Shutting off the sound of the phone booting up
how do you shut off the music when booting up the phone
...
would love to know this too. I'd hate to have to restart my phone in a meeting and have it blurt out. Anybody?
I'll post back if I figure this out.
...
it needs to be done thru a registery hack
go to qusers.com and read the treads. i'm sure someone will come up with a hack.
it doesnt really bother me as i dont reboot very often.
it does suck though... very loud.
...
I used the file manager to find "piano.wav"
renamed it to pianoold.wav. Transferred a more appealing sound to the windows directory and renamed it piano.wav and rebooted.
Everything worked fine and I have a nicer startup sound now.
All without hacking the registry. đ
...
BTW - thanks to the others for tracking down what the startup sound was called. That pretty much made it simple after that.
Also try not to substitute a wav that is too long/different from the original piano.wav because you may have problems with that.
...
Anyone know why when I try this I get the file is "either read only or You do not have permissions"??? âšī¸

There is a hack to get rid of this sound completley and a lot of the other sounds that are very annoying, such as the camera shutter or the Txt message sent screen. Check out www.freewebs.com/smartq as they have a large lost of hacks and tweaks that can be used for the Q.
