Change locking sounds - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys is there a way for me to change the locking sounds on the g3? I am rooted. I know u can change the lock sounds by using other lock screen apps like widget locker. Just wondering if there is a way to change the sounds using the stock lockscreen.

the sounds are located in /system/media/ui
make sure your new lockscreen sound has the same Name and extention(.ogg

I can simply use ES File Explorer?

with root mode, yes

Tried this today and now my unlock sound isn't working. Is it because the file I want to replace it with is an mp3? I renamed it to exactly what was in the system files previously...
*edit* I converted the files I wanted to the .Ogg format and replaced the files. Locking sounds aren't working now...
*edit* had to change the permission of the files. It works now!

I have found that in order to set notification ringtones other than the stock ones it has to be done from within the settings of the stock messaging app. :silly:
That is where I'm doing it. Works for a couple of rings then they start cutting off.

Try using Zedge app and apply it through settings... Just put the ringtone in the zedge folder, go to zedge settings, rescan folder and then apply the ringtone...

The folder where the default wallpapers are. I been trying to change my lockscreen to something I've downloaded but it seems like selecting it from the regular gallery doesn't work.

Are you running a custom ROM? From gallery you should be able to set current picture as background. But on custom ROMs you can have a completely different picture for your lock screen than what a set as your home screen.

Actually you can set them separately on stock based roms as well.
And putting your picture in another location probably won't fix the problem. Sounds like you're on a JB rom. Some of those had some issues with this. You may be able to set wallpaper by going through the settings menu. Or try pressing menu while on homescreen and select set wallpaper.

Stock based ROM is settings>display> choose which you want to change.

Thanks I guess it's just an issue with the JB ROM.

How to install Holo Launcher HD to system?

I want use the "add widgets" feature from the drawer but it says it needs to be installed to system. Any suggestions or help?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Just like any other app you want to turn into a system app. There are apps which can move it to the system app folder for you "/system/app mover" is one which is on google play. Or you can just move the APK with a root file explorer and then change the permissions to match the other APKs already in that folder then reboot. Any method to turn an app into a system app will require root in case you didn't know that.

Use Titanium Backup Pro and convert it to a system app that way. Requires root, but cmon if your not rooted why are you even here lol
I am rooted, just stock rom lol. The APK thing was the thing I forgot about thanks guys

Just search some of the font sites like http://www.dafont.com, http://www.fontsquirrel.com, https://www.google.com/fonts/ for something you like, then download the ttf or otf files (might be in a zipped download, so remember to extract them). Put these either in /sdcard/fonts/ or /sdcard/ZooperWidget/Fonts/. Now if you open Zooper and add a (Rich) Text Module, your fonts should show up as a selection under the Text Font Family option.
That's easy! Thanks!

Also, if I create a widget with a custom icon and then package it to share, will the font transfer with the package?

Yes, fonts are included in the theme templates if you check the "Store external resources" option on export.
