disable low battery alert sound

[yzingerr]

Is there any way to disable the low battery alert sound?
I hate it when I'm doing something and it goes buh-bup in my ear.
It always startles me when listening to music.. fn annoying!!

I haven't done this, but I believe the following should disable the sound.

In terminal:

su

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

mv /system/media/audio/ui/LowBattery.ogg /system/media/audio/ui/LowBattery.ogg.old

 

[yzingerr]

Thanks, can anyone confirm?

 

[doomedromance]

yeah that should work. You just have to rename/remove that soundfile then it won't play. Just like the camera/video shutter sounds. I think you have to be rooted, don't know if you can modifiy that from ADB, I've never used ADB

What happened, don't trust me?

 

[yzingerr]

Lol














Yes

I can't seem to make the command work. I am using android terminal emulator by jack palevich if it makes a difference.
Can you explain where the enter command goes inbetween commands.
I'm a newb to the terminal emus.

I edited my post, just hit enter after each line that I separated.

 

[yzingerr]

What happened, don't trust me?

I give up, thanks anyhow.
It says "system/media/...LowBattery.ogg" -read only file

 

[GideonX]

Did you run this line?

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

Usually if you get a read only error, it means you didn't mount it for writing.

 

[yzingerr]

Yes,i ran it exactly as you put it. Not sure what is wrong.

Do the spaces in the code matter?

I.e.

Mv /system
Mv/system

 

[yzingerr]

Here is the exact code as I put it


export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH
$ $ su
#mount -o remount,rw/dev/block/mtdblock4/system
Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory
# mv /system/media/audio/ui/LowBattery.ogg /system/media/audio/ui/LowBattery.ogg.old
failed on '/system/media/audio/ui/LowBattery.ogg' - Read-only file system
#

It looks like there should be a space in the line (see underscores)
mount -o remount,rw_/dev/block/mtdblock4_/system

However I am a random wanderer and might have mis-read this.

 

[yzingerr]

It still won't take, thanks for your persistent trying anyhow!!!

 

[GideonX]

Here are the spaces:

mount[space]-o[space]remount,rw[space]/dev/block/mtdblock4[space]/system

I just triple checked and this works.

 

[GideonX]

Your mv line looks fine btw

 

[yzingerr]

Does it give you some sort of confirmation when successful?

 

[GideonX]

Nope, just brings u back to the prompt.

If you're still having problems with getting it to work, I think you can also use root explorer to rename or delete the file.

That seems simple enough to work, where is the file located?

 

[KidFlash]

GideonX actually provided the location in his first post, it's in /system/media/audio/ui/LowBattery.ogg

 

[yzingerr]

Duh!

 

[GideonX]

You retried with the correct spacing and it still errors out? Root explorer might be an easier option then.

 

[yzingerr]

export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH
$ $su
#mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
# mv /system/media/audio/ui/lowbattery.ogg /system/media/audio/ui/lowbattery.ogg.old
failed on '/system/media/audio/ui/lowbattery.ogg' - No such file or directory

 

[GideonX]

You need to type exactly what I wrote.

LowBattery is not the same lowbattery.

Everything is cAsE seNsItiVE.
