First of all, I am new to everything about smartphones. So if this is in the wrong forum, please move for me and I apologize. I just successfully rooted my LG Optimus x2 and I have deleted all the factory apps I wanted. I really haven't noticed a faster phone. Why? Should I?
But, I can't find any of the .odex files I am suppose to delete. Where are they? I have deleted all the .apk files I wanted to delete and the corresponding files in the data/data folder but I can't find any .odex.
Also, does anyone know how I can delete the camcorder shutter sound? Thats the original reason why I wanted to root my phone. And to make it faster with a better battery life. I want the thing barebones.
Thank you
How are you removing them? Titanium backup is the easiest ws. Get the pro version and you can simply freeze them so they are out of the way and if you accidentally freeze something that makes your phone wonky. You just thaw it and it's all good again. If you delete the wrong file you can fubar you're phone. Be careful.

One way to silence you're shutter sound would be to make a recording of silence locate the sound file associated with your shutter. Make sure you're silent recording is of the same file extension, I'm guessing it would be ogg you can't just change the extension you will need to convert it if its not the same. Rename it to you shutter sound file and replace it with your silent sound file. You will need a file explorer. In the market.

I am using Titanium backup. But if you freeze apps, they are still on your phones memory, so that is why I delete them. I am done deleting now. I deleted the junk and things I don't use. So far everything is working great. Thank you for your concern. I understand what I am deleting, so I think!, and I am done now.
But with this freeze, maybe I can freeze the file with the camcorder shutter sound. Does any one know where it is?

Restart your phone and press volume down and home screen button then select reset factory so all ur factory apps restored.

No idea where it's located, you could use a file explorer to search for specific file types like
. Ogg you might find it That way. Search the Internet for an audio converter. Lots of free and open source ones.

If anyone wants to make a zip for flashing,
that'd be great,
everytime I attempt to do so,
I get stuck at the Splash.
I know Tazz's ROM (probably others too) has some DSP controller that lets you nearly double the volume. Careful you don't blow out the speaker though.
Is that only system sounds though? I too would love to find this out, the media sound volume is a bit on the soft side.
Dsp manager on kaosfroyo makes high pitched noise and distortion. It doesn't in other roms?

I have an app called LVH v3.6 (loud volume hack) that boosts all volumes a LOT!
I don't remember where I got it from or even if I paid for it or not. Let me know if you have trouble finding it. If you do try it and want to know what settings worked for me, let me know and I'll look them up.
You have the option to backup your original settings in the app before selecting a custom one. It saves to your SD card.
It's permanent until a full rom flash.

DSP Manager always creates mad amounts of distortion.
Also, I know those apps exist.
Do you know what it actually changes?
It has to add a file or delete or alter a previous.
It doesn't work off of magic.
Lol.

Of course it's not magic. The filename of the backup file it creates is "AudioFilter.csv". I don't know if it's just a copy of an existing file or just a record a previous values. LVH has a folder of files by the same names of the different values (I'm guessing) it can use.
I'm about to flash a new version of the rom I use. Once I'm done restoring apps and such, if I have time maybe I'll do nandroids of before and after applying the LVH settings, and compare the two and determine what file(s) changed.

I'd be curious too for the headset jack. It's decent but my FM transmitter doesn't put out full volume and I have to turn up my radio in my Camry to like 40 where normally it would be 30.
I bought the program. When I get to a computer I'll rip **** apart. I've been looking at the files with Root Explorer and such right now. Lots of values for things I've never heard of. Hahahahaha. But, I'll get some files made up with the best sound quality and make a flashable zip eventually.

I've had LVH for over a year now and it rocks! I bought it when I had my G1 because the G1 speaker was barely audible at full volume. I installed it on my Eris after I rooted it and it works just fine. It also has a headset boost as well as an in-call volume boost!

If this makes the volume louder, I can hardly tell.
Maybe 10-20%? Definitely seems like the ringer volume itself is a little bit louder at its loudest (notifications/ringtones), but music/media and in-call speaker (speakerphone) I can barely tell a difference. Maybe time will tell!
Either way, thank you for this. Not hearing notifications and ringing are a big deal for me when I travel a lot with the windows down (of course, I use a blue tooth).
This is excellent, either way. Definitely increases volume at least a little bit.
Anybody know?

I recommend this more than the custom apk. This method is built-in and in case for some reason you want the sound back, the option is just a checkmark away.
The apk is also just a check mark.

If you're rooted all you have to do is use Root Explorer and go into:
/system/media/audio/ui
Change the name of "CameraClick.ogg" to "CameraClick.bak"
You can do the same for the video record sound...simple.

Yes, but doing the build.prop mod allows the toggle to be done from within the camera app which makes it much easier to toggle, as opposed to having to switch to another app.
No need to install anything. The easiest solution is usually always the best.
Yes. I didn't know you could do it from the app. Though easiest isn't always best.

No problem.
I'm trying to delete the file and it keeps saying it's read only iv'e tried changing the permissions and also the r\w on top no dice, lol what am i doing wrong
I just use Root Explorer and go to System/Media/UI then rename the Camera_Click.ogg to Camera_Clik.ogg just changing a single letter works and you can always restore it if wanted.
(You have to be Rooted)
How do I switch off sounds when booting, taking a photo or charging?
You need to root your phone. After that, use a root file explorer to go to /system/media/Audio/ui and delete/rename all sounds that you don't want to hear any more.

Thanks, but the apps would still attempt to play the sounds, only they wouldn't find it.
Isn't there another way to make the apps/system not try to play them at all?

No, unless you mute all sounds. There are no drawbacks from renaming the files. What's the problem?

Have the same problem, has any resolution been found ?
Edit : I have tried "Silent Boot" and "No Statup Sound" apps and they work once but the sound comes back.
^ another option all tho im sure this is not the op's problem:
-must have root
-install a root explorer app
-navigate to the system/media/audio/ui folder
-scroll down and add .bak to the end of files poweron.ogg & poweroff.ogg.

I have tried multiple file explorers and none of them work. Is there a free root explorer that will perform this task ?
Plain & Simple.
You get this annoying message everytime you unplug your phone from the charger?
0. Open your favorite fileexplorer with root support.
1. Find system/app/SemcUnplugChargerReminder.apk
2. Rename it to SemcUnplugChargerReminder.apk2
Done.
Or just delete that file. no need to rename it.
no harm in deleting
For me that function is not unwanted. I intend to forget it

Better rename it so if you want to see again the notification you just go and rename it back to .apk...
Deleting it will have no way back

The by far easiest way without the root needed is to long press the notification, enter app-settings and uncheck "get notifications"
just FREEZE the app using Titanium Backup, If you want it back simply DEFROST the app
