3) put it in your sd card
4) open root explorer

6)push the bac button and make sure it says "mount r/w"
7)go to "system"
8) go to "media"
9)go to "audio"
10) go to "ui"
paste it and a message about overwritting the sound and click yes

I hear a lot of people wanting to put certain shutdown animations on their phone. Maybe you like the one from Bionix 1.3.1 or the one from Sweethoney series of ROMs. Well, I decided to make detailed instructions on how to put any shutdown animation on your phone you would like.
I used the TV shutdown animation and audio on mine, but I imagine this would work for taking any shutdown animation you want from any ROM and making it your own.
You can get the TV shutdown screen on any ROM...you just use your computer to open the ROM.zip (generic name could be any ROM.zip).
1. Go to "system/media" folder and find the "/video" folder and take it from any ROM that has the TV shutoffx (I think Sweethoney 2.5 has it.)
2. Copy the entire "/video" folder to your desktop.
3. Now connect your phone via USB and copy the "/video" folder to your phone memory. Not your external sd card but your phones internal memory (I made a folder on my phone called "RomsKernelsFixes" for such files) Now disconnect your phone.
4. Use RootExplorer (found in Market) and go to the file on your phone (the "/video" folder) you copied from your computer. Long press the "/video" folder. Then chose "copy".
5. Now go to the "system/media" folder on your phone. Its in the first menu on RootExplorer. Paste the "/video" folder into the "system/media" folder (you may have to click the "enable R/W" button at the top).
6. Now reboot! You should have the TV shutoff animation.
Now for the audio. Same method. Start in the extracted ROM.zip This time the file is in the "system/media/audio/ui" folder. Its called "shutdown.ogg" I believe. Copy this file to your desktop and use the same method above for the "/video" file. But this time you paste "shutdown.ogg" to the "system/media/audio/ui" folder. Viola! Reboot. (you may have to delete the old "shutdown.ogg" first)
You now have the TV shutoff video and audio.
I may be incorrect about which ROM has it. But whichever does...that is how you go about taking it and putting it in any ROM you want.
Hope this helps someone.

Guys if you are new users and change themes files and remain safe then do like i describe other wise your Xperia arc can be on a boot-loop and restart it self
X theme pack the Original thread is here, you can download it from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137329
Method how to apply..............
1) first copy all those files and keep a backup of them in SD card, which you are going to replace from your System folder in this TUTORIAL
so that in future you can resore the orignal one if you want
2) Requirments:
2.1) your phone should be rooted
2.2) busybox installed
2.3) root explorer installed
here are three kind of themes Blue, Green, Red
you can download them from original thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137329
All the theme folder have three files inside them
a) framework-res.apk (you will find this file in system\framework)
b) SemcGenericUxpRes.apk (you will find this file in system\framework)
c) SystemUI.apk (you will find this file in system\app)
first of all copy all files into sd card
*** steps ***
1) first of all open root explorer open system and copy all your orignal three file you are going to replace and paste then in a folder in sd card, for example i make a new folder with the name (Orignal backup files )in my SD card and i paste my all orignal apps there you can do it by
go to system folder now you will see a boton on the top ( Remount as R/W ) tab on it now it will be like this ( Remount as R/O ) done, now you can copy your system apps
2) now go into SD card you will see a boton on the top ( Remount as R/W ) tab on it now it will be like this ( Remount as R/O ) done.
************Remember you shoud be tab this botton in both placec System folder and SD card***************
3) now copy framework-res.apk from theme folder you want to apply and paste it in system first now long tab on it, it will pop up a window tab on permissions you will see a box like this
............Read.....Write....Execute
User.......Yes.......Yes........-
Group......Yes........-..........-
Others.....Yes........-..........-
Select only those which i select in this Picture
now move it to system\framework
4) Do not exit your root explorer and do same with the file SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
copy SemcGenericUxpRes.apk from theme folder and paste it in system first now loang tab on it, it will pop up a window tab or permissions and set them like you did with first file
and move it to system\framework
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
after phone is on go to root explorer and copy the last file name SystemUI.apk
again Copy it to system tab on it select the permissions like describe uper picture
and paste it to system\app
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
Done
HOW TO GET BACK ON ORIGINAL THEME :
it is the same methord you did like uper but a little tricky
copy your origaln files now instead of custom theme files but in this order
now this time copy the third file first name SystemUI.apk
Copy it to system tab on it select the permissions like describe uper and paste it to system\app
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
after on copy and paste the secound and first file named
SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
framework-res.apk
Copy it to system tab on it select the permissions like describe uper and paste it to system\framework
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
Do same like this other wise you will break your phone software and it will go on a bootloop, i did it with my phone
then i again flash my phone with flash tool and update it through OTA... very loag method to do it...
takes a lot of time

Hi all
I'm very interested to apply one of the x-themes WITHOUT changing my own Lockscreen (official one)! How can I do that?
Thanks lot
In fact, all I desire, is battery pourcentage + network signal + wifi signal on red color
Hello, i have an huawei u8180, on it installed cm7 v1.1 subpsyke
i want to know if is there any mettod to set up a start-up sound (ex like windows or ubuntu).
sorry for my bad english
use this not my i found on cm forum
This is what you do.
1. Download this shell script here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10373328/bootsnd.sh
2. Place it on the root of your SD card & then open Terminal & type the followingsucd /sdcardsh bootsnd.sh
3. Now by using a file manager program with R/W (Read/Write) go to the /system/bin in your phone & make sure the file has transfered over! It should say BOOTSOUND & have permissions set to rwxrwxrwx! for this I use Root Explorer or you can use File Manager once you have selected R/W
4. Before transferring your sound file over rename it on your pc, android_audio and make sure it is a .mp3 file. Transfer the sound file from your pc to the root of your SDcard. Now move your sound file you want to play when the phone boots to /system/media of your phone & rename it android_audio you will have to be in R/W mode! Typically fifteen seconds is plenty long and just perfect, however anything over 30 seconds will get cut off.
5. Reboot & enjoy your new BOOTSOUND B)
If your having trouble getting sounds to play this should fix the problem.
Here is how to fix it. Make sure you are mounting in R/W mode on each of these steps.
To start go to
/system/etc/init.local.rc
and open it in the text editor. Delete everything from
###Bootsound - Safe to Delete: Start###
to
###Bootsound - Safe to Delete: Stop###
Delete any instances of IT
Using a app like root explorer, goto /system/bin and delete the file bootsound.Back out to /system now open build.prop in text editor mode, look for this text.
ro.config.play.bootsound=1
Delete it from the build.prop and save and exit.
This is optional but recommened. Reboot phone. Verify no sound is playing.
Now run the script again and reboot. You should have a boot sound again
working good) thx
p.s. how to decrease volume? (because it's dissorting)
Can anyone here help or assist me, How to change the Galaxy S3 Touch Sound???

This requires root!
The sounds (by default) are stored in /system/media/audio/ui/
!NOTE: This is for system/OS sounds. Notifications etc are not stored here!
Screen touch sound is "TW_Touch.ogg" and back and menu button sounds are "S_HW_Touch.ogg"
If you would like to change the sound to something else, find a mp3 or something that you would like to use then convert it to a .ogg format.
Can be done on this website: htt$p://audio.on$line-convert.$com/convert-to-ogg *Remove $ symbols from URL
Then rename your new .ogg to either "TW_Touch.ogg" or "S_HW_Touch.ogg" dependent on what sound you would like to change.
Place the .ogg file on your sd card and move it the mentioned directory and overwrite (delete) the original .ogg file (backup first).
Then remember to set the permissions of the .ogg file to "rw-r--r--" and make sure it is named correctly, it is case sensitive.
Reboot system and enjoy your new sounds :good:
I tried everything that you said and it doesn't work for me. When i try to move/overwrite the file it tells me "Cannot copy or move file". When i try to delete the orginal file first it tells me "Warning - Could not delete". I am on stock rom and rooted. When i try to change permissions to the original files it gives me error "unable to chmod /system/media/...bla bla". What to do?
Ok. I got it. Thanks for everything!! Thumbs up!

Your root has failed, download root checker to see.
If it fails you will need to re-root with CF-Root.
Very Awesome. Thanks for the help.
I am running into an issue. My phone has been verified as rooted by rootchecker. The only way I can see the root directory on the phone is with Astro File Manager. Once in the correct folder, I can see the TW_TOUCH.OGG file and have a replacement. However I can't write to the folder. I can't even rename the original. Checking the properties of the file I don't see any notations that the file or folder are write protected. I assume the entire drive is per se with the exception of the \SDCARD directory.
Is there a better tool for doing all this? I'd like to have something I can use from a PC as well.
Thanks,
Karl
Use Super Manager or Android Commander .

First you need to Root.
There are good guides around here.
I'd recommend ES File Explorer
Download it then
Open ES File Explorer
Menu > Settings > Root settings.
Check Root Explorer
Click Grant when SU popup appears.
Check Up to Root
and Check Mount File System.
Now it will copy succesfully to the system folder.
Slightly easier
No need to do renaming. Save desired oggs to your ext sd card.
Use Root Browser (ES doesnt seem to go to system no matter)
Use Root Browser. Go to your ext sd card. Long press on the desired .ogg. Copy it.
navigate to the folder l /system/media/audio/ui/ as instructed above.
Click paste. If your file is named correctly it will ask 'replace?' click yes. Do the same for the other file.
Reboot. You have to reboot. How it still plays water droplets before rebooting Idk. But reboot and you back to clicky goodness. (who thought of that water droplet. Chinese water torture.)
Edit: I attached the two files. Change from .txt to .ogg.
operation failed?

Rw-r-r. In a grid of 1 to 9, top left to bottom right, 1,2,3,4 ticked. 5,6,7,8,9 unticked. Should be immediate but if not, just reboot.

-you must be rooted
-download the file put it on your internal or ext memory card
-browse tru root explorer, solid explorer or any explorer that has access to system root
-find the TW_Touch.ogg and rename it to Effect_Tick
-make sure to backup everything up you can copy all the files in system/media/audio/ui incase of anything, but i would suggest a nandroid backup
-anyways copy the Effect_Tick.ogg that you earlier rename and copy to system/media/audio/ui
-if it ask to replace, replace it
-and set permission to 644(rw-r--r--)
-it should work as soon as you replace it, (it works for me) if in case just reboot
I will try other sounds, wait for it
