Shut down sound?

It's there a way to remove the annoying shutdown/start up sound without putting the phone in silent?

Sgs tools in the market will remove the startup and shutdown tones. You can also put your phone in silent and it will mute those sounds.

princedwi,
Have you used SGS Tools to Upgrade Stock Apps on the Galaxy 4G? Have you applied any other hacks besides the shutdown tones?
Thanks!

Ive used in upgrade stock apps the stock market, and it forced my old market to update to the new one =) I also used the gps fix and the secret codes.

Root your phone and download "SGS Tools" from the market. It has an option to either disable bootup/shutdown sounds or just disable them entirely.

Cool, I just used the camera and gallery mod. Cool app. If it would all me to change my lock screen would be super cool!

I know this is a really old post. I originally used SGS Tools to disable the sound. Recently, I upgraded to Gingerbread and the sounds are back. SGS Tools does not seem to be available anymore. At least I couldn't find it. Anyway, the actual files are /system/etc/PowerOn.wav and /system/media/audio/ui/PowerOff.wav. I just mounted the folders R/W and renamed the files and rebooted. (Root Explorer) Works like a charm. I suppose you can delete them as well. Enjoy the silence.

Custom Roms usually remove the sounds and are much better, try Valhalla.

Um, are you sure?

Yes I checked in the system/app folder and it wasn't there. When I put it into the car dock I get an icon to disconnect from the dock but it never loads.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk

Ok I got the apk and pushed it with adb. Now the big question is it possible to modify the apk so it opens Google navigate instead of vznavigator. Please someone tell me there is hope.lol

Why not try Car Home from the Market. I have it on my phone and very happy with it. much better than Google or Samsung dock.

Its very customizable add whatever apps you want.
Also you can use setting profiles from the market and make it load and close when you put it in or take it out of the dock.
Works slick!

is it just me? I am unable to find car home on the market (on the phone) - and when I go to the market, I can't push it to the phone. how are you guys downloading it?

Running it on stock rooted spring sgt and its great. Install silky smooth. No complaints, well except that it requires root.

I tried to install it this way and it went like a breeze on my i9003. However, only the rear camera works. By the way, where are the options to switch to front camera?

What Rom is compatible with car dock?

I recently bought the oem Samsung infuse car dock. The dock is suppose to automatically switch the phone into car mode once the app is downloaded. Well it doesn't do this. I am currently rooted on stock Rom 2.3.5. I understand this function is built into the stock Rom for the skyrocket and may be built into a different build. What I am looking for is automatic switching to car mode once inserted into dock and audio out via the charging port. I know there is a Rom out there that supports the car dock. And I'm ready to flash it. Does anyone have any idea of a Rom that supports the car dock functions?

I am curious too, what is he reporting and who is he reporting to? Is he some kind of a mole for the fbi or the cia?
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda premium

He thinks he's a mod, just look at all his post. They are all 1 word post. What's the word you say, reported. He's reporting to either prbassplayer or kennethpen. As for mole, yes, he's got nothing better to do than just come on here and post 1 word responses.
I don't see how this is in violation of anything. He's asking a question in the Q & A section. As for searching there's nothing on here that answers this question. The other theads talk about using apks.
Now to answer this question, have not seen a rom with a built in features, the rom I'm on came with Robin from the play store.

That thread talks about apks hes asking for roms that have the built in feature. Once again you jump on people instead of reading and understanding what's being said or asked.

What app did you download?
Its not necessarily a "ROM" that makes the car dock "work" . Yes there is an option to set audio out in the dock settings for samsung stock roms(though it has yet to be functional). I use the dock in conjunction with google car home(when i insert the phone into the dock it automatically sets it in car mode and you can customize what apps you want on it), one of the threads has info on it so search my friend.
Entropy512(Elite Recognized Developer for Infuse 4g) provides some insight into the dock
Entropy512 said:
In the case of Infuse and other devices which have proper dock support, the dock is specifically detected by the device based on the value of the resistor between the ID pin and ground. The state of USB pins 2 and 3 don't matter as these aren't even routed to the device - those pins get routed by the dock to the audio output jack, and the device routes audio to those pins when the ID resistor indicates a dock is present.
In this case the Skyrocket appears not to be handling dock presence at all.

If you download the MajickXperian Rom it will automatically open an app when a certain device is connected so I would guess that it will work perfectly. It opens Play Music everytime I plug in my headphones without a hitch.

PonGo brings Sprint Surrond Sound Mod

Well, someone posted the surround sound mod in themes. It was nice but not perfect. It actually didn't allow fmradio to work and only allowed sound through headphones on wifi calling. So, I fixed it so that it now works properly. HUGE THANKS to @sshafranko for the original mod. Without much fanfare here is the

Can you pass along the zip please

Got it to work. Thanks man. By the way, you have a typo on your topic.

I just got a Note 4 and still debating on keeping it due to its size (coming from a 2013 Moto X) so I haven't rooted yet. This is something I plan to do if I keep it, though.
Any danger of it blowing the front earpiece?

Just rooted and getting everything set up how I would like it. Getting ready to apply this mod, but had another (probably dumb) question: it can be reverted to normal by just replacing the stock mixer_paths.xml, right?
Edit: this is a really great mod! Helps alot when watching videos to get some sound actually coming straight at you.
