There is a system ui sound USB.ogg. This one plays when you connect USB power and it is an ugly beep. Is there any way to remove/kill/disable it? That is on OOS11, rooted. I have tried to remove it from shell and from root explorer, partition is r/o.
My specific problem with the sound: I have DND schedule, it start at night. Then I go to bed and connect charger. That is when the sound supposed to play. It doesn't because sounds are muted by DND. So far so good. Now there is morning and alarm plays, staring with a soft melody. The moment alarm plays DND recognizes there is an alarm and phone stops the DND (I know I can disable that and I did). For some unexplainable reason phone decides to play this ugly beep which it was unable to play in the evening when I was connecting it to the charger. Instead of the nice soft alarm I am awaken by the ugly usb sound beep. This has started with some build of OOS11.

Hi All,
I personally dis-like the start up tone motorola picked for it's Defy (and the shut down tone).
Is there way can be modified to other of my downloaded tone or make it silent when starting up the phone every day ?
Thanks a lot.

disable sdcard notifications
You can download Silent Boot from the market.
Or copy the sounds you want to /system/media/audio/xxxx (whatever folder), remember to set permissions similar to the other files and then reboot. The problem is the sdcard is not mounted yet when it tries to play the sounds.
Thanks to ALLLLLLLLLLLL,
I did not know this is sound relate to the SD card when mounted.
I did that just to un-check the sound in the SD card notification.
Thanks again!

I have SD card notifications turned off. My phone boots silently, but it still plays a loud and annoying beep when I switch it off. Is there any way to fix this?
Try installing Silent Boot from the market; It works for shut down too, despite its name.
Can it also kill that horrible beep that sounds every time I unplug the USB cable? That doesn't involve booting or shutting down my phone.
No, but you could use any program that allows you to set the System volume.
So that's were that horrible beep is hidden. Thanx. I silenced it with Quick Settings.
Do you know how can kill the beep that plays when I push the volume rocker? The visual volume indication is enough for me.

Did you manage to find where is located that beep on unplugging USB cable? It's horrible...
I have a 2013 N7, stock rom, Glitch kernel... and a weird problem.
Occasionally, when my morning alarm is supposed to go off, it doesn't. The screen will turn on, the option to snooze or dismiss the alarm will show, but there is no sound.
The volume is all the way up, and if I start to play music or a video it will have sound... but the alarm will randomly be silent.
Has anyone ran into the issue before? Surely this wouldn't be a kernel issue, would it?
Any ideas?

alarm sound is a totally different slider than the media volume, so while you may be able to play music, the alarm sound can be off. go into setting and sound and click on volumes and let me know what you see. alarm volume should be towards the bottom (i think)

You were correct, Alarms volume is at the bottom. Alarms volume is turned all the way up.
Is there any way (with or without root) to fix these idiotic sound settings?
If I set the device to silent it goes into Do Not Disturb mode which also stops me from getting ANY notifications on my Gear Fit 2 or other smart watches.
I want to get all of my notifications just like when the phone is in vibrate mode but I don't want it to vibrate. The vibration mechanism in this phone is super low quality and vibrates so loud on my work desk. Looking for a way to set the device to silent without turning on DND. I want notifications but no vibration.
Any ideas?
I've noticed that if you have your phone's sound set to vibrate, then there's no ringtone or vibration when you're in Android Auto connected to your vehicle. This wasn't the case with my Nexus 6 on Nougat. Is anyone else experiencing this behavior? The call will be missed if you don't happen to see the call on your car's display screen. The only way to change the volume at this point is to disconnect from AA and set it, then reconnect. I would expect that the phone should defer to the volume set on the car once connected.
Yes. I had a similar situation last night, a text message came in and the only notification was the the on-screen popup. On my last phone it would send a notification via the car speakers.
Try going into the Do not Disturb settings, and under automatic rules, toggle Driving off. I haven't had a chance to test my notifications in the car since turning this off, but I do remember reading about this being a "feature" of Oreo, I think. Seems like a pain in the ass to me.

Android Auto should completely override the automatic driving mode in DND. In reality Android Auto's notification setting should supersede all other notification settings.
I'm having trouble with both the "mute" sound mode and DND even with no exceptions set. Based on both the manual and the description in the UI they should be muting my media sounds, but they're not. I even rebooted the phone into safe mode and set DND with mute and loaded up web pages and youtube and there it goes playing sounds when my phone shouldn't be making a peep. I did a search for mute and didn't turn up much on the forums. From the S9 user manual it says "Mute: Set your device to make no sounds.", so I take that to include media just like with every other device that has a mute feature.
Has anyone else experienced this, or can replicate by setting their mute & DND then trying to play a youtube video? Before I go through the headache of a factory reset I'd like to confirm if it's just my device. It's really important to me that I'm able to throw my device into silent mode and that it's actually silent and not going to start screaming at max volume if I'm reading the news and it decides to autoplay a video.
DND mutes notifications and ringtones, I'm guessing their wording of also muting media means something other than apps that play music or videos that you manually invoke
Use the media volume control to mute media like that
Well, I was able to solve this with Tasker. I set up a variable watcher on interrupt and whenever it changes away from all it mutes my media volume. The downside is it doesn't appear that Tasker can do anything with the Samsung sound profiles, so I can't actually use the mute option to mute my phone.
