Help How to adjust the roaming identification sound?

[civicmon]

Hi everyone,

I just got the Moment and I like it so far, but for the love of God I can't figure out how to turn the sound off when my phone goes out of service. Where can I find this!?

I live in an area with poor cell service (I knew this and I hate talking on my phone) and just want the noise shut off. I don't need a stupid beep to tell me that it's outta service. It's driving me nuts. Please help!!

Thanks in advance.

I second this request. I have poor coverage at work, in a basement. This notification goes off all the time...getting kind of annoying.

Any and all help appreciated. TIA

Someone should answer soon. If not I will later when I get the phone in my hands!!!

According to the user's guide the only sound settings are under

Menu>Settings>sound and displays>notifcation ringtone.

Possibly there is something under roaming at

Menu>Settings>Wireless Controls> Mobile Netowrks

An turn off call guard.

That May Work!

Does anyone know if this "fix" resolved this issue?

 

[Warlock]

The call guard setting did not work. I already turned this off and I still get the notification when I "lose" signal and reconnect.

The notifications ringtone is different than the loss of signal and reconnect ringtone. So disabling this will not change/disable this specific notification.

I haven't found anyplace to turn this off yet...

Would. also like to see a possible solution to this. Any updates?

This problem will force me to return my Moment. Is there a fix?

 

[zippy]

There is no fix that I have found, and agree on this annoyance. CL14 does not address this either. I would've hoped someone could have id'd the sound file (name) which then could be replaced with a silent file, but no luck yet.

Where or to whom shoud I go to get this problem fixed?

I literally have to shut my phone off when I'm in a store because it goes in and out so much it's embarrassing!

This is not a Moment thing. All Android phones have the same issue. It's really amusing to be in a Subway car and hear the tone comming from several Android devices, almost like they're talking to each other. I'm guessing that the people at Google who design the OS never go out of cell signal range. Other than the lame update proceedure for this phone, this is the most annoying bug (feature?).

i have my phone on vibrate all the time, so i haven't heard this in/out of service sound; nor do i know what it sounds like...

i'm looking under (rooted phone) system > media > audio and see the following folders

UI
Alarms
Notifications
Ringtones

and don't see anything that's obviously the notification... i'm sure if we can find the sound file, we can replace it with a no sound file...

To solve the problem of it notifying you multiple times within the day instead of turning your phone off and on all the time just put it into airplane mode which takes about 2 second vs. taking minutes to restore the again when you turn it back on.

Also with it going in and out of service it is looking for service the whole tome which uses battery life fast.

Is there any listing in the UI folder? Seems that would have the logical files? Wondering if I recreate that folder and name a silent file to the exact name of the tones, if it would work?

edit: does anyone have a logcat of when they go in and out of service?

Hi, anyone found an answer to this? I don't mind the sound so much as the notification will turn on my screen and then it stays on and drains the battery!!

Settings > wireless and networks > mobile settings > and it will have cut off roaming sound check mark or what ever
