For Text Message Tone i think there's a limit of 6sec, sobetter make sure your tone that limit.
If you want to pump-up the volume for your custom tone try this:
Open the tone in Media Player in your Pc.
Play it and slider the volume bar to the loudest
Save it in a different name.
This works for me. You might also want to use the Movie Maker of Windows XP.
I Hope this helps...
