Ringtones and Notification change on their own - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I have a strange issue that it seems no one else has seen.
My Ringtones and Notification sounds will change when the phone is rebooted.
This has been happening since i got the phone. It has happened with every Samsung firmware and it still happens now that I am running Bionix Fusion 1.1
I have even tried moving all the ringtones and notifications that I use into the system sounds folder (/system/media/audio/) in the subfolders for ringtones and notifications using root explorer.
I also tried moving and or renaming the sounds that get used by the phone when it changes the tones.
The strangest thing that has happened so far is that I renamed the battery full notification sound, but I left it in the folder, today when the phone was charged up, the battery full notification played.
any info at all would be appriciated, thanks

[Q] How to disable "Battery is fully charged" notification?

It usually pops up in the middle of the night and can be pretty annoying. Any way to disable it?
Currently there is no full fix. This is the closest I have gotten: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748400&highlight=battery+popup
Why remove it? I find it very useful, nvm read wrong

yeah this is very annoying... has there been further development of a fix(REMOVE!) for this?!?!
If you have JI6 update already applied you will notice that they changed that annoying pop up to a simple notification which shows up in the status bar when battery is fully charged.
That is definitely an improvement for me.
Definitely NOT an improvement for me. I need to be able to be alerted at night when an SMS message comes in when I am on call, and really don't want to be woken up because my battery is charged. There really should have been a way to disable the it alone, not move it to something if you disable, you no longer will hear SMS, alarms, event,... notifications.
This worked for me. Read through all of the threads so you are confident what to do. Main thing is to flash the correct one and wipe the cache and dalvik-cache first.

I did find a good way to get around this problem, at least for me. Set the global Notification ringtone to Silent, then change the Ringtone on Messaging to something you want for texts and same for email. Then the battery charge won't make a sound, and I will still be notified on text messages and/or emails.
The only 'solution' I've found is to do as others have said, disable generic notification sounds, and in applications-development set it so screen does not stay on while charging. The popup still happens, but there's no sound and the screen times out after my setting of 2 minutes. This is lame because when I use it in the car for music, plugged in, I want the screen to stay on all the time. Epic 4g

VERY annoying on and off sound

The Atrix makes this extremely annoying sound when it's being turned on and off. I went to setting and sound to try to see if there was any options to disable this but I could not find anything. Does anyone know if it's possible?
thanks

Gingerblur 3.5 silences the SD mount/amount sound, look under development thread.

GladiAtrix silences the sound as well.

It plays the default notification tone when you mount/unmount the internal SD cards upon boot/shutoff. You can change/silence it in the sound settings. This will change/silence all notifications that use the default sound though. Be aware of that.

That doesn't always work. Mine doesn't even play the default notification, but rather a very loud and annoying ring.
I just changed to Gingerblur 3.5 and loving it.
I want to be able to hear notifications, just not SD card mounting/unmounting. The weird thing is that it doesn´t even play the new default notification sound that I´ve set (all other notifications do play the new sound).
After having messed up my Galaxy S I would really like to keep the Atrix clean and original as much as possible...so I´d really like to avoid installing new non official roms and such.

google silent mp3. download it. convert it to .ogg (necessary?) file using a free converter. put silent.ogg in /system/media/audio/notifications. reboot phone. change notification ring tone to silent. done
**must have root access and use something like rootexplorer**

But wouldn´t this disable all my notifications? I would like to disable only sd mounting/unmounting.

System Notification Sounds

Not sure where to post this.
Anyone rooted who can grab the system notification sounds? I want to put the "NewMessage" one my rooted Samsung phone, so I have the same sound playing when both get a msg. lol

[Q] Ringer/Notification sounds connected in ICS ROM question

Hey folks, question. Now it's driving me nuts how the notification and ringer volumes are connected now in ICS where as before we had the option to unlink them. I get emails all through the night but I can't turn my notifications down at night because it turns down the ringer, can't have that.
Anyone know of a way to break the link or am I just going to have to deal with it?
This seems to be a common issue with the ICS leaks. Unfortunately, I don't think any of the ROM developers have split them yet.
Very interesting.... I'll dig into it and see if we can't come up with a solution...

I've tried 4 different apps to solve this prob and none work right. I use sound manager to turn off notifications at night but leave ringer on, but i can't get it working with those apps.
Hopefully its an easy fix to unpair them.

Sounds good!!! Please keep us posted if you do find something, it's really driving me nuts. I don't know who's bright idea it was to remove the option to split them, dumbest thing I've seen in a while.
I just turn off the 3g/wifi before I go to bed. No emails come in, but texts and calls will still come in. Been doing that ever since I moved to Android.

I've been using Audio Manager app to control my volumes, you can set schedules when volume levels are to be changed, I never had to do anything manually. I have enough stuff going on everyday don't need another thing to remember to do before passing out, lol. Good idea though, if it gets too bad I may have to give that a go.
Bought ICS Enhanced Ringer control from the market - $2.99.
It duz separate the ringer/notification link however it must be manually enabled/disabled.
I'm hoping the dev adds a scheduler, or a widget to make it easier to enable.
Either way, it works and solves the problem.
Hi there,
I just want to share that for ICS there is a tool on the market which can disable notifications at night, while still the ringer is "enabled", not muted.
Problem with ICS is that notification volume is directly linked to ringer volume. When you manually disable notifications, you will never hear your phone ring....which can be bad.
So:
In case I don't want to hear notifications at night, but incoming calls will ring as normal I use the following tool (free from market) :
"ICS notification silencer free"
With the free edition you can only define 'one' profile, with a start and end time when to disable notifications (example:sleeping time).
With the paid version you can define more profiles, depending on day etc.
I liked the free edition already as it has enough features just to disable notification when I am asleep.
Hope you enjoy this tool, and sleep well on ICS

Another solution
Ive been dealing with this since ICS first came out, and its been driving me nuts.
I need no text notifications at night, but the phone needs to ring if someone calls.
I tried ICS ringtone control and ICS Silencer. ICS ringtone didnt have a scheduler so I had to set it manually every night.
For the last week Ive tried Profile Scheduler and its worked perfectly. I assume other profile apps would work too, so
check them out.
Heres what I did. Create/download a silent ringtone mp3 - I named mine "Silence - 30sec". I then went under the
"Night" profile and made the notification sound that ringtone, and left all the volumes the way they are. I then created
a rule activating that profile from 10p-7a. I then changed 'conditions not met' to the normal profile, to change it back to
normal when its done. Under the normal profile, I made my ringtone my original one.
Good luck, and until ICS unlinks the sliders, this has worked best for me.

Any updates?
Has anyone been able to separate the two?

I have flashed 5 different ROMs, and the only one (HTC Evo4G LTE) that separates them is CM10.
I ran it for a bit, but switched back to ViperRom, and use Phone Schedule app to simply change the ringtone
for my notification sounds, at whatever time I need.
I have a silent ringtone, and use it for notification sounds between 9p and 7a, and then it automatically
switches back to a audible music ringtone.
Hope this helps.

I think the linking of the two was a step backwards for 4.0. Hopefully this will be undone in future versions

I think they did it so when you turned the ringer volume up or down, the notification volume would go up our down accordingly, which is desirable behavior. But it is annoying if you need them to be controlled separately.

Notification sounds

Hey all,
I've never had this problem before with any other device. When you download a app such as snapchat or cashapp.. Even Facebook messenger it comes pre-installed with the apps specific notification sounds.
My MI note 10 automatically set all notifications to either silent or the default notification sound.
I can go into every app settings and download the correct sound but that just seems like a very time consuming way of correcting the problem.
Any suggestions? Thank you.
I will mention I'm using the masik rom but I don't think that has nothing to do with it because I had this problem on my stock Rom as well.
