Remove clicking sounds

wm2005 is really a big step forward. However, I have a big problem with the clicking sounds when you choose a menu or an application. I wanted to remove those 2 sounds, but that's impossible since these are in Rom.
I can't find anything how to remove this hoorible clicks. I hope that someone has a suggestion.
thx

Why don't you just uncheck sounds fo "Events (warnings, system events) from the Sounds and Notifications in the Personal Settings?

I'm wondering if it's possible to change that clicking sound to another sound of my choice . . . Can any of the Tech Guru's Please Help ?

There is a way, you would have to search your device for the original sounds, back them up and override them with your own.

as long as you know the name of the sound you want to change; it's possible. for me, i changed the normal beep sound when the "G" icon comes up after a soft reset (GPRS). the name of that sound is "default". what i did was took a wav file i wanted to use, from my laptop i renamed it to "default", copied and pasted it to the windows folder of my unit. there will be a menu pop-up question saying something like "the file "default" already exists, do you want to replace it?" click ok and there you go; the default sound is different. the other built in sounds can be seen when you go to your sounds and notifications folder. example; the activesync sound can be changed by choosing from the drop down menu. these are the built in sounds; you can change the actual wav file by putting in a sound with the same name (like the one i did for the default sound). i think what you can't do is change the name of the built in sound...
hope that helps.

Yes , thank-you guys it works Gr8 . Only thing is that you need to use another file explorer like Resco etc etc if you want to replace the system sound cuz the built in Explorer won't allow it .

Keyboard Slide Sound

hello,
is it possible to add costum keyboard sliding sounds?

Settings -> Sounds -> Keyboard Sliding

but i want some more costum sounds

Custom Sliding Sounds
I would like to know if it is possible to change the sliding sounds on the Vox (wife's phone) as on a PocketPC. I have a T-mobile wing and have this down for my phone. If I try to overwrite the current sounds I get a access denied error and I tried to look for the registry keys but they are not in the same location as on a PocketPC. A nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.
On a side note, is there a Network Wizard for the smartphone? All I can find on here are the versions for the PocketPC.
Thanks in advance.

Custom Sliding Sounds
After some searching I finally found a solution.
http://www.htcwiki.com/page/HTC+S720+(LIBRA)+Sliding+sound+tweak?t=anon
This is for the S720, but I did this on the Vox with no problems.
-------------------------------------------------
First you will require your new custom sound files.
16 Bit 44Khz stereo PCM wave works nicely (this is the format that windows used for it's existing files)
You will need three files total:
4.wav - the "sample" sound. Duplicate either in or out file
4_in.wav - The keyboard slide in sound
4_out.wav - The keyboard slide out sound
Next copy them to your windows directory on your phone.
Then you will require a Registry editor (Ghisler Total Commander for example)
And navigate to HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\
There are three keys here you have to change.
SlidingSound - Change the value of sound to 4.wav
SlidingOut - Change the value of sound to 4_out.wav
SlidingIn - Change the value of sound to 4_in.wav
And presto, your phone should now be using your custom sound files instead of the boring windows ones.
- Keep in mind: If you visit your sound settings in windows to change anything (such as default ring tone or alarm/reminder sounds) as soon as you hit done, windows will reset it to whatever sliding sound was previously listed, you'll have to go back and re-edit them on your own but it's the small price to pay for custom ring tones.
-----------------------------------------------------
I now have something besides the standard sliding sounds.

Lock sounds

I have been able to customize every sound for my phone except the sound when my phone locks or unlock. Has anyone found the file that needs to be modified in order to change that? I have tried to use many of the lockscreen replacement apps, but none habe satisfied what I'm looking for. TIA.

replace the unlock.ogg with whatever .ogg file you want to use inside the system/media/audio/ui folder. I used my droid.ogg for each time i unlocked the screen, but make sure its the same file name as the one your replacing or it won't work.
edit: I uploaded the droid.ogg file, just rename it to Unlock.ogg before you paste it into the system/media/audio/ui folder.
Hope this helps
be sure to unzip it first lol

I have tried to change these files with no success. What exactly is a .ogg file? Will any media file work if I change the extension to .ogg? ie: .mp3 to .ogg? Thanks

you need to convert not rename the audio files to .ogg for the phone to play specific unlock/lock sounds.
I have mine set to Ep2 Lightsaber open/close

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the .ogg file is inside the .zip i attached, i just can't attach it as an actual file since XDA doesn't allow that format unless its zipped
rename droid.ogg to unlock.ogg
i've done this many times before with all the ROMs i've used and it works as long as its a Froyo rom since it was added in 2.2 for the Incredible.
.ogg is a format thats open source, playable on WinAMP, VLC, and GOM player.
if you need to convert a file that you don't have in .ogg format, use this link to upload it and convert it online.
http://media.io/
it will ask you to browse for the file you want converted, then it will ask you what format you want to convert it to
Hope that helps, if so, please click "Thanks"

I know I posted this in the other lock sounds thread, but I thought I would post it here to for those that may be watching this thread for an answer.
SUCCESS! I was actually able to use a different site using my phone. http://www.online-convert.com/
I then used root explorer to rename and copy the file into the correct system folder. Works great now. My only complaint is that it seems I can't control the volume of the lock/unlock sounds I chose using any of the volume settings. It's always on full blast unless I set to silent or vibrate. Any ideas? Thanks.

I dont think you can adjust the volume of the unlock UI notification within of the basic controls of the volume (RT/Media/Alarm). Only thing i can think of is editing the sound file to a lower volume you can use most audio editors/mixers to do that. Then convert/overwrite
2cents

SUCCESS AGAIN!! I did some research and found out you can change the system volume, which controls the lock sounds, via an app called Audio Manager. I just used the free widget version and lowered my system volume by one or two. Works great. I don't personally use the widget portion of the app. Thanks for everyone's help on this. Hope my trials help someone else find the answers they need.

[APP] Samsung Keyboard Keypress Sounds For HTC IME

Hi all!!
I post here this folder contains the samsung keyboard keys sounds that you can use in your HTC IME instead of the default HTC sound ( I think that Samsung sound is better than HTC's one )!!
To apply them,put this folder into your sd card or into system folder; then open HTC IME settings, go to Sound&Vibration, check 'custom sounds' and copy the correct Samsung sounds addresses into the voices: 'Normal key','Space','Backspace', 'Enter'! (files estension .ogg). I dont' know why the 4 Samsung sounds are the same..no difference..so if you prefer have different sound during keyboard use..you can use a mix of this sounds and the HTC's ones.
I hope you enjoy your new keyboard sound!!

Hey man does this work only with HTC? I have a rooted i9300 running CM11 and I was wondering if I could use these sounds over the crappy KitKat key press sounds.
Thanks!

Thanksssssss, I was looking for a long time, but Just now I can change the keypress sound to my device. Because the keypress sound that I had it, did don't like for me . Thanks ?

Not working I placed in system/media/audio/ui

[Q] how do i change clicking sound?

Hi guys,
maybe for most of you the clicking sound "chick chick" isn't annoying but it's too loud and hurts my senses especially using ear phones...
I have a very cool clicking sound file from my old Samsung mobile... I would want to change default to that and lower it's volume...
Anyone know where is the wav file located for that clock sound in our Roms?

That mp3 located in system/media/audio/ui/

yeah thanks.. I figured it out already yesterday...

How is the selection done from the files within the directory? Do we replace the file with our own with the same filename? Because I changed from one rom (Omega 16.2) to another (Omega 9.2) and I saved in my pc the folder /system/media/audio/ui from both roms to compare them. Although both roms have (almost) the same files in the directory, the touch sound (which is the one I want to change) is different. So how do I choose which file the system uses for each operation?
EDIT: I am using Samsung Galaxy SII, I got here from a link from another thread. I will post this to the proper forum again, although the system is the same
