Disable Startup Sound

[FishFan]

Hi there. I got my GP2X about two weeks ago.

Is there some way to disable/remove the startup sound each time you turn it on? <_<

Thanks for any advice

You can reflash the startup sound with a silent version.

Have a look here:

EDIT: And the author just beat me to it!

i have also the silent soundfile but GPH should make an option to just disable the sound. This must be not so difficult to implement.

I was going to replace mine until I realised just how annoying my gf found it. Now I suddenly love the default sound.

Yep, it should be this but I don't think I can change it without updating the file.

I might just try redirecting the bad link to the proper one

Yeah, well, but I can do that
And I did that

Flashing *anything* but a wav file with the correct parameters will cause the GP2X to not play the sound. You could, therefore, use an empty text file renamed as gp2xsound.wav if you wanted to.

I put the silence on the other day because I kept waking my wife up starting my 2x in bed

Parkydr made me laugh about the ratings - "is it too silent or not silent enough" :lol: :lol: :lol:

I would'nt recommend it

BTW - the start up sound was just enough silence for my wife

Happy Days (and nights!)
