I dont know if there is a better way to disable it but i igure, you could just override the sound file with just plain silence.

 

I imagine that you can only do this by installing a custom ROM, but who knows for sure. I certainly found the audio file that is used when starting up the LG Ally, though. It's at /system/sounds/poweron/PowerOn.mp3. If you access your phone through ADB or a Terminal Emulator on the phone while rooted, you can simply issue the command, "playmp3" and it will play the audio file as a test.

I tried renaming/moving the above file at its location, but even with root access, it won't let me. It says the directory is read-only anyway.

 

thats odd, i have rooted my phone and i used root explorer and overwrote the file with something else to play. works just fine, you just have to remember to mount r/w so you can write the file. dont forget to backup the original though.

 

lmao of course. I completely forgot about needing to mount in order to be able to modify. I'm still a bit new with Android. Thanks for that, x-amp.

 

no problem, im still figuring out things myself.

You can also simply remove the file. It's located in /system/sounds the file is named poweron.mp3
