Louder tones for ringing, text and e-mail alerts

How can I increase the sound settings to make the ring tones, text & e-mail alerts louder? I have used the rocker switch on the side to turn up the volume to the max but I still miss calls and alerts. No I am not deaf either!! I am sure other users must face the same dilemma. Thanks. Colin.

IPhone, Other OS, softwear 1.1.4.

cookit,

You may also want to try using different ringtones and text message alerts to find one that you can hear clearly. You can also create your own ringtones if you find a sound or song that you can hear better.

Hope this helps,

i hate to point this out but with 1.1.4 and a non-hacked phone you can make custom ringtones for incoming calls - you have a selection of built in sounds for text msgs but no way of adding custom ones - for the other alerts you can just turn them on or off - you cant chose the sound they make

I'm using your ringtone, thanks it's brilliant. The selection available on the iPhone are very poor and too quiet. Now all I need is a proper loud SMS alert, again the ones in the iPhone are much much to quiet. Any Idea if it's possible to somehow get louder SMS alerts....?
