Help How to change "water drip" keytone sound when dialing phone?

[menmyjeep]

I am looking for a way to change the water dripping sound when you press each key when dialing phone. I don't want to just silence the sound. I want a keytone sound, just not the water drip sound. I really don't like that sound. Does anyone know how to change it?

I'd love to be able to do that as well!

If you install ExDialer app it will give you the keytone sound. I had to uninstall ExDialer though because I use Nova Prime Launcher with their notifier plugin and it wouldn't notify me with the little red circle next to the phone app when I had a missed call, it only applies that notification to the native phone app. But ExDialer was a MUCH faster smoother interface than the native dialer is. I have a TON of lag in the native dialer, so much so that I might give up the Note 2

If you can get a sound file that you like, name it "Dialer_New", and copy to this folder:

What program or app is that?

Estrong's File Explorer...problem is, you may need to be rooted, or have "superuser" permissions, to alter the file(s).

That's correct! I just tried it and it will not let me add, delete, edit anything at that directory. Thanks for trying though. Great idea.

Thanks! I'm actually on the verge of rooting my phone. Mainly to be able to use a ps3 controller via bluetooth as well as map the games to the controller. Also, to remove or freeze the Bloatware on my phone. Don't want to run a custom rom right now.

Where do you find the notifier plugin? I'm using Nova Launcher now but can't find it.

Where is a good place to find a new sound for the water drip?

Disregard both of my questions.

I managed to change my sound using the following post from another forum:

Anyone else find the standard water drop noise really annoying? I certainly do.

To change the sounds you need to replace the files TW_Touch.ogg and S_HW_Touch.ogg with something more to your taste.
Here are modified files that replace the 'doink' with simple click, as it was with the S2.

Put them in system/media/audio/ui you need root and a root browser.

I have to admit though. I find it staggering that Samsung dont have the regular keypad tone on the phone.

It's called Tesla Unread, it's part of Nova Launcher. You might have to install Nova Prime the paid version to run Tesla Unread. It works great for missed texts, missed Gmail, and Missed calls.

I see how you are suppose to change the file name... but the folder will not let me change or paste any new sounds into the ui folder cause it says read only. I am using root explorer.

You need to enable R/W for that folder in Root Explorer.

Man, I couldn't agree with you more! Very annoying.

On my S5:
I changed those and Dialer_new.ogg also - and still get the water drop on my dial pad.

Any other ideas?

Actually I replaced all .ogg files that had a water drok like sound in the /system/media/audio/ui directory and rebooted and still have the water drop dialer sound
