Thanks for sharing. Nice job.

I already had this bootlogo without the "Star Wars" and "Android" logo's, which I like better. So I switched back to the plain R2.

If anyone wants it, shout out, i'll try to include a link (forum rules don't allow me to include links yet ;-(

April 17, 2012

berq219's animation is better looking than the original after all. Just had to get used to it.

I made it cwm flashable and added sound to it.

StarWars+Droid+R2D2 is here to stay !
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
Yepp, Ive seen that one on the forums as well, but couldnt see this one so decided to share. If you want, I can include that one in the first post with your link. (Give me a pm) I'll include your name there of course :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
Added preview =) Those GIFs run in row in the animation!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jontr:
brilliant stuff!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ryadboss:
I can not install it with a cmw:

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update...

Installation Aborted :confused:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
Its not a cwm zip. Use a root explorer and paste the bootanimation.zip into system/media
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ryadboss:
Workinnngg ! Good job ! thanks man
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Techn1cian:
Great! Thank you!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
No problem :D Happy to hear that it worked.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Innergebirgler:
Thanks a lot Mate.

The best bootanimation on my Galaxy S2 so far.

I love R2D2

:D:D:D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
No problem and we all love R2D2 :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Techn1cian:
What about Star Wars sound for this bootanimation? :)

it will be perfect at all! :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sgs2.5:
I'm working on CWM5 versions of R2 because I got sick of moving files around myself. I just got em working (2.50AM) :D

I'll probably post em here tomorrow. One of them has sound, although I can't test that (my rom or kernel whatev thingie doesn't support boot sound ;-(

---------- Post added at 03:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:57 AM ----------

btw. It would be nice if someone could hack a .wav file together with some SW music, R2 and android sound to go with the 'Droid+StarWars+R2' animation.

Done! look in my next post or in the first one. (first one still needs to be updated by berq219)

R2D2 in CWM5 flashable format

Here we go,

I made some CWM5 packages for the Samsung Galaxy S2 (flashable with ROM

Manager) with the original R2D2 bootanimations in them. I can't test the one

with sound because my rom doesn't support it.

Flash at own risk. Make a full backup first, do whatever you must do not to loose whatever is on your phone! Don't complain to me if you mess up your phone! You rooted it :p

The animations are copied to /data/local/ which overrules the one you might have in

/system/data/ . A logo in /system/data/ (for instance a pink aokp pony ;-)

remains untouched.

The bootsound (where applicable) is copied to /system/etc/ and overwrites an

old one if it's there. If you wanna loose the sound. simply delete PowerOn.wav from /system/etc/.

The ´no sound´ versions don´t remove or overwrite PowerOn.wav if it´s already present.

Oh,, flash them 'certificate verification' OFF. Inserting a valid certificate scks blls, so I didn't.

R2D2 animation (no sound): beep

R2D2 animation (with R2 sound!): beep

StarWars logo+Droid logo+R2D2 animation (no sound): beep

@berq219 : Can you copy the links to the first page? Tx mate! :cool:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sakispaok:
wow thanks a lot. ilove that bootanimation an now i'm waiting for the sound version

thanks
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] shlam:
Nice boot-animation.

thanks so much!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Hanvir:
I can't seem to get it working. My process is downloading the .zip straight to my s2 the using Astro to move it to system/media. Ive even tried deleting the old one. Help anyone
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sgs2.5:
The animations above were made to flash with Rom Manager by ClockworkMod (cwm) <-- Play Store link

The single bootanimation.zip by berg219 (at the end of msg #1) must be copied manually to /system/media/ or /data/local/

Hope to have been of help.

---------- Post added at 07:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 PM ----------

If someone could make a good .wav file to go with the 'Droid+StarWars+R2' version, i'll bake a Rom Manager/Clockworkmod (cwm) version with the sound in it.

There is one with sound, although the sound might not work on some roms/kernels.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
Yup he is totally right =) If you re gonna do it through the Astro, then download the bootanimation.zip file in the first post under the Attached Files, then copy it to system/media! Give me a negative feedback if you cant get it to work =)

Also, added sgs2.5 's post to the 1st post! =) CWM files now available!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sgs2.5:
OK, by popular request;

StarWars+Droid+R2D2+sound <-- thats the link

Flash with ClockworkMod's Rom Manager.

NO wipe, NO clear, NO nothing, just flash (be sure to turn OFF "certificate checking"...)

It has Darth breathing during the logo's (berq219 came up with that idea), followed by R2 beeping and squeeking.

My phone/rom does not support boot sound, so please let me know if you hear anything :eek: !

Flashing "StarWars+Droid+R2D2+sound" should look something like this;

​

(i know, the 'screenshot' scks blls)
​
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
Added this one we came up with to the first post as well. :O We need feedback though, since we both use Hydrogenics. No bootanim sound supported there
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sgs2.5:
I just flashed a backup from about a year ago. A Sammy Rom with some rooted userland kernel ;-)

The Vader+R2 sound worked like a charm, but now the bootanimation wouldn't show. It was a rom with an original Sammy .qmg (or something like that) bootanimation, it probably didn't support the bootanimation.zip format (tried it in /system/media/ and /data/local/) :confused:

Whatever, it didn't brick my phone AND now i've heard the boot sound. Frack the original sammy crap. :p

Happy flashing!

and yeah, please feed us !
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] drognan86:
awesome bootanimation mate thank you
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sgs2.5:
you're welcome !

animation + sound ? please let us know !
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
No problem =) Positive feedback makes me happy =)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] blu3angel:
Running custom rom with siyah latest kernel.. Got bootanimation but no sound.. Check the system/etc folder the poweron wav file is there but wondering why no sound.. Check the permission too seems to be ok.. No sound.. :(

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
Its not the animations error. Some ROMs just dont enable boot sounds. For example; Hydrogen.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Hanvir:
Thanks

This animation is great and worked after flashing it.

I tried it both with the sound and without but the sound didn't play (only the default sound played)

Thanks a bunch, though
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
As I mentioned above the credits go to sgs2.5 for the snounded one, cant check it since my ROM doesnt supported bootanim but as far as I heard, it works :D and thanks for the compliment.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] s2dh:
any chance of having a preview?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:

works great in vk rom + siyah...thx :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ivanoalbergo@gmail.com:
I flashed now and i must say that is very kind.

On vk rom wark very well thanks mate
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
You re very welcome :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
For those who couldnt get the sound to run, rename the PowerOn.wav file in system/etc to PowerOn.ogg :D Works for me now on ics 4.0.3
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] lambik333:
can't get it working after rename the file:confused: i'm on Dragon ICS Rom 2.4
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
I'm not sure about AOKP ROMs. When I was on Hydrogenics I couldnt get any bootanimation sound to work. I'm on Neat ROM and it works like a charm ^^
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] samgu:
Awesome dude!!! I am also using Neat and it's working great. But is it your sound working?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] samgu:
Sorry Bro. I figured out myself: just renamed as suggested above and now works like a charm!!!!!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] samgu:
Works in NEAT rom!!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
Thanks for the positive feedback sir :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sgs2.5:
got the sound working on ICS ! (Hydrog3nICS AOKP rom anyway)

Ok, i finally figured out how to get boot sound with the NetChip kernel + Hydrog3nICS. This will probably work in more ICS versions.

The trick is to place boot_audio.mp3 in /system/media/

I tested this on the Hydrog3n 5/5 rom. it'll probably work on older versions + other ics roms as well.

>> get your ICS R2D2 here << (or in the first post once that's updated)

(don't forget to press the "Thanks" button ;-)​
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
Sound and the bootanim works for most of the devices now thanks to sgs2.5! Hydrogen-Ics and the AOKP ROMs are supported now as well. Feel free to ask away if you encounter any problems!

VOLUME FIX for BOOTANIMATION(sound) ;-)

to crank up the volume a little during boot do the following;

edit the file "build.prop" in /system/ (set system to r/w before editing)

add or alter the following setting/line ;

persist.sys.boot_volume=100

save the file and reboot your phone :D

my phont is with cm9-20120507,i flashed in the Flash_this_one_with_CWM_Bootanimation_Complete_with_sound_TVW file.but no sound.

so i change PowerOn.war to PowerOn.ogg ,but still not work.can you tell me why?

thank you.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
You should flash	"AOKP-Hydrogen CWM Complete with Sound.zip" file.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dawolf85:

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] TomV8:
How can I enable sound in D4rom? I tried both /system/etc and system/media but it doesn't work. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
Yup you should flash the zip file named as "AOKP-Hydrogen CWM Complete with Sound.zip" vie CWM. Dont forget giving a feedback =)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] TomV8:
Thank you for the reply, but I still don't have any sound... Maybe D4 doesn't support boot sound :(
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:
Some ROMs have different bootanimation sound locations as far as I observed. Your ROMs dev might have disabled the option as well. If none of the methods worked, D4 might not be supporting it =)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Angyann94:
Very good Bootanimation thanks.

Have fun ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] berq219:

Great Boot bro I just wish I could get the sound louder in Ressurection Remix Rom. Supposedly it is a bug with AOKP for a long time now. I do hear sound it is just as silent as a mouse fart. Great, great animation man and star wars has been my favorite for ages.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] simmostrikes:
Great post, worked straight up.

Please note I have stock 4.0.3 but didn't have a boot zip file in my media folder, once I put this in the folder though it worked.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] keeb119:
I just got off the phone with vzw about my RAZR dropping data randomly. If your having this problem just download the restore connectivity app. And the tech support guy said that ics is supposed to be released in a couple of weeks but I have my salt ready.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] torikorocks:
Good news yeah I have my doubts too. Ill try that app out maybe it'll help
[Motorola Droid RAZR] nrvous1:
Just downloaded and restarted my phone hoping this works. I am so frustrated with losing all data connection when I need it the most while my wife's maxx never drops 4g.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keeb119:
didnt want to start a new thread, but my phone after the latest update keeps dropping data and im fed up with it. this is the third razr ive had. one for hardware, one for a couple areas of dead pixels or groups of pixels, now my phone wont stay connected to data, just randomly dropping data and then picking it back up. ive had to call customer support three times for it, this time i had to boot it into safe mode, and now get to play the waiting game. ive heard people on here rave about the motorola antennas, but ive yet to be impressed. As far as i can tell thisphone is a complete peace of crap. And verizon support hasnt done anything to fix it. I used to rave about verizons technical support, now it feels like they dont care. After my contract is up bye bye verizon. Bye bye motorola. I would cancel right now and just use my vita with skype as a phone, but i got apps i would miss. Ive had palm pres that have had way better hardware design and build quality then this piece of ****.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MillionManMosh:
I've had four LTE phones now and the data issues existed on all of them but have gotten less noticeable with each passing month (the Droid Charge was a nightmare until the day I got rid of it, though). People treating it as a phone issue cost warranty support money and wastes time- what you need is a network technician, not a refurbished phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keeb119:
At this point i need a new phone. Ive installed the useless restore connectivity app, tried removing and reinstalling my sim card, and now im running it in safe mode, all verizon ideas from customer support, and except for safe mode cuz ive not had the time, have failed. Im running bone stock non root and cant get anywhere with technicians. As ive said, my phone drops data and then a minute later picks it back up. The latest customer support person thought itmight be a roamong issue, evn though it happens when im not moving, as far as i can tell.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MillionManMosh:
First, what's your signal strength? Anything under ~-95dBm isn't enough to maintain a reliable LTE connection. It'll connect but it will occasionally lose it. This tends to waste battery, as well. When they started rolling out LTE I was on the fringe of the coverage area, but they've updated a few of their towers since then. I will still lose data when driving through certain parts of town, but it reconnects quickly.

As far as the roaming issues go, that's a simple one to rule out. Call back and ask what your PRL should be. If it doesn't match the one in your About screen in Settings, turn the phone off, pull the SIM, power on, and shut down and put it back in- it should update. Doesn't make much of a difference in most circumstances, and the phone is supposed to update it automatically on every boot, but it's worth a try.

If you really just want a replacement phone without any more tech support BS, tell them the phone is overheating and rebooting. They'll tell you to take it into the store, where they will check for water damage and then order you a new phone without any further questions. You could also request to be transferred to Tier 2-- they're the ones that know what they're talking about (generally).

Also, if you have the same issue with 3 different phones, it's policy to offer you a switch to a different model (or an early upgrade, depending on what your contract dates look like) under most circumstances. I will tell you that whatever issues you've been having, if you want a 4G phone, there is no better current combination than Motorola and Verizon. I've seen the alternatives and they're not pretty.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keeb119:
its at 85 in my living room with three bars of data. If it was low coverage it should; especially after the last update; be almost no bars at all and just dropdown to 3g service instead of dropping all data.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MillionManMosh:
I have seldom found that to be true, strangely. Mine will try re-authenticating on 4G two or three times before deciding 3G is better- then it will still toggle back and forth, and every time it switches from 4G to 3G it loses connection for a few seconds. It's an issue with the network architecture more than anything else- eHRPD is a stopgap solution and hopefully will be phased out soon, as LTE becomes universal and LTE-Advanced enters the picture.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keeb119:
oh ok.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] torikorocks:
You guys are all lucky, I don't even have 4g where I live.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MillionManMosh:
I can honestly say if they hadn't enticed me with faster datas I would still be using a Droid Incredible. The RAZR is fine-- the 3 other phones I had to go through to get one that worked (and realize it was probably the network all along) weren't worth the pain, though.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] torikorocks:
I'm on my 4th razr. The other 3 had dead pixels. But I love my razr.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keeb119:
same here. If i could activate a pallm pre 3 on verizon id be using that right now. But asit stands, the data speeds are nice, but arent worth it compared to constantly loosing data or all the network troubles verizons had activating there network. Though those are probably from there blazingly fast rollout rather then hardware on there end.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keeb119:
my second had two dead pixels this one has one but during normal opperation isnt noticable. though im ready to try and trade this for a galaxy nexus or cancel my contrqct and buy one straight from google. the main reason i bought this phone over the gnex was the sd card and thinking that it would be upgraded to ics rather quickly. fhe screen resolution and size are non issues for me. at this point there really isnt a lot to distinguish the screens unless you are a real power user, most wouldnt know that the razr has a lower pixel count and density.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackwatch:
Evening all ive been using my test phone to try the many various roms etc but its built up a fair bit of junk in it ( see the attached screenshot for a list of all the folders )

What im wanting to know is there a way to completely flatten the SD partion that will get rid of everything there so when the new rom goes on it will be a totally fresh install. I followed these instructions ..

1st You have to know how to ROOT your phone

2nd You have to know how to open your phone in “Recovery Mode”

3rd You have to have d/l and copy the ROM’s .zip file in your SD card

If you don't know how to do those GO : http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1055 AND READ....

4th From “Recovery Mode”

A)	Choose to “Wipe Data-Factory reset”

B)	Then “Wipe cache Partition”

C)	Then to “Advanced” “Wipe Dalvic cache”

D)	Then if you like from “Mounts - Storage” “Format /cache - /Data - /System”

E)	After this back to main and “Install zip from sdcard”

but there were still remmanants of crap left behind. Could i just select everything and hit delete then power down and install as above or is there another way to do it?

thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berq219:
On recovery mode you can go to mounts and storage >> format =) there format sd card or mmc (I got CM9 installed probably other driver names on your device)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackwatch:
Would that then format everything including the new rom zip file. If so How would I then get the zip file across so I could install it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Format = wipe

Full wipe is format cache format system format data phone will now not boot no OS .

Flash stock rom via Odin

Flash CWM and Root via Odin .

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

If you also format SD card all data is wiped .

Copy custom rom zip to sd card .

A step further would be to use one of the kernel cleaning tools on XDA .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] torpce:
Why all the instructions to flash ROMs writes that the new rom should be put on integrated Memory card, not the external SD card?

I tried to make a couple of flash ROMs from external SD card and everything went ok :p
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Provided

One your CWM can access the external sd card not all versions can .

Two not all users have an external sd card .

Bit pointless in the above two cases for instructions to be wrong when putting the file on the internal sd card is never wrong .
