I'm running Quantum ROM 2.5 w/ EXT4 and DK28 with AOSP lockscreen and ADW.EX as my launcher of choice.
My wife is running stock with TW.
The only thing I miss about my stock Epic is the TW unlock sound effect. Reminds me of the NCIS sound byte that pops coming out of commercials.
Is it possible to add a custom unlock sound byte/effect to the AOSP unlock?
Anyone know how to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance! Superficial I know, can't help it, I hear it on my wife's phone all the time.

You would have to replace the 'unlock.ogg' file in /system/media/audio/ui. Would be pretty straight forward if you could get your hands on the sound file for what you would like to use. I'm not running a stock ROM so I can't grab the .ogg file that applies for stock TW sound.
Thanks Leather, but it's not that simple.
There is already an Unlock.ogg but I went ahead and backed it up and replaced and rebooted and still no sound on AOSP unlock bro... gotta be something deeper than that!
What next?

This might sound silly, but make sure that you have 'Screen Lock Sounds' enabled in the phone's sound settings. If you can get A sound to work then you should just have to replace 'unlock.ogg' with the TW one (renamed of course).

Silly, no... I'm just hard headed! There it was all along. I thought I'd have to change a configuration file or something a little more challenging. Thanks for pointing out the setting, din't know it was a standalone option there!
Working great now! Thanks!

Hey folks,
Got a question for you. On my shiny new SGH-i337M (Rogers Stock, rooted only) GS4, I want to change the sound of my unlock sound. I'm using the light effect, but want to change the sound from the sort of ding-a-ling to a different tune (I have the audio file I want to use already, MP3 format (can change if needed)).
I've looked in /system/media/ui, and none of the unlock options there seem to be the right one, so I'm kinda stumped.
Thanks,
don't think you can custom change unlock sound--maybe if rooted
i have copy & pasted my custom ringtone and notification sounds to appropriate folders
you can add your own text to lockscreen though--get ris of "Life Companion"
EDIT: Found this for S3--did not have time to look at it--

It is most likely inside the app for the unlock stuff. You'd have to decompile the app find it in the app then change the name of the new file whatever the old one was and then recompile it.
EDIT: shouldn't take but 10 mins at most.

/system/media/audio/ui
There's an unlock.ogg audio file there

Had time to look at this and found audio/ui also. But, my phone plays the att sound and nothing else. Either on or off per Settings/My Device/Sound/Screen Lock Sound. I turned it off then back on and I get a ding when turning power on. Wierd. The unlock.ogg doesnt't sound anything like the att sound I have. Must be missing something? Doesn't really matter to me though, prefer sound off anyway.
As a side note, semi OT, I finally, through all my noob reading, found out how to get rid of "Life Companion" on lockscreen. Thank Goodness--
@geoldr, I'd already looked there, if you'd read the post. The unlock.ogg isn't the same sound.
@toxicpaulution, that's a good option. I'll look into it (assuming I can learn to do that. I'm not THAT in-depth of knowledge about the Android OS.
Altered Sounds For D/L
Hey, new here! However, i have managed to edit two sounds so far. The Lock sound & the start-up Sound. Lock sound is Mario Pipe sound, and start-up sound, if anyone is interested in rap, is Bone Thugs & Harmony - 1st Of the Month.
>Must be Rooted<
Download Files Below & Extract.
Then Simply navigate to > /system/media/audio/ui and replace files :
lens_flare_lock.ogg (Lock Sound)
PowerOn.ogg (Start-up Sound)
Reboot Phone to Enable new sounds.
Currently working on Unlock sounds as well, haven't got it yet . However, anyone who wants a custom sound (Start-up/Lock) of their own, Shoot me a message & I'll see what i can do :victory:
I do not think this will work with light effect selected, this method requires the ripple effect to be selected.
I may be wrong. But the last that tried, it had to be ripple.

Thanks Venom!!! I replaced my lock/unlock ui sounds but couldn't figure out how to get rid of the ripple effect that played before my custom unlock sound. Replaced the unlock.ogg file (ripple sound) within the Framework.apk (resources/raw) and was able to get the exact effect I wanted.
I tried the lens_flare_lock.ogg now I can't lock my screen . Please help

I gave up on DSP Manager after it never seemed to play music via the right profile (eg, bluetooth headphones would often be played with the "speaker" profile, or other shenanigans)
Then I discovered Vipers Audio! And never looked back... (I have this running on my Note 3)

Wow thanks for the prompt reply dude. I agree Dsp isn't perfect, but it would help compared to stock, it's really awful imo.
So, in your experience has Viper improved the external speaker experience? I'm not so fussed with the 3.5, it's the external sounds that are bugging me.
Thanks

I haven't used it for the external speaker (but it supports this, just as DSP Manager does), but I don't think you'll be disappointed if you were to try it.
FYI: I use the "Lock effect mode" to force my Bluetooth audio profile onto all audio outputs, works a charm.

This could be what I'm looking for, but I'm still relatively new to flashing etc, seems a bit daunting, the installation process? I take it you need to be rooted?

Yes, you need root to complete the install. It goes something like this: install it like a normal APK, open it, it will ask for root privs, once granted, it will autoinstall the audio driver, and then all you need to do is restart. Job done!

Thanks, this could be the key to make me love my Note 3. I need to root it first, then I'll look at tackling the installation in near future, thanks for replying, appreciate it
Just a thought tho - the Note 3 external driver is small, doesn't it distort easily driving bassy beats?

Yeah, heres my profile I use: *lots* of bass via the Dynamic Subsystem module, EQ that brings out the highs, and the "Extreme Headphone V1" listening device.
The profile files go under your SD Card under the viper4android/profiles directory (if the folder doesn't exist, try saving a profile first to autocreate it)

Dude.....seriously?
Bass is driven by the amount of air the driver can push - Base is omni-directional (i.e.you feel it rather than hearing where it's coming from) so it doesn't really matter where you put your bass unit from a surround sound setup.
If you think the external speaker is going to give ANY sort of bass, you're seriously misguided, sorry!
If the frequency is too low then the unit just won't play it, that's why speakers have a frequency range.

Hello everyone,
I have a AT&T Galaxy S4 (technically Active, but honestly the carrier doesn't matter for this particular situation and the actual Active thread is all but dead and this applies to any TouchWiz S4). Like the title says, the weird thing is, I've replaced the "water bubble" stock touch sound in the system/media/audio/ui to be the stock 4.4 sound and everything works fine as it should except the galley app. When I go into the gallery app and click on a particular gallery to open and view pictures, it still makes the "water bubble" touch sound. Am I missing a secondary location of one?
Thank you!

Dude...decompile the gallery apk and you will find the sound in the app subfolders after decompile!It should be in "res" folder.

I didn't even think of the sound being built into the app itself. Decompiling unfortunately is beyond me, I'll just seek a stock gallery replacement. Thanks for the help!
Since yesterday after I played a whatsapp voice message, I can't turn off the camera shutter and Screenshot sound, even though I have my phone in complete silent mode!
Did anyone ever have this problem with their 6p or know any solution to turn off those sounds?
I allready restarted the phone, uninstalled the camera updates and reinstall from the play store, went into the settings to make sure I was in silent mode, still nothing works!
Any help is much appreciated!
I think that Google's intent was to prevent non-determined creeps from taking "upskirt" shots and other related idiocies. You have to delete/rename some file, I think it was /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg or some such. This needs root.

It's illegal in South Korea (and many countries) for any mobile phone maker to sell a phone that allows a user to silence the faux shutter sound on their mobile phone cameras. You'll need to download a custom ROM that allow them to be silenced, or delete the sound like the above posted said.

That is really interesting! A friend of mine has a stock samsung galaxy s7 and it doesn't make a single sound when taking a picture!
Anyways, thank you very much for your answer, really appreciated and I even learned something!
