[Atrix 4G Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Done! OP edited! :)

I wasn't sure who to give credit to because I have no idea what added the line to my build.prop. I never installed Gladiatrix so it must have been added when I flashed the Cool Blue theme since I think it uses some Gladiatrix files.

Worked like a charm. Thanks! :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] franciscojavierleon:
Nope, you need to add the line first to build.prop, i tried the setprop and it wouldn't do anything (i even rebooted), had to put the line. My guess is that you can only setprop for existing properties but haven't confirmed this

Maybe you have to mount /system first as r/w before doing the setprop, who knows? It's just better to edit the file.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] UncleCemka:
I ran the command and it worked, without editing the file. I did have to su first.

"setprop persist.service.mount.playsnd 0" from an adb shell worked here!

On atrix 1.83 works perfectly.

I have no rom, so I had to add the line and remember to click save!! I forgot to save it and had to retype it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Ya. hehe. You have to save it. It's persistent though so once you add the line, it will stay after reboot. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ftdn2006:

It worked for me! Thanks OP!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Joooom:
Seems I am the only one failing from it, I tried different ways to add "persist....." using Root Explorer, edit build.prop on my desktop machine and "setprop" under adb, but all failed. Also, i noticed that the value inside build.prop doesn't change at all even i did "setprop persist.service.mount.playsnd 1".

Can anyone help, mine is ATT 1.83, stock rom, rooted, deodexed, webtopmod.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GibMcFragger:
You want the value to be 0, not 1. 1 is enabled. :)

Sent from my Colorful Themed GladiATRIX on Bell using the XDA Premium App.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Joooom:
No, I used 0 at the first try, but failed, then I was trying "setprop persist.service.mount.playsnd 1" to set the value from 0 to 1, and see if setprop working properly, tried both su and su + r/w, but neither one was working, the value remain unchanged.

Now, I have "persist.service.mount.playsnd=0" at the end of build.prop, but i still get the crazy noise.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tasty_boy:
it works for me!!!

thanks!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xepter:
did you restart your phone after you saved the settings?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GibMcFragger:
I have to ask the obvious, but you aren't actually putting the brackets in when you add it to the build.prop, correct?

Also, you have to reboot after.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Paschalis:
how about disabling and the annoying usb connected sound?

i tried persist.adb.notify / playsnd , with no luck..

then i unticked adb from phone, and the sound still plays..

so we have usb connecting sound..

any ideas? :p
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Joooom:
No, I didn't put in the brackets.

Yes, I did reboot, I read thru every posts here before I started doing this tweak, just to prevent any stupid thing I make. I know my case is weird as it worked on every Atrix.

Do you think it helps by wiping the cache or something?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GibMcFragger:
I have no idea why it's not working for you. If you want, pm me a copy of your build.prop and i'll take a look at it for you. Something must not be right.

Sent from my Colorful Themed GladiATRIX on Bell using the XDA Premium App.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
It should also be noted that the USB connect sound still plays. This just removes the SD card mount/unmount sounds.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Yep! I wish I could kill the usb sounds too, they are bloody annoying.

I tried adding persist.adb.notify=0 but it doesn't kill it.

Sent from my Colorful Themed GladiATRIX on Bell using the XDA Premium App.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
Ah okay, that's what I thought it was supposed to kill for a moment there.

I used Chrome to Phone to push the ADB command over accidentally. Replaced it with the proper build.prop line and replaced the erroneous script I copied over. I was confused when I restarted and kept hearing the annoying USB connection sound! lol
[Atrix 4G Android Development] carkev:
hi guys ..

I'm not in the correct forum here, but can anyone help ?

this thread really interested me as I have been struggling for ages with various postings on XDA, to get boot animation sound on my ZTE blade.

from this link: http://alldroid.org/Default.aspx?tabid=40&g=posts&m=5696

I decided to add the line 'persist.mot.powerup.tone=/system/media/Bootsound.ogg' to my build.prop ... sadly it did not work, my phone froze after splash screen.

I'm thinking that the 'mot' statement may be incorrect, perhaps that should be 'sys' or 'service' as the only similar lines in my file are:

persist.sys.use_dithering=1

persist.service.adb.enable=1

persist.sys.ciq.disable=1

persist.sys.ztelog.enable=0

persist.mot.powerup.tone=/system/media/Bootsound.ogg

I am very hopeful of being on the right track at last ... can anyone suggest what may be the correct syntax ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
This thread has nothing to do with boot animations. Your phone isn't a motorola, so using that line isn't going to work. I would suggest going to the proper forums for your device, or at least another ZTE phone.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] carkev:
my phone is an Android though !

I did know & mention that I was on wrong forum, but is that such a sin ?

to my mind there is a commonality here that some one

may

be kind enough to share.

I got to this link from a google search on build.prop and there are at least some folk here who are managing to 'tweak' sounds ...

albiet not for boot anims.

and there are

no

results on the phrase 'build.prop' in the ZTE forums.

(the best things we can offer others are friendship and the sharing of knowledge)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rusreid:
Great tweak....had to add the line in build.prop....but no probs though.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] matthew5025:
Different phones handle build.prop differently. This is a Motorola device forum, even between Motorola phones we cannot use the same code, how do you think we can help you? Also, you might learn "operation iron fist" the hard way.

If you really want help from people using the ATRIX (bad idea), you can start another thread on how to enable boot animation sound. If you really think that all android devices are similar, you would have more luck posting in the general android section.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rredlin:
i was able to stop the mount / unmount sound by selecting settings/sounds and UN check the SD card notifications!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
Me too maybe they mean the usb connecting mount sounds when switching phone to usb mass storage
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rredlin:
well that's not what it says in the OP, so maybe some atrix don't have this feature?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Stephen Who:
Tbh, this was in my phones settings... All I did was tick the box that said something about sd card sounds. then boom it was gone. No tweaks or mods.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Sweep29:
Hi. Me too. Ran the comand via Terminal after su, and worked first time.

Did try to edit file manually but twice got a soft brick and had to restore using backup..

Noticed I was manually editing file using "=0" but using Terminal I didnt use the "=" sign and it worked OK.

Don't know if this means anything or if it was just my system..... :confused:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] karthick.k11:
I have SMS notification sound problems which stopped after few hours and I need to reboot the phone to get the sound working and again same issue.

Is there anyway work around to fix by add some value in build.prop?

[Thunderbolt General] awwilson21:
All of this GB radio leak talk has me extremely pissed and saddened. You guys saying "I'll take the chance, I have insurance" are committing fraud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, do you have no Moral compass? You are breaking the LAW (committing a FELONY) and you are costing all of us NON-ASSHOLES money. I have a higher insurance rate than I used to because of all the fraudulent claims, we all have encrypted bootloaders because of all the fraudulent claims....

If you run unsigned code and the phone breaks, that is YOUR FAULT, not the OEM or anyone else's.

Honesty is a virtue, and many of you are lacking it, your families would be so proud.

It's a damn shame that jcase pointed out the error and you guys attack him and say that you don't care, you'll just defraud people. I hope Asurion subpoenas your IP addresses and files lawsuits against you all, criminal and civil. Seriously.
[Thunderbolt General] yareally:
I would just like to point out the the OP that his message is in futility to anyone he intends it for. Just saying :rolleyes:
[Thunderbolt General] Morkai Almandragon:
This has always made me wonder...

I can drive down the street with my phone held out the window and when it drops I can have it replaced (via insurance) without hearing someone yell fraud. Sure its stupid, but I could do it.

How is this different?
[Thunderbolt General] awwilson21:
If you threw the phone out the window it would be fraud...

Right vs wrong. Deception vs honesty. Being a good person vs being an asshole.

Does no one ever look in the mirror anymore???

Fraud costs us all, and you have to be one selfish asshole to commit it. You are no more important than I, so why should you be able to cheat a company that will require ME to pay more?
[Thunderbolt General] awwilson21:
If 50 people read it I'll be happy. Just letting them know that there are still some honest people left who will look down upon them for their selfishness. I don't care if any of them change their ways, so long as they know they are assholes.
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:

Just wondering with your strong moral compass do you let others know when you record their phone calls? Being that you not letting someone know they are being recorded could make you an asshole. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=14171309#post14171309
[Thunderbolt General] awwilson21:
Nice try, but in my job I actually investigate fraud, and I start every phone call with "This call is being recorded" and then I ask them to state their name and say that they are aware of being recording. Having that built-in would make my job easier....

Want to try me again? This time in the bonus round where all rewards are doubled?
[Thunderbolt General] MrHawaii:
That could also be a crime. If you are in one of the twelve states listed in this article you would need consent from all parties on a call before you record. I wonder how this would work for cellphones with different area codes since they are mobile and all. For instance, if I have a Hawaii number but I travel to Florida would the law apply to my geographic location at time of making call or where my number is based out of?

[Thunderbolt General] lrs421:
I for one would feel bad about doing it in this case because we were warned before hand. I approach things like tethering differently because I feel like I already pay for data, etc, etc...But this seems different to me (albeit tethering is wrong too). I don't think I could send it in for warranty exchange after being careless and ignored warnings, but, I'm not one to throw stones either way.
[Thunderbolt General] awwilson21:
They'll care when/if they are getting investigated and possibly sent to prison over a $500 phone. Insurance fraud nets you an average sentence of over 2 years in the penal system.... My investigations have led to almost as much jail-time as Denzel's character in "Training day"!!!!!
[Thunderbolt General] jett2314:
I'm sure you do. As for post, although I agree it's wrong to mislead someone. I feel it's not your position to pass judgment on to others since you benefit from their work.
[Thunderbolt General] dopediculous:
Your insurance is higher because your holding a nearly $600 phone, not because of the minuscule % of people doing fraudulent claims. You would be shocked at the #"s of people that have droids to those who root. I work for vzw and honestly probably 1 out of every 20 droids I sell, does the person actually know what rooting is. On that note, they've heard of it, but don't know anything about it and when we explain the voided warranty, they quickly loose interest. It takes someone that is pretty confident in their PC skills to actually follow through with the root process. Plus the ones that actually do get through the process usually know enough to fix any issues they may come across. Ie. Everyone flashing older radios and going back to froyo. Bottom line its all about #s and it is NOT the reason behind Asurion raising monthly cost. Its the device...
[Thunderbolt General] adrynalyne:
Does anyone find it funny that folks are getting bent out of shape over insurance claims, yet insurance companies screw the end user, be it medical, dental, whatever, constantly.

Just stop it with the moral compass crap and insurance talk. Neither belong together. The insurance company certainly has no moral compass. Two wrongs don't make a right...but a right and a wrong, still equals a wrong.

So you either win, or you lose. Moral compass doesn't pay any bills, and it doesn't make either side play fair, just because one side adheres to it.

--Sent from my phone, and off kilter moral compass.
[Thunderbolt General] awwilson21:
How do I benefit from people returning their phones fraudulently??

I don't get it?

Are you saying I benefit because they made a call recorder? In no way is any dev telling anyone to commit fraud, so I obviously am not passing judgement on any of them....

I am passing judgement on the people that cost me $$$$.

I work in the field, so let me tell you, BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING when fraud gets to the insane levels that they have here, and they will respond with appropriate rate hikes and litigation. In fact XDA developers themselves could face court fines if Asurion subpoenaed them and they didn't divulge the IP addresses of the admitted defrauders.
[Thunderbolt General] lrs421:
What a minute, did you peak at my latest medical bill? ;) Their moral compass led them to my bank account.
[Thunderbolt General] oxidant11:
I don't get how its fraud say I accidebtly dropped my phone out the window of my car...I knew before hand that I could drop it and break it but it happened so now let's say I rooted my phone and and it pricked I knew before that it could brick but it happened...it goes the same for swimming with your phone or doing anything else **** give me a break its not like people are breaking their phone on purpose I would agree when it comes to that but their not.
[Thunderbolt General] adrynalyne:
hahaha!

Aint that the truth! :(
[Thunderbolt General] awwilson21:
If you feel like the insurance companies are screwing you, then don't get insurance. Very simple. I'm sure you can afford to pay for a catastrophic illness or disability out of pocket... Most people cannot, and rely on insurance to handle the burden...

You sign an agreement with them, actually a legally binding contract!!!! They don't violate it, so why should you be allowed to?? Because you want to stick it to "the man"????? Great reasoning.

Anyway, I'm out. Got business.

[HD2 General] eatingless:
Hi I need help with this. My friend has "loyalty phone 1st web" which is a data plan on tmobile. She pays 10 dollars a month and I asked the tmobile rep and he responded that the plan is similar to the "web2go" plan. I have a nexus one with tzones and I popped in her sim card and it works fine. However, her sim card doesn't work in an iphone and an upsell page pops up saying to upgrade to web2go. My sim card however has no problems with the iphone since i have tzones. The question is now I'm doing research on whether it's safe to buy a used HD2 off craigslist that is tied to contract with warranty which means it's probably not unlocked. I read other threads saying that changing the APN to internet2.voicestream.com will work but they never clearly say that it will work with a locked HD2 as opposed to unlocked or bought internationally or full retail. I'd appreciate if anyone can give me advice. Thanks.

It's not a question features, it's a question of user experience.
