I'm using it right now on the newest cm7 nightly, suits the rom just fine .
Find the correct .ogg file, using root explorer or any other file manager move the .ogg file to system/media/ui/ and overwrite the initial one. A reboot is needed for sounds to take effect.
U can also adb push "filename.ogg" system/media/ui
/system needs to be mounted 'rw'.
Good luck!

I hadn't done this on my G2 yet when I posted the youtube link, but I just did it and it took about 20-30 seconds to do it.
I've always found that SU File Manager was easier to do this, so people should try it out.
It overwrites the file, make sure you pressed the S in the top left corner. Then just reboot after you've done everything.
Also make sure that you rename the file and delete .zip at the end.

turn up ur media volum i git mine all sorted out cheers

I tried to use this on Enoms The Official Rom...but I see no UI in media, only notifications, and that's cuz I added that one. Where is the UI folder I need to stick this in?
When I look at the .zip of the rom I can see system, media and then Notifications ringtones and UI. But just in the .zip of the rom I flashed.
Any help would be appreciated

Custom transition animations!! (REQUIRES ROOT)

okay so i dont really like sense's transition animations so i started searching for some new ones and came up with this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920024
decided to share it with the G2/DZ community cause i know some of you guys dont like sense transitions either
im using virtous unity, i dont see why it woudnt work on any other rom
REMEMBER TO MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE DOING THIS just so if you want the original transitions back or if anything goes wrong or if your rom is not compatible etc
i recommend using the metamorph method, its way easier
for those who arent familiar with metamorph u can dl it for free on the market and do the following:
1-download the transition youd like from here :
https://bitly.com/bundles/haxzamatic/1?preview=1
2-place the zip in the root of the sdcard (or any other folder you want)
3-open metamorph and select Unzip/Extract new theme
4-go to the root of your sdcard or the folder you made and select the zip
metamorph will extract the zip and a new window will pop up select close (pretty much your only choice)
5- tap where it says SubTheme: framework-res.apk
Located in /system/framework/
(Requires Reboot)
your device will reboot and there you have it new transitions!!
im using the fold ones myself and they look amazing!!

awesme.thanks

nice work. thanks

I tried this action but it did not work. I also think it screwed with the backlight on my keyboard? I realize this should happen but that is only thing I can think of that would have done it. Is there any way to reverse this?

if you restored your backup its like if you never tried this on your phone, so its something you did before or it can be due to the ROM youre using

Sent from my awesome Xperia Play with DoomKernal

still not working , but i have some progress, now the cony pc companion does recognise the model of phone but still doesnt allow me to do anything with the phone and the phone still doesnt appear in My computer but it does not show in Disk Management as a removable drive that has nothin in it

The ultimate goal is to get DooMKernal and Cyanogenmod 9 onto the phone , is this possible without usb? circumventing my current problem, the only reason i am so keen to get it sorted is to do this, the factory reset caused all manor of other issues , screen lock doesnt work, if someone is saved as a contact in the phone they cant ring me , it auto diverts to voicemail, at this point i would be happy to be able to revert to the factory rom and start again

pm commands dont stop OTA but check system/app folder to make sure that FOTAkill have proper permissions set.
Edit: Also there is another thread in here with some other choices if you have not tried them already

Just making sure. You did type su then hit enter before you put the disable code right

What rom are you running btw?
Have you backed up the rom then tried to take the update to see if it is really the ota and not something else?
Edit: Worse case scenario, I can edit the build.prop file so the ROM thinks it is a current ICS build so it won't nag you any longer either.

Im on stock rooted rom i have custom recovery so ota fails and i want to do it without editing build.prop i buy these phone broken fix them and flash to metro and sell them so i dont want to edit build.prop and miss lead the people buying them also figure out y pm disable com.samsung isnt working stupidity on my part i flash to metro so i remove the device manager.apk or it will keep trying to activate and the device manager.apk is wat that command disable i put it back then the command works but still got update notifations
This seems to work i got it from thread pmcavalier2002 linked to

1st off im sorry if anyone feel that i am hi-jacking their thread but i tried this method amongst other apks with no success im not sure why but this apk only worked for a day or so then it was back to square one so i am posting something i discovered and it defiantly worked for me and am posting to help others who like me had no success in using one of those update kill apk's this method i discovered tested and soo far has rendered success for me im not sure if it will prevent future updates after ff18 but it defiantly stopped my phone currently running stock el29 gb from updating or even asking to update to ff8 ics update you must have root
i am not responsible for anyone who screws their phones up this is just something i tried and definatly helped me so i wanted to share
my phone had already downloaded the update and kept nagging to update every 10 minutes or so when and if you try my method do not delete the ics update that will be found in the search as this method needs the update there and needs it to fail any modifications done to the system such as deleting device management , debloating ,custom bootloader should all result in a failed update attempt and this is what you want
1st obtain root of-course
2nd obtain root explorer or something equivalent
3rd from root explorer on 1st page select menue and do a search for "update"
4th look for file " /data/data/com.sprint.ce.updater/shared_prefs/com.sprint.ce.updater_preferences.xml" you will see retry mode value by default it is set to true, change it to false ( if you change any system files such as deleting device management or running custom bootloader it will fail) you want it to fail , buy changing the true value to false and allowing it to try to update even though you know it will fail it wont come back up with nagging notice to update atleast it worked for me hope helps someone else out there p.s after failed update attempt it may get stuck in bootloader with triangle or something just do battery pull then reboot then voila no more annoying msgs asking to update ,nearly a week now and no pop ups for me

[Q] Copy and Paste Broken

So there have been posts about this in the past but none of them have been ansewered recently so i figured i'd ask again...
My T-Mobile Galaxy S3 is fine, but my girlfriends is messed up. She can't copy and paste. I just tried it my self. Holding down on say, for example, a url in chrome, and tapping copy causes chrome to force close.
I understand the only ways to fix it at this point seem to be factory reset (really a major pain in the ass... what with having to reenter all her info and passwords and everything) or rooting and then do a list of commands i found on various threads (really don't want her to have to root her brand new phone that is otherwise running great).
this really sucks. anyone know any newer methods to fix this? it's really ridiculous.

You could flash one of the official firmwares via odin. This will basically rewrite the system and a few other partitions while leaving data intact. If somethings corrupted on the system side, this should fix it by overwriting with good uncorrupted files.
And if you haven't updated to UVALJ4 yet you could get that at the same time.
If its something in the user data partition, then finding the responsible app and clearing data/cache may work. Otherwise you'd have to factory reset...
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

You need to be rooted though to do this.
Do this and it should work.
1. boot recovery (CWM) > advanced > wipe cache
2. reboot phone > Root Explorer > delete /data/clipbord/*
3. reboot recovery again > advanved > fix permissions
4. reboot phone > it's fine

those are the exact commands i was talking about, but we don't want to root our phones. anyone have any ideas how to fix it without rooting or doing a full factory reset. such a stupid issue for a phone to have

oh i'm sorry, that's my bad i thought that flashing odin thing had to do with rooting or something. thanks, i'll look into that... one thing though is she just got the newest ota update last night and that didn't fix the problem. is that a bad sign that this might not work?

You can flash the stock firmware with odin without root.
Not necessarily, if there's a corrupted system file the ota simply may not have patched it, or patched a different part of it leaving the root cause of the problem intact. Keep in mind, my suggestion may not help at all. Its just another option for you in trying to find a fix.
