For those who want to delete annoying ringtone or alarm sounds from stock one, here is a simple solution to change it
You need : Root Explorer / Root Browser
1. Go to root.
2. Open system/media/audio
3. (See, there are 4 folders : alarm, notification, ringtone, and ui) Choose folder that you want.
4. If you don't like the sound from that folder, just delete it. If you want to give your own sound, just copy it to the folder that you chose. But i recommend your sound file type is ogg vorbis. You can download Audacity from (http://audacity.sourceforge.net) to helps you convert the sound file
5. (Important) If you choose ui folder and want to change the system sound, don't forget to change your new sound's name like the old one!
5. Done!
After that, if you have problem about ringtone loop, see my thread below

Can it be done without root?
I have a new GT i9100G which is not rooted and as of this time I do not wish to void the warranty. So, my question is, can this be done without rooting my device? If not, will using Odin to root the device (flashing a kernel) set the counter to 1, and if so, how do I reset it without a jig?
PS. I hope I am not posting this in the wrong place and apologize if I am.
wow thanks for this simple guide, been lookin for this

no,it needs root.
Still visible in the menu...
Thanks a lot for the guide bro!
I got another question. I removed all those annoying sounds I never used and never will, the way you showed, but when I open the alarm menu or ringtone menu, they are still visible.
How do I remove them from there too? I wiped cache and Dalvik cache, but they are still there although there are only 3 alarm sounds left, the list of sounds in the alarm menu is still the same...
A really simple thing to do.
I wonder why people fail at times..
Anyways, Good Guide. Will help lots of people.
thankx for it was got bore with that old sound

Never mind... Problem solved... In the beginning, even after deleting the sounds I didn't want, they were still visible in the menus. If I selected them they would be mute of course... Today, somehow they disappeared from the menus as welI don't know if out was due to my constant rom modding or what. It beats me...

Once you are done with removing/adding the ring tone, restart your phone. It will update the new list.

the way to update the ringtone list is just restart your phone, or you could edit the ROM zip file first, before you flash it in your phone.

Thanks for answering my post. Using SU-BB installer, I was able to get root without changing the counter (I hope) so now I can use your method to get rid of the sounds I never use and do not like.
I've added sounds to the notification folder earlier but the notification volume is much lower than what the original volume of those tones. Any way to fix it ?

Use Audacity: It's free, and open source!
If your GT-S5830 has only one speaker (mono), you can, if your audio is stereo, create a mono track which should help somewhat. Audacity>new>open your file> tracks> stereo to mono. You can also use audacity to boost the db of the of the audio signal (take care not to cause clipping). Audacity>effect>amplify.
Hope this helps.

persistent irritating original ringtone!
My friend, please help me out. I have a problem with my rooted Huawei mediapad s7-931u device. i dont know why whenever i use/ install hisuit driver, the ringtone of the device gets back to its original (irritating!) one. off course, the name of the ringtone in my device is the one I have chosen, but that does not ring and the original one is played. I have tried to not use hisuit but still when i install a new app or use Superuser app, the ringtone changes to its original one!!!
you know what's funny! i looked all four audio folders to find that ... sound but it wasnt in any of them to be DELETED or what.
Please help me out! it's really going on my nerves now!
by the way, i forgot to make a ROM back up! oops. actually i tried but i couldnt. please tell me what to do.
Thanks a million.
I am tired of the bloop Everytime I click on the screen. I want to change it and am not positive the exact method.
I know I need to replace the system file with another file of the same name and file type, but I'm not sure what the hell the name of the file is.

Make sure the sound file you are going to use is in OGG format or it wont work, here is a link that will show you how to this without downloading any sound changing software. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1873289&highlight=ogg

After this I wanted to confirm for myself( just a curiosity thing ) and found something very intresting. I removed each file 1 at a time and rebooted, only to find out that the sound was still there. Could my RootExplorer be going wacky ? Or could those files have nothing to do with the lock sound ?

Don't delete them. Just rename to Effect_Tick.ogg.off. it works for me for getting rid of the camera sounds. But I know for sure that effect tick is the touch sounds. I've made a couple themes for myself.

Make sure that your file explorer is setting the /system folder as writable. Even if you have access to root folder of your phone, the /system folder is usually read only. Goes without saying you need root access to your device.
OK I think OP means TAP on the screen. Click on to me meant turning the screen on and off. There are two ways, untick the box or rename the file.

This post intrigued me so I tried it myself... I wanted to change the obnoxious "boop" to the tick from an aosp JB ROM and I found that All 3 of these files must be changed or else you'll still get that dang "boop":
/system/media/audio/ui/Effect_Tick.ogg (Actually, I really don't think this is necessary because I accidentally deleted this file entirely without replacement and have still achieved the same results, but if it makes you feel comfortable...)
PLUS
/system/media/audio/ui/S_HW_Touch.ogg (This is the sound for the "back" and "menu" keys on the bottom of the phone)
AND ALSO
/system/media/audio/ui/TW_Touch.ogg (This is the MAIN file that changes the sound on every touch made on the touchscreen)
Hope this helps!
And oh yeah... DEFINITELY make sure you're using a root-capable file explorer with "/System/" mounted as RW and make sure permissions are set to "rw-r-r" when you're done. And reboot for new sounds to take effect.

I'm sure the keyboard has one too. So there may be a ton of files lol. I always disable keytones and what not as soon as I touch an electronic device. They drive me nuts. It'd be a fun prank to replace the bloop with the camera click tho

I was tinkering around in the sounds and found out that this works really easy.
Unfortunately the effects are not immediately noticible, it requires a reboot to have the system sounds replaced.
Also another big thing is that if you want to keep your phones original sounds just rename the file TW_Touch.ogg.off or .Bak all you need to do is add something to the end that makes the file null by the phone and it can always be changed back to reinstate the stock sound

This helped me SO much! Ty all! I was stuck on this for like 2 days lol.
Has anyone tried switching out the sound effects played when detaching the S-pen? I know it's possible via a root file manager, but how would I go about preparing the files, format, bitrate, etc? I would really like it to play a cinematic-style sword unsheathing sound when I remove the stylus.
You will need to be rooted to do this. You can use root Explorer (paid) or solid Explorer (free)
The files are located in:
/system/media/audio/ui/
Pen_att_noti1.ogg
Pen_det_noti1.ogg
Those are the two sound files that control the remove and insert S Pen sounds.
Rob the plumber created these to make it sound like a light saber, if you want to try them out.

That I'm not sure about. I'm sure there is a whole bunch of software out there. . Probably even apps... To convert. As far as length requirements, I'm also not sure. But I'd just stick close to the duration of the rest of the ui sounds and you should be fine. I think the worst that could happen is, the sound won't trigger. ..pretty sure

The lightsaber SFX are just renamed .mp3s? What bitrate/codec, or does that even matter?
Lightsabers = win, perfect to go along with my Jedi Master rom. I was to say flac will actually convert to ogg, nero, winamp, etc.

Here's the files to replace the second pen removal and return sound effects with a sword unsheathing one. They shouldn't replace the lightsaber sounds, as those replaced the first sound set. These have been confirmed to work with Jedi X4, just unzip and paste them over the existing files in /system/media/audio/ui/ using Root Explorer.
If I come up with any more, I'll post them in this thread.

If you use these files, you may have to manually adjust the permissions of the new files in the folder to be identical to the rest of the files. For me, it wouldn't work otherwise.

You beat me to it because I was going to say the same thing. I really like the sword sounds but like you said even on the lowest volume they're ridiculously loud. I'm pretty sure you can just rename them back to .mp3 and then use a conversion program on a pc to adjust the levels. I'll give it a shot and see if it helps and repost them if it does

I'm not sure how to but u can download the zedge app for free. Then search for the samurai sword notification. Download it. Use file explorer go to zedge folder and move the mp3 to system/media/audio/ui. Then rename the Pen_det_noti1.ogg to Pen_det_noti1.bak and rename samuraisword.mp3 to Pen_det_noti1.ogg. This is how I did it. It is rather loud but its awesome. I just turned down system volume a little and its fine.
Hey guys,
I've been trying to have the qwerty keyboard click but not the waterdrop on the phone keypad.
I'm rooted and ive replaced the three .ogg files in system/media/audio/ui and even after rebooting and the sound still happens. Ive removed them, renamed them, and replaced them and I cant stop the drip sound.
Now im starting to think the sound is stored somewhere else. So does anyone know where im going wrong.
Many thanks,
Luke.

To disable the sound.... go to Settings. . Sound. .system/disable Key tones
You can also do this from menu of dial pad... on dial pad screen press menu. .Settings. .
To change it. ..well it should be somewhere inside the system folder in the same path labeled key tones
scribbled from my note 2 (N7100)
But then the qwerty keyboard doesnt click dude. Thanks anyways

Yep, I know the answer.
I've been trying to do this myself, the answer is that the sound is in the SecContacts.apk. So you need to grab that from your phone and navigate to res > raw and the file is touch.ogg. Just replace that with another sound of the same name. From there on I'm not 100% sure of the process since I haven't done it myself but you may have to decompile/recompile the apk to do it properly (but again I'm not sure). With the new sound in the apk you just need to flash it back to your phone.
I am new to Android so this kind of tweaking is beyond my skill level ATM, but the bloop sound is so damn annoying I think I'm going to get rid of it soon!

I get you man! It almost drove crazy! and yes the sounds in question are located in /system/media/audio/ui/
I change 2 files : S_HW_Touch.ogg and TW_Touch.ogg with 2 files I picked from AOSP 4.2, set the permissions correctly and reboot ... voila , no more water-drops .
For the dialer you need to rename/remove/or replace Dialer_new.ogg in the same directory.

Any one?
I would love to know how to do it as well. The key tones on the dialer are very important to have certain sound, for some visually impaired people using this phone it really helps to listen to the key sound when pressing numbers to confirm right number has been pressed. Anybody at Samsung reads this forum? Can you please put back regular telephone dial sounds? What was wrong with the sound? This device is a telephone, right? If anybody can help me I would donate him. Thanx.

Since changing the other sounds worked for me, I assumed it would be the same for the dialer. I was wrong, I apologize.
No one? Come guys (and girls?)...I changed all 3 .ogg files as well, but unfortunately the Dialer sound is still the terrible water sound...although I can't find a SINGLE file on my phone anymore which IS that sound...so where does the phone find that sound/file????? Aaaaaaaaaaaarghhhhh!!!
This is spooky...or is it an encrypted file just to tease us?
Thanks,
ChaosDM
Can someone post the alternative files please? ?
thanks to Androssama for the files.
the files are here for the needy.
btw, the dialer sound is not annoying as it is a bit different now that the other sounds are changed to better ones.
you have to change the mount from R/O to R/W in the root explorer. & make a backup of the old files just in case. then copy paste the new files overwriting the old ones. change back the permission from R/W to R/O, reboot & enjoy.

I tried all the stupid tricks I know (replacing it with another file and zipping back the whole thing, renaming it to apk since apk files are just fancy zips => didn't work. Tried embedding it in a flashable vrtheme zip file since those decompile, mod and recompile the apk => didn't work.) I don't know how to properly decompile an apk and since everyone is using a different ROM it'll be difficult to post requests.
I've been able to change the touch sounds from water drop to click which was pretty straight forward however the keypad dialler 'spelling"
was located in a different place than otherwise noted on the forum.
The dialler touch sounds were located in a different place than the touch wiz sounds. and it was one file not broken down into 1 2 3 ect.
This is for 4.1.2 i9100.
So I put it into the to hard to do basket and just left it. Sure you can use a app dialler but I like stock.
Wouldn't you think that someone as big as Samsung would allow you to make a simple sound change just by going to settings - sound.
Good luck.

I've been looking all over for this sound file (it's not Dialer_New.ogg in System/Media/Audio/UI)
I would be happy to replace the dialer sound with just a single touch tone sound I already have but can't locate the file.
(EDIT) - nevermind - now I understand the post above indicates that the file is located inside SecContacts.apk
SecContacts.apk\res\raw\touch.ogg
Does anyone know where to find the above file? I searched in Root Explorer from the top level (Root) but didn't find it.
Thanks
