I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could provide assistance on how I can disable the start up and shut down tones.
You could try using this app and see if it works.
If you're rooted you can go to "system/media/audio/ui" and rename "PowerOn.ogg" to "PowerOn.ogg.bak".

I am rooted but I can't seem to figure out how to get to "system." I downloaded es filemanager and don't see it, how do I get into that folder to make the changes? Also, I want to shut off the tone on shutdown too.

I'm assuming it's the att logo? You'll have better customization, like changing boot screen too, if you load cleanrom. I just made the switch
Im guessing changing or editing the startup file will do it. Bootanimation. Zip is what custom roms use
Anyhow I notice mine is silent when my phone is on silent. So if you need temporary silence (night time) then put your phone on vibrate.

So I figured out how to get into the system files. Do I now need to hook up the phone to my computer or can I go in through the phone via es file manager and make the change? I read somewhere that the phone needs to be "mounted" but I don't know what that means so I'm hesitant to attempt making changes without being sure of what I'm doing. Can you suggest a link with good instruction or is it something you can explain?
It works great for my phone. Thanks

Wondering if anyone else is having FCs on com.android.phone
Get it all the time when I'm on a active call > get a 2nd call and answer > select option to put original caller on hold. I'm able to finish up on the 2nd call but cannot get back to the 1st call.
I'm rooted on latest CWM. No custom ROM.
Using V6 SuperCharger and dsexton tweaks.
I've cleared both caches and fixed permissions - no luck
I tested and got the same issue......rooted with CWM. Has anyone else tried this.
And those calls does not show up in call logs as well.

I read somewhere where someone was getting similar error....on google forum it said that it has something to relate to SIM Toolkit.....Do you still have that in your phone as i un-installed it.
i also have this issue... very annoying and inconvenient

I have absolutely no experience with that however, I did a search on Google and this thread popped up. All I searched for was "how to edit build.prop":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1236732
Anyone feel free to verify/correct me as I have never edited my build.prop before and I don't intend to. This is for anyone who may be looking for an answer. I won't say it is the answer as I've never done this before but hopefully this helps someone get on the proper train of thought.
if you're rooted try removing or renaming the phone.apk in /system/app. Make a copy of the ROM .zip to flag the original first in case something doesn't work ans definitely a backup in cwm. This should disable the activation nag and data phone capabilities. Not a good idea if you want to use it as a phone.

If you can't use your phone for text,data,and talking, you can disable it as it essentially disables the ROM's use of the cell's radio (wifi should still work).
Couple ways to do it:
1. remove the phone.apk from the zip and transfer new zip to sdcard and wipe system in recovery and re-flash rom.
2. Using root explorer or some kind of app that can write to /system, delete or rename the Phone.apk found in /system/app and reboot. If you get force close messages, just battery pull and boot the phone up again.
And, no there's no editing of the file itself just making the android system not able to find it. Not officially supported by devs to disable the radio but if you're having struggles to skip activation it is definitely worth a shot.

You're talking about the screen that comes up when you first turn the phone on after you first buy the phone?
There's a way to do it without changing the build.prop, I'll look for it. I actually did it when j first got my phone.
Some people have said if you tap the top left, top right, bottom right, and bottom left corners in that order it bypasses it.
It works for some, the way I did it involved dialing some **number and changing somethings to 0000000

Here I found a link to where it says how to tap the corners
http://www.androidcentral.com/bypass-activation-screen-your-android-device
And I found the way I was talking about when you call **778 and change the settings
1. Select emergency call and dial ##778.
2. Select edit and enter service password 000000.
3. Select NAM Settings.
4. Change Mobile Directory number to 0000000000 (Ten digits).
5. Change MIN1 to 0000000 (Seven digits).
6. Change Mobile Country Code to 000 (Three digits).
7. As you back out "Commit the Change".
8. The phone will auto reboot in 10 seconds.
#2 works permanently as I remember and it's pretty easy to do.
Hi,
I'm wondering if there is some easy way to take screenshots.
Other Samsung devices have a shortcut for this: http://opensourcehacker.com/2011/02...g-galaxy-s-and-other-samsung-android-devices/
The Glide seems not to have.
So is there any other way? E.g. by defining some app in "Settings > Applications > Quick launch" ?
Or is "Screenshot" an app, removed in OsiMood-Rom?
I use the 'Home + Power key' combo to take screenshots. No special apps installed. Screenshots are saved in the 'ScreenCapture' folder.
mhh ok... my glide seems to recognize this home+power shortcut but it throws me an error:
The application com.sec.android.app.screencapture has stopped unexpectedly
:-/
Sorry for your trouble. I've soft-bricked my phone several times tooling with apps I shouldn't have and such, and I am rooted on the Craniam OC Kernel and the stock rooted ROM, but I've never had issues with screen capture working. I don't know how extensive your mods are, but is it possible some app manager is freezing some component of the system that screen capture needs? Shot in the dark but I hope you get answers.

if you have OsiMood or INC3PTION, you wont be able to use the HOME + POWER for screenshots for it is considered to be a bloatware so removed....you can search the Glide forums for the screenshot.apk found in stock ROM.
Errrr....just take the attached file and put it in /system/app
^^^^^
Thanks and any precautions like say giving permissions while placing in that folder??? Thanks again...
UPDATE:-
Done and is working perfectly... Thanks... Just use the "mount RW" option when copying that attached file to /system/app folder... No need to change the permissions.... Thanks a lot again...

Oh yeah sorry, forgot to metion that you need system to be writable (RW). About permissions, just give it full (rwxrwxrwx), Android will change and give it the right permissions after a reboot....

you should try the modded apk then cause not having any of those issues with that apk.
but u have to force install that apk file by coping it to system and changing permissions
that is to hard for some people
Es file explorer, super manager are easy to use not hard at all
if you want to post the file link to the other apk and detailed instructions i will add it to op
is the link in the OP the modded apk?
no

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.
