My wife's OnePlus One it's running the last official version of COS that was released a few months back. A few days ago she wanted to change some notification sounds, such as WhatsApp, and asked me to do it.
I went into WhatsApp settings and selected notifications, and went to choose a new one. I expected to be shown a list, but instead I was shown her download folder, with no tones in it, of course.
I know the sound files live in a subdirectory of System, and I can find them with ES Explorer. But I can't browse to them from the app settings.
I went into general settings and found the same thing to be true of ringtones and notifications in general. I tap to change but only get the download folder. It should ask me whether I wasn't to use Media Storage for this (it does on my OPO), but it doesn't.
Any idea what might be wrong, and how to fix it?

Probably somebody selected to use the file explorer as default instead of the standard media/sound picker. Try to clear the defaults for the file explorer which pops up, when you try to select tones. If that does not work, uninstall the app, choose the tones and reinstall it and make it is not selected as default next time.

Uninstall ES file explorer software and check.

Which app could I use? I want to put 5-10 wallpapers to sd card and I want from then to changing on the wall ? Is there any app which supports that ? Sorry for bad English
If I'm reading this right... you want to know how to put wallpapers on your SD card?
- Where from? your PC? - just put them on there.. using file manager..
Then use the wallpaper picker to select them...
It seems that my response is too simple and that you haven't phrased your question well enough for me to answer properly?
I want ,just like in Windows 7 on PC, ti select 5 wallpapers and I want from them to change automatically in some time interval (30 sec)...
Such an app does excist in market. Infact i had it installed myself and it worked fine but after cleaning up i uninstalled it and i cant for the life of me remember what its called. Sorry. Check market though...its there somewhere
Download Dropbox...wicked app. Get whatever wallpapers you want and drag and drop to Dropbox, on your pc, and it goes on phone. Put it on your SD card and you can view with Astro File Manager. I have created a wallpaper file on Astro and copy all my wallpapers on this.
I understand what you mean now - You want an app which will create a slide show for your wallpaper.. I think I've seen something that does this but can't find it now. I'll re-post if it comes back to me.
This is the easiest way.
Install application called Wallr

Wallr will enable you to randomly change the Android wallpaper based on a image directory defined by the user.
Default Path: /sdcard/Wallpapers
Tip: To stop automatic change of wallpaper uncheck "Enable Timer".

Tnx guys I'll try all...
Edit: Wallr is freezing my phone, I don't know why...I have restarted phone and uninstalled it...

I was using Wallr from the beginning (rooted & unrooted stage), didnt download application wallpapers and created my own folder and add directory for it. no problems. recently i disabled auto change and kept manual and add to task killer too. still works flawlessly.
Try an app called, Slide Show Paper. It costs $2 in the market
EDIT: It's a live wallpaper, so not available on our X10's until 2.1
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
there is a free app in the market place called wallpaper rotator that will do what your wanting.
I think that everyone here or that has ever flashed a CM rom will agree that one thing they hated above all is the persistent Ghost voicemail icon that can only be removed by either clearing data in the phone app (and after every reboot), or the fix in which you can call Sprint to activate a dumb phone, leaving yourself a message and then clearing the voicemails, then reactivating your smartphone.
As you guys know, i search every devices sections, testing and trying out different mod's/apk's/zip's in hope that it would benefit us all, today i'd like to bring to you......a modified Phone.apk which will get rid of the notification altogether, both the Icon and Notification in the pulldown menu.
*For those of us who have the Sprint VVM installed, it wont mess up the notifications for them.
Screenshot
1. The modified Phone info

}
2. Showing that Sprint VVM notifications still show up after the Modified phone.apk is applied.
3. Took a screenshot right after a Reboot to show no notification at boot.
(Obviously i guess i cant prove this was right after a reboot but take my word for it, feel free to flame if you think otherwise)
Make a Nandroid Backup just in case, I'm not responsible if something messes up your phone.
TESTED AND WORKING ON Jokers CM9 3.3
EDIT: Not working on MIUI
Instructions
1. Go to 'manage apps' / Navigate to 'Phone' and press "Clear data'
2. Download modified Phone.apk
3. Using Root Explorer with 'R/W' set (or similar app), go to your 'system/app' folder and backup the phone.apk or rename with '.bak' extention.
4. Move downloaded Phone.apk from the download location to your 'system/app' folder.
5. Make sure to change the permissions to match the other apps in the folder.
6. Close Root Explorer and reboot into Recovery
7. Go to 'Advanced' and press on 'Fix Permissions' and then reboot phone.
8. Enjoy not having that $%$*&# notification anymore
Big thanks to
JusticeAA for the Mod
tbob18 for making it into an .APK
Happy Modding
I've spent frustrating hours burning through this to make a decent somewhat similar sense 4 music widget through a music app.
I did not theme the inside of the app, maybe I will in the future. Unfortunately for certain reasons I cannot publish this app here, but if you send me a pm I'll definitely let you have it.
I also have as you see below a themed sense 4 equalizer. The app is Audio Fx Widget, I just modified it a bit.
The reason these are frustrating is because I can only do this on a phone, I have no computer.
To install these apps, if anyone wants them.
- Have root
- Root Explorer or Es File Explorer, or some way to put these apps in System/App
- Download, copy or move apps to →
→ System/App → "Copy or Move" Here
- Set permissions rw-r-r-, make sure your writeable so you can place and set these apps.
Reboot and Enjoy!
(Remember, pm for the Music App)

Can you please send me the app thx
great job theming
thanks button pressed, but the dropbox link doesnt work, can you reupload the audio fx widget ?
Okay I know a lot of people asked about this and stuff and I disbanded it altogether. I do have my last modified apk and its a bit different "Mainly the background" but if you want the background shown here I'll look for it and replace it.
I'll upload it to my box stash and you can install it as a normal apk. When you do the widget 4x2 do custom instead or normal as a widget when it asks.

Hey all I'm sorry if this is in the wrong area but this is driving me batty.
I'm a long time user of ES File Explorer and lately for some reason I can not add my Drop box account. The option is there, however the authentication box comes up and its just blank and white and can't type anywhere.
Anybody else run into this?

Yes, I have the same problem.
Oddly, it seems that there are text entry fields there. If you randomly tap around, the keyboard will come up. But typing appears to do nothing. It's as if everything is white-on-white.

Same here just loaded it on my new note 8 blank as well
I have the same problem. It was working fine before. I tried entering the text but I had no luck.
I think I fixed it. And by fix it I mean I bought a Nexus 5.

I fixed it by exporting data settings from my phone to tablet using titanium backup (I was able to set it up on my phone a while ago, but was getting white screen on the tablet)
I ran into the same issue and managed to fix it by clearing app data, uninstalling the app and reinstalling it.

Hi,
Check this image, i think this may help you how to configure dropbox with File explorer.
From Cloud option, you would see Plus icon at the bottom. Tap on it and you would see number of cloud storage account you can connect with your ES File Manager.
Tap on dropbox, you would be asked for your Dropbox credentials. Add your Dropbox login ID and password to authenticate.
Is any one else having problems picking a notification tone with Twitter? Every time I pick one it just goes back to default. Thank you for any help.
Yes I posted the same problems.. and now I'm getting no notifications
Download fenix instead or the new twitter from www.apkmirror.com

the latest APK does the same - reverts back to the default. One option my wife thought of was to change the default to silent and then change the notifications in the other apps.
There are many other apps but none will push the notifications outside of the app for the tweets of people you request because of the Twitter API.

I have the same problem. The button to save the notification sound setting is missing (and exiting the page doesn't automatically save the change).
any resolution on this subject?
No there's been a few updates but no fix for this on the s6. I reported it to twitter but I suppose it's not a very big issue really
Still not seeing any resolution on the latest build 5.69.0
Same issue on the note 5
Here we are 6 months down the line and they still haven't fixed it.
Set "default notification sound" in phone settings to the one you want for Twitter then change notification for messages to the one you want for SMS msgs.
Sent from my SM-G920F
The problem is there is no OK button on the notification sound dialog box on the GS6/Note 5.
My wife has a Note 4 and the same Twitter app version has an OK button which successfully changes the tone.
My Note 5 doesn't have an OK buton. Backing out is the same as the cancel button.

Same problem on the Samsung S7. This is really annoying. Please somebody fix this problem
Agreed. Seems like both a minor issue, and because it has lingered for so long, a very annoying one.
Even the Default/Messages setting workaround upthread is a no go for me, because there are apps (i.e. my local news app that send breaking news alerts) that give the Twitter sound with that setup.
Seems this should have been fixed a long time ago.
Sent from my SM-G935V using XDA-Developers mobile app
Download es file Explorer. Remove the app defaults for twitter/media storage. Open twitter and go to notifications. When it pops up the app to use choose es file Explorer and browse to ur customer notification. Works for me on s7
