I honestly thought that I would find an answer for this but apparently I truly am "special" or weird in this one. I am brand new to the world of rooting and roms and currently have the latest version of Cleangb running on my epic. Fantastic rom and a giant thanks to any and all involved. One thing that has always driven me crazy about the epic is whenever you lose your signal or regain your signal there is an audible sound. I am sure getting rid of it is as easy as just deleting the audio file for it but I have done some searching through the root directory and cannot find the audio file for it. Does anyone know the location of this file? Also is it safe to delete or does one need to replace it with a blank audio file?

/system/media/audio/ui the file should be in here. i am on cm9 so i cant tell you the exact name of file. i dont like sounds other than ringtone, notification and alarm so i delete the entire ui folder and all unused ringtones etc.

I took a look at the CleanGB zip and searched the ui folder and found no sounds there...And an extensive Google search netted the same results. Seems the question has been asked a bunch of times across multiple forums and devices, but no has responded with a clear answer. Maybe one of our devs out here can find the solution. Although I am really starting to think it is possibly built into the ROM framework, instead of just a notification sound...
It has been attempted by our best devs. It is cooked into the TW ROM to where it has never been found.

I will try just moving the entire ui folder out and see if that does anything and report back. If that doesn't work then yeah hopefully one of the devs can clarify if it is built into the rom. Thanks for the posts everyone.
And then throw on an AOSP ROM like CM7 and problem solved.

I would like to try CM7 at some point but I am a little apprehensive about it at the moment. What led me to root and put a new rom on was how disgusted I was with the constant freezing of stock. CleanGB appeared to look the most stable of any out there. Since I use easytether a lot I liked that the mobile hotspot was also unlocked. Correct me if I am wrong but CM7 does have some tethering issues does it not? It just seemed like there were a few more issues associated with it than CleanGB at this point. I am open to convincing though!

Somehow I missed your reply. That clear it up quite a bit though. My only question though is CleanGB is based of of GB and not TW so does that mean he just cooked it into the GB rom as well?

CleanGB is based off TW stock. It's not AOSP Gingerbread, it just has the TW apps removed.

I just rooted my phone and the first ROM I installed was Paradox. Yada yada yada it all went fine. I fixed the "error 492" but now some odd things are happening.
1.) My Google Search widget switched from the default ICS look to the standard white/gray look. Why is that?
2.) When I get a new message it does not notify me with a sound or vibration. I downloaded GO SMS Pro to solve it but frankly that app pisses me off. Also, the default messaging doesn't give you an option to attach a file. There are plenty of ways to get around it but why not the option?
3.) What alternate ROM do y'all recommend I get? I enjoy the absence of TouchWiz on this one which is why I went for it but I think there may be better ones out there.
Tuesday, BeastMod, juggernaut, and slickmod are all good roms.. Be on the the lookout for a new rom about to hit in a couple of days. Or an update of an old ROM, that's gonna be killer.

Update
Problem 2 is completely solved. I had to change some things in the settings of the message app.
Not sure if this is the right place to post this - sorry in advance.
I'm looking for a flashable MMS.apk or .zip that would give me the stock ICS messaging app with SMS splitting that works.
The only ROM I know that has this working properly is Apex. Every other ROM I've tried either doesn't have the option to split, or does have the option, but it doesn't do anything.
I've searched the forums and could only find themed mms.apks to use. It looks like a few others are looking for a solution to this as well. Has someone posted on this before? If so, please send me in the right direction.
First off it works on codename and it works on markVis's super charged roms, and this should be in general not development, sometime you have to go to settings in messaging and turn SMS split on

Was on CNA for weeks, and a few different versions at that. It was brought up in the threads there, too. Currently using AOKP right now. Will check out markVis's, so thanks for that suggestion.
In my OP, I was saying that some ROMs have the option, but it doesn't "do anything," meaning that the app will still work as if it wasn't checked in the settings. I've re-wiped, re-flashed, and the whole shibang.
If a moderator can move this thread, that would be cool. I'm still (relatively) new here.
The ones in this thread work fine for me. They're based on the one originally posted in oics.

Is that the stock mms.apk from the rom or from a theme you installed? I haven't used codename but the problem reported by the user is something reported on aokp and being that a lot of roms will use features from others I would suspect other roms could easily have the issue. The only mms that has properly worked for me is the one originally released with oics.

if you were on two different roms and it didnt work on either, then it probably is safe to say its not the rom.
try the link to denverg's mms.apk's they have saved me in the past when i didnt want to mess with the 160split problem. but over the past couple of months, i have been on CNA and AOKP almost exclusively and have not had any problems with split. make sure you dont restore data the next time you flash a rom. flash it and test the split, then restore whatever data and see if that breaks it. that will tell you if its the rom or your data. my 2 cents fwiw
oICS is the only rom I've used where the split actually worked. Its the reason it took me forever and a half to leave that rom lol. I'm a big texter and its annoying as hell not having the split, specially when the option to turn it on is laughing in your face lmao. Btw I'm as well on AOKP b28 and would love to see this actually work.

I saw these earlier, but thought that they were all themed? They all say "Inverted" on the .zip files. Do I just download the ones that say "Stock", too? And GI or BI (wut?).
They are all inverted. Probably the only place to find the white background would be in the oics thread by aosp. Gi or bi just indicates the color of the icon. Green or blue.

That wasn't what he was implying, for me it's worked on every Rom I've used except for one, and I'm a flashaholic I flash a lot of roms , it could simply be an issue of not doing a full wipe or something
Thought I'd mention split also broke for me on aokp, option is there but no dice. Worked like a charm in oICS..

It says you only have one post. Did you make an account just to post this? That's AWESOME.
Will test this tonight when I get in from work.
Is there anyways I can get this working on the gs2 without running a custom rom and staying stock? I've been looking and didn't find anything. Just did it for my friends gs3 and it worked perfectly. Can't find the files on my gs2 so I guess it must be a lil different on this phone.
Edit: This is what I was trying to do. Actually I want that option to link more than 5 contacts too!

Thanks for that link. But I think if I'm stock rooted I'm odexed correct? And the 5 contacts thing is not regarding sending mms. It let's you link more than 5 contacts. Samsung has this stupid restriction which makes me have duplicate contacts for some people once I link all 5 and the person has more accounts with other apps that sync to my contacts.
Edit: Tried to flash your modded camera and it killed the auto focus beep but volume keys didn't work to take the pic nor did the on call feature work. Went back and completely uninstalled the camera before flashing again and that did the trick. I still have a shutter sound tho. How can I delete that?

The stock roms get released in odex and deodexed versions. If it worked for you, then I'm guessing you're deodexed.
With root explorer you will have to look in system/media folder. I can't recall exactly which sounds are related to the camera but they are named pretty well so it shouldn't be to difficult to figure out. Just rename them if you're not sure instead of deleting them. I think you also provided a link to something about the 5 contacts. I'll take a look at that too when I have time.

All in one convenient place. I think the only one that isn't is poweron.ogg. It is in the system/etc folder.
There's not many things to complain about and this is a very trivial thing to nit pick, but I hate a feature. I get a lot of mms from my girlfriend as she likes to take pictures, and whenever she sends me an mms with text included, my phone treats it like it's a slide show or a video. It even has a play and pause button on it and there's an indicator showing how much time is left, just like the video player. I can't zoom on the image or move it around at all and I have to save it to be able to zoom or move it. However, when she sends one without text, it's completely normal, meaning I can zoom and what not. Is there a way to fix this or bypass it?

I'm not sure how to edit posts on this app so, sorry for double posting but can some one tell me how to get the cm10 notifications on my stock note 2?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
I honestly don't know the specifics on MMS. But just because some os or apps flatten the text and image to a single screen doesn't necessarily make it the proper way. With the slide show view, I see it as multiple media bits sent in one envelope, so it shows me each bit.
I do recall having annoyances with trying to save, but using Handcent, for instance, that's never been an issue for me.

Do you mean replacing all system sounds, or just the configurable ones without root? If you mean the latter, it should be easy enough to dl them from the cm git, or dl an image and extract from there. Once you have them, just copy to your sdcard and go crazy.

In CM10, the sounds are in the OGG format, so they will have that file extension (they work fine in the stock Samsung Note 2 firmware). If you have downloaded the CM10 zip file to your phone and are able to browse through it, just sort by "File extension" and look through the names to find the sounds you want. I am not familiar with androzip, but if you prefer, you can sort the zip contents by "Path" to find CM10 ringtones in \system\media\audio\ringtones and CM10 notification sounds in \system\media\audio\notifications.
Extract the ringtones and notifications you want onto your Note 2 in the "\Ringtones" and "\Notifications" directories (these are in the stock firmware at the root of your phone, no need to create them yourself). More specifically, on my stock, non-rooted phone, the directories are "/storage/sdcard0/Ringtones" and "/storage/sdcard0/Notifications". Once there, they should be available immediately from where you normally set your phone's default sounds (don't quote me on this part ... it may require a reboot once the sounds are in the proper folders, but I don't think I had to).
