[HOWTO] Change notification Sound - xda-developersUntil we have a working AOSP settings or a Custom rom notification sounds must be changed manually within the file system. To do this we must rename the default sound file to something else, then swap the notification file with the one we want.
Using Root Explorer or comparable file browser make your way to "/system/media/audio/notifications".
The default notification sound file is "OnTheHunt.ogg".
Rename this file to "OnTheHunt.ogg.old" and rename a different sound file to "OnTheHunt.ogg"
Enjoy!
FWIW I'm a big fan of BonkEncoder, which I guess is now called fre:ac audio converter:Thanks guys! This is so helpful. By the way, any idea where to download some "human voice" notification sounds?
Oh, kind of a minor footnote but: our NC is set up with two gmail accounts, and I noticed that if you go into settings and change the notification sound for one account, it has no effect on the other. So essentially our NC makes two different sounds when mail arrives, depending on whose account it is. It's like a nerd's dream come true.Anyone know how to have the default notification sound changed?
