Update: attached file - sorry
-----
Ok, the DHD speaker is crap, so at least we need some good sound replacements for the (also) crappy system sounds. Here's a start: the screentap sound from the galaxy tab/s
Unpack and replace the Effect_Tick.ogg in the system/media/audio/ui directory
Of course you need full (s-off) root for this.
****, I forgot to post the file.... Will do that tomorrow

I've done some searching for trying to add sounds to the boot animations, and found something about adding a boot.mp3 in the animation zip or something like that (not sure if it was for root only), which didn't seem to work for me. Is this possible without root, and if so how? Thanks, and hope this is posted in the right section.
yep, just make a sound file, name it boot.mp3 and throw it into the zip folder.
I've tried that on a non-rooted 2.1 eris, the boot animation works but the boot.mp3 that i added wouldn't play. Not sure why, tried some other things also with no luck.
I've also tried just throwing a boot.mp3 into a rooted 2.1 phone's boot animation, and it seems the same there too, the boot animation loads but the sound doesn't. Does anyone have a boot animation with sound working on a 2.1 phone? Looks like they done away with the sound from the default boot when switching from 1.5 to 2.1... looked like in 1.5 it worked off a bootscreen folder and xml file etc.. and 2.1 with the bootanimation.zip with a different setup etc..
From what I know, the sound will not work unless the desc tells it to play the sound... was there sound with the original bootanimation? If there was, you might try pushing the original files back and then trying... maybe in pushing the animation .zip, you overwrote the desc that told the phone to play the sound.. from what I have seen, the bootanimations that play sound have script in the desc file that tell it to play the sound....

the desc.txt i've seen don't have anything telling it to play the boot mp3 just the size, framerate, and folders... you wouldn't happen to know what needs added in into the desc txt would you? Don't think i've seen any boot animations with sound to check the desc. txt, mostly the ones i've seen with sound are based on the xml file type.

You are right, I just checked and it was a .xml file... what does yours use? a desc?

Yeah mine is a desc. and it seems the ones which use the xml won't work with 2.1.
did yours originally make sound?
Not after upgrading to 2.1.
I see the problem... sorry.. I am at a loss...
np, thanks for trying.
Can someone try pushing their boot sound to /data/local and name the file android_audio.mp3 and see if it plays then?

Is there any way to put the stock captivate boot screen animations and sound back on the Captivate after installing cognition? I'm not too big of a fan of the cognition boot screen.

I have the stock bootanimation.zip. I'll upload the file when I get off work. Just drop it into system/media/ named as bootanimation.zip. As far as the boot sound goes, nobody to my knowledge has had any luck with that. Everything I have tried to restore custom/stock bootsounds has failed.
Thank you very much!

Minor difficulties. The bootanimation.zip file I have for the true stock animation is corrupted and I'm not having any luck fixing it.
I've attached two alternatives though. The first file is the SGS bootanimation that has been optimized for a smaller screen. It works fine, but it is smaller than it would normally be.
The other is a modded version with a BIOS boot intro followed by the SGS boot animation (full sized). In my opinion, its pretty freakin sweet. Credit to specialex and LitePro. This one is their work, not mine.
Either way, download, rename to bootanimation.zip and drop it into system/media folder using root explorer or a comparible file manager app.
Thanks man. The BIOS style one looks sick. It seems that you can restore a bootsound through SGSTools, but when I set a random .ogg notification sound as the shut down sound, it played it in a never ending loop. I'll try and tinker with it some.

Yea, I had no luck working with SGS Tools and the boot/shutdown sound changer. It works great on stock 2.1 w/ root (I tested it the last time I flashed back to stock- rocking the "droid" voice on boot for a while).
Unfortunately, it never worked for me on custom roms. Even tried .mp3 and .oog files instead of .wav just for the hell of it. I think the issue has to do with the playlogos1 file that the devs modify to kill the default shutdown/startup sounds. I'm going to try SGST again though... its been a while and that app has been updated 4 or 5 times since I last tried.
Well, I found the shutdown.ogg file from the JH7 OTA .zip file and yes, it did work through SGSTools! If I find the original boot animation in one of these folders it'll be back to stock appearence Now whether or not I want to do that is the question hehehe....
EDIT: Turns out only the shutdown sound was working. Im doing a Rom Manager backup now, but my plan is too remove the bootanimation.zip file and restore the factory playlogos and playlogos1 files back to system/bin and see what happens.
EDIT 2: Well that didn't work... I found two other files called bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg and seeing if those work.
EDIT 3: No luck there either. I wonder if it is possible at all to restore the boot animation and sound, and what the developers did to remove it. Its very interesting...
Here's a copy of the stock bootanimation.zip. Credit to whoever I got this from. Personally I like the BIOS one
Hello people of XDA,
I'm in a sticky situation. I want to add a boot sound on my Bionic, it isn't working. I'm running Eclipse 2.1 (.901) and have the boot animation running perfect but sound is not coming through.
I downloaded a mp3 file, converted it to .ogg and placed it in the /system/media/audio/notifications folder (Renamed it to Bionic.ogg) and I have the animation in /system/media named bootanimation.zip
I found this tutorial over on the Droid X2's side ( here ) and edited the desc file and added "s Bionic.ogg" to the line.
I rebooted multiple times and still no luck. Help please!
I found the solution to this HERE you need a different bootanimation file under system/bin and save your audio as android_audio.mp3 in /system/media
I'm trying to change the UI sounds like the touch sounds and the lock/unlock. I've replaced them in system/media/audio/ui but they aren't changing. Any ideas why they won't change? Thanks.

Make sure they are properly named and have proper permissions. I have changed many sound on my phone also make sure they are .ogg format. Also you should rename the original file to add .bak incase you want to revert back, just drop the added extension.
Here's the site to convert to .ogg

Yeah even when I do all that it doesn't work.

Ah. Looks like I'm replacing the wrong sounds. Unlock isn't the unlock sound. Silly me.

hi guys,
big problem:
the camera "shutter sound menu" is not shown on LOLLIPOP!!! i found this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2795566
but nothing of this tips will work (no feature.xml, no others.xml AND NO ´/system/csc/´ folder exists. deleting the OGG files in the media folder will also not work). i think this will work on KK only. so i open a new thread for a lollipop-solution.
does a mod exist to enable the camera shutter sound menu ??? I HATE THE CAMERA-SOUNDS (click,click,click,click,click..... and all eyes on you); TERRIBLE!
regards,
chris

nobody an idea????
You can just rename or delete the shutter sound inside system/media.
no way! after restarting the cam-app the files will be replaced.

Thats not true, I've done it. The system cant create a new audio file. Use root explore and rename all the camera click sounds in the system media folder. It really is that easy.

sorry, it doesn´t work. i deleted the files with root-explorer, but the sounds are not silent.
i toke a look into the "samsungcamera3.apk". the sounds are stored in this apk-paket. i think that´s the problem.

This was what I was referring to but you can try wanam xposed for lolipop it has the option to remove the click sound. Requires xposed framework also.
