Turn off notification noise when wireless charging? - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to turn off the notification noise the phone makes when you place it on a wireless charger? I have a charging pad on my desk and I pick it up and respond to texts, etc a fair amount and it gets annoying hearing that noise every time. Yes, I can just set it to vibrate or silent, but I would still like to have the notification sound for all other notifications.
thanks in advance.

same problem here
Same issue here with exact reasons. Would like to know the answer to this. Rooting is not an option. Haven't Samsung tested this in the real world to know how the sound gets annoying when you frequently put on and off the phone on the pad??
Thanks in advance!

That doesn't work, the charging sound is linked to the notification volume.
So turning off notification volume is not a workable fix

---

Only solution I have found is to use Do Not Disturb feature in settings for the hours of 11pm to 6am

I dont have an issue at night, I use do not disturb already.
its during the day when I want to hear a notification noise for actual notifications, just not the sound it makes when I set it on the charging pad since I pick it up and reply to notifications regularly.

Mine is doing strange things. I put my phone on charging pad - makes a sound and that in about a minute gives me the same sound, like someone just put it on the charger again. Then this happens for the rest of the charging. every minute. What is going ON.
I just bought another wireless charger , and it's the same.
Any thoughts

---

I think what happens is the phone stops accepting a charge when it's 100% then it drops a few percent, and then starts again.
dumb.

---

I've not found a way to turn this sound off either. Very annoying.

yes..flash my Rom

I found a way to disable the charging sound via Tasker...
This Tasker profile essentially waits for a charging (powered) state, mutes notifications for 2 seconds, then returns the notification volume back to where it was. It has been working great for me.
Code:
Profile: Disable Charge Sounds (11)
State: Power [ Source:Any ]
Enter: Temporary Mute (7)
A1: Variable Set [ Name:%OLDVOLN To:%VOLN Do Maths:eek:ff Append:eek:ff ]
A2: Notification Volume [ Level:0 Display:eek:ff Sound:eek:ff ]
A3: Popup [ Title: Text:Temporarily Muting Background Image: Layout:Popup Timeout (Seconds):3 Show Over Keyguard:eek:n ]
A4: Wait [ MS:0 Seconds:2 Minutes:0 Hours:0 Days:0 ]
A5: Notification Volume [ Level:%OLDVOLN Display:eek:ff Sound:eek:ff ]
here is the xml if you want to try to import to tasker:

I assume you are rooted? I didn't have permissions to rename or replace the file. By the way, are you replacing it because of Knox or what?

Please run the following command in your shell...

The tasker profile is only working sometimes for me now, unfortunately. I think it has to do with how fast tasker is able to respond to the "charging" event. Sometimes playing the audio wins out in priorities, and the annoying sound plays. I chatted with Samsung online about this and below is their official response to this issue. In short, they recommend removing the phone from the charger when the battery is full, regardless of charging method. This is consistent with the online user guide as well. This is unfortunate, since most of us charge our phones overnight on our nightstands or desks.

Vinny: I'm sorry for the delay. I'll be right with you.

Vinny: Thank you for waiting. I'll be with you in just a moment.
Vinny: I will be right with you.
Vinny: Thank you for waiting. I'll be with you in just a moment.

Me: OK, thank you for your assistance.
Vinny: You're welcome. Is there anything else I can assist you with?
Vinny: May I help you with anything else?
Vinny: Not to rush you, are we still connected on the chat?
Me: yes
Me: no thank you. Goodbye.

Doesn't work on S7 w/Marshmallow?
Hi.. First, thank you. I am fairly new to Tasker, beyond some basics, so learned a couple things. This half works for me. Everything executes OK, except that the notification volume doesn't get turned down (to zero) before the chime, which I set the phone on the wireless charger. The chime occurs while Tasker is executing this profile, but before the volume is turned down. Anyone else noticing this?
