I've tried to stop the system battery notification chime as I found it a nuisance. Currently I use BatteryBot Pro and have alarms set with notifications but it doesnt override the system sound. I tried deleting the LowBattery.ogg file under system/media/ui and also switching it with another ogg file and rename it. Has anyone had any luck with this? Somehow I changed it on my first Droid the Motorola Droid X a few years back successfully. Thanks!

I wish I could put this question in a more thought provocative way... but the problems very simple and random:
I've been running the latest evil fascination rom on inmuts -50uv kernel for over a week now with spectacular results in every aspect of the rom. (honestly one of the most satisfying rom packages imo) *with outstanding battery life I might add*
The weird: when I first set up the phone, I assigned on of the standard android notification sounds for my text messages. A day or two ago, it changed on its own and when I went back to the settings, the only two options I got were "silent and facebook pop"... (*note: I don't even have Facebook app installed and have not a long time ago.. I just use the browser)
This same problem occurred in my default Clock app as well and so now the only sound option I am able to assign for any of my alarms is "silent' ...irony kills me
Any ideas as to what might be going on? I use custom ringtones but I have never made a custom notification folder on my sdcard so whatever must be clashing/happening might be internal.
Taking a blind guess, but I'm guessing the facebook app created the notification folder on your sdcard where the "facebook pop" resides. And for a different reason you probably have a ".nomedia" file in your system/media folder. Delete that file to regain your original sounds.
Resolved!
Thank you so much, that did do the trick. Both the .nomedia file as well as the facebook sound file that was creeping around in the system/media directory.
It would be nice to know how it decided to revert the settings on its own...
Glad it worked. I had the same issue when upgrading to the latest evil fascination rom using the latest patch.
Don't know why it happened but was an easy fix
I attempted to change the boot sound. I got the animation working perfectly. But the sound is not working at all now. No sound, nothing.
The FinalThunder.mp3 has been renamed, and the original still works. But the new one doesn't. Anyone got any idea what might be wrong?
I've Checked:
Permissions
File Locations
If the file ACTUALLY has audio
it works in "android emulator"
bumping for great justice. This will not only help me, but hundreds of others who are having the same issues in the theming sections!
bumping again before sleep...come on, someone has to know this.
My Vibrant periodically "loses sight" of media I have downloaded. I have downloaded ringtones off of zedge and podcasts through Dogg Catcher. Periodically (not sure what causes it), the phone cannot find those things. This means that if I have set a custom ringtone, my phone does not ring. I have missed several calls because of this. At first, I thought it was a Zedge issue, but it happens in DoggCatcher as well. I will go into play a downloaded podcast, and I get an error that the file cannot be found. If I reboot, it fixes itself, but it happens later.
I am running Bionix Nextgen, but I know it's not a ROM issue, because it also happened on other ROMs I have used. I think it's a matter of my phone looking for a file in a certain place instead of where it is housed. Could it be an SD issue? Anyone have this happen to them? Any help is appreciated.
Hello
Its time to do a new custom rom again, my question is that all the roms have taken out the sound notifications full charge and minimum charge battery.
Is there a way for me to put them back in ?
Use Root Explorer and follow this path,
System-media-audio-ui-TW_Low_Battery.ogg, that .now there must be something sitting next to that .ogg extension (could be .bak), that's why it's silent, to get it back just remove the extension, whatever it is, and make it .ogg. Same goes for Full charge notification.
Besides, why on earth a Custom ROM disabled those sounds by default, such a bad idea IMO.
Regards.
Hi
All those TW_Battery.ogg have no extension they all end in .ogg
Oops. No idea then.
designgears probably removed the sound using something like this:

You can always use the Tasker app from the market to play an audio clip when the battery is fully charged. It is ROM-agnostic.
Call screen is awesome but most people would just hang up right after they hear "Hi, the person you're calling is using a screening service...". So I figured out a way to customize screen call greetings and other built-in screen call audios. Please follow these steps:
1. Make sure your Pixel is rooted since you will have to modify app data inside the /data/data directory. Also make sure call screen is activated on your phone as this ensures that all audio files are already downloaded before we proceed to next steps.
2. Use any root explorer -- in my case solid explorer, to navigate to /data/data/com.google.android.dialer/cache/incall_audio_files directory.
3. You can see two folders. one contains audio files for female voices (suffixed with "_f"), the other one has audio files for male voices(suffixed with "_d"). Open folder of your choice (male/female voice) and you will find a list of audio files. Locate the ones you are interested in and replaced them with your own voice. I used "Audio Recorder" from F-droid to do the recording. The default audio files that Google used for call screen are in opus format so you might want to record your own voice in this format as well. After that just give it the same name as the audio file you want to replace and use any root explore to replace it. If you look at the attachment, I only replaced the file audio for greetings ("Hi, the person...").
I tested this on my Pixel 3 XL with Phone apps from version 27.0.225048436 to 29.0.232527399. I believe it should work on all phones that have call screen enabled including but not limited to Pixel 3, Pixel 3XL, Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel and Pixel XL. That being said, your mileage may vary.
UPDATE1:
For version 29 and above, audio files are now located under "/data/data/com.google.android.dialer/files/superpacks/call_screen_audio_messages". To quickly locate which audio file to replace, open "/data/data/com.google.android.dialer/files/superpacks/manifests/call-screen-audio-messages-1" and you can find the map between audio file name and its corresponding call screen audio transcript. See second attachment.
is there a demo u can show us?
Oneplus 7 Pro running OOS 11.0.1.1 and Google Phone 70.05.40
I worked on this for a few hours tonight and made some progress but didn't quite get there. I can get the audio files replaced (no easy feat on A11...) but the google phone app appears to be downloading and replacing my edited file at startup.
I set the permissions back to that of the original (chmod 600) and set the owner/group back (chown u0_a228: u0_a228) to what the original file was. I think this is where things are going wrong. If I don't set the permissions back the assistant will answer the call, but the caller hears nothing. Set permissions, reboot, and it downloads the default audio file at app launch again. I have only set all permissions and owner/group back to default, I've not yet tried any combinations.
The call_screen_audio_messages-10 file in manifests has urls that point to a .zip that it extracts. I'm going to try breaking this url, or point it to a .zip of my edited audio file. Another thing I noticed is the manifest file has the md5 sum of the corresponding audio file. Replacing that sum with the sum of my edited audio file made no difference though. For tonight I'm burnt out. Any suggestions are very welcomed!

any progress lol ? i'm trying to figure it out as well
Unfortunately no. After a week of using it I began having huge battery drain. 100% to 25% in 4 hours kind of drain. I removed everything related.
