 5 of the same ringtones or however many ringtones i make
-
I did what was stated however theres no selection for "get info" once ive put the cut version on the desktop. I can only do things like properties..
Please help??

go to a folder, then click "tools" then "folder options", then "view" and uncheck "hide extensions for known file types". all your files will show the ".m4a" ect. change the "a" to a "r" and it will work.
-
(then check the box for "hide extensions for known file types" to bring everything back the way it was)
-
can anyone help me to stop the duplication of ringtones from showing up on my iPhone 3g
-
Anybody unable to do this in 2.0.2? I successfully added a custom ringtone before, but upgrading to 2.0.2 killed my phone and I had to do a restore, and now I am unable to see the ringtones on the phone.
They still show up under the Ringtones section of my iTunes library but it will not copy over to the iPhone with a sync, and I cannot drag and drop it manually either.
-
Mac users can just put the song into garage band, edit it, and export to iTunes as ringtone option. :D Just thought id throw that out there.
-
It worked!!! I haven't been this excited since I bought the phone! I hope the next update doesn't squash this ability.
-
how do i make it my ringtone after i do all that i went to settings in the phone and clicked ringtones but its not there ???
-
simple. (Windows only in iTunes 7.7.1) all you have to do is find the song that you want, get iTunes to convert it to .mp4 (convert to .acc in iTunes) copy that file to a new location (ie. the .mp4 copy) delete the .mp4 from iTunes, go to where ever the .mp4 is and rename the file extension to .mpr (requires file extensions to be not hidden => unhide in folder options) copy the .mpr into iTunes then on to your iPhone.
this has worked for me many times and i got a iPhone 3G
