Q: Where are the notification sounds located?

I need someone familiar with the phone to tell me where/location the notification sounds are located.
I restored a backup and it seems that I have 2 of everything. Would like to delete the extras.
Thanks in advance.

Lock Sound

When i first got the phone I could hear a sound when the phone locked. However, after i updated to 2.3.3 (it bricked half way through(pc companions fault ¬_¬)) this was gone and i just updated to 2.3.4 and it still isn't there...Was this removed :
If so, is there a way to restore it?
EDIT- Also facebook seems to be chewing up 30mb + of ram now...I've tried removing anything related to facebook from the phone via titanium backup and then installing fb via the market but i get the same thing...

u would have to root ur phone,extract the attachment and put these into system/media/audio/ui and change the permissions to how the others are
This worked for me!! And u will have to turn it on in settings/sound/screen lock sounds
ENJOY!!

Just checked system/media/audio/ui and the audio file for locking still seems to be there "lock.ogg" ... So i'm guessing its just not incorporated into the system or is disabled somehow...

you could just use widgetlocker. that has lock and unlock sounds plus tons of lock slider options

Yep ended doing that

Anyway to turn off sound on t-mobile boot screen?

It's so loud, same with shutdown. Any way to turn it off. I know the obvious, flash another Rom but it's really the only part I'm unhappy with.

If you're rooted, just mute the power down and startup sounds. Rename them with .bak at the end or something.

Thanks I am rooted but could you explain a little more. Where can I find those sounds. I have root explorer, just not sure where to look....

Figured it out. It's in system/media/audio/ui........soooo much better now!

This is where I found them. You can use root explorer to rename them or delete them if you want. I'm not sure why there is a PowerOff.ogg and PowerOff.wav file, so I'm not sure which one or if both need to be removed. The PowerOn.ogg is here too.

Edit: Looks like you found it while I was typing. Congrats.

Stock lock/unlock sound

Hello all,
I really like the stock lock/unlock sound of an AOKP/AOSP lock sound. I was just wondering how I can extract it from task's AOKP build and apply it to other roms?
Thanks!
Thawte

Go to /system/media/audio/ui and get Lock and Unlock.ogg
replace in other ROMS.
Feel free to hit the thanks

Well I hit thanks because I was wondering the same thing! Thank you for the answer!

Thank you very much. I am going to work on this. I love the stock click sound ;p

Just wanted to add one more thing... Make sure to reboot after changing sound files because they are cached in the system :laugh:

I recently replaced the stock Lock.ogg and Unlock.ogg with custom files (iphone clicks) using Root Explorer. I saved the original files, just renaming them. Neither of my new sounds worked. Rebooted, powered down, still no lock/unlock sounds.
On top of not getting my replacement files to work, the stock sounds didn't work when I renamed them back to "Lock.ogg" and "Unlock.ogg" respectively. I'm a total noob just wandering in the wilderness. Any suggestions?

Quick question on this subject. I want to add the "swoosh" sound(iPhone mail sent sound) to my SGSIII. After i root my phone, how do i get that sound into the phone's notification system? Thanks for any help you can give to an absolute noobie.

Go to a file manager (root explorer, ES), find the ogg files you moved to system/media/audio/ui and change permissions of those files to rw-r--r-- then reboot and it should work fine.

Thanks for the reply, mbrian27. The permissions of the files are already set to rw-r--r--.
I'm using a custom ROM (CSROM), if that makes a difference.

Well, it gets stranger. I woke up this morning to discover that the unlock sound still does not work, but the lock sound works (These are the original sounds which I renamed briefly). Also, upon locking the device the lock sound plays twice.
I didn't perform a reboot or power down. The sound just started working by itself overnight.

Completly disable all camera sounds [root] simple

Just what title says, how to completly disable sound in your camera (recording sound, shutter sound, all)
You don't have to mute all your system sounds to stop camera from making that shutter sound. You can safely disable it using CSC expert.
1) Download CSC Expert (available on google play)
2) Open the app and grant root access.
3) In the top you should see "Used features only", click on that and choose Camera.
4) Now click on Shutter Sound Menu, and type in "true" and than SAVE.
5) Reboot your system and go to camera settings, and there you will see new option called "Shutter Sound", disable that option and that is it.
[Method 2] For those that are not using Touchwiz, and for those that are using it, but just find this method easier:
Locate to /system/media/audio/ui, and rename "camera_click.ogg" to .bak.
Big thank to #Henkate for 2nd method.
Make sure to click on that report button if i helped you

There's also other way, which can be used on any ROM, unlike that app which is meant for stock Crapwiz.
Renaming camera_click.ogg to camera_click.ogg.bak or deleting it from /system/media/audio/ui, removes the camera sound. It might be different on other ROMs.
