So, I have a strange issue that it seems no one else has seen.
My Ringtones and Notification sounds will change when the phone is rebooted.
This has been happening since i got the phone. It has happened with every Samsung firmware and it still happens now that I am running Bionix Fusion 1.1
I have even tried moving all the ringtones and notifications that I use into the system sounds folder (/system/media/audio/) in the subfolders for ringtones and notifications using root explorer.
I also tried moving and or renaming the sounds that get used by the phone when it changes the tones.
The strangest thing that has happened so far is that I renamed the battery full notification sound, but I left it in the folder, today when the phone was charged up, the battery full notification played.
any info at all would be appriciated, thanks
Hello
Can anyone please tell me how to disable the camera shutter sound, and the vibration when the battery is full?
bump..........
Not sure you can on a standard ROM but if you pick one of the many custom ROMs out there most already have these set in.
I'd recommend CM7 or Cognition for the more standard look

If you don't want to install a custom ROM, as long as you're rooted you can disable these sounds by installing ES File Explorer, navigating to the audio files for the Camera shutter and battery notification sound, and renaming them. This prevents the Android OS from calling them.
Instructions in here for the battery notification: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17932560&postcount=11 Use the same instructions for the camera shutter but confirm the right file name.
Hope this helped.
Well thankyou for your suggestions, but what does ROM mean? And what does rooted mean?
I have read that a custom ROM is like a custom operating system. I have come across CM7 before when looking for a way to have lock screen gestures.
I still don't know what rooting is. Is that much safer than custom ROMs?
How does any of this affect my warranty?
This appears to be a novice's rooting guide:

Would that be suitable for me?

Works perfectly.
rename cam_start, cam_stop for video.
Slightly off topic but i want to share that my UK model sgs2 on stock ki4 rom 2.3.4 has silent camera when the phone is in silent mode

Sorry, but am having difficulty locating those two files.. cam_start & cam_stop? which folders are they in?
the file location is /system/media/audio/ui deletes all files containing camera, shutter, alnd video recording, in total 6 files
Using a file explorer (such as Root Explorer), Create a file in /data called local.prop and add the line "ro.camera.sound.forced=0". Now restart your phone.
This removes both the shutter and focus sounds when your phone is on silent, but keeps the sound when it's not on silent.
To disable full battery vibration, it requires decompiling SystemUI.apk and editing code.

I have changed this setting, restarted, confirmed it is still there with no typo's and still this makes the auto-focus sound with all volume levels of media, system etc on silent.

Can you please advise specifically which 6 files these are, as I have renamed all of the ones I can see that are relevant yet still have the autofocus sound.
I have previously had a camera.apk provided from this forum which had the autofocus sound disabled and the 15% battery limit that stopped recording removed, however I have recently upgraded to 2.3.5 (stock) and this APK no longer removes this annoying focus sound.
With all the files that I've renamed already I've stopped every sound other than the one. Please help
It seems like no matter which CM7 build I install which pertains to my SGA phone, the headphone icon turns on in the notification bar and stays on all the time. When I plug my headphones in, the phone's earpiece kicks on as I would like.
My only issue right now is the headphone mode turning on by default with no headphone connected. I have tried various custom CM7 roms including CM 7.2 by KANG and the headphone icon appears in the notification bar for each of these roms.
Is there something I need to do to get the phone off of the headphone default mode. The headphone mode doesn't wanna seem to go away.
I am a noobie so all help would be sincerely appreciated.
There's an option to turn it off in cm settings in status bar tweaks, that should fix it but it won't come on when you have headphones plugged in

Hey all, im trying to find a profile widget taht will allow me to switch between sound, vibrate and vibrate with sound. So far none of the widgets I have found will do that. If sound is on it will have sound and vibration. I can work around it by lowering vibration intensity in settings but was looking for a quicker way. Anybody know of anything like this out there? I used to run CM and they had the functionality in their profiles but I cant seem to find anything else out there. Maybe im the only one that is still annoyed that I cant make this happen? Or maybe there is something that will do this and im just out of touch. Either way any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi,
So I have noticed one bug on my Poco F1. When I turn on sound on keyboard typing, the sound gets disabled after sometime (especially after each reboot). In order to make it work again, I need to turn off the option and on again. I noticed it on Gboard and AOSP keyboard (on custom ROMs) as well.
Right now I'm on miui Global 8.12.20, and I face the same issue every now and then.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue or why the heck keyboard even stop producing sound?
I know a lot of people don't use the sound on keyboard, but I like it a lot.
