Disable Battery Full / Disconnect Sound? - Captivate General

Is there a way to disable the "battery charged" or "battery full / unplug cable" sound? it wakes me up in the middle of the night, and i have to switch to vibrate now every night.

There is a way.
You need a rooted phone, root explorer. Get the file at
/system/media/audio/ui/
The filename is TW_Battery_caution.ogg.
Edit the file, eliminate the sound, replace the file on the phone, reboot.
No more annoying warning tone.

daverup thank you! The last two nights ive woken up to a middle of the night text that turned out to be my phone just letting me know its charged... wtf?

This is the first time I've used Root Exploter. I was able to copy the file to my SD card, and edit it to make it silent, but when I try and copy it or move it back, it just does nothing - I get no error message, and the file does not appear.
Will the missing file cause a problem when the phone fully charges?

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
needed to mount /system in rw

May be a stupid question... How do you edit this file to make it silent?

yes please a little more dumbed down step by step for us noobs out here.

Or if you jump (flash) to the leaked Froyo J16, you won't have to worry about that noise either. It drove me nuts and I was so glad to see that they changed that with the new Froyo release.

Can any one help with this? same file to edit on Froyo?
it still happens to me on Froyo, the official one.
I keep it on virbrate, and it still vibrates when charged which sometimes will wake me up.
At this point i might go to a custom rom just to disable this, but have the phone rooted, if someone can give instructions on how to disable the vibrate/sound/notification all together.

Stay Awake for Charge

Here is a .zip file that I put together from the Fascinate Stay Awake zip.
I installed it on my phone and it seems to be working pretty good.
This is my first file that I've tried to share so if there are any problems getting it pm me.
1. Download .zip file to sd card
2. reboot phone into recovery. (if your not running CWM this won't work)
3. select "install .zip from sd card.
4. select .zip file
5. select install .zip file.
6. press volume up and down at the same time to enable "go back" button on cwm menu.
7. go back
8. restart phone
This option will be in the settings menu under applications/development
Running I510 with jt's CWM recovery / voodoo lagfix and imnuts ED2 debloated rom
Install .zip at your own risk.
THIS IS A FASCINATE FILE THIS MAY OR MAY NOT WORK.
IT APPEARS THIS IS CAUSING SOME FORCE CLOSES WITHIN THE SYSTEM SETTINGS....DUE TO THE FACT IT WAS DESIGNED FOR THE FASCINATE.

When you say "installed it on my phone," would that phone be a Charge (or a Fascinate)? Will give this a try in a bit.

From your home screen touch the top as if you are going to pull down the notification screen down. When you see the notification screen come down off the top, slide your finger left to dim and right to brighten.

I was quite annoyed by the fact you couldn't stay awake when plugged in. I looked through the Charge settings in the ee4_deodexed system files and it looks like it should be available under settings>applications>development, but it doesn't actually show up. I was comparing it to the stay awake zip you put up and I haven't yet been able to figure out where the changes were made to make it work. I did, however, in my search find "stay awake widget" on the market which lets you choose if you want to stay awake when attached to USB or AC, and it works perfectly! So I guess all my frustration with it had a very simple fix haha

Anyway to remove the stock 'startup' sound and images?

When you are starting up the Droid Charge, it does it's animated thing and makes the 'droid sound'.. this is very annoying when you are in a quiet place and need to reboot your phone... anyway to disable this startup noises?
also, when the phone is charging and hits 100% charge, there is a notification sound... this often goes off in the middle of the night while sleeping and I have keep the phone plugged in overnight... so this 100% charge notification often wakes me up.. anyway to disable this sound?

If your phone is on silent, the animation will still play, but without sound. If you don't want to put your phone into silent to reboot, the other option is to remove the files /system/etc/PowerOn.wav and /system/etc/PowerOn.snd (although I think only the .wav plays)

This can be fixed then so you don't get the sound or popup notification
how do you fix the fully charged sound?
my phone will NOT let me edit, delete or rename those sound files... so how do you just delete them like you say?

You have to edit a few of the framework files. I know it can be done because the Fascinate has the same thing. We just need to find the appropriate edit(s) and implement them.

if you dont want to use a terminal...then root explorer (like $5 in market) is an invaluable tool for root users...that and titanium backup are must buys imo
but i think there are other free su ones too, just dont know them off hand

and for titanium backup.. what does that allow you to backup/restore?

Event Log?

Okay, sometime last night my phone vibrated & made a sound that woke up my wife. She asked this morning what it was but I can't for the life of me figure out what happened. Is there an Event Log app I can download to see if something happened in the middle of the night? She says it sounded like an incoming text but I had none when I woke up. Any ideas?

Was you phone charging? Mine once it hits 100% it beeps and wakes me up sometimes.
he's right fully charged notification. I believe you can shut it off, but I can't find it in the settings. This has woke me up several times.
Sometimes I wish I could wake up as easily to as quiet and very short noise as some of the people that post on here! Then again, I'd probably never fall alseep in NYC.

It can't be shut off without framework changes, but it follows your notification volume.
The event log that your phone keeps is accessed by using logcat.
Code:
adb logcat -d > logcat.txt
There was a dialer code that brought up the option to disable it but I am unsure if it works. It's the same code to disable the lock screen and power off options menu, try searching for that. You could also try using root uninstall to remove or freeze the full battery popup apk (FullBatPopupApp). I have not, however, tried that and can't be held responsible if your phone explodes.

I believe the dialer code for the lock screen will disable the full battery notification. I used the code a few weeks ago to disable to lock screen and I haven't had the notification since. Unless someone beats me to it I will try and find it for you in a bit.

Hello, Sir.
I'm a long time lurker and not the first time poster. Known to troll occasionally.
Does this tool kit work for backing up ICS ROMs?
That's a fair question...there was one ICS tester who provided some valuable feedback and then fled the country.. (or the 50 states anyway)
I believe the ROM backup/restore will work as long as /system, /data, and /dbdata are the only places where ROM information resides.
The toolkit will not backup kernels or modems, but those are easily obtained and flashed from other sources...

not sure what you are asking...this is a zip file you run like installing a ROM
"It's a way to do many useful things in CWM recovery mode via a Touch-Enabled interface,"
>it is a tool used in CWM not within the ROM...
>if you go thru the program has a few questions or prompts to ensure you want to do what you are clicking...
>once you wipe and reload...and boot out of the program and cwm the program closes....does not del the program...it resides on your sd as a zip file like a ROM file until you go back into CWM to exe it again...
>the tool is not visible in the ROM...
make sense...?

Best way to figure out what the toolkit does is to run it from CWM and try it out. Make sure you run a config backup and a full Rom backup first thing. That way you can undo any changes you make. In the tweaks section there are also undo options for any init.d or build.prop tweaks you add.
If something seems unfamiliar (i.e. "what the heck is init.d?"), Google is your best friend.

The aroma tool kit resides on your internal sdcard, where you would place your downloaded program..just like the ROM or a cwm flashable. Flashing a ROM only wipe the system drive, not the 14gb internal drive where we usually store or flashable zips. Deleting it is simple: locate it and delete it. Every time you use it, you need to flash it in cwm.

Now I have a very serious question for the Tool Kit.
When I put my phone on vibrate, it does nothing for me. I even tried clipping the phone to the front of my pants. Nope, nothing, didn't feel a thing.
Is there any way of increasing the intensity of the vibration so that I can at least feel the vibration and have it do something for me?

Check the following first:
1. Go to settings-->sound, enable haptic feedback, change vibration intensity (one below), then turn off haptic feedback.
2. From same sound menu, check your vibrate setting - set to always or only in silent mode. If the latter then use the down volume button to move sound all the way to zero. When it reaches zero, your phone should vibrate.
If you don't feel a vibrate from this you may have a busted vibrator (Joe? Any suggestions here? )
Check the notify bar to see if your sound icon shows as silent with a vibration indicator (usually a squiggly line - but this may vary by ROM).
This app appears to allow some customization of vibration based on specific contacts for SMS and perhaps inbound calls: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.base2apps.vibes&hl=en
Other than that, there may be a kernel option to change vibrate intensity. If the above don't work for you, and you do still get some level of vibrate, I'll look into it when I'm working on my next kernel update.

Can we know more abt. the emergency uclb3 packaged with this toolkit?
Is it rooted, zipaligned, deodexed, debloated, with lidroid toogles etc?
The UCLB3 ROM included here is derived from Dman's rooted, deodexed, zipaligned base. I've updated superuser, and debloated all the crap out of it, plus a bunch of other apps that would be included in a typical rom but removed here in the interest of conserving space while staying true to the intent... something to flash in the event of an emergency - i.e. no roms on sdcard, or for devs and testers, something to flash as a "control" to compare against... i.e. flash this, apply your change to see if it causes the same behavior as on your own rom...

[Q] NFC Options are Disabled?

Hi everyone...
I was at the gas station last night, and thought I'd try using NFC/Google Wallet to try paying for something for the first time.
I went in to turn on NFC, and found that the option is completely grayed out. (The button is set to "on", but its grayed out, and cannot be turned off)
Android Beam is disabled/grayed out.
S Beam is enabled, but I can't seem to change it.
Tap and Pay is disabled, and says, "NFC is turned off".
Something is clearly FUBAR'd here.
I've tried rebooting a couple times.
I've tried pulling the battery (yes, its the original OEM battery).
I've tried wiping data for NFC.
I tried re-installing the stock ROM, and it didn't fix anything.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks..
Just a follow up here... I've also tried a complete wipe of the device... still no go.

Yes.
And when I did a complete wipe and re-install, I was able to verify that its happening with the stock kernel also, so I don't believe it to be a kernel issue.
I was able to try a different battery today... from someone else with an S5, and the same problem exists.
My next step is to try unrooting and going back to complete stock... obviously I'd like to avoid this if at all possible.
Any other suggestions? Anyone?
Well, I did it today.. unrooted, went back to full stock everything... and I still cant change the NFC setting on my S5.
If anyone has any other suggestions, I'm more than open to anything at this point...

No, but I may get it for this. What a bummer.
Could someone be so kind as to post a copy of their /data/data/com.android.nfc/shared_prefs/SamsungNfcPrefs.xml file for me?
Also, can you tell me if you have an nxpdevicehost.xml file in that same directory?
Thanks!
Here are the latest details. I feel like I'm so close, yet so far.
Background:
When I would reboot my S5, the NFC setting would be set to "On", but disabled and wouldn't let me change it. On top of that, my phone would never go into Deep Sleep. After exhaustive research, it appears that the phone was constantly trying to enable NFC, which prevented it from hitting Deep Sleep.
I've dug thru a lot of the AOSP code, and discovered the following.
- If I change the nfc_on tag from true to false in my NfcServicePrefs.xml, and add a line setting first_boot = false, NFC does not try to turn on when I reboot the next time (This solves my deep sleep problem).
- If I try to manually turn NFC on after that, it gets stuck the same as before I made any changes to the XML file.
- Based on this code, it looks like there is a java call to "mDeviceHost.initialize()". I'm guessing this is where I'm getting borked.
- The initalize function, found here, seems to want a file called NxpDeviceHost.XML. I cannot find this file anyplace on my S5.
My assumption here is that Samsung forked this process and made their own internal changes. I'm looking at AOSP code, but that doesn't help if Samsung changed things on their end.
Can ANYONE help me debug things from here? I'm a developer by trade, but have never worked in JAVA (although I've figured out how to read enough of it to become dangerous). I dont need a lot of hand-holding... just a push in the right direction here.
Thanks!

Actually contents of both XML files in the /data/data/com.android.nfc/shared_prefs would be appreciated.

Here ya go. Attached is a zip with everything that was in the shared-prefs folder
I have the same issue on an LG-e970. The NFC option is checked and grayed out, I can't change it. It's always been this way since I got the phone. The new problem in the past 48 hours is some OTA update is causing Nfc Service to prevent the phone from sleeping, but I have no idea what it is. I thought maybe Google Wallet so I uninstalled it, but the problem remains. It happened well after the Android 4.4.4 Cm11-M8 update for this phone. I filed a bug at code google dot com bug ID 74037, which this silly forum won't let me post because I'm too new and it doesn't understand the difference between a google code URL and spam.
Weird. So I powered off the phone, let it charge to 100%, booted in safe mode, Settings > Storage > Cache and reset it, rebooted in normal mode, and let the phone sit unused for 1 hour. The problem with Nfc Service is not occurring, the phone is sleeping most of the time now. When I go to Settings > More > NFC is unchecked, not grayed out. Inexplicable, because I've had no way to uncheck it.
So I just checked it, and it immediately grays out so I can't uncheck it again. I'm leaving the phone unused for another hour and see where things are at.

Nfc Service is once again the top battery consumer and won't let the system sleep. The bugreport for the state with the problem (in contrast to the report for the state without the problem):
many instances of:
07-24 11:23:16.870 1064 8319 E NFCJNI : emergency_recovery: NFC stack dead-locked
and also
Wake lock 1027 NfcService:mRoutingWakeLock: 1h 6m 26s 537ms (0 times) realtime
Wake lock NfcService:mRoutingWakeLock: 1h 6m 26s 537ms partial (0 times) realtime
Wake Locks: size=1
PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK 'NfcService:mRoutingWakeLock' (uid=1027, pid=1064, ws=null)
I've booted recovery, formatted /cache and erased Dalvik cache, see where that goes... obviously if I can figure out how to disable the NFC option again, that solves the no sleep problem.
had same issue but with note 3. It was kernel issue so reverted to the previous kernel i was on and its o
Sorry to bring this thread back to life, but I'm having the same issue and would like to know which solution worked out for you. Thanks.
