Are you rooted? You can also remove the jingle and animation by deleting the two qmg files in /system/media...it's been awhile but somthing like samsungstartuploop.qmg?

then follow the instructions.....

use Root Explorer and delete:
/system/etc/PowerOn.wav
/system/media/audio/ui/Shutdown_128.ogg

Managed installation with Clockwork and now startup/shutdown is fast and clean.
Thank you, for the zip.

Thanks a bunch! That jingle annoyed the piss out of me.

That jingle is just horrible. Who in their development department thought that was a good idea?? At LEAST they could have made it optional...

Here's what has been posted so far. Hopefully one of the links will download fast for you with everyone trying to get their hands on it.
Note: I haven't downloaded any of these personally, I don't know if they're reliable/safe, I'm only taking them from the other threads to make them easier to get to.
Note: Don't try to flash this. Wait for a developer to make a flashable zip.

And it was So many post was trying to make sense out of it. It was more of a cautionary measure. I guess it does what.... Break root.

I need some help

So my friend gave me his broken mytouch 4g, It's stuck at the boot screen and when I hboot to recovery it gives me the red triangle with exclamation point in the middle of it I am assuming this means I have no recovery installed? I can get to hboot and trying to factory reset it doesn't work either. It's not rooted or have any custom rom installed so I don't know how to fix it. Any help is greatly appreciated,

using the method Phateless gave you doesn't involve moving files to the phone. the zip file goes on the SD card, and then boot phone into hboot

You will move the files to the micro sd card. then boot into hboot, it will read the pd15img.zip and then you can select to flash that img. it will restore the phone to stock settings. you can then proceed to root and install cwm recovery.

Definitely not at that level yet mate, I just enjoy helping........ some people, others I just like to annoy so if I ever do make it to that stage I'd much prefer to swing over to the darkside. Its more fun.
I don't think its possible for clockwork to open a zip file??
It'll either try to flash or come up with an error.

[ROOT][FC09]

Hey guys!
I have a root method for the OG Epic on Android 2.3.6 FC09!
All the requirments are that you install ODIN from the link below and download the proper files from the links below as well!!
Step one) put your device into Download Mode
Step 2) Connect to your computer and make sure ODIN recognizes your device
Step 3) Flash the Clockworkmod.tar.md5. Make sure EVERYTHING is unchecked INCLUDING AUTOREBOOT!!!!
Step 4) Once ODIN does its thang, unplug your phone and pull the battery
Step 5) Now reboot into CWM Recovery by pressing and holding the power button, camera, and volume down button until the capacitive buttons at the bottom show
Step 6) Now locate the ROM.zip. It should be called DeodexedFC09.zip
Step 7) Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache Partition, Wipe Dalvik Cache, and if you want Wipe Batt Stats
Step 8) Now reboot, and you should be running Stock Rooted FC09!
Enjoy!!

Thanks for trying to help the community, and welcome to the Epic forum
As you can see, some of the old timers like to pounce on the new posters, so please take it all in stride

Ummm...hi...welcome here...we are all rooted here and have been for a long time. It sounds like you are just writing out the instructions in qbking77's video using my FC09 deodexed ROM to root. Same thing but thanks for trying.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

Greatly appreciated! If you've got that down...try learning more! There is lots out there to learn! For instance trying different roms and kernals and see what you can find that someone hasn't or learn to build app(I'm working on one). Skys the limits....Always Challenge Yourself, even if you complete one thing.
Thanks for helping the Community, someone will find this helpful!

If memory serves; didn't Mkasick write a zip that prevented the stock recovery overwrite? This way, you could leave the "auto reboot" box checked in Odin when rooting? I seem to remember a follow-up QBK77 video chronicling such an event...

If u wanna keep the hazing going go ahead. But I'm not a newbie. Lol. I'll probably post a how to root the galaxy s3 tutorial

When I was looking for the new method the only thing I found the specifically talked about root access was the video. I know that there is a thread in development but you have to dig into the thread a bit since it's not stated in the OP.
