I'm have a RAZR MAXX on .211 rooted and I'd like to change the notification/ringtone sound for the Emergency Alerts app but I can't find the sound file. Does anyone know the directory/folder it can be found in?

Hi, On my rooted ICS XT910, the following folder has a load of sub folder with sound files:
/system/media/audio/
I hope this is what you're looking for.
Type in any root explorer
.ogg
It will return all media system sounds.
Cheers

Has anyone ever found the file name?
Emergency Alert File
I found it on my HTC One as the following:
/system/media/mms/atis_tia_cmas_alert.mp3
I have replaced the file with a different sound, and I guess I'll have to wait for the next alert to see if it worked.

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?

Do you know where it is or how to find it? How do I convert it?
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.

I have a rooted Droid X2 and am currently running Liberty 3. I would like to add a boot animation sound to the phone. Can some one provide some guidance on how this can be accomplished?
I have a write up ill find it
Edit: I can't find it but google how to android bootanimation and there is plenty of articles
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Open the bootanimation.zip (under system/media/) and you will see a desc.txt file. That controls the animation. Open the text file and you will see something like
p 0 0 part0
The p declares that to be a part or element
Underneath that line, type
s (file name)
Or
s bionicsound.ogg
Make sure you put the sound file in system/media/audio folder

Thank you for the information. I've found the file that you mentioned, but cannot figure out how to edit it? Any ideas?
You can edit it on your comp. I haven't tried to edit it with my phone. I don't think you can edit it with your phone always. You'd have to decompile and recompile it if you do it on your phone. But you can use 7zip on windows and skip the compiling stuff.

I believe the sound file should be placed in
system/media/audio folder/notifications.
But that's just My opinion I could be wrong
Yes, you are correct. The file needed to be placed in the notifications folder. Does anyone know how to increase the volume of the audio file? Is that even possible?
Oh yeah sorry, my bad. The only way to increase it is to use an editing program to increase the decibel.

Did you end up finding the software to increase it? and did it work?
im having the same issue. i pulled one of my transformer notification sounds, converted it from MP3 to OGG format which worked, but like you, i can barely here it.
Where would I be able to find the screen press sound for ICS? I want to replace the TW one sound with this one. Any help would be appreciated.

This is similar. Change permissions appropriately and reboot after you drop it in.
Thanks. That was the right sound for the ICS tick. I had to actually replace the file called TW_Touch.ogg on the GB ROM with the effecttick.ogg. I did rename it, etc. Turns out that TW will use it but it blasts it so loud that it is almost as bad as the TW sound was. I had to edit the effecttick.ogg file in Audacity by lowering the gain to an acceptable level for me. Then redid the process. Worked like a champ and now I have the sound I was looking for.
I've attached the file I made in case anyone wants to do it to.
Can you get access to the notification tones and view the file seperatley? im wanting to take a notification sound from my s3 and put it on another android device.
Hi,
They are in system/media/audio/notifications
Need root access, or just download a stock ROM (or any ROM with, at least, no sound modification) and extract the souds you want.
It's in system/media/audio

Okay. What about a folder where I can find the contents of the long press search key with root Explorer. That way I can add it to the folder..?

Not sure if this is what you need but,go to system/usr/keylayout/ cy8c201xx.kl
Here is where the hardware keys are bound to some actions.

So I went into that code changed it. But it didn't work. So I changed it back. Well now my home key doesn't work nor does haptic feedback. Notification keeps popping up in the notification bar and says choose input method. Please help. I've installed SwiftKey and wiped data for Android keyboard. I have also checked against another phone that is working fine the folders in usr/key layout.

First rule before you edit any system file is to make a backup...
Any way if you used rootexplorer to edit that file it should have made a backup on it's own so if you look in your folder there should be a file with .bak at the end,so,move it out of there so you can rename it (remove .bak) and just put it back,rootexplorer will ask or tell you theres already a file with that name and if you want to replace it,just hit yes,then reboot you device.

I did that but it didn't work. I think it changed another file. It seems that it wants to keep going back to an external hardware keyboard. The one that it changed was querty.kl. I'll send pics.

Ya that was the first one I changed the "cy" file, then I went through all folders in the keymap folder and looked for differences against a control. The only one that seemed to change was the query file. Your page was unresponsive.
