**SBouri** · 03-23-2008 12:11 PM

Is there any way of changing the reminder sound using SSH?

Thanks

I was just looking into this, but awaiting 1.2 before i proceed.

Looks like /var/root/Library/RiPDev/Sounds/ contains the sounds.

Also if you wish to play with sound intervals as i like beeps every 30 seconds you can edit:
/var/root/Library/RiPDev/PreferenceBundles/RemindMe.bundle/RemindMe.plist

and change section to your liking

<key>validTitles</key>
<array>
<string>2 minutes</string>
<string>5 minutes</string>
<string>10 minutes</string>
<string>15 minutes</string>
<string>20 minutes</string>
</array>
<key>validValues</key>
<array>
<integer>120</integer>
<integer>300</integer>
<integer>600</integer>
<integer>900</integer>
<integer>1200</integer>

in my case

<key>validTitles</key>
<array>
<string>15 seconds</string>
<string>30 seconds</string>
<string>45 seconds</string>
<string>1 minutes</string>
<string>2 minutes</string>
</array>
<key>validValues</key>
<array>
<integer>15</integer>
<integer>30</integer>
<integer>45</integer>
<integer>60</integer>
<integer>120</integer>

Valid values is actual seconds and match above seconds/minutes

May require reboot after changes

Has this been tried and tested?

I've done it on mine, but only used sound files as long as 10 seconds ( thinking uses same system as real SMS/VOICEMAIL alerts )

Having trouble locating the sound that Caterpillar uses for its reminder beep. Does anyone know what .caf file it is? Its probably one of the system sounds as opposed to one in the RipDev folder.

/var/root/Library/RiPDev/Sounds/ contains the sounds. one for missed sms reminder and other missed call reminder simply named as well

Funny...

That folder on my iphone has a sound for a missed sms... but not for the reminder

**TheGuyz** · 04-04-2008 06:15 AM

Hmmm......

I wonder why when you open Reminder you have Missed SMS and Missed Calls......

sms-missed.caf = Missed SMS Sound
i-seek-you.caf = Missed Calls Sound

I've changed these sounds to my own and now when reminder gets called i get my own Missed SMS and Missed Calls sound.
