Hi, guys.
How I can switch off this annoying camera sound? I try to find some keys in registry, but can't find some useful. From camera menu I can't switch off sound, just choose from 4 variants of it.
Thanks for assistance.
you can switch it of in the camera menu...
Not necessarily...
Sony removed the "sound off" option in the newest NAM R2A ROM
Legal issues I guess
guess so too.
there was a political discussion 'bout that. taking pictures of peeing womans or so without makeing a noise ... im somwhat sure that this was the work of an american politician.
I think it has to do with this new law:

what happens if you change the name of sounds.blob to something else?

hmmm... upskirts ??

Why not just turn off your ringer before taking the picture. Then the speaker is disabled and voila, no camera sound.

No need for X1 (R2A), just delete sounds.blob
Either:
- Overwrite sounds.blob with a 0kb file or delete it (whatever works for you)
- Or set HKLM\Software\SonyEricsson\Camera\PROPERTY_PHOTO_SHUTTER_SOUND to value 4.
- Or turn down system volume to 0.
Disables the shutter sound.

Because the camera sound is something I newer want, so why not remove it. So anyway. There is a solution so all this posts that is posted now is unnecessary. Like mine
All I did was choose Camera Sound 4, there's no noise. I'm running UK R2 btw.
Which file contains the sound for auto focus? The sound is too loud. I would lower the volume of the sound file or even delete it completely.
I sometimes forget to turn off the phone volume and that sound is too noisy!

Actually this works just great for me. I figured out my keyboard problem is due to something else. Thanks very much for the help on disabling the shutter sound. Now if only we could get rid of the autofocus sound too! =)
Well I'm not sure what's up but my dtmf tones are so quiet i have to put my ear to the speaker to hear them. Does anyone know where the DTMF tones are located so i can extract them and see how the sound on my PC? If they are indeed quiet natively somehow, I can always edit them and adb push them back, but I just cant seem to find where they are located.
I wonder if it somehow has to do with me using meltus's audiohack. (Using V2 w/v6 update) I've reset it back to the stock files, but it didnt seem to change anything from the DTMF standpoint. So maybe its another app causing this.
Thank god for nandroid. At least it resolved the issue. But i cant help wonder what app caused my dtmf tones to be almost inoperable.

Sounds very interesting. I'm not too savvy on ringtone formats, but are you talking about the stock ringtones that come with the build you're using? You might want to go out and find the collection of every ringtone from every build and put that on your SD card, see if those work just as well.
It very well could be a app modifying things, but I find that unlikely because they have to go into the system root folders...hmmph.
Can you play music at a normal level from the speaker?
He's talking about touch tones, not ringtones. And for the original question.. I don't know, but I'd hazard a guess that DTMF is generated by software (they are pretty simple, as far as tones go) rather than recorded. I haven't seen the media anywhere. Check with meltus to see if he has discovered anything that may affect DTMF? Doubt the tones themselves are at fault, but probably something to do with the mixer / volume control.
hey guys, I really don't like the keyclick sound that is Default for the Captivate. I don't want to turn it off, I would like to find/use a replacement.
Can anyone tell me how to replace this sound file? Also were is a good place to find replacements?
I can tell you how, but not where to find a replacement.
1) Grab a terminal emulator or Root Explorer (I prefer Root Explorer myself for this one).
2) Navigate to /system/media/audio/ui
3) If I'm correct in assuming that you mean the keyclick sound from browsing around menus and such in the phone then the file you want is "Effect_Tick.ogg"
4) Copy it to your sd card, and then to your computer and edit/replace it as you see fit. Just make sure it's the same audio length as the old one. Save it as an .ogg file or it won't work on the phone.
5) When putting it back onto the phone, make sure you make a BACKUP of the old one. Just rename the one that's already there with a ".bak" at the end. Then paste in your editing file.
6) Reboot and test it out.
Hope that works. I made that up off the top of my head cause I'm not about to try it out myself cause I turned the sound off in the settings. But it should work as that's the usual method of replacing any file on the phone. Good luck, let me know how it works out for you.
You are the man!!! That worked fantastic! I wasn't actually looking for the Effect_Tick, it was the TW_Touch sound that I wanted to replace, I found it in the folder by listening to them and figuring out which one it was.
THank you again, at least I know how to change something next time if needed
Wow, thank both of you. Never thought of changing the sound, but that would be hilarious to have a pew or pow sound. Think ofbeing a kid with two army men. Thanks guys.

Glad I could help. Also, FWIW, TW_Touch.ogg and Effect_Tick.ogg are the same sound. The only difference is the name, which actually makes TW_Touch a few bytes bigger.

Still trying to find some good ones. I am currently using the SIP.ogg sound found in the same folder as the others. Its more of a soft click sound. I am still looking for a really nice replacement though, so if anyone of you find one please share, as I will do the same.
You know the keyboard isn't making a click sound with Cog Rom. I wonder if its turned off somewhere in the ROM because I have keyboard clicks turned on but hear nothing.
I like to have regular dial tone for the dial key pad. Know how to fix this?
They are regular. The sound the same as every other phone I've used.
What do you really mean?
I used to have iphone 4 and the tone for each dial keypad little different sound

I would try and get them for you, but I haven't the slightest clue on how to convert the .caf file the iPhone uses to .ogg for Android. But looking around, there are some cool mods for dial tones out there. I found this one and now I want to do it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J4RfiTi08Q

I FOUND A WAY!!!!
If anyone can provide with me a copy of the iPhones dial tone sounds, I can format them for our Captivates. Based off of what I'm seeing from my iTouch, the directory layout should be /System/Library/Audio/UISounds. I need all the files that start with dtmf. There should be 12 files in total.
Edit: I did the Daft Punk mod to my phone and it works great! I'm attaching the zip with the .ogg files inside and already renamed so you can just drop them on the phone. Remember to back up the original!

HA. Wrong. These are in iPhone format and not for our phones. My zipfile is for our phones.
I was just linking to the sounds you were looking for.
Anyhoo for some reason my keys don't make any sounds when i press them, any idea why? Would love to replace the stock sounds with the daft punk ones.
edit: n/m fixed that, now to load those daft punk sounds
Beat me to the answer, it's a seperate setting in the Sounds Menu. But now you know that yourself. I'm probably going to make a tutorial thread for this elsewhere in the forums in case anybody else is interested
The sounds seem to be mixed up, they don't match the keys in the video, seems like he rearranged them after posting that zip file. Trying to sort them now but its a pita since mpc barely plays them.
I know what you mean. I didn't bother trying to put them in the right order. It's just fun trying to play the song.
And smeltn, I'm writing up my tutorial on how to change the dial tone sounds and whatnot now and I'm giving you credit for the idea. Cause if not for you, I wouldn't have even bothered to do any of this.

HAHA thanks. Its fun playing around with them now that we know what to do. I just can't wait to see other peoples sounds.
Recorded file of the ringtone I asked is attached.
It's in Messaging / Gmail / Email -Settings-Notification settings-Select ringtone-scroll up2top
u will probably see a "Default Ringtone". -- which is not listed in system settings-sounds-notifications.
A friend of mine asked me to send this ringtone to him, but rookie like me cannot find where the ringtone file actually is. ..... already tried /system/media/
well it may be stupid but can someone help me find it?
Seems that both froyo & gb roms contain this ringtone. Searched several pages for it but still got no answer.
From your home screen:
Press the Menu Button
Select Settings
Select Sound
Select Notification Ringtone
This is your Default Notification Sound. If you want your messages to make a different sound than the default notification that it uses for everything else (email, updates, etc.) you would change it in the menu you listed. The "Default Ringtone" is simply a pointer.
Thanks for reply but afraid it's not what I need. I know I can change it to everything else .
My point is to get this exact ringtone file --which sounds a little boring . /_\

The default ringtone is not a certain file. It is whatever your ringtone that you set through the menu steps I wrote.

Dude you are completely missing the question.
OP
I just looked in /system/media/sounds/ringtones
And notifications, I didn't find it either, but I don't have a "default ringtone" option at the top either...
But why do you need to extract it? You have the sound right there in your first post? Just convert it to .ogg format and drop it in your friend's phone where it should go...

that's a recorded one not a lossless one as he requests..
sounds silly but I also like to find out.
I tried Serendipity_6.4 & continuum 5.41 they both have this default ringtone (difference is S has it as phone Ringtones, C has it as notification sound.
).
There are some posts here about people had set to another ringtone but sometime still heard this default one ringing , in lately builds of roms.
I notice the /system/build.prop does specify ro.config.ringtone and ro.config.notification_sound. Perhaps this would be the file name you're looking for.

Here is another twist for you. On Cog 4.4.2 my default notification is NOTHING. It doesn't make any sound at all.
All I can say at this point is to play every notification/ringtone file on your phone and see if you can find it.

Listening to the sample I believe this is the one you're looking for.
If it's not then let me know and I'll find the right one.

sounds it is! THX! and still I wanna know where it hides in ROM. If u know that pls tell.
I'm not sure if it varies by ROM but that specific one that I found was in "framework-res\res\raw\fallbackring.ogg".

Is there any way to change the built in Samsung click sound? You know, the sound you here everytime you tap on a new applications, opens a new mail in gmail or what ever. I know that you can turn it off in the settings menu, but I want to change the sound to one of my own. Is it possible? And If that's the case, how do I do it? Is it as simple as locating the sound file in the Note, and replace it with my sound and name it exactly the same?
EDIT:
I think I found it. The system files are located in system/media/audio/ui
I'm about to back those files up, and replace them with mine. I know I have found the right files, cuz when i renamed the "lock.ogg" to "1lock.ogg", the sound went away.
Lets give it a shot!
EDIT 2: Success! Will be working on some nice modifications now.
Thats great!! Im actually planning to do this also... By the way, would it work if i woulf just change the filename extension to .ogg? Or should i use some software to convert from mp3 or wav to ogg to use on the phone?

That i dont know. I consverted some wav files to .ogg files. But hey, give it a try. Just remember to back things up before you mess with any system files.
