[Q][AUDIO] USB Cable Custom Sound? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I've been playing with getting custom sounds on my phone, I was wondering if there was anyway to do custom sounds for plugging and unplugging the USB Cable?
The Sounds I want are:
Plugging in
Sturdy Cable Wav
Sturdy Cable Ogg
Unplugging
Yoink Wav
Yoink Ogg
I put both the wav and ogg formats 'cause I have know idea which one it is.
Also, is there a way to combine it with the install of start and shutdown sounds?

Thanks! Eventually I want to get a whole theme done, but I know I'll be asking a TON of questions, hah!

Volume auto-lowers on headphone insert?

Connect your phone to a stereo with a standard 3.5mm audio cable and set media volume to max. Play some music, eject the cable, plug it back in, resume playing music. For some reason the audio volume is automatically lowered. Increasing it back to max works just fine but you do get a notification saying "Loud music may harm your hearing if you listen to it for a long time" while you do that.
I only listen to music in my car using aux 3.5mm. I control volume using the headunit and this "feature" is annoying as heck.
Any way to disable the volume auto-lowering?
thats the way all of them work, also was the same on old galaxy s device. happens on ipad also.
i think the reason is they dont want you blowing your brains out when you plug your headphones in if you forgot to turn down the media volume before you unplugeed them
I've been in HTC world for past 5 years and never had a need for such feature... all I'm trying to figure out is how to disable this on my new sammy ​
I listen via the 3.5 port in my car and can confirm the original Epic 4G did NOT behave this way. (At least not when running stock--Voodoo drivers did do this by default but you could override them.)
It pisses me off too and the NS4G never did this when I had it. I can live with it but just annoying.
I solved it through tasker. Not elegant, but it works.
true, also a hack... solves one problem but creates another. when i DO use headphones i set volume low and taking 3.5mm out and back in resets volume to max. ouch
i wonder if there is a way in Tasker to simply re-set volume to whatever it was just before 3.5mm was inserted.
Yea, you can do this. Create a variable to hold the volume, update it whenever the media volume is changed. When headphones are plugged it, just set the volume based on the variable. Imo, this wouldn't help much though. If you insist on playing media at max volume through your car, you're still going to blow up your ears when you plug in headphones.
I'd recommend setting the volume offset on your stereo (slack on some radios, I think) to be ideal when the phone is at the reduced volume. This is what I do.

the issue at hand is a bit more complex. consider this scenario:
i'm in a car driving and someone calls me.
i pop out the 3.5mm and answer the call.
once done talking, i pop 3.5mm back in and resume music.
now the volume is NOT what it was since sgs2 lowered it automatically trying to "save" my hearing.
similar story happens when i get out of my car for few minutes and upon coming back in i constantly have to turn the volume back up.
changing the in-car headunit volume is not helping since my cell is not the only device used there. there is built-in radio, built-in cd player, other portable players, etc that i (and others) use. no need to tweak main system just because one of many devices is being an #!$le about media volume.
ugh, still looking for a right solution. i'll go ahead and try to mess with tasker but that will be just patching the problem, not solving it

Car Audio Out?

In my car, there is a USB port that allows devices to be connected with audio out. If i connect an iPhone through usb, I can hear the audio output, as well as use the buttons on the steering wheel to skip songs and such.
Now, for my GS2, I want to be able to do the same, but I can not find a cable anywhere. There are the official samsung docks, but they will not fit with my case. I am simply looking for a cable that does the same thing. I have seen a DIY guide on how to make your own, but I would like to simply purchase one
Can anybody point me in the right direction?
no, thats the problem with decks and icrap software. your best bet is to get a deck that can read mass storage and create a music folder on you card and just navigate to that. or get a deck with bt audio and stream it. you can control the music through the deck. I have a Kenwood deck that does this.

[Q] Line-in recording

Does anybody know of a way one can record sound from the headphone jack on the DHD? I want to record something from a line out and I figured to connect it to my phone using the 2xRCA-3.5mm cable, but couldn't find an app for it... Anyone found a way?

any sound recording app will do it, u just have to feed the audio into the mic ring on the connector. cant just feed audio backwards into an amplifier and record it. you will only get mono recording ability though.
Got a scheme/picture which ring is the mic ring? And can it take line-out/record-out loudness, or do I have to cut it down? Also, I'm pretty sure that when I plug in normal headphones which don't have a microphone the DHD uses its own, how exactly does it recognize a plugged in mic?
Im not sure offhand which it is. id dig around in google, any of the standard headsets work as its a standard for which ring is the mic. im just at work and dont have the moment to search it out. line out volume sohuld work fine, but any amplified or even headphone outputs could be too much for it.
i had an adapter i made for hooking my guitar to my ipad a while ago but dont know where i put it lol.
Nice, guess I'll get into researching, one more thing for me to play with...
Thank you for your time...

[Q] Adding sounds for plugging in USB/ charging?

Is there any way that I can add sounds for plugging in the USB cable or charging? Don't you have to add some .ogg files to system/media/ui for our to work? And if you do what must you name them? I'm also on aosp.

You could rename the .ogg sound to whatever the one for the plugging in usb sound is. Paste it in to system/media/audio/ui. For example, say you want to use a car horn. Use a car horn .ogg, rename it to the sound you want to replace.

But on aosp there isn't a. Ogg file for plugging in the charger, so I have to create a new file for plugging in the USB or charger. But I don't know what I need to name that file. For example if I wanted to use the car horn. Ogg what would I have to rename it to to use it as a USB/charger connected sound?

[Q] Mixer Path mods

Greetings everyone, i have a issue well actually more a dislike with my phone i would like to solve it using the mixer path xml file if possible.
First off i have a D852 running Cloudys Rom.
And when im in my jeep and i plug in a aux cable the phone automatically disables the Phones microphone so when i receive a call i can answer and hear the person but they cant hear me cause the mic is disabled .
What i would like to have the phone do is instead of calling the aux cable profile from the mixer path when a aux cable is plugged in i would like the phone to call the headphone or wired headset profile so that way the microphone stays enabled while the aux cable is plugged in.
From what i have read it seems that soundsabout app seems to accomplish the same thing but its a third party app
So does anyone think this is possible trough mixer path xml or am i completely unaware of how this actually works.
Thanks for all your help.
By looking at the mixer path file i see that there are multiple "profiles" such as hand set , voice-headset mic, speaker-and -headphones, and so on . but i have yet to figure out which one is called upon then the aux cable is plugged in.
Here is the mixer path file included in cloudy`s rom.
Thanks
Bump ?
