RE: ZTE Radiant 740 Is there a way to turn off the AT&T start up tune when first turn on the phone other than just turning off the sound when shutting it down?

Re: Turn off startup tune

I'm almost certain this would require you to be rooted and go in and delete the startup sound file.

Re: Turn off startup tune

I am not sure how to do that. Would there be any instructions I can link to?

I use an app called "Android Assistant", it's a suite of functions and one of them is a startup manager that allows for silent startup and shutdown. I don't have to be rooted for that function on my Bionic.

Thanks for recommending this. Love it when the community steps in and comes up with a solution :D

So I had the same question wanting to turn that very LOUD start up tune. Saw the answer about the Android Assistant. But which of the start up choices do you pick to get a silent start up?

Open Android Assistant, then tap the settings button (wrench icon). The silent startup option is there.

I'm baaaccckkk! I followed the instructions, chose silent startup option but that annoying, very loud start up music still happens. What am I doing wrong?

Hard for me to guess since I'm not familiar with that particular phone. It may have something to do with the OS not letting Android Assistant access the volume control. You may want to try emailing the developer.

Bummer! Okay thanks for trying. :)
