I rooted my gear 2 and am now able to use my own ringtones and notifications without any problem. I pushed my own files (*.ogg) into /opt/share/settings/Alarms/ and renamed them to Alarm_TickTac.ogg, Alarms_on_call.ogg and Alarm_TickTac.wav (for a wav file). I got no sound at the end of a timer or an alarm set on the phone, so I deleted my own files and pushed the originals back. I still get no sound at the end of a timer or on an alarm set on the phone. Ringtones and notifications still work fine, but no alarm sounds. I've checked and rechecked the spelling of the filenames (including capitalization) and the permissions (ls -la) and everything SEEMS to be right. It just no longer works. I searched here and I spent half the night googling and trying to find similar problems and then I decided to just ask here. Anyone got any ideas? I DID want to be able to set my own sound for the alarm, but now I'd be happy just to get any sound back.

Thanks. I Did the first part of the guide (creating the sdb folder in the root of C and downloading those files. Then executing the batch file and it seemed to go fine. But then I moved to the second part - when I tried to run install-alarms.sh, it said command not found. It said the same for setup-folder.sh. And still no alarms sound. Of course, there's no files there now to sound. I deleted what was in /opt/share/settings/Alarms/ .
You mustn't be running tizen mod. The .sh scripts are included in his rom

I'm sure you're right. I had a Gear 1, and I DID run the tizen mod and had no problems like his. I just hadn't realized that there were more mods out there. Yeah, actually it's named Root GEAR 2 R380XXU0BNE5.rar. So, I'm thinking I should probably just run the tizen mod. It should install right over this one, shouldn't it?
Well I just tried flashing with TizenMod-Rom-SM-R380-NE5-by-Skin1980-v3.0 and Odin 3.09, and after a couple of seconds, I got the message "<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)". I don't know where to go from here. A factory reset you think? There's nothing I'm attached to on that watch yet. Certainly nothing I can't redo quickly. I only got this watch Saturday.
Update: The watch isn't even ringing when I get a call. The notifications work - at least when I select them they play, but I just happened to be looking at the watch and I got a display of an incoming call, but there was no sound. Notification sounds DO work. But other sounds don't?
I did a factory reset and then tried the tizen mod with Odin again, and got exactly the same result. Failed after a few seconds. So there must be something there that didn't get reset that tizen can't mod. But now I have alarm sounds. But I have those obnoxious camera sounds and I can't customize ringtones or notifications. Maybe I should flash back to the original ROM and then do the tizen mod? Any idea where I'd get the original factor ROM?
Update: It works fine. I shouldn't do this when I'm sleep deprived. After a factory reset, USE debugging had gotten turned off again, so of course it failed. I fixed it, put the watch in download mode, ran odin and flashed it, and now I have my custom ringtones, notifications AND alarms and everything works great. Many thanks!
Oh sorry for some reason I didn't see these posts. Til now. Yeah reseting always disables usb debugging. To save time next time you reset. I've created an aio batch file to flash everything in 1 go. Head over to the tizen original development forum and take a look

I, like an idiot, deleted an alarm sound off of my Droid Charge without first backing it up, and now I'd like it back. I did that because I copied an alarm sound file (snooze.mp3) from my defective Thunderbolt that I wanted to use on my Charge, but it still appears as a choice on the menu of alarm sounds when configuring the alarms, so I'd like to put it back on my phone. I should've made a copy of it before I deleted it, but I thought that it would just automatically no longer appear on the list of alarm sounds since it was gone. MY Droid Charge has been rooted and I am using a custom ROM, GummyCHARGED 1.8.5, and the alarm sound I deleted and want back is Toy_watch.ogg, I believe. Does anybody know where I can obtain a copy of this sound file? I was just deleting it because I copied and put on my Charge two mp3's from my Thunderbolt, beeps.mp3 and snooze.mp3, and I wanted those to be the only two choices when selecting alarm sounds. However, when I saw it still appeared in the list, even after rebooting, I didn't delete any others.
Alternatively, if someone can tell me how to remove it from the list, that would be great, too!
Thanks,
Dennis
Nevermind! I realized I still had the ZIP file of GummyCHARGED 1.8.5 on my PC, so I just went in there and extracted the alarm sound I needed, then pasted it onto my Charge.

Hello Everyone,
I tried researching this topic but haven't found any with that seem to deal with my issue.
I'm having a very interesting situation going on. I upgraded my phone to ICS, and have done a Factory reset. I have noticed that my Default Notification sound will be set to Piezo Alarm, and my ringtone will to Ta Da. No matter what I change them to, my phone will revert back to these within 24 hours. Has anyone else heard of this? or have any suggestions on what I can try?
Thanks

Glad im not the only one out there, i have this same issue and would like to know if there is a fix for this as well.
I have gone back and tried FLASHED the ICS update via ODIN and still have the exact same issue. Tried multiple Factory Resets and still it reverts. I did a search from my PC and found "piezo.ogg" in system\media\audio\alarms and renamed it to "piezo.old" to see if that makes any difference. I'll let you know if this has any effect.
I've run into this issue with multiple roms (Sky ICS and CM9) although not to every 24 hours, but it just randomly seemed to forget what ringtone I chose and went back to the default one (it would be listed as "Unknown Ringtone). I think maybe it doesn't like that I'm using an MP3 as a ringtone.
I received my wireless charging receiver today, so I installed it and tried it out on my existing (From S3) Qi charging pad. Seemed to work OK.
Tonight I put the phone on the pad and it starts playing "Over the Horizon" from the speaker. Over and Over again. The only way to get it to stop is to re-boot, but if I put in on the charging pad, it plays that damn song again.
I am rooted, completely stock (including recovery) using towel root. I manually replaced the 2 framework files for the hotspot fix, which is all I really care about. Knox is not tripped.
I have used root explorer to rename all instances of "Over_the_Horizon.mp3" to 'notOver_the_Horizon.mp3' including the one labled as media preview. (Samsung must be very proud of this track, I count at least 6 instances on the device.)
I have renamed the charging connected sound to *.bak, and I get no sound from a usb charger, its just the wireless charger.
There is nothing in the task bar to indicate something is playing music. There is no task to kill that I can find. I have used the stock recovery to clear caches, didn't work. Volume control has no effect until sound is off.
This is driving me a little nuts.
The temp solution is to turn off all sound, but there has to be a better way, so I'm asking. I'm sick of this song. Please Help.
Solution Found
OK, here is what I did to solve this problem.
Re-flashed NE5. This restored all my system/media/audio/ui files. I had renamed some and deleted some because I don't like them.
The trick is that if the 'WirelessChargingStarted.ogg' file is not found because of deletion or even renaming, the default file (that damned) 'Over_the_Horizon.ogg' will play. Then because it's an error condition, it will keep playing forever, or until re-boot, whichever happens first.
So, I renamed a file that is not obnoxious (Pen_att_note1.ogg) and renamed it 'WirelessChargingStarted.ogg after renaming the original to .bak. This has solved my problem.
I have re-rooted with towel root and reinstalled the hotspot hack and all is well. When I charge my phone, I now do not wake my wife.

Hi people from XDA,
today i tried a few things with my S7 running resurrection Rom with Android 9, which resultet in a boot loop. I tried using unofficial xposed framework and some recommended modules. This Problem got solved with a factory wipe inside my recovery.
After the wipe, i obviously had to setup my system again.
Then it happened: a constant ringing sound was heard, sounding more like a ringtone. I tried killing all background apps and playing around with the sound settings, but nothing worked. I rebootet the phone and it seemed to have solved the problem, until it started again after some time. I checked for malicious apps and all kinds of settings, including do not disturb and other stuff.
What I did find out, was the fact, that the tone was linked to the ringing volume slider/setting.
I would appreciate any help, but nothing like turning off the sound. I want to know the source and reason for it to happen.
I have some new information. The tone is played, when i have unread messages in my status bar. After opening all the messages from the bar, the tone stops. Sometimes its buggy, then it continues until there are new messages that I need to read to make it stop.
Edit: I found the "name" of the tone. i didn't find it under ringtones nor notifications, but under wake up sounds. The name was Argon, but there were two Argon Sounds, which is weird i guess. the lower one sounds more minimalistic and the upper one is the one im currently having problems with. It sounds longer and more like a "happy" tune.

OK so just delete it from system directory.
Such a simplistic idea! Thanks. Didn't thought of that. I'll try it.

Tried it, but it made some interesting things with my phone. Although the file was from alarm sounds, notifications suddenly had "19" listed as a set sound, which was actually nothing. I changed it to "none" and waited for notifications to test it. I think it worked, but i cant remember, because i had some unrelated (or maybe related?) issues. My magisk manager stated, it had no magisk installed, meaning i didnt have root anymore. I tried to reinstall magisk, but that made my device reboot after a specific time after every boot. Right now i'm trying to fix my Rom. Feels bad.
Edit: Rom works perfect again. Deleted the sound file again and it seems to work.
For now my Problem got solved by deleting Argon from the alarms folder.
If I get any more errors, I'll post them.
I'm very thankful for your answer and I hope my explanation of my problem was not problematic.
I just got my son an S21+ and the notification sounds don't work. Ringtones work fine and when I go to the list of ringtones every one previews when I select them, but when I go to the notification sounds, I can choose any one on the list and no sound comes out of the phone. I also copied a notification sound file over from my Note 10+ and it plays it in an external app, but not when I choose it in the list of notification sounds.
System sounds don't seem to work either. When I unlock the screen or plug in the charge cord, it doesn't make any sound either. The only system sound that seems to work are ringtones, and the phone actually rings when I call it.
I searched online and checked everything I found and could possibly think of. Since nothing happens when choosing ANY sounds in the notification sounds list, it seems like some sort of android issue. Do Not Disturb is NOT enabled, and all volumes are maxed out. There are no particular apps muted. I don't know if it's a hardware or software issue, but it seems like that part of the system is just broken. The phone did update to 13 as soon as I set it up, so I have no idea if it worked before that. I did a factory reset, cleared cache, and ran the repair apps from recovery, and it still doesn't work.
Just wanted to post on here an see if anyone had this issue and if so what else it could possibly be before I send the phone back and get something else. It is also a refurbished phone which I guess could have something wrong with it, but almost every phone I have ever owned was a preowned phone and this is the first I have had an issue with. Any info is appreciated.
I realize that this was posted 6 months ago but my phone has the same problem and I would like to know if a fix was found ?
I posted on here and a few other forums and got nothing but crickets. I ended up just returning the phone and buying another one and it worked fine. Did you get the phone like that or was it working fine and then one day it wasn't?
