Any luck on the charge boot with sound?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
Unfortunately - no luck. All queries have lead to the stock set up which (soft bricks the fascinate) - If there was way to hack the qmg/qmp files then we would be golden..

Still looking..

Contains boot sound (PowerOn.wav) if kernel supports it... enjoy - or not.:eek:

Have you already checked this thread out? post 28 has a flashable that works on the epic?

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
That is the link I supplied previously and it soft bricked DarthCivicus's phone.. My guess is that it may be related to the kernel he was running or the fascinate will not run the qmp files as compressed..

The mounts are the same as the fascinate so it should work given you have a kernel that supports it... I have been looking for the simple bootanimation.zip file that will work with any custom kernel..

Can you provide the Dolby Countdown with a black background in place of the white background at the end of the boot? Any boot with a bright background never good especially in the dark.

Plus it would make the animation more complete.

Keep me fascinated.

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
You can disassemble the boot animation and copy the bootanimation.zip file to your data/local directory and it should work.

The mount addresses and CWM version associated with M7 and MIUI will not allow the install scripts to work to flash these files to your phone ,, it is back to the copy and paste method.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
Here is a link to an append version of that boot...you will have to copy and past the bootanimation.zip file to your data/local directory for it to work. The installer scripts are not liking the new CWM and the mounts are different for CM7 and MIUI.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] RainesX:
If im on latest cwm, do i then have to convert 2.xxx and 3.xxx zips to 4.xxx?

and if i have to convert do i just copy the system\media\bootanimation.zip from the 2.xxx to the 4.xxxready zip?

Love this tread :)

im on the dolby black right now and loving it :D

Great work!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
I do know that some people have had problems getting these scripts to run on CWM 4.. and I have suggested that they just remove the bootanimation.zip file and copy to the system/media or data/local locations...

If I had the time I would start the process of re-scripting the files but have been very busy..

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] sarda74:
Awesome collection, JaeKar99. I have just tried the Clock Gears III on my Dinc and it looks fantastic. I noticed a quick white flash between cycles, but I fixed it by removing the file photothumb.db from the folder part0 inside bootanimation.zip. Not sure if this is also an issue on other phones, just thought of letting you know in case others ask. Great work again, thanks.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
Hmmm.. That is odd. I have not seen that file in any of the other boots and when I pulled the boot from the file sharing service.. no .db file present...

Glad you got it working.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] sarda74:
The .db file has the Hidden attribute set, and maybe this is why you cannot see it.

Get rid of that stupid "android" boot animation

I've looked all over and now I'm just tired and frustrated, so I'm hoping someone here will actually help me instead of just telling my I've posted on the wrong thread.

I want to use the default Samsung boot animation without having that stupid "android" text display over top of it whenever I reboot my phone. can anyone point me to a step by step guide that will get rid of the annoying "android" text and just let me have my normal boot animation back?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
What ROM kernel are you using.. Typically that kind of effect takes place when you have a stock kernel running a bootanimation.zip file..

To fix the issue you delete the bootanimation.zip file in the system/media folder..

and then copy these two files:

bootsamsung.qmg

bootsamsungloop.qmg

into the system/media folder...

That should tell the stock kernel to play the stock boot files.

These are ED01 Stock Boot files.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
Ahhh, found it. Fixed. Thanks for the spot.. I was able to detect it in at least two other boots that I made. I think that one of the graphics editing program is leaving that file as a side effect.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jonny68:
I can confirm at least 5 of these animations work on the Galaxy S2.

miui issue

ive tried every file location talked about in here and no matter what i do, it always uses the boot animation selected in the theme manager. im on 1.7.22 using the glitch kernel. im being greedy, these animations are better than almost all the miui ones, but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] akellar:
Miui uses it's own system for tweaks. There's probably a way to get these to work (change .zip to .mtz and place in miui themed folder maybe?) but you can't just flash it.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Yutraya:
Miui issue solved

thank you for the quick response akellar! after continuosly searching around through folders, i found the right location, /data/system/theme/boots. after that it was just as JaeKar99 said, drop in the bootanimation.zip and done. just took awhile to sift through the folders. thanx for the help!

BUT there is any possibilities to change this ****ing samsung boot music ?!

Thanks a lot for your answers x)

Kiwa21
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
Are you talking about changing the boot sounds? That is usually associated with a file called "PowerOn.wav" in system/etc directory.. changing it is easy:

Startup sound:

1) DL a new sound file. There are a lot of sites on the Internet that will provide free access to many sounds. Freesound is one of them. Registration is required for download. Downloads are in an .aif format.. That will require a file converter (good to have for shutdowns and other sound file modifications).... I prefer Spesoft Audio Converter. Not a lot of bells and whistles, but gets the job done. You can use Winamp+ also.

2) Convert to a .wav file. It may need to be renamed to PowerOn.wav. This is done easier on the computer.

3) Put PowerOn.wave on SD card

4) Open Root Explorer or Super Manager

5) Navigate to /system/etc

6) Rename "PowerOn.wav" to "PowerOn.wav.old" (In the case of some custom ROMS there may not be any PowerOn.wav)

7) Navigate to where you placed the DL'ed .wav file on the sdcard

8) Copy

9) Navigate back to /system/etc folder paste

Hope that helps..

The kernels I run on my fascinate currently do not support PowerOn.wav.

Oh thanks a lot , i didn't know where to search for !

Just rooted my phone Friday and desperately want to change boot and shut down

Hi Guys. So I took the plunge into rooting this weekend and have leaned how to do a ton but I can not get either custom boot animations or custom shutdowns to work. I am running gingerbread powerwashed with kernel 2.6.35.7. So my first question is can they be changed with this kernel? I chose this rom because it was said to be a stable build that is good for noobs. I first tried evil fascinate but it seemed to be based off an older os so I switched. If custom boots and shutdown are not possible with my rom, can anybody suggest a for the most part stable alternative?

Cheers.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
I am not certain which kernel you are operating but if you are using PowerWashed with the OTBFusion kernel you should have boot animations operational..

If you installed the PowerWashed ROM with no kernel you are running a stock kernel and it will not accommodate the bootanimation.zip file.. or the shutdown sequences unless they are qmg formated.. not currently possible.

Do you currently have a boot animation or shutdown stock animation working?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] v00du:
Yes the stock animations are present and I did see some .qmg files in the media folder. It is sounding like I do have a stock kernel. As I am extremely new to this whole process I thought that the kernel changed along with the Rom. So can I flash any kernel to my Rom? If yes, would you recommend the OTBFusion? Or is it best for me to just find a different version of gingerbread powerwashed that has OTBFusion?

While I am here I may as well ask, in your opinion is there a better Rom available (Community maybe) that is stable enough for somebody just starting out to be able to work with?

Thank you.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] wessiide:
Jaekar sir when you say flash in any cwm does that include cm7 mtd? Sorry if this was already answered don't have time to read thru whole thread and unzipping and pasting in appropriate folder hasn't yielded me any success so a flashable cm7 versions are all I can work with thanks sir! Great work!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
The flash script for CM7 and MIUI is different from the typical CWM (2.x or 3.x) flash script - the memory mount is different. I think over time I have become a bit lazy in my descriptions.. and it is hard to keep up with Clockwork versions.. I have not adapted to the versions:

CM7 Installs are for CM7 and MIUI Clockwork versions

CWM 2.x and up or any CWM is for Clockwork 2.x and 3.x versions.

---------- Post added at 05:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 AM ----------

I was able to run OTBFusion for a while but it crashed my camera.. I have been running imnuts 08/08 for some time and it is working very well.. You have to mix and match what you want for ROM/kernel options.. I would suggest trying a new kernel when you do opt for a new kernel you will need to delete the qmg files to stop the stock boot from playing over the new boot..
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] v00du:
Great Thank you. I will look for a source for imnuts 08/08 and some installation instructions and give that a shot.

How to Change

Hi there, Im newbie for this forum...

I came from Indonesia...

I'm using ACER Liquid Mini...

How Can I change Boot Animation on my device...

Thank U...

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
I am unfamiliar with that device.. I might suggest checking the forums for the appropriate threads - Acer A1: Liquid S100 - is the closest approximation I can find on XDA..
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] azok79:
I must be doing something wrong. I downloaded LiquidHC-Edify and put the zip folder on my SD card, booted into recovery/install zip from sdcard/choose zip from sdcard/LiquidHC-Edify/install. Then I get "Install from sdcard complete, but in reboot, it's the same old boot screen.

Running PowerWashed GB on Fascinate
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
It has installed the "bootanimation.zip" file to the system/media directory.. unfortunately EH09 ROMs are still running the stock kernel. That does not support the bootanimation.zip file format.. It will only run the stock qmg files that are located in the system/media folder.

Until you are running a custom kernel the boots listed in this thread will not run on that ROM.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] xxampdxfatalxx:
moved the zip file from SD card to system/media file and changed the name of that zip to bootanimation.zip. it still is not working. is there something I have to do to get it working?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
The zip files that I have posted are designed to be flashed via Clockwork (Edify or CM7 versions), or imported by the theme manager in MIUI..

Place the downloaded file on your sdcard - boot into recovery and select zip to install from sdcard.. find the file and install.. presto.

Changing the name to bootanimation.zip and placing it in the system/media folder will do nothing.

You can extract the bootanimation.zip file from the file you have downloaded and copy it to the system/media folder and you will get results.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] zash1:
tried everyway possible to install

Android Zapps Apple (side on) Boot Animaton.....................

it just anint gonna happen with my fascinate running PWGB and Red CWM.

CWM says it installed it but nothing is different on phone..

I manually placed the bootanimatin.zip in /system/media folder.

I renamed the current running bootanimation.zip to OLDbootanimation.zip...

I also tried removing the OLDbootanimation.zip from /system/media folder....

I had troulble at first getting the zip into the /system/media folder but crash coursed myself on some linux and terminal emulator.

I changed the permissions to 0777 which were 0755 and got the zip in the /system/media folder but like I said.... 3 to 4 days playing with this to no avail.

WHAT COULD I POSSIBLY BE MISSING HERE?

my noobie guess is that the phone boots up pulling the animation file from somewhere other that the /root/system/media folder....
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] shorttripp86:
Thanks for posting a zipped up version of the prime boot animation!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
PWGB ROM will not play bootanimation.zip files

Unfortunately: It is the ROM you are running. PWGB only has a stock kernel - Stock kernels do not run bootanimation.zip files.

The stock kernel is looking to play the qmg files that are located in the system/media folder. Deleting those will not get the bootanimation.zip file to play. The system will then default to the landscaped ANDROID built into the system.. and that is where it will stay until the qmg files are returned or you restore a backup.

Until you flash a custom kernel for that ROM the bootanimation.zip files will not work.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jholt1234:
I am having the same problem. I tried changing the bootanimation after I flashed leanKernel: minimalistic kernel (v1.4.0 10/9/11). To my understanding this kernel allows the changing of bootanimations. Any suggestions on why it's not working?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
If that is the case then you can remove the qmg files from the system/media folder and that should allow for the boot file to play... If this does not work I am at a loss.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jholt1234:
Tried renaming and removing...just get the stock android animation. I have searched other forums and can't find out why it won't change.:(
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
Look in the folder data/local and see if there is a bootanimation.zip file there.. Android will play what is in that folder first (before system/media).. in the off chance the dev put it there.

I am downloading the ROM now and will pull it apart to see where the boot may be located..
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
I have been following the kernel thread and have noted that some others are having the same issue. Here is a possible fix copied verbatim from another poster: skiddingus

""Try this...I had trouble too. Put the two original boot animation qmg files back into the system/media folder if they are not there. Also put the original bootanimation.zip file back into the system/bin folder if you had removed it. Put your new animation file into the system/media folder and name it bootanimation.zip. At this point everything should be stock except the added file in the system/media folder. Reboot at least once. Then shut down and pull the battery one time. Reboot 2 times and it should work. I fought this problem for days with no luck and when I pulled the battery for another reason, the animation started working on the second reboot.""

I have not run this ROM or this kernel so cannot validate that this will work. It did for one person. It may work for you.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jholt1234:
Thanks for helping with this...I did try the method above and it did not work for me. There was no bootanimation.zip in data/local.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] JaeKar99:
Okay GB users here is a thread that may help -> Found this post - Which lead me to this thread

Linked to this thread: I9003][MOD]Custom Boot Animation[XXKP9 + XXKPE]

After completing each part of the instalation of the files listed in the mod listed above you should then be able to copy the "bootanimation.zip" (contained in the boots I have put up) file be renamed to "sanim.zip" then be pasted in the system/media folder..

This is the best option that I can offer given when I can find in the forums. Sorry I could not come up with an easier fix..
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jholt1234:
Followed the instructions...easy to do...and now I can FINALLY change my boot animation!!! Thanks for your help!
