[How to] Remove Boot Sound

---

EDIT: For those who have removed Nand protection as well as toast's root method, please follow these steps:

adb remount
rm SPC_animation_final.mp3

That's it!!
Enjoy your silent (and "sleeping-wife" friendly) reboots!


For those who have NOT removed Nand protection:

If for some bizarre reason you have only done toast's "step one" then do this instead:

adb shell

reboot recovery

Once you get to the red triangle/exclamation point screen, run the "recovery-windows.bat" (assuming you're running windows) by double clicking on it (I'm using Vista and did NOT need to "run as admin") and let it do it's thing. Since this opens another command prompt window, just minimize it and go back to the one you had open before, or start a new one. Now...

adb shell

mount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

Your system is now read/write!

cd /system/customize/resource/

rm SPC_animation_final.mp3

I changed the technique a bit. Check the first post.

I would love to get the first steps before your commands. I can reboot into recovery, Im just not sure how to enable r/w access, it says its read only.

adb shell
# mount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
# cd /system/app
# rm whatever.apk
# rm whatever.odex

Updated first post to get folks into R/W mode.

My girlfriend and I both thank you very much for this
