Anyway to turn off sound on t-mobile boot screen? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

It's so loud, same with shutdown. Any way to turn it off. I know the obvious, flash another Rom but it's really the only part I'm unhappy with.

If you're rooted, just mute the power down and startup sounds. Rename them with .bak at the end or something.

Thanks I am rooted but could you explain a little more. Where can I find those sounds. I have root explorer, just not sure where to look....

Figured it out. It's in system/media/audio/ui........soooo much better now!

This is where I found them. You can use root explorer to rename them or delete them if you want. I'm not sure why there is a PowerOff.ogg and PowerOff.wav file, so I'm not sure which one or if both need to be removed. The PowerOn.ogg is here too.
system>media>audio>ui
Edit: Looks like you found it while I was typing. Congrats.

Stock lock/unlock sound

Hello all,
I really like the stock lock/unlock sound of an AOKP/AOSP lock sound. I was just wondering how I can extract it from task's AOKP build and apply it to other roms?
Thanks!
Thawte
Go to /system/media/audio/ui and get Lock and Unlock.ogg
replace in other ROMS.
Feel free to hit the thanks
Well I hit thanks because I was wondering the same thing! Thank you for the answer!

Thank you very much. I am going to work on this. I love the stock click sound ;p
Just wanted to add one more thing... Make sure to reboot after changing sound files because they are cached in the system :laugh:
I recently replaced the stock Lock.ogg and Unlock.ogg with custom files (iphone clicks) using Root Explorer. I saved the original files, just renaming them. Neither of my new sounds worked. Rebooted, powered down, still no lock/unlock sounds.
On top of not getting my replacement files to work, the stock sounds didn't work when I renamed them back to "Lock.ogg" and "Unlock.ogg" respectively. I'm a total noob just wandering in the wilderness. Any suggestions?
Quick question on this subject. I want to add the "swoosh" sound(iPhone mail sent sound) to my SGSIII. After i root my phone, how do i get that sound into the phone's notification system? Thanks for any help you can give to an absolute noobie.

Go to a file manager (root explorer, ES), find the ogg files you moved to system/media/audio/ui and change permissions of those files to rw-r--r-- then reboot and it should work fine.

Thanks for the reply, mbrian27. The permissions of the files are already set to rw-r--r--.
I'm using a custom ROM (CSROM), if that makes a difference.
Well, it gets stranger. I woke up this morning to discover that the unlock sound still does not work, but the lock sound works (These are the original sounds which I renamed briefly). Also, upon locking the device the lock sound plays twice.
I didn't perform a reboot or power down. The sound just started working by itself overnight.

[Q] Diabling Start Up/Shut Down Sounds

I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could provide assistance on how I can disable the start up and shut down tones.
You could try using this app and see if it works.
If you're rooted you can go to "system/media/audio/ui" and rename "PowerOn.ogg" to "PowerOn.ogg.bak".

I am rooted but I can't seem to figure out how to get to "system." I downloaded es filemanager and don't see it, how do I get into that folder to make the changes? Also, I want to shut off the tone on shutdown too.

I'm assuming it's the att logo? You'll have better customization, like changing boot screen too, if you load cleanrom. I just made the switch
Im guessing changing or editing the startup file will do it. Bootanimation. Zip is what custom roms use
Anyhow I notice mine is silent when my phone is on silent. So if you need temporary silence (night time) then put your phone on vibrate.

So I figured out how to get into the system files. Do I now need to hook up the phone to my computer or can I go in through the phone via es file manager and make the change? I read somewhere that the phone needs to be "mounted" but I don't know what that means so I'm hesitant to attempt making changes without being sure of what I'm doing. Can you suggest a link with good instruction or is it something you can explain?
It works great for my phone. Thanks

Help renaming system files

Hey first post and maybe a noob question but I have a rooted international m8 on o2.
I'm trying to rename the htclockscreen.apk in the system/priv-apps as I've seen doing this enables the stock aosp lock screen. Every time I do it superuser access is given but upon a reboot or refresh the filename is back to the original. The same happened when trying to rename the boot animation files.
Ive tried both root explorer and es. Anyone any ideas?
You have to mount /system as writable before you make any changes.
I believe in ES it's somewhere under Tools.
Thanks for the quick reply, just had a look under tools and can't see any option for that.
I think you turn Root Explorer on...
It's less than intuitive in es (which I don't use), but each good file manager has an option to mount system rw.

Thanks I found that, although that was already on and upon rename it says successful but it keeps just changing back. Same with root browser. Both get granted superuser.
Edit: I think this might b because I'm still S-On?

If you were S-OFF I would have suggested this thread where they give the commands to mount the /system partition but it was also mentioned later on in that thread that it "resets" after every reboot so...
Else you can probably check if this Kernel Module works for you.
I've just 'S-Off'd my device and it has solved the problem
Thanks for your help guys

Cool, Congrats and I'm glad to "hear" then :good:
Since your S-OFF you can probably look into this thread as well to get rid of that pesky "Tampered" banner in bootloader.
The fun things we can do... :good:

Completly disable all camera sounds [root] simple

Just what title says, how to completly disable sound in your camera (recording sound, shutter sound, all)
You don't have to mute all your system sounds to stop camera from making that shutter sound. You can safely disable it using CSC expert.
1) Download CSC Expert (available on google play)
2) Open the app and grant root access.
3) In the top you should see "Used features only", click on that and choose Camera.
4) Now click on Shutter Sound Menu, and type in "true" and than SAVE.
5) Reboot your system and go to camera settings, and there you will see new option called "Shutter Sound", disable that option and that is it.
[Method 2] For those that are not using Touchwiz, and for those that are using it, but just find this method easier:
Locate to /system/media/audio/ui, and rename "camera_click.ogg" to .bak.
Big thank to #Henkate for 2nd method.
Make sure to click on that report button if i helped you
There's also other way, which can be used on any ROM, unlike that app which is meant for stock Crapwiz.
Renaming camera_click.ogg to camera_click.ogg.bak or deleting it from /system/media/audio/ui, removes the camera sound. It might be different on other ROMs.
