How to use custom notification sounds to the LG V30? - LG V30 Questions & Answers

How do I add and use custom notification sounds to the LG V30. I don't like any of the stock notification sounds. Thanks

Try this, for the notification sound, place the sound in /sdcard/Notifications (create new folder if it not exist). For ringtones, in /sdcard/Ringtones.
Hope it works, cause it works in mine.

Thanks

Thanks, it did not work on my phone for some reason, but the Zedge app did work.

Did you reboot? Mine didn't recognize the new tone (for an alarm) until I rebooted the phone.

Perhaps rebooting is necessary for the OS to scan and repopulate the media. If it works you dont have to install 3rd party app, since android should already give you this basic feature. Screenshot of mine attached.

Worked great but be patient after rebooting: changes appeared a few minutes later in my LG V30. Thanx Hikku13.

Sounds files for Notifications

I have downloaded several sound files which I would like to use for "Notifications" email/sms etc. but I don't see those files when I go into
Settings - Sound and Display - Notification ringtone.
Do I need to put them in some specific folder structure or what?
thank you
If you are rooted, the stock notification sound location is:
/system/media/audio/notifications/

There's no need to stick notification and ringtone sounds in the system path though...
/media/audio/notifications/ and /media/audio/ringtones/ on the internal SD works fine too...And this doesn't require root...though root is so easy to obtain on these phones that it's hardly a distinction to care about...

Well this took me a day to throw together and it will become much bigger when I find sounds that work/sound right to throw in there.

--------------------------------
This needs a bit of testing but I know for a fact the shutter sound changes for sure (only when the camera is focused). As for everything else I'm not 100% sure about. Please give me some feedback!
I have tested Option 2 (setting back to default "after trying option 1 to changing my shutter to a dog barking") and it worked perfectly so no worries when going back to the orignal sounds

Lock Screen

hi! I come from a nexus 4 and I don't quiet like the Sony lock screen.. is there a way of changing it with a stock android one?
I kinda second this.
While there are numerous apps that act as lockscreen replacements, none of them actually do the job well. The one that comes closest to pure AOSP is Holo Locker (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobint.locker), but it's closer to ICS than it is to KitKat.
'Tis a shame since Sony's UI can actually be made to resemble AOSP, except for the single most seen screen on the phone -- the lockscreen (even the wallpaper can only be a static image ffs).

If you are on rooted your device then just delete the lockscreen apk and odex file from /system/app folder. now you are on stock lock screen.
I was looking for a way without using root.. I prefer wait for a root that doesn't lose DRM Keys..

Might I ask what the name of the lockscreen apk is? I found keyguard in priv-app but nothing of the sort under the app folder.
Have any other tips to make stock look like AOSP?

How did you make it work?
I tried deleting the Keyguard.apk and its .odex, that failed. Next, I tried an Xposed module but all I got from that was a bootloop.
Please, anyone?

If you don't use Pin or Pattern protection you can try disabling the lockscreen alltogether. The wallpaper thing was annoying me also. I've turned the thing off, works just fine to me.

I do prefer having a swipe lockscreen of some sort to place a widget (such as CLock) to be able to see things with a single push of a button, without really unlocking. Sony's way of doing lockscreens is just absurd, especially the way you can't set the background to match your homescreen. And those sparkles, ugh, don't even get me started.
Xperia Xposed let my live wallpaper show on lock screen
Tried many Xposed Xperia modules, all of them got me a bootloop.

The Keyguard.apk is the AOSP one so don't delete that, look for XperiaLockScreen.apk in the app folder and delete that.

I swear there is no XperiaLockScreen in there. And no, I didn't delete it, else I'd leave an .odex behind. Despite it missing, it's still working perfectly. Or, rather, as Sony intended it to work (which is, for me, far from perfect).
(See the attachment if you don't believe me -- I always leave .odex behind when I delete system apps just in case something goes wrong and I have to restore it from an earlier backup)
I absolutely love ACDisplay, similar to the motorola lock screen, and I really like the minimalist approach. I set it to show my background instead of the black screen and I think it looks great in combination with Tapet wallpaper app.

Can AcDisplay be set as the lockscreen (that is, can it be set to show itself even when there are no notifications)?
Having it wake up the screen will probably drain the battery as well, so unless there's a way to basically set it to act as a normal lockscreen, I'd avoid it.

Attach that XTP.apk or have a look at the res folders for any images that show what it might be for, they may have renamed it, or changed the way the Keyguard.apk works.

The XTP one is pretty much empty, no res folder, just the manifest and meta-inf. The keyguard is interesting though -- this is Sony's lockscreen!
Any chance replacing this with an older Xperia's Keyguard would work?
And to answer my own previous question -- AcDisplay can be made into the lockscreen. A damn good one, too, though I'd still like a system app.

They always have to make things that little bit more difficult it seems. You could try the old one for nothing, the attached one is a deodexed one from Z1C 157, can you attach yours, I'd like a look at that.

Yes you can set it to be as a normal lock screen. It works great, especially with double tap --> double tap to wake up (check clock or notifications) and again double tap to turn off the screen.
You can also set that notifications don't wake up the phone.

Thanks, I tried but it didn't work. For some reason, the status bar and navigation bar were disabled though. I'll post a link (or PM you) once I find a few minutes off.

Installed last night, works like a charm. Nice to see it's an Xposed module as well
Though I really do prefer KitKat's AOSP feel to this (WHERE IS CM11 DAMMIT).

I tried the Z3C on mine and the SystemUI crashed at startup so had to flash my backup, but at least thats a hint as to how to possibly make it work.

[MOD][iOS 10] Ringtone and Notification Sounds

Hey guys,
if anyone wants the iOS10 default ringtone and some well known Apple notification sounds, I made 2 zips I extracted from Alexis ROM. (Galaxy S6)
Note: There is only one ringtone available, since the original mod doesn't provide any others
If you want the default ringtone (most common one on Apple devices, you will know it for sure), just download iOS10 ringtones.zip below and extract the folder with Root Explorer (or any other root-file commander) in
Code:
/system/media/audio/ringtones
and give the ringtone permission 0644 (rw-r-r). Reboot phone, select the ringtone in settings (called "Opening") and enjoy. :good:
Same for notifications: download zip, and extract it to
Code:
/system/media/audio/notifications
and give all notifications 0644 (rw-r-r) permisision also.
If this was helpful for you, I would be happy if you hit THANKS :highfive:
Credits go to the awesome dev @AlexisXDA
Be aware, this is a repost of an old thread I made in s7 themes section. (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/themes/ios-10-ringtone-notification-alarm-t3564399)

It's possible. It just takes more work.
Hey bro thanks a lot! This was greatly appreciated cos even though I prefer android for pretty much everything, ios has the best ring and text tones imo and all the mp3s out there you can download are trash quality. Thanks so much for this!!!!!! I literally couldn't find this anywhere else on the web!!!!
This was helpful for me, thanks. I know where to download free ringtones for phones.

Cant change Notification Tone sound in Whatsapp

I want to do a simple thing - change the notification tone in Whatsapp to be different than the system default tone.
I go to Whatsapp settings and tap the notification tone, I select 'audio files' to view system tones but I get an empty list.
Im with Miui 10.2.3 official global version and all Whatapp permissions are enabled.
It is really frustrating as I see no documentation for this anywhere and saw no one that complains about it but me. Found no similar thread anywhere.
Any thoughts?
You can complete the action using File Manager and select whatever the Audio File you want.
I'm not sure but one of these extensions should work .Mp3 .M4a .Ogg

Using File Manager didnt work.
Found out the solution is completing the action using 'Themes'. As weird as it sounds....
Thanks anyway
How did you change the notification sound using 'Themes'? I'd really appreciate you taking me though this, it's been driving me crazy for ages!

You go to Whatsapp Settings > Notifications > Hit 'Notification Tone' (either under Messages or Groups section) > Select 'Themes' when asked to 'Complete The Action Using'.
Let me know if that helped you or not
I had the same issue and it has nothing to do with updating to latest MIUI version. If you have already updated all your system apps, then just uninstall updates of the "Themes" app and the issue will be solved. Apparently the issue is caused by the new update of "themes" app.

As I mentioned above - Themes was the solution, not the problem I mean, I didnt realize at first that the notification tones are accessible via Themes.
