Boot animation sound

[Grenex]

Is there any way to turn off the sound on the boot up screen?

+1 for embarrassing sounds when not seated with "droid enthusiasts"

I believe you need root access for that. Once rooted just delete /system/etc/poweron.wav

Can the phone be rooted after ED2 upate is installed?

Not yet, but the best in the biz are working on it!

I did find somewhere that it can be disabled, but for the life of me cannot figure out where it was. It might have been in some useless task killer that I tossed the day I got it. :-\

If you go into settings, then sound settings, click on Volume, and if you turn the System Volume all the way down it turns the power on/off sounds off but also turns off the click for selecting items

Thanks BlkWolf03! I happened to find this setting shortly before you post, but yes, that DOES silence the boot animation sounds.

I recommend a volume widget. You can control all 7 volume types easily.

Wisgetsoid is what I use. It has some other great widgets (clock, auto rotate, auto brightness, flashlight, etc.).

Sorry, meant all 6 volume types.

Nice. Thanks. Do you know where the powerdown chime is? I'd like to get rid of that, too. Would have been logical to also have it in /system/etc, but it isn't.

I wouldn't mind a much more sedate, professional power on animation, if anyone knows how to change it.
