Welcome to Android Central. Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by startup sound? Does any sound work on your j3?

^ Welcome.

So far as I know, that is not optional, short of tinkering with the build prop. Is this a pre-owned device?

 

[Dani Riceab]

its a non rooted phone. And its not preowned

 

[belodion]

Okay. In that case, I'm afraid I don't know.

Welcome to the forums. As far as I know Samsung removed the boot sound in most devices after the Marshmallow update and you'd need root to get it back.

It still runs android 5.something.

I searched a little bit and it seems that having or not the boot sound depends on the carrier. Verizon phones don't have it and Boost/Virgin do.
