Low battery warnings - T-Mobile LG G2x

Anyway to change/disable them on the OTA 2.3 rom?
Drives me nuts that I need to get a 15% warning, then 3% warning, then 2% warning, then 1% warning, then very low battery warning.....

I just edited my SystemUI.apk and set the visibility to "gone" for the popups for battery full and battery low. I'm testing now...I"ll keep you posted.
The Battery Full picture didn't come up when it reached 100%, but a very simple toast popup came up saying, "Charging Complete." So that doesn't really solve that part of the problem. I'm trying to run my battery down now to see about the low side.

I thought about what I really want after I made my post. The pop-ups does not really bother me, but the notification sound. I just got rid of the Lowbattery.ogg sound file and should do the trick. Will know for sure tomorrow.

I ran my battery all the way down to 1%, and no popups came up. I didn't have my sound on, so I don't know if it would have made any sound.
But the combination of both deleting that ogg file, and editing the battery_low.xml's in systemui would get rid of it all.

I know you're already over this, but I"m updating what I find incase someone else wants to know.
Setting the visibility to "gone" for the battery_low.xml's not only disabled the popups, but also disabled the warning sound, without deleting the sound file. Apparently the warning sound must be triggered by the popup warning.
I didn't test if it makes a noise while on a call, though...because I just don't care enough.

I never noticed any sound from battery reminders.

So after getting rid of the sound file, I still get the sound just a different tone...
Not sure how to edit the systemui files. Is there another ogg file i need to get rid off? I would like to keep the pop up but the sound needs to go.
If not, the how did you make the visibility to "gone" for the low_battery xml?

"Ring" LED Flash every couple of seconds

well today on my fuze, ive been very mysterious about a flash that occurs on the Ring LED every couple of seconds, has anyone got this kind of experience before? i was just like messing around on Album on TF3D and it started it to flash like once every i should say 6 seconds?, idk but plz tell me how i can turn this off...thanks!
Most likely that means that your battery is low (below 10 or 5%)
I think you can turn it off by charging your battery
thnx alot man! well now i know what it is but umm when i charge it itll breathe for like a good 10 mins then the light will blink i think i found what would be the problem and its probably this registry cab file i downloaded to improve the battery life
http://www.isyougeekedup.com/cool-and-easy-touch-pro-fuze-feature-enhancing-registry-tweaks/
i uninstalled it and the problem went away, ill let u guys know in a little to see if this is still going on
As stated it's probably because of low battery if you don't have any unchecked events or are charging the device.
You should note that the different sistuations have different flashing style, that way you can tell them appart.
well first i dont have any events checked yet as of just an alarm that goes off at 6am, when i charge it, the breathing light will stop after 10 mins and then the blink will go off every second and the battery meter on the very top would show all bars BUT like i mentioned earlier i uninstalled a tweak and it supposely thats what caused it
I've seen it happen on mine just from having an email marked as unread in the inbox (even after dismissing the notification). Something to look out for. (Maybe had to do with the ROM at the time)

HOWTO: Disable wireless charging complete sound

As anyone who uses wireless charging with the S3 knows, it's a huge convenience as well as hugely annoying at times. Whenever wireless charging starts or stops, the screen wakes up and you get an annoying 'ding' (my wife calls it 'boop-boop') sound. The problem is that once the battery reaches 100%, wireless charging stops, you get the ding, and then 5 minutes later (sometimes 5 seconds later) you get the ding again when the battery drops to 99% and charging resumes.
Needless to say, listening to these 'boop-boops' all night long had my wife ready to launch my phone out the window. There didn't seem to be any easy fix- no ROMs address this, and the system volume had no effect on the sound.
The way I took care of this was to simply kill that stupid 'boop-boop' audio file. It's located at /system/media/audio/ui/Charger_Connection.ogg.
You'll need to be rooted for this. Use Root Explorer or ES Explorer to navigate to the directory above. Be sure to mount /system as RW. Then simply rename that file to Charger_Connection.ogg.bak. Unfortunately this doesn't stop the screen from turning on, but it's a good start. Enjoy!
Charger_Connection.ogg is what that annoying sound is on my phone
Although this doesn't have anything to do with the boop-boopiness, if it's dropping to 99% then resuming charging, that's terribly bad for your battery

My bad, you're right. I was writing this post from memory- I updated it accordingly.

I agree, but that just seems to be the design of the wireless charging systems. I've had Qi chargers for several years now, and that's how they've always worked.
I guess with an AC charger, it just trickle-charges when it gets to 100%? I'm not sure that sounds much better, really. Any time you take a Li-Ion battery up to full charge, that's no good. That's why a lot of modern battery-centric systems (ultrabooks, hybrid cars) only use 60-80% of the rated battery capacity, so there's a 10-20% buffer on the 'high' and 'low' sides. Maybe we need an app that can do that for Android phones...
Thanks. I have been looking for how to do this.
NICE! Does anyone know which audio file is used for the NFC tag?
Thats annoying too!

The sound files for NFC are embedded in the apk.
See /system/app/Nfc.apk
res/raw in the apk
there are 6 sound files. I have never used NFC.apk so I have no idea which one(s) you don't want.
there is
end.ogg
error.ogg
soundbooster_end.ogg
soundbooster_error.ogg
soundbooster_start.ogg
start.ogg
I uploaded .zip with all these sounds, let me know which one(s) you don't want, I can make you a VR theme to replace the sound(s) you don't want with a silent.ogg
Many Thanks! when I get home tonight ill check!
I appreciate it!

Any way to disable battery full chirp?

Our stock rom has an annoying chirp that beeps when the battery is full...this is especially annoying at 2am. Occasionally the charge amount drops to 99 even while on the charger if you happen to be doing alot of things at the same time with the phone (wifi, bluetooth etc so not necessarily you right in front of the phone) and it will chirp again.
I wish to KILL THE CRICKET.
Apparently it's not a simple matter since the battery full sound is actually usually coded right into the system ui so it requires someone capable of modding it.
The usual methods such as xposed modules gravity box or more the more specific one "Disable Battery Alert" do NOT work since they were mainly designed to stop Samsung devices that also make this annoying chirp.
*update*
My workaround for the time being was to create a tasker profile for when the battery level is between 99 and 100 and it's plugged into power to mute the notification volume..this does not affect ringer volume...when either of the two conditions changes the notification is set back to the default level. Typically the time from 99 to 100 is only a very short period of time so this works for me for now.

Yet another "workaround"...depending on your specific needs for audible notifications. Myself, I only NEED messages - anything else can wait. So for me, I simply created a dead air ringtone and set it as my default notification tone. And assigned another tone to Messaging. Problem solved.

32.3.A.0.376 build issues

Recently updated to this build. So far having to Major issues. 1 I keep getting boxes flash up on the screen( from the first 30 seconds of power up after update) seem to be notifications " amazon shopping has stopped" and other apps. Issue 2. This is my worst. The low battery notification SOUND has changed to my text alert tone, So far I have found NO way to change this. Anyone outthere thats had these issues or anyone that can help???? Yes I have tried pc companion.
Also looking for a way to change the low battery percentage notification. Its goes at 30%, 20%, 15%, 10% then 5%. I would prefer if it only went on at 15% or below.
