I'm looking to replace the current system "pop" sound when selecting apps or menus with a "click" sound....the only problem is that I can't find the location of the "pop" ui sound on the phone in order to replace it. I've searched through the directories and can find every sound but the one I want to change.
Thanks for the help.

funny you should ask because I'm looking to stop that annoying 'click' as you browse the menus and such. I disabled the 'audible selection' which works but thats a different sound.
ideas?
I found the sound to replace...its in system/media/ui ...it's named TW_Touch.ogg ......I just deleted it(after backing it up first) then moved the new click sound to that folder...renamed the sound TW_Touch.ogg ..Turn off selection sounds in settings then turn them on again...now I have a new less annoying sound...still too loud though...even at the lowest volume setting.

Is there a way to disable the camera shutter sound on CM7 without the obvious ( turning the phone on silent)? I can't find a setting like in the sense camera app
You can use your favorite file management app (make sure to mount /system as R/W) or adb to delete or rename the following file:
/system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg

using Root Explorer, in R/W mode, i can delete camera_click.ogg (or rename it), but it just comes right back. thoughts?
Use Tasker and have it turn off system sounds when camera app is open. Works wonders for me.
Also Tasker is perfect for turning my ringer down during work hours, putting phone on Airplane mode in the middle of the night (i average 1-3% battery drop over 8 hours of sleep) and disabling the lockscreen while plugged into power. It's a great program and worth the few bucks.
use root explorer and copy camera_click.ogg and then use ringdroid or another audio adjustment app to shorten the track to almost nothing or make it a silent audio track and drop it back in the right system folder. worked for me.
ringdroid doesn't support .oog filetypes as of yet. I like the idea though...
Any 1 know of an editor that does?
now that I seen this thread the camera sound gets on my nerves
Swyped from a galaxy far far away......
With your phone or computer, make a one second or so silent audio file in either wav or mp3. Look at the properties of the camera_click.ogg to find out what bitrate and sample rate it is. Find a free audio converter program that can go to ogg. Set the encoding parameters to similar of the original ogg file. Rename the original ogg to something else and name the new file exactly the same as the original file. It works, I've done it many times before.
I've also had crashes in the program like camera or camcorder if the sound file is missing.

I just used Root Explorer to rename the file:
/system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg
to
/system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg.old
Works fine. Although that just silences the actual shutter sound, the phone still makes the beeps after done auto-focusing. Any ideas on that?
Tasker is an awesome tool.

I'd be looking for that also, exactly how to disable/rename whatever sound is responsible for that beep when focusing.
I miss the simple ability to disable sounds from the sense camera... also the ability to touch focus too
Remove camera click

You can replace the file /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg with the camera_click.ogg file that I placed inside of the attached zip. This works for CM7.
Wrong thread this belongs in the Q&A forum .
Bumping this up for any information on how to disable or quiet the auto-focus beeps. I read something that hinted that the beeps aren't a sound file but a function call to the tone generator? Is there a modified version of the camera APK for CM7 with this removed?
Regarding the shutter sound, what I do is rename camera_click.ogg to .bak and then copy effect_tick.ogg to camera_click.ogg. This gives a nice quiet but audible feedback that the picture has taken without being too loud. But the focus sound still distracts or wakes the baby...

This will remove all camera sounds from cm7. Flash in recovery

Hey thanks, I'll try that out. Is there any way to disable only the focus sound but allow the shutter sound? If this simply rewrites the camera_click.ogg I can replace it again afterwards - if the APK is modified to not even call it though, is there any instruction on grafting that back in?

Im also looking for this fix. I have the Korean Model phone, and the local.prop option does not work;
Perverts...
I have the EC10 Pick and Pack Rom with the latest Voodoo Kernel on my Samsung Mesmerize. Decided to try and customize things a little and I'm stuck on a problem I'm not sure what to do.
I fell in love with the TTS voice Voodoo does when it configures the system partition. Sounded robotic and I thought I would start changing some sounds. Found the path for changing sounds in system/media/audio/ui through some other threads and it's simple enough to swap the Lock.ogg and TW_Unlock_Puzzle.ogg file to whatever I wanted.
The only issue is, the lock sound comes out nice and clear, but the unlock sound is very very quiet. I had to change the volume of the sound file in my sound editing software as much as 400% just to make it near what the lock sound is. I would be happy if I could get them to sound out at about the same level but this isn't the case.
I'm using http://www.mainepcsales.com/temp/Locked.ogg and http://www.mainepcsales.com/temp/Unlocked.ogg as files. You can see I cranked up the volume on the Unlocked.ogg file so it's obviously louder but if I go any louder it will come out with a lot of static.
Does anyone know what causes this behavior? As far as sound options they are all cranked up. Maybe I'm missing something... if you could point me in the right direction if this is the wrong place to post about this I would greatly appreciate it.
The Lock.ogg and Unlock.ogg are the files I assumed I had to replace to change the Lock/Unlock sounds but it seemed like the Unlock.ogg was incorrect. It was instead TW_Unlock_Puzzle.ogg that I had to replace with my custom sound to have it changed.
This leads me to believe that the TouchWiz launcher is configured to have a softer Unlock sound versus the Lock sound. I don't know more about Android OS to configure it and I don't even know if it's possible to change the volume of a sound in the TouchWiz application.
Does anyone know if it's possible to link the ringtone volume level with the notification volume level? I remember it being possible to do this on my Captivate when you went into Settings > Sound and clicked on Volume, there was a checkbox at the bottom of the pop-up menu to link them. I'm not sure if that was just because of the ROM I had on it, or if it was also stock Froyo. I liked it because I could quickly lower my text message notification volume right from the volume rocker, as it would then control both the ringtone and the notification level. But now it only lowers my ringtone volume. So is this at all possible to do? And if not, is it something that a dev could possibly work into a ROM?
You could use the app called audio manager that does it.

Thanks for the tip. Just downloaded it and it does, in fact, allow the volume rocker to adjust both my ringtone and text message volume at the same time. So I will definitely be using this for now; although, I really don't need all the other features. I wish I didn't have to download an entire app to accomplish this small task. I feel like I'm always having to do that haha. I just wish it was easy enough to include these small little individual preferences right into the system, framework, etc. by yourself. I also feel like that was a great little feature and I wonder why they would've done away with it in GB. Ohh well, thank you though!
I can't get rid of the charging sound even with GravityBox. If I rename/delete/replace the original files in the system folder, it starts playing my selected ringtone (even no sound which would fix the problem except I can't hear the phone ring).
You could record a silent audio file and replace the charging sound with the silent audio clip

As I said, when I use anything apart from the original ogg file (including a silent ogg file), it plays the ringtone that has been set. It's almost like the sound is signed or something

There may possibly be a mod somewhere that lets us do it that is xperia spesific.

I thought I'd solved it with permissions, but I was wrong.
It was a coincidence that I'd set either the ringtone or notification tone as silent.
The stand-in charging sound will be whatever you most recently set in ringtone or notification tone.
To get around this, I've set GravityBox up with ultimate notification control to default to what I want and custom for each app that is silent or uses a different tone.
I then set the notification tone as silent in the settings app, but this won't change anything since GravityBox overrides
