Just make your own, find the audio clip you want to use, then convert it from wav or mp3 to OGG file format, there are plenty of audio translation software packages out there for free use - Mike

What sort of nightmare? Come on, give us a clue!
If you haven't got a convertor, just put "wav to ogg convertor freeware" into Google and take your choice..... (http://www.mgshareware.com/frmmain.shtml is one of many).

If you are trying to use a particular program, which one?

silly question but what do you do with file once you have converted to ogg?

You would have to place the new SMS received audio file into the data.chk file, this involves building a new data.chk file for your device, which (depending on software version) can be achieved using POIW - as always when doing this sort of thing make sure you back-up the device before messing - Mike

Mike thanks for the quick reply, I'll give it a go now.

Not silly at all...

POI Extended Warnings from Ray Flanagan's site would have done it, but hasn't been updated to work with later firmware versions AFAIK.
I think there is another data.chk builder somewhere but I've gone blank as to what it's called... Embarassed
