Looking for the sound Cassiopeia that is in my FP3 but not in FP6

Help Fairphone 6

I have been trying very hard to find the Cassiopeia sound for my alarm sound. It’s been my trustworthy wake-up sound for 6 years in my FP3. I don’t see it in FP6. And I am also unable to find the sound file in my FP3. Does someone know how I can get this file?

I tried looking online and there are Cassiopeia files but they don’t seem to be the same sound as that in FP3.

Yes, the sounds have disappeared in some newer Android versions.

Try looking here, there’s a cassiopeia.ogg under ringtones: https://xdaforums.com/attachments/ringtones-signed-1-zip.651676/ .

If developer options, USB debugging on the phone and working with the command line on your computer are an option for you, you can pull the file from your FP3 via

adb pull /system/media/audio/ringtones/CASSIOPEIA.ogg

Yup, that’s not the same tone unfortunately.

Tried this and pulled the CASSIOPEIA.ogg file. But it’s a different sound. Weird.

I just had another look. On my FP3 there is no Cassiopeia in the list of tones for the alarm. It’s only in the list of general tones for notifications/calls.

Looking at the available alarm tones I see on my phone

> adb shell ls /system/media/audio/alarms
Alarm_Beep_01.ogg
Alarm_Beep_02.ogg
Alarm_Beep_03.ogg
Alarm_Buzzer.ogg
Alarm_Classic.ogg
Alarm_Rooster_02.ogg
Argon.ogg
Barium.ogg
Carbon.ogg
Helium.ogg
Krypton.ogg
Neon.ogg
Neptunium.ogg
Osmium.ogg
Oxygen.ogg
Platinum.ogg
Promethium.ogg
Scandium.ogg

Maybe you have a Cassiopeia file in that folder, too. In that case you’d need to pull from the “alarms” folder instead of “ringtones”.

I tried this as well. Nope the file isn’t there. Or rather not sure why it’s called Cassiopeia in my phone, but it sounds different to whatever CASSIOPEIA.ogg file I can find (on my phone or the internet).

I am sharing a recording of the tone (recording-2025-11-28-16-30-27), in case it rings (no pun) a bell for someone and it’s called something else.

Not sure how many alarm sounds there are on your device. For my 18 I’d probably pull them all to see if it’s one of them. Other than that I’m out of ideas.

Ok, the obvious maybe (because it wasn’t explicit so far): if it’s a custom alarm tone, it should be in the “Alarms” folder you can see in the Files app.

Thanks for the tip. I downloaded all the files and listened to each one. It turned out to be the one called Neon. No idea why it was called Cassiopeia in mine!
