I have googled and googled, and even searched these forums, but nowhere have I found a working guide to get sound with a bootlogo on the Atrix 2. I am a complete noob, (as the video kindly stated) but I do have root access and have managed to add my own animation, just the sound will not play. I have the files named properly in the desc file, and they are ogg. I placed them in system\media, as most of the guides told me to, but still it's just silent. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
make sure you had sound on before reboot. that could cause problems
I have had sound enabled the whole time. It's really getting frustrating, as I've tried every option. Does anyone know how to help?

I have a Samsung Exhibit 2 that I just rooted. The main issue that I keep having and had before I rooted is with the custom ringtones. Before I rooted I tried everything I could to get them to stay, but every time someone would call who I designated a custom ring, the default ring would play. This happens about 50/50. I could not figure out why the phone was randomly getting confused about which ring to play. I've used the zedge app because people said it would create the right folders to put them in and it didn't work. I've used ringdroid and a few others. I have moved the actual files around to different folders on the phone using astro and even changed/created folders thinking that would fix it. Nothing has worked. It may work for a few hours or a day or so, but eventually it still reverts back to the default tone sporadically.
Here's where I'm at now. I just rooted the phone because I read that the reason why I was having trouble is because when the tones are on the sd card the phone sometimes loses them and goes into the internal memory to get the default. Which by the way that last statement is weird because even when it went to the default, I had a mp3 for it as well and it was not on the internal, but oh well. So I rooted and moved the ringtones to the system/media/ringtones folder I believe. Well as you can tell, it worked for most of the day yesterday. Now this morning someone called and boom, default ringtone again. I know that this is something that seems insignificant, but it's driving me crazy. I love to be able to hear the phone and know who's calling without looking at it. I've looked at about a dozen forums and tried everything and no luck. If anyone has any suggestions I'd much appreciate it.
So nearly a week later it's still an issue. Does anybody have any advice? It still seems very random on when it wants to work or not. Thanks.
So you installed a custom rom, put them on the interal memory ringtones folder and that STILL didn't work?
That's bizarre man...
You probably already tried this, but did you try putting them in /sd/media/ringtones or /sd/ringtones? That's where I have mine with no issues on any phones I've had.

Yeah I was so excited cause I thought rooting would be the solution. Before I rooted I moved them to both of the places you mentioned. I've allowed zedge to set the ringtones and it didn't work. I think I tried another app that created a new ringtones folder, but that didn't work either. I have no clue what the problem is, but I've pretty much given up and decided to live with the randomness for now. I mean I don't see any other solutions. How the phone can get confused about which ringtone to play when I've moved it to the actual /system ringtones folder inside the phone memory is beyond me. It doesn't even have to access the sd card or do a media scan. Oh well.
Okay, there doesn't yet seem to be any thread relating to the use of the standard CyanogenMod ROM (CM11 and not 11S).
I've been using the recent NIGHTLIES from the following link:
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=bacon
However, I'm getting something rather strange, and I don't know how to fix it. When I get a call, my device rings ONLY ONCE, even though the call is still coming through. I've tried changing the ringtone, but with the same result ... ONLY ONE RING.
Everything else seems to be working flawlessly.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Peter
Addendum: I may have found a solution. It's not what I would prefer, but at least it appears to work. Normally, it makes no difference where you have your ringtones. Either in System/Media/Audio, or on the internal sdcard; however, when on the internal sdcard, all ringtones sound only once. If they are in System/Media/Audio, they will continue to ring until the call is answered. I'm still doing more testing.
Addendum 2: Nope! Still problems, and still testing.
Hey everyone.
I can't believe I did something so stupid, but you live and learn, and while this is not the end of the world, if anyone has a solution that would be great.
I've been using this nifty little program to record conference calls and I am usually pretty good at uploading them to my Dropbox but I got lazy and removed my root yesterday so I could upgrade to Lollipop on my Note 3. The unroot process went fine until I got stuck in a boot loop so of course I did a factory reset.
Keep in mind, prior to doing this upgrade, I did a backup with TWRP and I also had a backup with Titanium. Low and behold when I hit the home screen, all the recorded files were gone. I was puzzled because I thought for sure my precautionary measures would restore those audio recordings. Nope.
I attempted to reinstall the custom ROM I had prior and no dice on that either. I am guessing its gone, but I am throwing this out to the forums in the event someone has a solution. Thanks in advance.
I would try to extract the files from the backup. Just check here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1808486
No dice. Apparently TWRP and TiBu doesn't save certain files at the local level., including .wav files from the recording software. I've yet to find a backup online that works. I'd even be willing to pay. Lost my screen shots too. This is a hard pill to swallow because I honestly believed I did everything right until I realized I did it all wrong.
Hello experts.
Let me explain my problem completely.
I've got a n910h which was android 4.4.4 and I flashed the 5.1.1 android version on it myself.
And after that I rooted it and had no problem.
But once I read a thread about volume boost of note 4 but I wasnt sure about which serie of note 4 it is for. But I think once I read in that topic that it's for "c" series which contained two system files; 1. Default_gain.conf and the other one default_gain.conf[stock].
So I cut my default system file and paste it to other folder, then pasted the new system file.
But for no reason I wanted my stock file to replace it with the downloaded one. But I didn't delete the downloaded one, just overwrited the stock one on that and everything was messed up. No call sound on both sides, but the video player was ok.
So downloaded the stock file from here which I repeat I didnt know if its supposed to work on 'h' series. But I deleted that one and put this one instead.
Everything turned back to normal.
But after 3 days, now on during calls, the person's voice is hearable but he cant hear my voice.
Another thing is that when I restart my phone and rapidly call someone before apps load, they can hear me no matter how long I talk. But after one call, the next calls, my voice doesnt reach to the person.
I guessed two things:
1. Its the system file I messed with ( but in this case, system files are completely loaded after phone is started so I think this isnt why my mic doesnt work in calls)
2. An app is doing this due to its permissions given. (Because after apps are loaded, the calls turn like this
Does anyone have any fix for that?
Can anyone please upload his n910h, default_gain.conf system file?
Note: Ive tried to flash to the same file I used to upgrade to 5.1.1 with odin, but it was stuck on 'connecting' and doesnt let me to flash it on downloading.
Thanks already.
Does anyone have any solution please?
WRONG FORUM AREA, MEANT TO POST IN GALAXY S7 EDGE. If someone could inform me how to delete this post, I would be grateful.
Copied and pasted from my Reddit post.
I've been searching the internet for a while for a fix on this, and there seem to be a handful of people who have had this issue in the past, but fixed it through varying means, from rebooting the phone, to full on factory reset. However, I'm not sure if I'm having the same issue with this phone. I'm new to Samsung, as I was previously an iPhone user for four years, and have simply imported the MP3s as they were onto my new phone.
I was listening to music the other day on my heaphones (if it matters, AudioTechnica ATH-M30, three years of age), when I heard a slight unfamiliar pop. It happened once and I brushed it off as a one time thing. Then it happened again about a minute later. It wasn't loud or anything, rather quiet if anything, but it still comes across to me as slightly infuriating. The pops usually occur from a minute apart from each other to 30 seconds. I tried switching from Google Play to another music playing application. Shuttle had the same issue, as well as GoneMad, and having PowerAmp (the one that's been told to have fixed this issue) produce the same issue had me come here.
I've tried turning the equalizer in each app to Flat or Off, if given the option. I've tried rebooting the phone. I've tried plugging my headphones into another computer to see if they were the problem, but the music was fine on the computer. By this point, I've tried everything I could possibly think of and every other possible solution given on other forums, yet to no avail. I would try converting the MP3s into WAVs or whichever audio file extension is recommended for this phone, however I found that not only my music apps do this, but other applications as well. Not too confident that converting them will help in any way. This happens with both my headphones (which are 65 ohms) and earphones that were provided alongside the phone (35 ohms). The one in the thread said it may have to do something with the impedance. Just adding this bit in if that's the case.
The reason that I'm so obsessed with this dinky little issue is because I listen to ambient albums. Randomly scattered snapping in the audio really puts off the atmosphere. I'm also an audiophile.
Is anyone else having this issue? If so, will there be a fix? Is there a temporary fix for now? Could it be faulty drivers, and if so, should I get my phone replaced?
Thanks for any and all feedback!
