Now you can make that your sound recordings will show up in iPhone’s voicemail, thanks to Erica Sadun from Tuaw.com. She discovered that iPhone’s voicemail is stored in ~/Library/Voicemail folder and it uses sqlite3-compatible database to manage all information.

She has managed to trick Apple iPhone to think that amr files from file system, added to iPhone’s voicemail folder are actual voicemails. To make this happen, she ported sqlite3 to iPhone, download this file here, then she wrote a script, (you can download it here) and time utility (take it here).
You have to run the script, first you need to supply it with your amr file as its one argument, example (copy2vmail foo.amr). The script copies iPhone’s amr file to the voicemail folder and updates voicemail database as, if voicemail were received at this time.
Then you have to force iPhone’s voicemail to update and re-read voicemail database. Do it by entering iPhone application and quiting it by holding down the home button for 4-8 seconds. Then re-enter your iPhone application and then you have to see your sound recording as a new voice message from “VoiceRecorder”. Isn’t it amazing, big thanks to Erica Sadum.
