You could just download the Stock rom unzip it and go to system/media/audio and get them.

Thats true. But now here is the question, I have tried replacing the audio folder with the one that comes with CM6.1.2 and I have like doubles of each ringtone but they all make the same 1 sound.
Any fix for this?
Is it possible you have them on your storage card too? I'm not real sure how CM structures his audio stuff so I can't really answer that. You could unzip his rom replace the files zip it back up and flash it and see if it does the same thing.
So this may be a nub question but if lets say i create a zip with the folder "system/media/audio/xx" and flash it, it will flash? dont I have to sign it?
For example, I replaced the /system/media/audio/x content with the default ones from the stock rom, but when I go to Settings > Sound > Phone ringtone, i got like tons of other ringtones in the list and they all play the same sound when previewing.
If that helps break it down on what I'm trying to fix lol. I have a nandroid but I have made so many adjustments today, I would loose a lot to roll back.
All you need to do is download a stock rom, take out the Audio folder of that rom and then place that Audio rom onto the root of your SD card. Once the Audio folder is placed on the SD card go into sound settings, ring tones etc.. and you will see that all the files from that Audio folder are there and there will be doubles of some sounds. Once you confirm that the stock sounds are there, go back and delete the Audio folder you put on the root of the SD card and then all the double files will go away and you still have the stock ring tones along with CM tones.

Thanks for you response. Yeah thats what I was doing earlier. But the list kept showing doubles after reboot. Then I gave up for a good 15...20 minutes and everything was back to normal, Had all the regular ringtones back on there, Guess it was hung or something, no idea lol.
Thanks though;-)
When I unzip the ROM it only contains image files. Am I using the wrong ROM?
Short-story time!
Had a Droid 3. Loved that annoying DROIIIDDD notification ogg. Downloaded RAZR system dump. Transferred all .ogg files to Nexus via Root Explorer. No audio came out but files are showing up in settings. Da fuq ?
is there a reason why you didnt just put them in the notifacation folder on the internal storage ? would not that have been easier ?.
if you really want it just convert the .ogg to .mp3 or somethng then put it in the notification folder
...I was wondering about that folder.....
Thanks
Sorry to post this, it seems like it should be such an easy thing.
I'm on a rooted GB.EL29 stock and wanted to silence the camera.
I've done both of the methods below, but I still get a double 'ding' sound when I set the phone to silence and take a pic.
Please help, or at least let me know im not alone.
Methods tried:
1. Rename sound effects in /system/media/audio/ui
Files to rename:
Cam_Start
Cam_Stop
camera_click
camera_click_short
Shutter_01
2. Create local.prop in /data/
File contains ro.camera.sound.forced=0

Coincidentally, I also have tried the #2 option after researching earlier today how to silence the camera shutter. It did not silence it.
In fact, the first time I deleted the folder and files after it didn't work, I must have deleted the wrong file because I got all kinds of pop ups, force closes, and a boot loop that would end in a power down.
I had to Flash a Nandroid Backup. Luckily I had 2 Nandroid backups, because one of them was bad due to checksums not matching.
I have found answers regarding silencing the shutter, including
ROM's that have this baked in, and there is a camera app, camera fx I believe.
I have the ICS Camera installed from Overstew and ssconceptz. I may ask them regarding this.
Anyway, you're not alone, and ALWAYS have a Nandroid Backup, just in case
delete the media files, then edit the apk and remove the additional hidden media files compiled into the apk.

I downloaded the Camera ICS app.
I silenced the camera, but the shutter still click clacks.
remove the camera apk file from any custom Rom in the development section and replace your existing one.
Found a Very Easy Solution!!
Shut up! Camera!

Just download, and you're good to go.
You can turn it on and off with a touch.
Works Perfectly on my SE4GT!!
No more Shutter click clack!!
I love this phone.
But, I can't turn the camera shutter sound off.
I have seen the following solutions:
Edit build.prop and set the camera sound value to =0
or
Use Camera Zoom Fx app and delete the camera_click.ogg file
I would prefer to do the former.
I guess I need to root my phone to do this - or is there an easier way?
I have never rooted a phone and I don't have a need for a rooted phone other than to be able to r/w the build.prop file.
Can I root it, edit the build.prop file, and then unroot it and have the build.prop file keep my edits?
Does anyone have any straightforward steps on how to root and then unroot this phone?
Thank you for any guidance you can provide!

I believe that you can unroot directly from the superuser app that is sideloaded via this rooting method. Once unrooted, the changes that you made should remain. If they don't for some reason, all you have to do is keep root and just deny apps that request superuser access.

You would need to root it to edit the build.prop, as it is located in system. That other way to unroot might work to keep it but if you use lgnpst it would replace all the system files, giving you your stock build.prop again. If you wanted to delete the ogg file you would still need to root for that. At least on my phone the camera_click.ogg file is located it /system/media/audio/ui directory. You could just move it somewhere else as a backup. But....being rooted is awesome
is their a complete fix to this.?

You had to root the phone first right or no.?
This solution didn't work for me. I did all of it, and upon resetting permissions, it makes a new file" build.prop.bak and I still get shutter sound. Using es file explorer

i rooted my device where is the location to edit the camera sound.?
I dont see this code "ro.camera.sound.forced=1" anywhere
NVM. I found it, im getting old now.
but tested it and it works like a charm
HelloDominick - I still haven't gotten around to rooting the phone, so I haven't done this yet. Do you really have to have the sound off on the phone in order for this to work?

Yes. Even deleting the camera shutter sound and editing the build.prop result in this. I just did it myself

Anyone try repackaging the camera apk wi th out the shutter sound. Its what we had to do with the evo 3d`s

Hmm... That's interesting. Only thing I can think of is maybe set the permissions via adb? Maybe ES has some issue?

Found the solution to be rebooting after the entire process. I forgot I hadn't done it, and decided to just reboot for the hell of it. No shutter sound

I think (once rooted) is safest to just overwrite the click sound(s) with a silent one. Then it plays but you can't hear it. works for me and any camera proggy that defaults to the system will use it too.

On the LGoG it's in: system > media > audio > ui > camera_click.ogg
It may be in a different location on other devices.
You have to be rooted in order to write over system files, but I just renamed the original to camera_click.ogg.bak and then copied the silent version in with the same original name "camera_click.ogg" less the quotes and making sure it's an ogg file too, so there is no system playback error.
Hope that helps.

I assume it's the LGoG you are attempting this with?
Mine is the first generation (incase there are other generations.)
You'll also want to verify it was overwritten. I'd try playing the sound once you do... just to be sure it's the write file.
Otherwise, you might search your device for the sound and see if it's listed elsewhere.
In case the program you are using does not have "system" write capability, I might suggest ES File Explorer.
Either way, you will have to access the settings to turn on the ability to "write" to root in order to "overwrite the file".
Additionally (if the file is changing back - or so it would seem)... be sure to check the permissions it has before you overwrite it and when you do (assuming success).. make sure to set the "new" files permissions to the same as what the old file had. Else, the OS might overwrite the "new" file with a tared (backed up) version... knowing that it's been screwed with.
It's kind of a form of protection from corruption (computer sees potentially bad file and replaces it with good file.)
Good luck and happy fourth!
Phantom camera_click.ogg
I beg your forgiveness for my ignorance, but I've never done much tweaking to file systems after a rooting... but my gf has the Sprint Optimus G and can't find the camera_click.ogg file at all using Astro File Explorer. Does anyone know any other location it may be at? As a computer technician, I'm embarrassed at my lack of know-how around the Droid OS!
Not sure if you looked at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2051384
Read the op then go to page 11 and you see there are 2 fields that need to be changed.
After you do that and reboot as it states, you will have sound when you have your volume on and no camera sound when you turn the volume down to vibrate or silent. At least that is how it is for me. I prefer it that way.
Hope this helps

Naturally
Per Murphy's law, after she and I both looked for around 30 min before giving up and me posting on the forums, I downloaded the ES file explorer and found both files within seconds.
Got it with the silent camera while the phone is on silent/vibrate. Now for a little tweaking to silence it with the volume up.
Thanks for your help, guys and gals. No wonder XDA-devs is one of, if not the, top-notch sites!

Does anyone know if there is a file you can remove to get rid of the volume adjust sound if the option is not included in a ROM to disable it?
i tried doing a google search and didn't come up with much. on some roms there is a file or two named volume?.ogg that you might be able to delete or rename in the system/media/ui folder, but some roms don't have those files, or any .ogg files related to volume adjust sounds in the media folder. no one knows where i could find them? the rom in question is Elemental 4.2.2, but i've seen other roms that did not have a way to get rid of it.
i dont recall the "volume adjusting".ogg file in system\media but if the related .ogg file isnt there and your rom doesnt have that option either; it would seem that theres no alternative... from my knowledge anyway.
i'm just wondering because there has to be a file somewhere that controls that sound. i mean, how do devs turn it off when they give you the option in the rom to disable it? unless you have to decompile the rom first instead of finding it with a file explorer, but somehow i think that isn't the case.
