I had the same problem, what i did was do what you have done to get to the right folder then name the new tone exactly the same as the original one and drag it in to the folder, it will then tell you one already exists and just choose to replace it. then it works!

Thanks, thats what I have been doing. I even copied the file name and pasted it to the new file so the file name was exact but I still get the old message alert??

I think the error you've made is deleting the file from the iphone before putting the new one on. you should of just dragged the new exact named one on and then clicked replace. maybe by deleting the original first that has caused a problem. try replacing maybe the email recieved one this way and see what happens

Thanks, Ive been a real wally and been changing the message recieved file not the SMS recieved file. Thanks for your help it now works!!!
