I pulled a few files from my g3 for lock and unlock and they sound way better. No more clunk sound that seemed like it was a mistake. They are located in system/media/audio/ui.

Put these files in that folder and set permissions to rw-r--r-- (0644)
Save the old ones or replace em. Either way I warned you. Have fun.

Is that location where you got the g3 files from or where you replace them on the nexus 6? I can't see or access that location on my nexus 6...

On both phones. You need root and don't look under sd card look under system. Like this.
Very cool idea. Thanks OP
Awesome! If I wanted to replace them with some custom sounds of my own, is .ogg required or can I just use .wav files? I'm new here, thanks!

Hello. I know I have seen this before but can't seem to find it anywhere. Can the battery full notification be turned off? Thank you in advance.

There's no setting that can turn it off... other than to lower your volume or put notifications on Silent.
You could try renaming the TW_battery_caution.ogg file in system/media/audio/ui that would eliminate it from being found when it tries to play the sound. (haven't tried this so it may throw an error (doubtful)... at which point you could rename it back to the original name)
Like JoeDV says--
Go to Settings - Sound and Display - System Volume - and move the slider all the way to the left and touch OK. You will still have the visual notice, but NO sound.
If you want other sounds from the "system", this won't work for you, but I always have system volume turned all the way down. For me, it helps convserve the battery.

I think you're onto something here. Rather than renaming the file, and potentially causing an issue when the system tries to call on that file to play the sound, you could REPLACE the sound file with one that contains no sound.

Well, yeah... you could do that too. Good idea.
Feel free to delete sound files in that folder.
I deleted Lock.ogg inside that folder since I like the unlock noise but not that crappy tick for locking it.
Also deleted shutdown.ogg...
As the title says I'm wondering if it's possible to change the sound played as the phone is locked. Im currently using serendipity 6.4. I couldn't find anything in the settings menu about it so I figured I would come here

have you tried searching for apps on market that might aid in this? Some of em might have options in the settings. I really don't know of any, but you could try "lockbot". I think that one lets you change lockscreen and stuff. Then of course you could silence it, but I know that's not what your going for
the sound its located here: /system/media/audio/ui
the screenlock sound is called (oddly enough) Lock.ogg
take a sound you want to use, make sure its .ogg format, rename it Lock.ogg and drop it in the directory i with root exploerer or adb said and reboot. that should work ... havent tried it personally but it should work.

I just installed 24a and I'm modding my system ui tones back to what I had before and I can't seem to get the shut down tone to work and I wanted to see if someone could look on their phones and see if I have it named right
Edit** these can be found under system/media/audio/ui

The names look right, but your permissions look wrong.........should be rw-r--r-- not rw-rw----
Try changing the permissions to see if it works.
Good call on that, It still isn't working but it's something that slacked on

Does anyone know how to open the facer file, or even how to export the watch face from inside facer?
I downloaded a really nice watch, but it has a bezel and all I want to do is remove the bezel so it looks good on the G watch R.

As far as I know, you have to edit it on your phone using Facer app. If you extract .zip and edit it, face won't work anymore.

Yeah, can't you just edit the watch face in Facer and then select and delete the bezel image?

All you have to do is put a .img at the end of the item inside the facer zip and once your done take the.img off and there you go.
cheers, that worked

You can also put PNG at the end for editing on a PC
How about duplicating images in the file? I copied a watch file I wanted to edit, unzipped it and added the .png extensions, copied the parts I wanted to modify. Modified the parts, removed the extensions, zipped it up and copied it to the Facer folder. Selected the new face file in the app and it didn't load. No error message.
Is there any rhyme or reason to the naming of the files? Basically what I'm trying to do is to make true dim state faces as most of the ones for the moto 360 don't work well for the GWR.
I did edit the data file as well to add the duplicated parts.

This is what developer of Facer have answerred to someone complaining about non working faces on Google Play

That happens when uses modify face files outside of Facer, unfortunately there is nothing I can do to fix this.

So when you modify files manually it breaks face and Facer can't load it anymore.
If you want to edit them, edit in Facer.

I'll have to install the app on my tablet and try modifying the parts. The problem is that I need to duplicate the face and hands and doom them but I don't see a way to duplicate them in the app.

Ok, I see what I need to do. Take the existing file and modify the graphics as needed and then import them with the app.

Success. Modified this one into a proper dimming face for the GWR. Need to do a few more.

Add them to the "notifications" folder within your phone. I have been doing this for years since I like to use the same ringtones and notifications no matter what phone.

No, plugin your phone into your PC, browse the phone and look for a Notifications folder.

I know where the notifications folder is and can browse to it with es file explorer. It's a read only folder so it won't let you copy anything in there unless you have root access.

Plug it into your PC, set the phone into MTP mode (not ptp mode) and copy the files from your PC to phone. This is what I do, it won't let me upload a screen shot from my settings otherwise I would be able to show you mine.

You're right. Doh!
I'm fairly new to Android and tried adding it in the system folder which is write protected.
Another question. Is there a way to not make the ringtones I've added show up in the music app? I only want my albums to show up and not random ringtones and notifications.
No rooting needed!

Just got a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and I was bummed that I could not add my own notification tones. Then I found this forum and am I glad that I did because now I can add my own notifications by connecting my phone to my laptop and transferring the tones to the Notifications folder! Most awesome thing ever! :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

I don't know if it works but a .nomedia file in the folder might keep it hidden
