[Q] How to change in call touch tone sounds? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Don't flame me for not searching. I have looked and found nothing. Having said that, it's probably right under my nose.
I need to change the sound (tone) the phone makes when in a call and using the dial pad. I'm not talking about the water droplet sound when dialing a number to make a call, but rather the loud, abrasive sound it makes when pushing numbers while in a call.
If there is a flashable zip I can use to replace the sounds, or even if someone can point me to the folder the file is in so that I can replace it would be fine. I can't take it anymore. HELP!
Thanks, The Damn Batman.

I'm not sure I know which sound you're talking about as I don't use touch sound (which btw, turning it off would fix your problem). But chacnes are that it's in /system/media/audio. It would be a .ogg file.

Thanks for replying, but twas no help. The sound is the sound the number pad makes when your in a call and pressing numbers (think of when your in a menu directory trying to reach someone/something).
I searched all through the media folder and found nothing. The touch sound only takes away the sound it makes when you dial a number to call, which doesn't bother me.

Not sure if this fixes it, but in the Phone app, you can go to menu -> Call settings -> Ringtones and keypad tones, and uncheck Keytones.

No dice, just removes the droplet sound. :crying:

Maybe you can set up a Tasker profile which switches the phone to vibrate/silent during a call, then reverts when the call ends.

Audio Boost ( Audiopara4 ) Makes TP2/ATT Tilt 2 sound louder

I found a thread with the Audiopara4_loudest.zip file and installed it. It makes the Touch Pro 2 sound noticeably louder and I love it but it completely takes away the ability to hear who is talking to you and for the person who is calling you to hear you during a phone call.....pure silence. Is there a way that this can be fixed so I can keep using this? The sound without this cab is low and makes it hard to hear the ring tones and alerts in active environments.
Thanks

Has anyone else tried this? I'd like to boost volume but the side effects make this a difinite no-go.
Do a search for AudioPara3_ATTMax This did wonders for me I have no issues with bluetooth, no issues with the ear piece, nor the ability not to hear the phone ringing. U can change the name to anything you want, just as long as you make sure to have the same name in the reg entry, reset the phone and you'll be happy. I know I am

Dial Button Tone

Can anyone tell me how to switch of the DTMF tone on dialling?
THanks
PS - I'm a newbie when it comes to android - got bored with WM.
DO you mean the keyboard tones? DTMF tones are something else entirely!
when in phone press menu and look in settings for keybaord tones.
but be warned, when you turn these off, DTMF tones will also be disabled and your voicemail will stop working, because you wont be able to select menu items when you call automated lines like voicemail.
and yes i know i said they were different things entirely, and they are, it just for some stupid reason, android has linked them together!

Thanks for that. I've turned them off and can still access the menus within the vodafone voicemail service. Just found them annoying especially when in work!

Disable sounds during call?

While on a call, particularly speaker, is there no way to disable the keypress sound only during a call without doing it via the sound toggle or manually doing it in the settings? Doesn't seem to make any sense that certain sounds wouldn't automatically turn off so the caller wouldn't hear them. My previous HTC Hero did this automatically.

I have found this to be annoying as well. I have noticed that I have have my phone set on Vibrate (no sounds normally produced) and if I am on a call and an email or SMS comes in I get a notification sound. For some reason the sounds that are silenced when I am not on a call are produced when I am in a call.
I wish I knew of a solution to this issue.

This might work for you:
Phone>Call Settings>Call alert>Uncheck "Alerts on call"
Now help me fix my problem and we're even.

[Q] DTMF on dialer?

Hey guys, I just purchased my S3 on Friday (decided that I didn't need the S4 and the S3 was only $50) and I've already come across a few things that are annoying, even though I already love the phone.
My main issue at the present, though, is that I'm used to (and prefer) hearing the DTMF tones when I'm dialing a number in the phone app, but I can't find any way to enable that with this phone. Is there a way to change the keypad tone without rooting the device, or is it going to require root to do so?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Go like ur making a phone call when u see the dialer then press the menu u will see ringtone and keypad tones go in there and click to turn it on

To clarify, you can have a bubbly kind of noise when you hit the dialpad, but not DTMF tones. That setting is :
dialer>menu>Call Settings>Ringtones and keypad tones>Keytones
Kind of bugged me at first too, but I got over it
I would guess there must be some third party dialer that gives you DTMF back, but I got used to it pretty quick, especially since i hardly ever make a call from the dial pad any more.

I even got the problem that my S4 does not send the dtmf signal. I cannot call a hotline or service number or anything. Most of the hotlines ask for a number to go on...e.g. 1 for English, 2 for German etc.
That's not possible with the S4 due to the bubble sound. I assume you got the same problem with your S3, didn't you?

My s3 has dtmf tones, it's under phone>menu>call settings>then scroll down, 3rd option from the bottom. I still have the bubbly sound when dialing but the dtmf tones are still there.

Correct!! The bubbly sound is when you first dial. Once connected the dial pad works just fine and the dtmf tones are all there. Any service line that you call that requires dtmf tone work perfectly.

Might turn out that it is just me =)
In the menu, there is not such an entry. There is just Call settings>Ringtones and keypad tones>Keypad tones is checked. It says "Play tones when keypad is pressed. There is no other entry indicating something related to dtmf.
I cannot imagine that it does not work, since it is a very essential function. Am I wrong?

Don't go into ringtones & keypads, just scroll down
Tsss...what a f...
I just called a hotline, there was no dtmf signal to navigate through the menu. Afterwards, I turned the background noise reduction of and tried it again. It was working properly and I could navigate through the menu. I turned the background noise reduction on again and it is still working, so there was just a conflict between the signal and the noise reduction....
Damn system LOL I am working on that since Saturday...
Problem solved!

Question Getting rid of the annoying 'ding' sound when touching the assistant voice typing icon in Gboard

The thread title says it all. With normal voice typing on Gboard, it doesn't make that annoying ding sound when you Hit the voice typing icon. But with assistant voice typing enabled, the incredibly annoying ding is there, and I can't figure out how to remove it. I don't want to turn down the media volume because then the whole device is muted.
I've heard that tasker can do this, but I don't know if it's true. Does anyone know of a surefire way or even ADB command to this fukking thing?
It's the same annoying ding sound when you say hey Google, so likely turning this off will turn off that annoying sound as well.
I'd also like to have that ding removed, definitely is a bit annoying

Has anyone figured out how to do this? Evidently I sure fire way to do it is to completely remove any sort of accessibility service you have installed. But that is not a realistic option. Using Nova launcher, for example is a must, and must be enabled through accessibility to get full functionality.

This is driving me so incredibly insane, words don't do it justice - as that ding sound is so loud, and I just don't want to broadcast everyone around me that I'm using it....
Also, using do not disturb mode just to make it go away, is simply not realistic.
I think if you rename one of the .ogg sounds in the UI media folder it should eliminate the sound.
You'd need root to touch that folder though. I'll see if I can find the exact sound file.
Edit: doesn't look like it's in the system UI sounds. Very odd
