battery dying sound file
 

I wanted to ask a favour:) I wondered if anyoen could possibly upload or point me in the direction of a location I can get the battery dying sound on the N900? I love the sound and want to use it elsewhere! (Strange request I know:p)

Thanks!!

I would like to know too.

Not that I like it mind, I just find that sodding sorry sounding Dong far too depressing. It's as if my phone giving up giving up hope of life.

It would be nice to hear it go ding for a change :)

Re: battery dying sound file
 

Is it legal to distribute the sound files? If so I could put them on my webserver.


Edit:
Sounds are stored in : /usr/share/sounds

Always thought that alert sounded like a depressed pigeon. If the battery does give out you get that sound followed by a loud beep as the phone shuts down.
Scares the cr@p outa me every time.

Not sure but I cant imagine it being an issue it being open source and an old release. If anyone with an N900 wants to upload it or wetransfer it that would be amazing..:)

Just put in xterm:
And you'll find the sound file on your N900 with the file explorer.

Re: battery dying sound file
 

Like others on this thread, I thought this thread was about how to change the 'I'm dieing' sound. Can it be done and how would it be done? Can just about use x term.

Your question was basically answered by Zas, who pointed to the location and file. With that information and a little bit of googling, you could have solved this yourself. ;)

You'll need to be root to do anything usefull (or sudo), so make sure you have rootsh installed.

You can see the file by going to

and ls for ui-battery_low.wav ("ls" gives you a directory listing, like "dir" in dos)

Make a backup of the file by issuing the following command:

Assuming the file you want to use as a replacement is located in MyDocs (the n900 folder on your phone's file explorer), issue the following (where your replace the name of your file with the appropriate name) command: Again, you must be root.
