Tooltip shown in jqGrid on mouse hover is nothing more as the "title" atribute of the corresponding HTML elements. If you want change tooltip with setCell:

$("#list").setCell(rowid,'Name','','',{'title':'my custom tooltip on cell'});

where the 'Name' is the column name where the tooltip will be set and rowid identify the row. For more informaion read this answer including the references.

  var setTooltipsOnColumnHeader = function (grid, iColumn, text){
      var thd = jQuery("thead:first", grid[0].grid.hDiv)[0];  
      jQuery("tr.ui-jqgrid-labels th:eq(" + iColumn + ")", thd).attr("title", text);
     };


and just set tooltip on header column

setTooltipsOnColumnHeader ($("#empgrid"), 4, "Invoice No");
setTooltipsOnColumnHeader ("GRID NAME", "COLUMN" , "TOOLTIP TEXT");
