Hello everyone, I was wondering, I have the wonderful Bionix 1.8 installed using JAC's ocuv voodoo kernel and have a problem that has persisted for over a month now. I figured I would ask here to not clutter som's thread.
All I want to do is delete every notification sound off my phone, except for the "Tweeters" sound file. I have selected tweeters as my main notify sound but I keep getting a musical riff that is endless and extremely annoying. So, is it safe to remove these files and force the phone to use only one sound file? Anyone know where these files are stored and how they can be deleted?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Sound files are all over the place on the phone. Try using root explorer, swtich to read write mode and then delete the sound files you do not want.

I really appreciate the hard work everyone puts into these modifications. Still an android noob.
I have RC4 installed (and a few nightlies previously)
1) How do I delete write protected files in the system folder such as ringtones and alarms that came with CM7? I've tried different file managers but I only get errors. I have my own media, and the media choice lists are just too darn long.
2) The radio update posted in development, does that have to be flashed every time I wipe and install a new nightly? Or is it permanent? What if I wipe all of the phone's storage folders in clockwork?
3) Do new kernels, such as Ladios', have to be flashed over a "fresh" cm7 install or can be be added at anytime with no ill side effects?
Some minor things I've noticed
-Custom media put into a ringtone or alarm folder on the sd card tend to be repeated twice in media lists.
-The gps icon gets "stuck" in the notification bar even when off
Thanks!!

1) You have to be in recovery to remove things from /system/. Or you can remove them from the .zip before you flash the rom.
2) Its permanent. The only way to change/revert it is to flash another radio.
3) Can be flashed anytime.
Hi there,
I'm using Trigger Redux on my Vibrant, but this question applies to pretty much any ROM. I've searched the forum but couldn't find a good answer:
I have a ton of stock ringtones; I don't like, use or want many of them. How can I remove them?
I found Ring Commander on the market and that's one option, but is there a way to do it without buying and installing a dedicated app?
Thanks.
root explorer
system > media > audio > ringtones
delete the 1's you dont want then reboot
Thank you! (I also clicked the button )
One question though: When I install a new version of CM (or Trigger), it will just put all the crap ringtones back in, right?

you could delete them out of the zip (same place as you delete from root explorer) before you flash it
I see... Maybe Ringtone Commander would be the least-hassle way to do this after all.

probably easier to delete them before you flash a new 1 actually, can highlight the 1's to delete then just delete them
never heard of that thing and dont know what it does but might be easier with that after flashing
Does anyone have the problem with the latest ICS passion rom that your ringtones dont save when you reboot? I have to set them each time I reboot my phone.
Anyone know of this or how to fix it?
Thanks so much,
Rob
I am unable to replicate your problem. I've set my settings under "Sound/ ringtone & Notifications" and reboot and they still have the same settings and ringtones.
Otherwise the only way that I believe your settings change is if you recently upgraded or that you have a bad flash. Maybe reflashing will fix this.

I'm going to assume you are using a custom ringtone. It seems to be a cm9 thing. ICS Passion is based on cm9. there are other settings that don't stick too like adb debugging etc.
No problems here. I had to reset them after flashing the new kernel, but that was about it.
I can choose my Ringtone but the settings are note saved
Same for me I`m on 1.3 ICSNexusHD2-4.0.3
I can choose my Ringtone but the settings are note saved.
only the standardringtone I choose (f.e. my own ringtone) is saved
I mark an original ringtone and tap ok, after reopen the settings the ton wasn`t saved !
Any helpfull solutions ??

Hi All,
I just updated to XXLSJ via ODIN (sources form this forum). I also rooted using PhilZ CWM v3.1 kernel.
Everything works fine except the notification sound in stock email apk. Whatever I change it to it always uses the "Postman" sound which was default after flasing. I have also changed the default system sound to something else but the email apk seems to ingore this setting as well.
Any help or thoughts will be appreciated!
Thanks!
I have similar problem with XXLSJ Firmware (NeatRom). I tried to change the alert sound but the postman is still ringing. My solution of this problem is quite simple. Just pick a melody you would like to sound when emails come in and rename it to S_Postman.ogg. All the notifications are placed in /system/media/audio/notifications. You need root privilleges to do this. I used Root Explorer but you can use any other software to do it. Good luck!
So I'd been using a replacement Z ultra for a few days after cracking my screen and receiving what I'd assume was a refurb. Now no media will play, all forms of applications that can source media from all different paces can't play anything. EG facebook videos throw up an error, walkman app when selecting a song will skip each song on an album one at a time, yutube videos "There as an error"
My question is, has anyone encountered this before, or how would I go about trying to diagnose it, I've already factory restored along with flashing a CE firmware, along with restoring to my first TA backup., to no avail.
Thanks.
This is happening to me too I messed with the media xml
Hope I can fix this root and locked bootloader my Xperia is mute
No more tinkering for me pure stock

That's what's really odd, surely restoring to factory, flashing a default ftf or anything else should fix it.

I'm pure stock just root, I went to copy the media_paths. xml and my sound is all gone so we're both facing the same issue.
I made a copy of the default xml but when I put it back, still no sound, YouTube error and songs skipping really fast.
Hey bro I fixed it myself.
Here is how.
If you need the original mixer_paths.xml I can provide that. You must delete the file you want to replace and not overwrite it.
So in my case I wanted the volume increase what I did was download it, overwrite my original and reboot and had no sound. You must delete the current mixer_paths.xml completely off your phone and then install the custom one.
So again to regain sound
Navigate to device, system, etc and delete the mixer_paths.xml before placing the new one DO NOT OVERWRITE
Have you deleted the file named platform.xml in system/etc?
Please double check it and make sure the permission of that file is 644.
someone found a solution?same problem here :crying:
