On older versions of android, the default system notification sound files (.ogg format) were stored in the root directory under /system/media/audio/notifications/ but in Android 10 (oxygen OS on Oneplus 8 Pro) it looks like under /system/media/ the folders and files are no longer there. Have they been moved?
please post in the proper sections . questions go to q/a i have moved your post there for you

WHY
I believe all of us here like the android that we can do what ever we want with our device,
I personally dislike some of the sound I hear when my device power on and when I unlock the
screen and when I touch and select Menus and item within android.And also the power up sound
HACKING
Please kindly do a backup in case things go bad for you.
Using the APP Root browser (lite from the google play) or any file editing App that has root access you can
change the UI sound that you hear on any android powered device.
For instance i have tried most of the ROMs in the forums.I just download a Custom ICS,JB ROM
And then navigate to the system file in the zip file on my computer and then to media and copy the
files overthere to my device.
LET GET STARTED
1.Connect your device your computer or laptop and turn on USB connection
2.ROM zip file >>>> system >>>> media >>> audio{alarms,notifications,ringtones,ui}
3.create a folder in the storage (system sd card or external sd card) to copy the files from the
Android ROM you downloaded
4.copy the files from the audio folder into the folder you created
5.Run Root browser and navigate to folder you created and open it and multi select each
of the sound files (.ogg).(it does not work selecting the whole folder you will get an error)
navigate back and go to system folder
System >>>>media>>>>>audio and open and paste the files from the previous respective folder you
copied from earlier.( YOU MIGHT HAVE DUPLICATES THE ONLY WAY TO DETECT SUCH IS THE DATE )
6. Now with the UI sounds there is three of them 1.the unlock sound, 2.the lock sound,
3.the screen selection sound. this files are easy to identify for instance most of them are
labelled as such eg. lock.ogg for phone lock, unlock.ogg for screen password unlock sound and
mostly for Samsung it is TW_Touch.ogg for the screen touch selection.
7. You can repeat all the steps for the other audio files. once done you can select and play
the sound within the root browser. you can also copy sounds from notification and ringtones
and use it for any of the UI sounds and vice versa. These also increase the amount of sound
on your device.
8 .If any of the sounds interest you and want to change your UI sound, all you have to do is exactly rename
the original UI sound eg.1TW_Touch.ogg which was the original and then the sound that interest
you for the touch selection to be TW_Touch.ogg and reboot your Device.
9. Same goes with the power sound(powerom.wav) which is located in different folders on
some ROMS within the system folder. (personal i deleted the power on sound I dont like it)
On the current CM10 ROM the only hackable is user interface sound (Effect_tick.oog) is the touch sound. Which is located
System > media>ui

After hours of decompiling and things alike, I finally managed to extract the Oppo Colour OS 2.1.x files from the .dat file. But Once I extracted the folders and other things. I come to the launcher folder which has 3 things in the root of the Oppolauncher folder. A folder names "arm", another folder named "lib", and the launcher apk file itself. I know by past experience (Haven't tested myself.) That the apk needs those two folders. (theres also a folder names "oppolaunchersystem" with an arm folder and "oppolaunchersystem.apk.") In order to port these apk files for use with Lollipop devices (Colour OS 2.1.x I believe is lollipop.) Do I have to implement the lib and arm folders (maybe the launchersystem apk)? And if so, how? Thanks for anyone willing to help me with creating the system dump.
I attached the two folders in a Zip file for anyone who wants to examine it.
Sorry for my bad English if I made any errors.
{EDIT} I tried installing OppoLauncher.apk through ADB and I got back [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT] and with OppoLauncherSystem.apk I got back [INSTALL_FAILED_SHARED_USER_INCOMPATIBLE]. So it seems that OppoLauncher will work on the device I tested it on (Droid Ultra on 4.4.4) but It needs some sort of resource within the Colour OS 2.1 .x ROM.
I'm in search of the Launcher3 folder located on the internal sd card of this phone would someone be so kind as to zip it and upload it for me please it contains wallpapers and I deleted it thank you
Update
No need found it.
Mods please delete.
Setting a reminder for when I get home. What is the file location?
Hello,
I have a Asus ROG Phone 3 and have a few questions.
Anytime I reboot my phone and go to check my internal storage, Android is automatically creating the following folders ASUS, Movies, Music, TwinApps, and Subtitles folder.
I assume this is just the default Behavior but does anyone know of a way to disable that or just to keep those folders deleted forever?
My phone is rooted, and I'm tech savvy as hell but I can't figure it out.
Anyone have a clue if the service/app that is remaking these folders is Android itself or somerhing from Asus?
I also recently switched to Android 12 and I noticed something strange, anytime I try to edit or access /sdcard/Android/OBB folder I can't edit anything in it, I can't copy or paste anything into that folder if I can even view it.
Mind you this is with root and using a file manager I've been using for years that I know works. Did something change in the background of A12?
Lastly does anyone know if there is a way to change the default save location for screenshots and/or DCIM camera folder?
Thanks

1) most of the folders are created by android Media scanner but at least one is Asus specific. in theory any app can create own folders, if allowed in permissions.
2) you need file explorer that is updated to support scoped storage so it can view media files from other apps, for example SD Maid.
3) in camera app itself one can switch storage location to MicroSD card. not sure about screenshots, though.
Upon doing some research I was under the impression the password.key file would be located in /data/system or even in one of the /data/system/users/<user> folder but the file is not present.
In addition the /data/data/com.android.providers.settings had no folder called databases which would store the settings.db file.
I did find /data/system/locksettings.db so that is a positive.
Any suggestions?

Hi @ThePieMonster,
we have moved your post to the Q&A forum as it didn't qualify for Android Software/Hacking. Prior to your next posting kindly read the sticky on top of every forum.
Note: Questions go in Q&A Forum
Regarding your question,
the synthetic password is stored in /data/system_de/<user>/spblob/<handle>.spblob
settings are stored as XML files in /data/system/users/<user>/settings_*.xml
generally spoken, if you can't find app data in /data/user/<user>/<pkgname> you should always have a look in /data/user_de/<user>/<pkgname> first.
