LOL-

if theres no bootanimation.zip file in your system/media folder.... then you arent using a Sprint SGN2... OR are using an AOSP rom which i dont know whether the bootanimation is pulled from media or bin on those roms as im using Macks all star rom. im assuming that would be why theres a difference here. there would be really no other reason to change the location of where the rom pulls its animation. if this is your case... i apologize for not encompassing which roms would work and which wont... if you feel i purposely left out certain things to try and stump you or leave you wondering... then you are a colossal idiot and probably shouldnt be messing with your phone anyway.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Zeuszoos:
You started off so nice! But then just couldn't resist that insult at the end, huh? :)

I never said that you did anything intentionally. Please read what I wrote very carefully and not in "defensive mode".

Yes, I agree with you that stating that you were using a diff ROM would have been a plus and would have saved a few people time. But on the other side, what would cause you to think that this sort of thing wouldn't be uniform? I would have assumed the same thing.

But now we have all had the benefit of learning something new. :)

Maybe you could just edit your first post to add which ROM you're using and that it may be different on other ROMs? Just a suggestion.

Either way, thanks for letting me know this and yes, I do know which phone I'm using.

Do you really think that I don't know who's billing me every month for my cell service, nor where I got my phone? Really? That was your "go to" thought? :)

Samsung Galaxy (SPH-L900) Note 2

Factory ROM, Rooted, w/Perseus Kernel

So apparently you are right. It is the ROM that makes it different. :)

I stuck to factory (and used Triangle), so that when a new JB ver comes out, I will get it, because I prefer the Samsung twist on the OS. I will upgrade my ROM next week, but will use on based on the Factory OS for that reason.

Just wondering if anyone knows where I can find the boot animation of jelly beans falling into a clear jar have been looking everywhere for it thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
why not just ask the developers for it? The worse thing to happen they say no.

---------- Post added at 07:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 AM ----------

Thanks. I actually had already looked at thread. That's why I was changing the samsungani file. I agree with you, looks like it may be just the rom. Others have been able to change the animation while using Perseus.

Maybe I shuld trying changing original file to zip extension and see what it shows. Maybe I might get lucky and see what the difference is and be able to change new animation accordingly. I give myself about 10% odds of being that lucky.

Like someone, I like the stock rom. Not so much for it's "twist" on the OS, but more the AOSP don't. Plus, the apps work as expected. TB is able to remove all the bloat.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wizzlewizzle:
I highly recommend whompasaurus rom. it's got stock look and feel with all the benefits of a modded rom under the hood, super fast, stable and clean, it also has aroma installer which allows for a custom installation.

-Wizzle
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
I may check it out. A lot of ROMs just don't appeal to me for either because it's themed so much to something I don't like, or it's just got a bunch of crap I don't want or need. As much as I liked Cyogenmod on the Evo4G, I still removed a bunch of stuff. My ideal rom would have nothing but a launcher, SuperUser/SUSuperUser, BusyBox, and Google Play, and something like STweaks. Plus, whatever essential behind the scenes stuff need to run. Everything I can either download from Google Play or side load.

Not that I don't appreciate the work the people put into those ROMs. Just because some roms aren't for me, there still some good work there.

But I will check Whompasaurus. I recently installed Xposed, and I'm kind of mix on it; the lack of being able to access recent apps, ram cleaner by holding down the home button is rubbing me the wrong way.

Back on topic, I tried changing the samsungani file to a zip file and see if I could open it. Didn't work. Not a surprise though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wizzlewizzle:
Whompasaurus will not disappoint you. I'm not into any heavy theming myself.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Zeuszoos:
I just got "whomped" yesterday (Whompasaurus ROM) and so I can now say for sure that the reason some people are having a problem with these instructions, is because they're on the unmodified factory ROM (even if they're rooted).

I just changed to the Whompasaurus ROM and lo and behold, there's the "bootanimation.zip" file, sitting right in the /system/media directory! :)

So I just wanted to verify for everyone that doesn't see that file there already, that this method will NOT work for you!

And so if you do not already see this file b4 downloading version of it, then my bet is that you are using the Factory ROM, which you Rooted.

But there is no "bootanimation.zip" file in the Factory ROM and it will not use that method.

Most custom ROMs however (even if based on the Factory Rom), do use this method and yes, it is as simple to put this one in as it says above and after downloading the file to your phone, it shouldn't take you anymore than one single minute to perform the steps above! :)

Thanks a lot for the soggy apple, dude! :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lawdawg45238:
At great risk of being called a few choice words ...I gotta ask as well. I really really want this boot animation. When I go in to root explorer and the select system then select media, I am unable to locate the original boot animation file. However there are a lot of qmg files. I did find a boot animation file in /system/bin but when I replaced that with the new one. .nothing changed. I even tried renaming the. Zip to .qmg in system/media but that didn't work either.

My wife is an iphone lover and this would be fun to tease her with. . Any suggestions? I am on sprint l900 note 2 on MA7 firmware.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattsm:
The red highlight is prolly where your problem started, cuz you corrupted the orginal bootanimation in system/bin. That original should have been renamed to samsungani ,

Try this, here is a copy of the original bootanimation in that location, already renamed to samsungani, place it in system/bin

the downloaded bootanimation.zip in op should go in system/media
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lawdawg45238:
SUCCESS! !! I greatly appreciate your help and willingness to get that file posted. Can't wait to show my wife. .. HHA HA HA !!!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] srkoza:
an easier way to get this boot animation is to get romtoolbox from google play market and there are many to choose from, 2 that are droids peeing on apple, one is 3d and one is 2d
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattsm:
Correct. That can be done once the files are renamed, when running a stock rooted build. Most custom roms are already changed. Making it easier to just drop a bootanimation.zip in folder.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sheetmetalninja:
checked before i made this post and it is not sized correctly... not near motivated enough to check and see if it works now with our device but at the time of posting this ... it did not. the boot ani i posted was the 3D one but sized for our phones. in romtoolbox its under the TABLET section of the list.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jprecon:
I had this same problem and nothing would work. I finally deleted the boot zip file in system/media and copied and pasted it again. That seemed to fix it cause it's working now!

For those of you still having trouble, either with no changes to the sprint loader or only getting the black screen. Just see the links in post #59 and rename/delete (I just renamed mine) your files in system/bin also, then delete and recopy the boot zip into system/media, make sure you set to RW-R-R

Happy dance time, I mean pee time for me. Finally, got enough informatin to get this working on stock deoxidezed rooted with Persues 3.0.36 (alpha 36). Proof:

[YOUTUBE]NIBqp-TpnKo[/YOUTUBE]

The key to this appears to be:

1) changing the bootanimation file in system\bin to samsungani

2) put your custom boot amination zip file in system\bin under the name bootanimation.zip

--needs to be all lower case and have the zip extension.

The I don't know if the system\media files with bootanmination or bootloop in their name need to removed, renamed or move; I moved them to my SD card in case I needed them. You'll need to move, rename, or delete or the original samsungani. I just moved it to the SD card.

In case anyone is curious, don't know about shutdown animation. I just changed the file directory name so the GN@ doesn't use it; system\media\video. The boot sounds is an ogg file. To change, just replace the poweron.ogg file in system\media\ui\audio\SPR
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jprecon:
Simply changing the system\media\audio\ui\SPR one didn't work for me......

I went ahead and replaced all of them BST, SPR, VMU and XAS, then the sound changed on bootup......now to replace the shutdown one!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
hmm.... I'm trying to remember if it was the same on MA7 as with MC2. I think MA7 may have been the BST or was in the UI directly only. Personally, I don't get what all the different directories are about.

Hello all,

I hope i am posting in the right place, if not please move my post to the right place.

I have update to bada 2.0 using the firmware from hero355 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2131676

And after the update i have some small problem.

Bada 2.0 introduced the percent battery status option, but this does not work well on my phone Samsung GT7230-E.

After i fully charged the battery i see the message "Battery fully Charge ... " but the percent shows 0% and i must power off and power on the phone for it to work.

After the phone reboot i see the battery status to 60%, but this percent status stays like this until the phone is out of power.

Even if i have only 4% of battery, the battery status shows 60% forever until suddenly the phone auto poweroff as there is no power left in battery.

The phone stays ok couple of days like this so this is not a battery problem

This happens even if i disable percent option in battery status, is the same with the battery grid status as well.

Second problem is the sound is not so loud like in bada 2.0 and i dont see an option to make it louder.

Also in sound profile there is no option to change the vibration to sound more seconds.

I want an option if i select "vibrate then sound" for the vibration to be more then 1 second.

Right know the vibration takes only 1 second and right after it the sound alarm goes on.

If something else is needed to debug this let me know.

Thanks,

Also, do not take for granted that the process for rooting/S-off/modding your old HTC is similar in any way to the One X. HTC is constantly upgrading its security lockdowns, and folks are constantly coming on here and complaining "this is so much harder than my old phone, etc." You are simply better off resolving that this is a brand new phone, with new rules. So treat it as such, and read and research as much as you can about the One X before you begin to mod it.

As far as Subsidy unlock (SIM unlock), it is not related to SuperCID, and has not been achieved yet by hack/mod methods. But it might come soon, since S-off was just achieved.

Until that happens, you will need to use the more "official" method of getting the SIM unlock code that corresponds to your IMEI. AT&T will typically not supply the SIM unlock code, is you are not a current post-paid account holder. So you might be forced to use a 3rd party vendor to get a paid unlock code (of can your friend get it for you?). Keep in mind that as of Jan. 26, 2013, that is no longer legal in the US for any phones purchased after that date to be unlocked by anyone but your carrier. But since you purchased the phone from a friend, you may be exempt from the law, if the phone was originally purchased from AT&T before Jan. 26.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] angramenyu:
I have a question (might be stupid). I bought my HOX factory unlocked, or so it said the person I bought it from, but it came with the at&t brand, is there a chance that the phone would lock itself if I root it, do an s-off, etc?

By the way, the phone was actually unlocked, though I don't know if he purchased a code or bought it factory unlocked.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] a box of kittens:
The only way it will lock it self is if you or him reports it as stolen or lost
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Either way, SIM unlock will survive bootloader unlock and S-Off.

Navigon should detect data on the internal memory as SD-card though, it is mounted as /sdcard. Are you sure you placed your data in the right directory?

The only thing you can do is send a message to Navigon telling them to hurry up and add support for /ext_card.
