To include Screen Writing's screenshot sound, that noise has got to go.
Third party apps seem like clutter and bloat so I thought about deleting the system/media/audio/ui oggs themselves. I also thought editing those files by turning them into silent audio files but I wanted to run it by you first. Help!
Use xposed framework

If you are rooted, install the exposed framework. You can turn off camera sounds there.
The exposed framework does a great job of it, but my camera app has a setting for it built in.

I use the timer when I'm cooking and recently*, it doesn't play a sound when the timer ends. Is there a way to change it? Could I have accidentally deleted or .nomedia'd the folder where the sound file resides?
Possibly related, my calculator is missing.
*I think since I updated to EC05, not sure..

I've seen so many asking about sound on Shutter, Camera sound.
I found it a while back and didn't realize it was Hidden or as most are saying, not available ..
Go to Apps Section:
Look for App:
Smart Stay Ex Lite......If you don't have it, Get it on Play, free version because it says it's over $100
Even though it came on our phone.
Open App:
2nd settings, called Shutter Off, check it.......
Note: while in that App it should be or set to the Off at top of the Settings...
Enjoy All:highfive:
Clearly spam. Move along folks...
I think it's the shutter file under system/media/audio/ui. Try renaming that file. Works for me.

No need for an app, use the method posted above.
I don't normally post stuff here, but when I do, it's something I find very important or useful & worthy of passing along. I recently upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-T999) only to discover that it seems to not have default means of setting my custom MP3 files as certain ringtones-- specifically, notification sounds. All I could find in the "set as" tool was options for "alarm" and (phone) "ringtone". I did however find a laborious workaround that requires moving every damned MP3 file into the "notification" folder in the phone system, then going back to use the "set as" tool to create a clock alarm, THEN going back to the system sounds menu to open the notification sounds & (finally) find the custom MP3 file I originally moved to the (you guessed it) notifications folder. Talk about laborious & time wasting! I found this free little app, MP3 Ringtone Maker, that does all that automatically-- in other words, it does indeed have the direct option of selectiing any MP3 file within its explorer to directly "set as" the file to the system notification sound for the texting/messaging sound effect, without having to go through the previously mentioned workaround. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes to take the time to create custom sounds (as I do on my PC, using Audacity) then easily set them quickly as your phone's default sound effects. Here it is: http://bit.ly/MnLqLQ:):)
I use the myxer app. It allows you to trim any mp3 file to get a specific part of a song and when you're done, it allows you to either save it as a ringtone or a notification. It will save the file in the respective folder as well. Been using it since my evo 4g days and it hasn't failed me yet :thumbup:

I totally forgot about ring droid! I used that religiously back in the days lol. But I switched to myxer because I could use it to not only make my own ringtones, but I could download ringtones that were already made as well.

in hindsight (the best kind)
In hindsight, I probably should have titled my thread "A good ringtone Set-As'er"-- I realize there are great little custom ringtone makers out there-- I just happen to diddle a lot on my PC for audio stuff (since that's where the bulk of my MP3 collection is anyway) & use an audio editor (Audacity) to create custom stuff to send to my phone (instead of draining the battery on my phone to accomplish the same). I just happened to find the "MP3 Ringtone Maker" I mentioned above to seem to be the easiest app to browse my phone's storage for my selected MP3 stuff I transferred to it, and quickly "set as" them into (for example) the notification sound that the default Android "set as" tool doesn't seem to include.
where i can download this app ?
thankyou

All credit for these apps goes to @viper520. Shoutout to @zhuhang for maintaining the thread here on xda and creating some NICE impulse response samples,
I've been using ViPER4Android (V4A) for all my recent devices including the Droid DNA, S3, and the S4. So, naturally, I needed to get it on my Note 3 ASAP. There's two apps as part of this sound mod, but one is optional. The main app is called ViPER4Android FX. The current version is 2.3.1.1 and is compatible with stock rooted VZN Note 3. I use the optional app, ViPER4Android XHiFi, for superior bass and treble adjustment.
The newer versions of V4A allow for both system and user installations, but I've always installed it as a system app to ensure that it works 100% of the time (including watching movies with MX Player, YouTube, streaming with Google Play Music, etc.) So, my N3 installation instructions are as follows (note: your device MUST be rooted):
1) Download the app(s) from the original xda thread. Extract the 4.x versions of the apks from the .zip files.
2) Push both apks to system\app. Reboot so permissions get automatically fixed or manually change to rw-r-r-. (First screenie using Root Explorer).
3) Launch each app separately. Grant root access to each of them to install their drivers. They'll both prompt you to install drivers on first launch. Choose "Super Audio Quality" driver for FX. We have a quad core processor, so it can easily handle it. XHiFi is being phased out but still adds a richness I can't find in using FX alone. You must manually choose the bottom option. Reboot so it automatically fixes the permissions of the newly installed drivers.
4) After reboot, immediately go to settings\sound\music effects and choose ViPER4Android FX as the default sound processor (second screenie). NOTE: If you have a custom ROM, Music Effects may have been removed by your developer. Continue to the next step.
5) Open up /system/build.prop in text editor using any file explorer with root access. Change these lines (the bottom two apply to the VZN N3):
Code:
Ipa.decode=true to lpa.decode=false
tunnel.decode=true to tunnel.decode=false
lpa.use-stagefright=true to lpa.use-stagefright=false
NOTE: On a custom ROM, your build.prop may have been edited and these lines might not appear. They will definitely not appear if you're not on a Samsung device. You can either add these line manually for Samsung custom ROMs to ensure proper audio settings or simply continue without any build.prop edits.
6) Plug your headphones and start your favorite music app. Start up FX and enable it at the top and then check the driver status. If everything says you're processing, you're good to go. Enjoy the BEST sound on Android.
This is my tried and true installation. You can see from screenies 3 and 4 that it's definitely work on my N3. I'm not sure if installing it as a user app (just clicking the FX apk) will work or not as I didn't even try it. YMMV.
UPDATE: Tip for newer versions since this post was created:
Using the convolver is one of the most important things you can add to customize sound to your liking. You can access the convolver by going the UI Setting in the menu and selecting Moderate or Expert. The app will close and when you open it again, it will be under the equalizer. Once enabled, Download and extract IRS files to <storage>/ViPER4Android/Kernel/<paste files here>. If the directory doesn't exist, simply create it using a file manager. IRS's can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2216193
I've seen this mentioned before but I'm not super familiar with it. Does this make THAT much of a difference? Everything sounds amazing on my N3 after my Galaxy Nexus.
I'm going to head over to the thread to check it out but I'd like to hear anything else you guys have to say about it.
Thanks for the guide.

Yes, the difference is VERY drastic. You'll notice it as soon as you begin tinkering. I'd post my settings, but everyone has their own sound preferences. The great thing is, this mod accommodates all musical tastes. As you see from my screenies, I let FX do most of the work, as it should, and only use XHiFi's Audio Reconstruct feature.
You're welcome for the guide. Post back in here how you like it/any installation problems I can help with.
I use it for blue tooth through my cars radio. It takes the sound quality from crappy factory speakers to the point where I see no need to replace them

Does this work for the regular speakers, like speakerphone, ringtones/notifications? My issue is that everything seems too quiet. Will this help me?

Yes, it affects sound coming out of the regular speaker including speakerphone, but does not boost ringtones or notifications. I think this thread will help with that. Which reminds me...
I've been messing with V4A for so long, I forgot to include the instructions for Samsung devices in this post in my original guide. Fixing now.
Followed instructions. This mod is not working. Under processing, it says "No".

I know this sounds crazy, but that's usually not the important part. The important thing is if you can tell the difference in sound. If there's no modification, then there's a problem. Have you tried other music players? Have you tried the steps here?
When I go to the settings -> Sound -> Music Effects, it force closes. Otherwise, the mod sounds like it is working.
The only problem with the updated fx is there is no max gain now so it's not any louder

one of the best parts of viper is the .IRS samples
You have to go into "expert mode" for this.
then download the .irs files. fromt he original viper thread.
The best one I found was from a vintage 1980s technics Cassette deck.
It sounds awesome!
V4A FX has been updated to v2.3.1.3. Changelog:
FX version: v2.3.1.3
Notice: v2.3.1.3 partially-support Android 4.3.1 and Android 4.4 OS.
1.Bug fix.
2.Update translations.
3.Add a new bass mode.

The new bass mode is called Subwoofer and it's VERY deep bass. You can update by going to the OP of the V4A thread if you have it installed as a system app or just use the menu button and check for update if you have it installed as a data app.
Worked perfect on my rooted note 3. Thanks

thanks. wasn't working for me but one more reboot after editing build.prop did the trick.
I cannot get this to work for nothing. i do not notice any difference on headset or speaker. I followed OP instructions and nothing. My FX menu doesn't have the different bass options either. any ideas of how i can get this working.

go to settings then ui settings then expert then you will have all of the options. make sure you go to setting and check for new updates too. the new update is pretty sweet. it is a huge difference. you can make is very loud also by changing max gains

Did you do the build.prop edits in step 5? I'm pretty sure these help with the default Samsung music player. I use Neutron and Poweramp for local music. MX Player also works.

Forgive me if i dont understand right but you say the stock ringtones and notifications are there in system/media? If not what is there? Do you have a noise happening when notification or call comes in? If so just change them by either using music player and selcting use as ringtone, etc or just add your own files with sounds or music to the same place in system/media where the stock ones are. Make sure they are the right file type. Then you might see the option under settings tab. If not then save stock sounds to a folder on your sd card and the ones left that you just put there should now be your new sounds. Let me know if this worked please. Good luck
1st yes. 2nd not before I set a ringtone from music. 3rd that us the solution I was using. 4th will try that. 5th they are .ogg so nothing e.g music picks them up. in previous versions settings had all of them

How many ogg files are showing under system/media/? Just one? If so adding another may give you an option in settings. If not try nova launcher and go to settings again and options may show. If not look for app that converts files to other kinds of files and the oggs might be able to be turned to another format that makes it show up in music player. If not try flashing newer nightly update and see if it fixes itself in the next build. Let me know
