[Solved ]kit Kat ring tones and notifications - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So finally got gpe 4.4 ota and realized we didn't get any of the updated ring tones or notifications. Does anyone have those on hand. I can search the n5 forum again and see if I can pull them from a dump. I noticed the lock screen sound did change.

Feeling kinda dense. Placed them in notifications, alarms and ring tones folder on root of SD but not showing up. I rebooted and nothing. Do they go deeper than that.? Haven't done this in a long time.

Some of those in the zips we already have, just with different names.

Put them in /storage/emulated/0/... in their respective folders. Worked for me using Root Explorer. Didn't even have to reboot.

Weird. I did that and nothing. They are .ogg files. Notices the Facebook notification is a different file type. It shouldn't matter. I should try it again. Maybe I overlooked the names

Weird redownloaded. Moved and unzipped the individual files into their respective folders at the root folder. Still am not seeing them. I am running the official ota gpe 4.4 ROM converted from Tmobile USA . Don't know if that makes a difference.
sent from my gpe HTC one

Figured it out! I just deleted the existing folders and recreated them. Then after placing the files they were there. Bow in just have to delete the extras. I had to do some research and found out that system doesn't read from those folders. When they are placed in new folders named alarms, ringtones, and notifications then they are read as such. I am not rooted so that may have been an issue as well as I can't change permissions on stock as others can.

Contact ringtone

Sorry there must be a simple way but i just cant find it, just shifted from an htc desire and i cant find a way to assign a ringtone to individual contacts.

You can only do it for contacts stored on the phone not google contacts sadly. You just long press a contact and then select edit and you can select ringtone.

I have contacts synced from an exchange server, guess same rule as google contacts apply.

It's a right pain in the arse... but if you want you can make a new contact on your phone or sim card using just the name!! add a ringtone, then edit, link contact, and link it to your exchange contact then it will work.. As I say a pain in the arse but the only way I found to give some of my gmail contact a ringtone!
I do not think that this is a froyo thing, ithis option was on htc desire before it was updated to 2.2, heck this ootion was on my winmo phones years ago.

Official HTC Flashlight apk

I just got my Vivid Monday and coming from the Inspire I was used to having the built in flashlight on my phone. I noticed for some reason HTC left it off this phone. Here is the HTC Flashlight apk for those would like it. To install just download and use a file manager like astro or es file explorer to install.
Awesome TYVM. I thought it was Very odd that HTC forgot and or excluded this in this phone.
Thank you very much!
Gratci

Great! Thanks! I hadn't yet noticed it was missing till I saw this thread, but I definitely would have been disappointed when I needed it.
thanks... i was using some stupid one.
Are these just like the CAB file with WM, where after we transfer them to the phone we just click on them and they auto install?
You need a file manager app like es file explorer or astro. When you click it it will ask if you want to install

Got an apk for Teeter?
Here is a Teeter apk that has always worked for me, including on non HTC devices. Not sure if it will still work with newer devices, but it is worth a shot. Just place on the sd card and install from there using a file manager.

I have yet to try it, but the main thing is if the screen resolution still works. Flashlight is a proper qHD app, so it looks like.
Trying now, will report back.
EDIT: Scales up beautifully, but the ball position is screwed up.
I'm not sure you will get this one to install, but this one is higher resolution.

[HELP] HTC Down Animation Sound

So I have a sound I want to play when I cut off my phone. Problem is, I don't know what to name it or where to put it to play alongside the htc down animation. HELP!

I don't believe a downanimation sound is enabled by default, is it?
You can try this - I've edited where it looks for the downanimation to also look for a sound. I've told it to look for a sound called htc_down.mp3 in system/customize/resource/
You can try the flashable I've posted. Rename your audio to htc_down.mp3 and, using 7zip, drop it in the system/customize/resource folder of the .zip (you can delete the placeholder that's there), and flash in recovery. Let me know..
Edit: if i would have seen your 2nd post i may not have replied... 17 views isn't a whole lot. In forums like these (especially if someone is only watching their phone's subforum), people check out all of the new threads - that doesn't mean they have something to offer. Would you rather get a bunch of posts that are useless (idk, ask google, etc), or wait for a good one?

no worries - let me know. I honestly have no idea if that'll work or not, but it's my best guess
Not sure what happened. Named it htc_down.mp3. Using ES File Explorer, I dropped it in system/customize/resource and rezipped it using first Standard, then Store compression. Rebooted to twrp, flashed and it failed, both times. Also, boot sound no longer plays. Fml lol

No need to extract and rezip. Use 7zip on a pc and just drag and drop in the correct folder in the zip and then move the modified zip to your SD card and flash

Yea I don't have a pc lol. All the complicated **** I do, I do from my Super Powered, BoRKeD phone
Edit: Everything flashed ok and everything is in the right place, it just didn't work lol. Thanks anyway Greg.
Edit Again: Nvm it worked, I had my volume down LOL!

Wallpaper and music help

So I downloaded some wallpapers from my drop box and some music but it didn't do up in my gallery or my music in the player. I downloaded es file explorer and I could see them there but I can't seem to find them in the apps..anyone having this problem? And how could I fix
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
You could just move them with es file explorer in to another folder that the apps do see.
Tried that..still doesn't work
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Same issue happened to me bro. I had no idea how to fix it. No one knew how to fix it either. Hadto reset my phone and resetting with back up gives to same result. Had to use NO back up. Kept the media files though. Try going in to sdcard/android/data and see if there is a nomedia file in there. Delete if its present. Do it from the computer or enable hidden files in whatever file explorer you use. Report here if it works. I was never able to try it.

Ok so the pictures I figured out that you have to show all albums in the gallery..one downfall is that the gallery will show everything from drop box to Facebook..music I'm going to figure it

Just realized in the gallery app you can customize what the gallery shows..don't forget to hit all pictures
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Well looks like you got an easy fix. wouldn't work for me. Mine just would not work. Whether I looked in all pictures or downloads they wouldn't appear. Quickpic could see them but not camera or gallery. Ah well doesn't do it anymore now. just hope it doesn't happen again and I have to reset once more.

Can't download using your link and if it's voice recorder app already tried to install it it doesn't work. Also want to know what HTC apps app actually does because I thought it was for downloading HTC apps but it seems to do nothing but take up space on my phone.
