I wonder which part of those changes is the important?

An m4r file is seen as a ringtone by iTunes and synced. However, I believe there are bitrate restrictions on the ringtone – must be 64K – for it to work.

Or at least that was the case with iOS3 and iTunes 8, back when I did it.

I used ffmpeg with FAAC support:

ffmpeg -i ringtone.wav -acodec libfaac -ab 64K ringtone.aac
mv ringtone.aac ringtone.m4r
