Don't like the sound when phone starts with Apex

I still don't completely understand everything about rooting & ROM's, but I have a problem I am not sure how to fix or if there is anything I can do about it. I like the Apex ROM but it is so loud when the phone restarts. Is there a way to disable that? If not, how would I go about having my phone rooted & just use what the phone came with? My phone has randomly restarted a couple of times & it's usually in a public place. I'm hoping there is a way to silence it. Any suggestions?

 

I have asked 3 questions at droidforums in 7 months & NONE have gotten a reply...even though they have a couple hundred views. I don't know if I post in the wrong area or what the deal is, but obviously I am at the wrong forum to be asking any questions. I will stop coming here & find another forum.

 

I just saw the email where you replied. Thanks for your reply & sorry I was so confusing. Yes, I am rooted. I used z4root & have tried a couple roms & liked apex the best.. other than the sound being so loud at boot. I don't remember any of the others doing that. I have found another forum that says you can use root explorer & delete apex.mp3 to stop it. So, that's what I am going to try to do to see if that works. Thanks again.

 

That's where some of my lack of knowledge kicks in. LOL I have no idea if I can change boot animations. I downloaded root explorer to my phone but when I tried to delete the apex file as they described, it wouldn't let me because it is a read only file. So, I'm off to search some more. I will reply in here when (& if) I find something that works.

 

I found a way to fix it. yay!!

Open terminal emulator

type & enter:su
type & enter:apextoolbox

then go to "goodies" > toggle boot animation > disable THX sound
Thanks for your time & help. Rhonda
