How to Disable the Screen Lock Sound on the Samsung Galaxy On5

The Samsung Galaxy On5 can provide feedback to you in the form of sounds or vibrations to let you know that something has occurred on the device. One area where you may have noticed this is when you manually lock your phone. There is a faint sound that plays to let you know that you have enabled the lock screen.

This sound is not mandatory, however, and you can disable it if you so choose. Our tutorial below will show you how to do this.
