hello,
i tried to modify my poweron and shutdown boot sounds. first i used sgs tools and sgs tools told me that the sounds changed successful, but after reboot no sound (also not the standard sound) was playing.
so i tried to rename the shutdown.ogg and poweron.wav data in the system dir. after remounting that was no problem. but i was not able to get the new sound files in the system dir because of cross device linking errors.
so i tried a symlink from sd card to system and it looks like it work. but i dont know how to enable that boot sounds again. i tried standard sound on sgs tools again. i installied silent boot and deactivated the silent boot again so that maybe the "standard" sound would play again... but no.
so, after using first the sgs tools the boot sound crashes. anybody knows a solution?
Same here.... Any help????
Factory reset and wipe all data backup first .
Question better asked in themes section .

Ever since I flash from RC2 to RC3, I can't seem to get the screen lock sound to work. It use to work when I'm in RC2. Anyone knows how can I get the sound to work?
I tried rebooting a few times but no luck so far..
Any suggestion?
Are the lock.ogg and unlock.ogg media files in /system/media/audio/ui on your phone? You can use a file manager like ES Explorer (free) to look.
Sorry for the late reply. But yes, both of the file is in there. But still, the lock sound wont appear. Tried nandroidbackup and then flash to rc3 again. Still no luck..
Hello, I would like to move my ringtones to the internal memory because I've noticed that since I started using Swap, It delays the ringtone from starting. This is what I observed, Randomly the ringtone starts after 2 or 3 vibrates, other times its not at all and uses the stock beeping ringtone (I guess since the SD is being used, it cant go in it and get the ringtone) So bottom line, My ringtones take a few seconds to ring after a few vibrates. I already know that I have to convert them to .ogg, but does anyone know another way to make the system pull up the ringtone faster?
I would like to know that myself. Im sick of having my default ringtone going when i selected a custom one for one of my contacts. whats the best settings for the ogg files too as this may be helpful to us both

Alright... So you wanna do this, here is what you will need:
*ADB Installed and working
*Root Manager of some sort
*Format Factory -This is freeware, so it's not warez.
1st, Download and install Format Factory. This is the program I use for everything. If you have one of your own preference, it can be substituded.
**Do a custom install, as this will try to install adbars otherwise. (You have been warned.)
2nd, Open Format Factory and click "All to OGG".
3rd, Select your ringtones and click "ok". On the next screen, click "Start"
4th, Open your Root Explorer program, I use Android Commander
5th, With your Root Explorer program, navigate to your newly created OGG files (normally found in Documents/FFOutput on your PC) in the Root Explorer.
6th, Move these files to /system/media/*** on your phone. And you are done.
Please note: ""***" represents the respective folders. i.e. "ringtones", "notifications", etc.
Hope this helped you. Click "thanks" if it did. - Any questions, ask.
EDIT: DO NOT change the OGG settings in Format Factory. They work fine at default. Once you get used to, and comfortable with doing this, then play with the settings to get your desired file size and quality.
I tried doing what you said, but although I successfully managed to push the files, they still don't appear in the ringtone/notifications menu

did you make sure the phone looked for new media, or restart ya phone? i had to do it with mine
I was going to say that I had checked the phone after restart and they still weren't showing up - but I double checked again and now they are. Thanks! I'm not sure how to check for new media, though - is there a procedure for this?
Been trying this using ES File Explorer but keeping getting a message that paste failed. Any ideas where i'm going wrong.
I have S-Off and root
you can try this, it a little easier if you have the tools but yoo have to reflash the rom so be sure to backup your apps, contacts blah blah blah...
1. unzip the 'rom.zip' file, open the folder and look for the system/media/audio folder
2. now you can add & remove ringtones, notifications, alarm sounds that you want or dont want...
3. zip the rom file back up
4. sign it with an auto sign program... (very simple to use)
5. flash rom and enjoy your customizations
6. restore your backed up contacts and apps...
(you can also remove some unwanted stock apps to save space, be sure not too remove system required apps though lol)
Cheers Idrifta, ended up getting it to work using Root Explorer.
o nice!!! haha good to know... better than my method lol
The following worked for me.. Check this
I followed a link and it worked for me on jfltetmo running on cm11-m9 and having twrp v2.8.4.0. I explained the steps in my answer here: How to install a ringtone into internal memory?. All the credit for the steps go to villo-2.
I rooted my cdma hero almost a week ago, and things have gone okay. I've been running cm6. however, i recently noticed my phone wasn't ringing or anything when i had the volume all the way up. It only vibrated. I figured "well maybe I accidentally applied the 'silent' ringtone" so i went to check that.. only to find that all of my ringtones were gone! I proceeded to re-download a ringtone and notification pack, and put them in the /media/audio/ringtones/ and /media/audio/notifications/ directories. Still.. No ringtones! I tried using the dev tools app to do a media scan.. it says this: "sent ACTION_MEDIA_MOUNTED to trigger the Media Scanner." Nothing else happens. nothing changes.. so i backed up anything i needed and formatted my SD card. lo and behold, after putting the ringtones back on... nothin'. Can anyone help me? I'm really screwed if i can't fix this. Thanks for taking the time to read my life story, and thanks in advance for any advice!
EDIT: I also now noticed that if i open the music app, it says "scanning SD card" and does nothing else at all.
If your missing ring tones in your rom you can reflash the rom or try a full wipe then reflash the rom. As in wipe data,cache,dev-cache and sd-ext if you have one. What recovery are you running??? And what mods are you running???
Yea it's Me Again With The
Modified Hero

Take a look at this thread. If you don't like the sounds, you may just replace the files in the flashable zip, but be sure they have the same format and name! You can still go back, if you don't like them!
I've used files in the same format and renamed them and they don't work :S
Right. The power up sounds don't work on my Galaxy S running Darky's ROM 9.5 but the power off sound does.
Power up sounds are
PowerOn.wave a wave file .
Presume the rom master removed the sounds i would ask Darky/his posts/helps/forums .

Hi.
I have a problem, which I don't know how to solve.
Of course I had a root. I have installed busy box and trickster MOD in order to disable 3D scaling to boost some games like NFSMW (Actually, it worked!).
With no rebooting I tried to delete PlusOne.apk and PlusOne.odex from system/app to speed my phone (this app running in the background all the time usses the memory). I used Total Commander mounting R/W, but didn't unmount it.
Next I rebooted my phone.
First, it was stuck on Upgrading Android - optimizing apps (i see it for two seconds on every normal boot, so I thought it may take longer this time but after 10 minutes nothing happened). I tried to do a hard reset, and afer doing it, now, the phone is stuck on lg boot animation.
Could you help me solving the problem? Please tell me what was the problem that I can avoid it in future.

due to the fact that you've played around with your /system/ partition, you've got to reflash stock again...
So, what to do?

So, i have to flash the kdz ROM using this tut: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723 ?
I understand that deleting anything from there is not a wise idea, I won't make this mistake again?
But not unmounting r/w after mounting it, is ok? Nothing should happen if I didn't delete those files from system partition?

first, yes, you've got to reflash via kdz
second, of course you can delete stuff in /system/ partition BUT you need to know what you are deleting e.g. deleting SystemUI.apk is no good idea at all you can find a "safe list" here on xda in general section
third, unmounting is a part of the shutdown process, so it happens automatically i for one never unmounted anything
