You must mount the system in read/write mode. Press the r/w button at the top before pasting.

thanx!!

What if I'm using CM7? Why can't I change my boot animation sound?

how about file limitations?
How about SIZE limitations and duration? does it have any ?
*YOU guys can use your own MP3 file and convert using FormatFactory , it's the best tool !

No boot sounds Cy4noobsMod

Is there a way to disable all boot sounds ? Putting my phone in silent mode doesn't help it still plays the transformers like sound which is way to loud when u have to do it in a public location imo.

Follow these steps:
1: Install root Explorer or ES file explorer etc.
2: Navigate to /system/media or /system/media/audio (cant remember which one)
3: Mount file system as R/W
4: Delete the bootsound.ogg or rename it to bootsound.ogg.old
5: Done !

yup, something like that. actually it was so easy as long we familiar with rootexplorer things. these for more accurately step:
> navigate to /system/media using rootexplorer (don't forget to mount system as R/W)
> delete "poweron.ogg" file or backup it (usually by renamed it to poweron.ogg.bak)
> done!
> or i'd like to suggest to customize it with your own sound file that already converted n renamed as poweron.ogg n replaced or backup the original sound file. recommended to set permission as same as the original (just copy by looking the original)

Hey, Thanks for this tip, Im going to do this after I flash Cyanogen 9

Or you just try the app called Silent Boot

[Q] Lost whistle notification

I just joined the realm of changing roms on my GS3. The thing I am missing now is that awesome whistle notification sound. How can I get this back? Thanks

Download this unzip it and put S_Whistle.ogg in /system/media/audio/notifications with a file explorer, reboot phone and you should have it back.

Download the original ROM from here, extract it, find your whistle, then copy it to the /sdcard/Notifications folder and it should be available for selection.
EDIT : got beaten on this one... but the end result is the same.

Thanks for the links. Got the file but it appears that you cannot write it to the system folder section you specified. I was able to add it to the internal sdcard in the media/audio/notifications
Thanks again

The system folder is write protected, you should be able to change it in your file explorer. Another root is to make the three folders Ringtones, Alarms, Notifications on your sdcard and put the sounds in there and reboot and they should show up.

[HOW TO] [ROOT]: Install Custom S-Pen Pointers and Sounds

Hello everyone. This is my second attempt at making a useful thread for the community so if it isn't formatted correctly or isn't right in anyway please PM me and I will fix it., it might be helpful to me to leave instructions on how to fix it as well. If something like this already exists, I am sorry please notify me of that and I will take this down.
This is a thread to instruct you on how to make custom s-pen sounds and install them as well as how to install custom s-pen pointers on any TW based rom including stock ( this is just install, I don't know how to make custom pointers yet). There are two requirements YOU MUST BE ROOTED AND RUNNING STOCK OR TW BASED ROM. This is my method, I am not saying that there aren't better ways just that this is how I do it and I know it works. I am not responsible for things going wrong and you being left with a device that doesn't work. You do this because you choose to and understand the risk involved. Also, please make back ups of all the files you want to change so that you have all the original files.
For Sounds: (You can use any sound you have or even the voice record app to make the sound you'd like)
1. Make sure you're rooted
2. Have some sort of root permission file explorer installed (I use Rom Toolbox)
3. Find or record the sounds you want to use as your s-pen attach and detech sounds If they aren't in the .ogg format then convert it to .ogg (I use wavepad for this step)
4. Decide if you want the sound to be sound 1,2 or 3
5. Once you have your sound the way want it rename the file for attach to Pen_att_noti1 (the number can also be a 2 or 3 depending on where you want the sound) and the sound for detach to Pen_det_noti1 (again the number can be different)
6. Place the files on your phone where you can locate them with the file explorer you have installed.
7. Locate the file(s) you want to use and using your explorer navigate to the directory system\ media\ audio\ ui and paste the sounds there. (You might be asked to overwrite whats there. If you want to save the original sounds simply find the file with the same name before you paste and rename to (thefilenamehere.ogg.bak)
8. Restart your phone
9. Once rebooted navigate to your spen sound selector and choose the sound want.
Thanks to my friend TheGrammerFreak for this nexxt bit
For Pointers:
(I don't know how to make pointers. This is assuming you have a file that you know can be used as the pointer. i am trying to learn and when/if I do I will add that to this thread)
1. Make sure you're rooted
2. Make sure you have some root permission file explorer installed.
3. Make sure you have a program that can open .apk files on you PC (I use 7-Zip)
4. Using the explorer you have navigate to the directory system\ framework and copy the file framework-res.apk to a place that you can access via the pc (I used my extsdcard)
5. Attach your phone to the computer
6. Find the framework-res.apk and move it onto your computer
7. Take the file you want to use and reaname it to tw_pointer_spot_hovering_spen
8. Open (not to be confused with unzip. Right click the apk and select "open with") the framework-res.apk with a program that will open it
9. Once open navigate to res\ drawable-xhdpi and find the file named tw_pointer_spot_hovering_spen delete that file and take the file you made/have of the same name and paste it directly into that directory. exit the program after doing so.
10 Take the framework-res.apk file that you edited and place onto your phone where you can locate it.
11. Detach your device from the computer
12. Using your explorer on your phone navigate to the edited framework-res.apk[ and select to copy it.
13. Navigate with your explorer to the directory system\ framework and paste the file there. WARNING: You might get several errors and force closes, don't worry this is normal.
14. Either restart your phone or pull your battery and boot up and you will now see your new pointer. Enjoy!
NOTE: If you want a different pointer for your files that air view capable or if you want your new pointer to be used as your air view pointer follow the same instructions except that the file you are wanting to use and the one you replace are both named tw_pointer_spot_hovering_spen_more and these files can be the same as your normal pointer if you choose.

[GUIDE] How to install from flashable zip manually

Hi everyone
This is my first thread, so I decide to make it useful to everyone
Let's GO !
What You Want :
ES File Explorer File Manager (OR any file explorer supports zip extracting)
Rooted Phone
Nandroid Backup (You don't know how important it is)
1- enable root explorer and set permission to r/w (read & write)
2- extract the flashable zip to your memory
3- go to the existing folder
4- copy everything except META-INF folder to the root of your phone
5- "Must" show replace confirmation select confirm
6- After the copy operation is finished, reboot your device
7- Done, Congratulations
PLEAS NOTE THAT I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE ABOUT YOUR DEVICE IF YOU BREAK IT RESTORE THE NANDROID BACKUP

note if its a new file you need to set permissions of the file
most files in app are rw-w-w however some may vary depending on what file it is
at the end of the day if you have a flashable zip its much better to flash certain things than push to system so if the flashable zip has already been made for you than you might as well use it

One doubt please

yes just push to system and set permissions - normally rw-r-r
although I dont know why you would want to do this as its always better to flash the file and since you have a flashable zip why not just flash it

Just a confuse

with root browser you can set permissions of any file - please search how
it depends what framework files you are replacing - you cant just replace with any old file from a different rom - it wont work
if its been designed for your rom or you are modding your own files then thats fine
and a flashable zip takes two secs - you dont need a pc - and iv posted a template loads of times
here is it again - just add any files you want to flash to framework in the framework folder
if you want files to go to the app folder just create a folder in system in the zip called app and put files there
same for any other folder in system
