Take the 2-minute tour ×  Even with a set of headphones plugged
in, when I reboot my HTC Desire it (ironically) still plays the
'quietly brilliant' boot screen jingle loudly on the built-in
speaker.  This can be utterly annoying when lying in bed and the
handset needs a reboot as it invariably wakes up the wife.  Can
this be turned off or replaced?  share|improve this question add
comment  2 Answers  There's an app for, well, turning off the
sound on shutdown and then back on at startup. As I've got
Tasker I no longer use it, but you're looking for Silent Boot by
Anton Weber.  share|improve this answer With Silent Boot I still
can hear a very short part of the shutdown jingle (maybe a
couple of micro seconds before Silent Boot can deactivate the
sound). Tasker has a little longer and the first three notes of
the sound are played before it is muted. I'm a Tasker newbie and
used "Silent Mode On" for the "Device Shutdown" event. Is there
a more optimal way do do this? –  pesche Oct 16 '11 at 16:16 add
