Easter Egg?

[trekkie1701c]

Roommate found this on his Optimus M, so looks like it might work for all the Optimus phones.

Open Root Explorer, open /system/sounds/lgdiag

Play the file "Aging.mp3"

wild. It's on the Optimus U, but not the unlocked Optimus One.

EDIT: I attached the file so everyone can check it out -- it's inside the .zip

Nice - thanks for showing me that location!

I went ahead and changed the PowerOn.mp3 in the /system/sounds/PowerOn folder

In case anyone wants it:

Samuel Jackson's quote from Snakes on a Plane!

Just unzip the mp3 - use Root Explorer to replace the existing one.

I'm slightly disturbed (first half of the MP3) and yet, extremely happy (last half of MP3)

Lol I found that while putting together the next version of my ROM and was extremely confused.

I fail how to see how this is considered an Easter Egg

You're kidding, right? It is an intentionally (presumably) hidden object within a program. That looks like it fits the definition to me.

Not kidding.
Perhaps if the song was titled "Optimus something", or "Android? something", then I would have agreed with the Easter Egg association.
Otherwise, I see no connection.

Google how Pixar does their easter eggs.
There are plenty in all of their films. From displaying past & present characters in the background, to using the Mac startup tone.
THOSE are easter eggs.

But maybe yall know something I don't?

We don't Know something you don't. If you read further down the wiki page for easter egg it says
"While computer-related Easter eggs are often found in software, occasionally they exist in hardware or firmware of certain devices. On some home computers, the BIOS ROM contains Easter eggs."
It also states it could be music, pictures, messages, or hidden menus.
A hidden track inside the framework of a phones firmware seems to fit the description.

I think you have a too narrow definition of an Easter Egg

Doesn't have to be something big that's themed for the device (heck, come to think of it, Hover wasn't Windows 95 themed), just has to be something stupid funny that devs toss in Besides, if they named it so that it was obvious, it wouldn't be that well hidden, would it?
