Okay, after all this time I forgot about the cool little notification sound that the EVO comes with. CM7 doesn't have it so I would like to know where I can get it or just what file to take it from on a Sense Rom, thanks my friends.
You can download a sense rom, extract the apk/sound file, then place it in CM7; or if you have a sense rom, flash to it, use root explorer / es file explorer, then locate, copy it to the sd card, then paste it in the correct location.
Look in> /system/media then look in audio, notifications, or ui
I think jacoballen22 is asking if anyone knows the location of the sound file or perhaps even the file name. I could be wrong though....

Yes, this is what I am asking and hopefully I can find it cause I'm getting bored of Numb (Piano version) as a notification ringer.

Even after transferring everything to the right spot, it isn't an .ogg file and even when I change the extension it still will not show up.

Where is the file located on the sense rom, and what is the name and original extension?

And using a root file explorer corrupts it? Because the simple copy and past should work; as its not tied into sense as its only an mp3 file.

I see, the part that I do not understand is why are all the CM7 ringers and such .ogg files? and it will not recognize the notification maybe unless I used a trimmer.
I use mp3s for notifications on MIUI, even though MIUI uses ogg files. But MIUI has a different way of choosing ringtones & notifications, which makes it easier.
Where exactly are you moving the file? And are you rebooting afterwards? If the media scanner doesn't run then it may not notice the file.
Edit:
You can also use Zedge to set your notification tones. You may have to move it to sdcard/zedge/notifications to be able to choose it from the app. I'm sure that there are other apps that allow you to choose custom mp3s for notifications.

Thanks for the info cause I just checked and it's in there now. Just needed a reboot lol. Noob life. Well sorta.
World peace with no regard for human life.
I customized the UI sounds for the SGS3: Tick Effect & Keyboard sounds with that of WP7 tick sound and customized the camera / video button sound, etc.
Make sure you rename your stock UI sounds (Example: *tick_effect) before you over-right them.

What seems to be the prob? Just download the zip to your sdcard, unzip it, open root explorer, copy and paste the apk's you want to install and copy and paste them in: Root/System/app
Should be it. *might have to install it and or change permissions*
Awesome! I had to turn off the touch clicks and, since I hate haptic feedback, it's nice to be able to regain some response in the phone's UI.
Thanks.
If you want to further customize your UI to resemble WP7 here is the font.
Should be able to just install the apk and go to settings display and set font.http://db.tt/Wmgm3nST

when i try to rename the stock ui sounds so i can ad the new ones root explore says something about bricking my device lol can anyone give me the steps to do this correctly
Use root explorer, make the directory r/w, copy the sounds into system / media / audio / ui folder.... You will (or should be if you are doing it right) be overwriting pre existing files. Once done and you have overwritten the sounds you wanted to change, reboot phone.
You may need to rename the file if you want it represent/be used for another function. For example, inside the zip file there is a file names backspace.ogg..... Say you want to use it for the TW_touch.ogg sound.... You will need to rename it and all that. Only problem is by the time you cuztomize things to the way you like, a new updated rom is put out and you have to do it again!

It's just warning you because you are editing system settings. Renaming anything in the specified folder won't cause any damage.
ok so i unzipped the file on my sd card extracted to a folder i named ui on the sd card....now when i try to copy the files and move them to the system ui folder it says copy of all files failed..i mam using es file explorer

Use Root Explorer, other file managers won't have permission to change system files. With Root Explorer you will also need to select Mount R/W to be able to write to the system folder.
Make sure you rename all the original files if you ever want to use the original sounds again...I just went back to AOSP lock/unlock sounds, the WP7 sound was a bit sharp.
all worked as soon as i got root explorer thanks guys, am dissapointed though as i am looking to get away from the drip and water sounds, i guess i want a more iphone like sound for typing and lock and unlock without having the iphone....any ideas

I assure you, you wont brick your device from just renaming a sound file. I do it all the time. Maybe its for when you try and rename a needed framework or system file.

Hey guys, I was just wondering if there was a way to change the S-pen pull out noise to a custom tone? I have the Tmo version and there is only 3 that I can choose from. Thanks in advance.
You should be able to replace the stock sounds with new files of the same names. Unsure of their exact location as I've not looked into it, but it'd stand to reason that they'd be in /system/media/ui somewhere.
Did occur to me that it'd be fun to replace them with, say, lightsaber noises. Or Steve Jobs saying "Who wants a stylus?"

I see the file under the UI folder but it seems I need to assume root, it only has read permissions. I will give it a go when theres a root for tmobile. Thanks for the reply and leading me in the right direction though. Btw you read my mind, I wanted to replace it with a lightsaber lol

Found some lightsaber power-up & power-down sounds if anyone is after them, sourced them from: http://soundfxcenter.com/sound-effects/star-wars/20 and converted to .ogg and reduced the volume so they aren't too loud.
- Go to: /system/media/audio/ui in Root Explorer (or similar app)
- [Optional] Rename Pen_att_noti1.ogg & Pen_det_noti1.ogg to Pen_att_noti1.bak & Pen_det_noti1.bak
- Extract S-Pen_Lightsaber_Sounds.zip [attached below] and copy both files to /system/media/audio/ui
- Go to System Settings -> S Pen -> Pen/attach/detach and set to Sound1
- Enjoy!
I have attached the original Pen_att_noti1.ogg & Pen_det_noti1.ogg in case you overwrote/deleted the originals instead of renaming.
This is awesome. Worked for me. Now Is there anything we can do tobincrease the volume of the spen lightsaber noise. Its very understated which is ok but I'd like it to be a little more noticeable.
I've looked into UI sound folder. there're many ui sounds and customisable.
including yours are great. many thanks. :good:

I'm afraid not. You need root access to the system files to change it.
I love the Light Saber sounds, but I included a shotgun sound to you to enjoy. This will replace notification sound #2.

Couple of questions for you...
1. Are you rooted?
2. Are you using Root Explorer or ES File Explorer?
If your using ES, you need to be sure it has root access and has the "system" folder "mounted" for writing (both in settings of ES). Also, it's not the files you downloaded that you rename, it's the original files in the /system/media/audio/ui folder you rename to .bak, then copy and paste the new ones in.

Hi
Thank you for your reply. I have my phone rooted. I tried ES. i can not highlight the Mount file system option in the root settings. Also when i click Root explorer, i get the msg that this feature can not run on my phone. I also tried the other app Explorer. When i try to change the name of the original file. i get the msg this is a read only file. So how do i proceed.thank you
I love this phone.
But, I can't turn the camera shutter sound off.
I have seen the following solutions:
Edit build.prop and set the camera sound value to =0
or
Use Camera Zoom Fx app and delete the camera_click.ogg file
I would prefer to do the former.
I guess I need to root my phone to do this - or is there an easier way?
I have never rooted a phone and I don't have a need for a rooted phone other than to be able to r/w the build.prop file.
Can I root it, edit the build.prop file, and then unroot it and have the build.prop file keep my edits?
Does anyone have any straightforward steps on how to root and then unroot this phone?
Thank you for any guidance you can provide!

I believe that you can unroot directly from the superuser app that is sideloaded via this rooting method. Once unrooted, the changes that you made should remain. If they don't for some reason, all you have to do is keep root and just deny apps that request superuser access.

You would need to root it to edit the build.prop, as it is located in system. That other way to unroot might work to keep it but if you use lgnpst it would replace all the system files, giving you your stock build.prop again. If you wanted to delete the ogg file you would still need to root for that. At least on my phone the camera_click.ogg file is located it /system/media/audio/ui directory. You could just move it somewhere else as a backup. But....being rooted is awesome

I think (once rooted) is safest to just overwrite the click sound(s) with a silent one. Then it plays but you can't hear it. works for me and any camera proggy that defaults to the system will use it too.

On the LGoG it's in: system > media > audio > ui > camera_click.ogg
It may be in a different location on other devices.
You have to be rooted in order to write over system files, but I just renamed the original to camera_click.ogg.bak and then copied the silent version in with the same original name "camera_click.ogg" less the quotes and making sure it's an ogg file too, so there is no system playback error.
Hope that helps.

I assume it's the LGoG you are attempting this with?
Mine is the first generation (incase there are other generations.)
You'll also want to verify it was overwritten. I'd try playing the sound once you do... just to be sure it's the write file.
Otherwise, you might search your device for the sound and see if it's listed elsewhere.
In case the program you are using does not have "system" write capability, I might suggest ES File Explorer.
Either way, you will have to access the settings to turn on the ability to "write" to root in order to "overwrite the file".
Additionally (if the file is changing back - or so it would seem)... be sure to check the permissions it has before you overwrite it and when you do (assuming success).. make sure to set the "new" files permissions to the same as what the old file had. Else, the OS might overwrite the "new" file with a tared (backed up) version... knowing that it's been screwed with.
It's kind of a form of protection from corruption (computer sees potentially bad file and replaces it with good file.)
Good luck and happy fourth!
Phantom camera_click.ogg
I beg your forgiveness for my ignorance, but I've never done much tweaking to file systems after a rooting... but my gf has the Sprint Optimus G and can't find the camera_click.ogg file at all using Astro File Explorer. Does anyone know any other location it may be at? As a computer technician, I'm embarrassed at my lack of know-how around the Droid OS!
Not sure if you looked at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2051384
Read the op then go to page 11 and you see there are 2 fields that need to be changed.
After you do that and reboot as it states, you will have sound when you have your volume on and no camera sound when you turn the volume down to vibrate or silent. At least that is how it is for me. I prefer it that way.
Hope this helps

Per Murphy's law, after she and I both looked for around 30 min before giving up and me posting on the forums, I downloaded the ES file explorer and found both files within seconds.

I have flashed the Whompasaurus rom onto my galaxy note 2 (Sprint) and I cannot change my s-pen sounds. I have tried to use ES explorer and go into /system/media/ui and tried to rename the Pen_att_noti2.ogg to Pen_att_noti2.ogg.bak but every attempt has failed. I checked the properties of the file and it says that the file is readable and writable. I have even tried to copy the sound (that I want) into the file and overwrite it but that does not work as well. Is the whompasaurus rom interfering with this? Am I doing something wrong? Are there special settings I must have? Any help is greatly appreciated.
P.s.: I would have posted this in the whomp forum, but it seems that I do not have enough posts, "requirements" to post into the developers thread.
I am hoping someone would shed some light onto my situation
Please and thanks!

check to make sure you root permissions enabled in ES Folder. I have to enable it every time. Just hit the menu button, Root Explorer, Mount R/W, and change the appropriate properties. It took a few a time to figure out why names and properties we're changing. The fail message is really brief and easy to miss.
