The preceding announcement and your review enticed me to check this out and the mention of free load mode in the OP induced me to purchase it after nearly falling out of my chair laughing. I'm not sure why that gave me such a good laugh but it did. It looks good on first boot with default settings on a Moto G7 Power running a slightly stale stock Android 10 rooted with Magisk 23 and I'm looking forward to tweaking the settings for farsighted eyes. The only problem is that new phones boot fast enough that the show cannot be enjoyed for long. Nice problem to have! :D

[EDIT] it has already incidentally revealed the point at which the operating system takes control of the display and applies it's cut-out setting. Nifty.

For some odd reason. I could not install LiveBoot version 1.86 from the playstore last night. Only version 1.84.

Just checked again a few minutes ago. And I was able to get version 1.86 installed.

Bottom line is, Live Boot is now working well on my Pixel 6 with all the February updates as well.

OH MY GOD ARE YOU TELLING ME THE BEST APP OF ALL TIME IS STILL WORKING?!?!?!?!??

BEST APP 2023!@#!@#!@#

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

Please tell me this was the same app that had the catlog scrolling as a live wallpaper? because that was the best app EVERRRRRRRRRRRZZZZZZ and i need it back in my life.

Edit: No sorry that is a different app, and sorry for the caps I could not hold off my excitement even for a second when I saw one of my old favorites. I hope the wallpaper ones out there too as it was actually useful as heck!

Edit2: The scrolling logcat wallpaper works too!!! just manually install it if it says its incompatible. (then use a shortcut app or whatever app you use to access the settings [no way to configure it otherwise])

P.S.

Thank you so much.
[Android Apps and Games] TioCareca:
if you find the wallpaper one don't forget to share 🤣👍
[Android Apps and Games] leathan:
Its the same old old one on the play store. "logcat-live-wallpaper-lite" and "logcat-live-wallpaper"

They were saying that it would not run on my device so I.

1.) Patch to allow installation of apks that dont target my version

(Might not be needed) (I think this is same as editing the max_target_SDK= line in java/gradle files.)

2.) Sideloaded the apk (adb install)

3.) Used a shortcut app to create a shortcut to launch the apps settings activity.

4.) I profit!
[Android Apps and Games] leathan:
As usual I might be wrong but I believe you may also want to

adb shell pm grant com.android.wallpaper.livepicker android.permissions.READ_LOGS

or I think it will only display its own catlog.

Or not, I'll shut up now. Cheers!

I have found out the issue but i don't know how to not make it happen.

[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
v1.91 attached to opening post.

Works for some people on Android 14 🤷‍♂️

As with the previous update for Android 12, you can thank DavidBerdik (GitHub, don't think he's on XDA) for pushing this.

I don't think Google will accept the update on Play so I might have to pull it there.
[Android Apps and Games] JEANRIVERA:
First of all, Thanks for the update, I am proud to say I am one of the 7 users still using this amazing app & boot animation

I have a little problem using the app, my device is OnePlus 12 running Android 14 OOS 14.0, is there something that can be done about it? I can provide logcat or any device specifications if needed
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
So some devices have an SELinux issues which makes the bootup sequence unable to detect the screen resolution on Android 14, so the app stores the information when you open the UI. Many devices have multiple resolutions these days, so it may be storing the wrong information.

Go through your display settings, and make sure your display is set to its max resolution. Then open the LiveBoot app, and change some options (and back if you want) so the information is regenerated. Then close LiveBoot and set your display back to whichever resolution you want. That should fix the bootup resolution.

EDIT: I hope :D

If it does, please go back to your lower resolution and post the output of (in a root shell):

dumpsys display | grep -i real

Then go back to max resolution and do it again. I thought I was detecting physical resolution but maybe not. Or maybe something else is the issue 🤷‍♂️
[Android Apps and Games] JEANRIVERA:
that did the trick, thanks for your support!!!!

The first suggestion, I did not need to do the other, I thought you were asking for the output
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Thanks, it's probably using the override value rather than the base value... let me build a new version you can check. Please prepare by making your settings "wrong" again and having LiveBoot be broken.
[Android Apps and Games] JEANRIVERA:
Sure I can test it for you

also I edited my post to specify what part fixed the issue
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
lol I did actually need the output so good I read it before your removed it :)

Try this version, mess with your resolution a couple different ways, have LiveBoot regenerate the scripts by changing whatever display options, reboot a couple of times, see if you can still make this version break.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] JEANRIVERA:
after 6 reboots & after 6 different settings for my display (resolution & screen size combinations) & coming back to my original settings, all the times without the need to open the app, I was not able to break the app, I guess this time it is a very solid release, THANKS!!!
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Great! See y'all in a couple of years!

That is awesome. I wanted to do a logcat while porting a rom, but I knew that I wouldn't be able to do it without having to enable adb debugging, which I couldn't because it was bootlooping and there was no way to check. This is a good way of debugging without having to worry about logcats! Good job!

As u can read in frist Post - it needs SuperSU:

Root

This app does not only require root, it requires specifically SuperSU version 2.40 or newer, due to how the boot-time code is launched.

As u can read in my Post: It works on CM11s.

Test run works perfetly on Z1 rooted UB stock rom

After boot the logcat appears after the kernel logo, for a while. Then the stock bootanimation pops in before the actual boot.

Is there some way to fix this?

Let me know If I could help you with this. :)
[Android Apps and Games] paul c:
As mentioned earlier, running perfectly on my Nexus4 with 5.0.1

I'm updating the ROM on a nightly basis, I see that the script must be overwritten by the ROM update. Could it be made to persist, maybe in the same way as SuperSU?

That would be great :good:
[Android Apps and Games] Celestial Fury:
Thanks. That says for Kernel but not sure all random reboots are caused by Kernel? But if LiveBoot can do it easier, why not? :fingers-crossed:
[Android Apps and Games] asuhoops8628:
Any chance to provide a direct download link to the apk?

I'd like to test on my device, but it is listed as incompatible and will not show.
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
I have no idea why DarQ would or wouldn't work, it's probably unrelated to LiveBoot not working at all.

As for the logcat, I hope somebody else can answer because I don't know. You'll need a root-capable logcat app, because non-root logcat apps only see their own logs, I do know that.
[Android Apps and Games] trevtdogg:
all good, it started working properly in dark mode after another restart.

same other issue still - test mode doesn't work, and the boot animation is just stock standard.
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Well if you ever get that logcat, we'll look at it.
[Android Apps and Games] trevtdogg:
found an app that should do it called logcat extreme, let me know if this attachment worked.
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
No mention of LiveBoot in this logcat.

Be sure to do the "test run" (and have that not work) before generating it. Also your audio mod is erroring out all the time.
[Android Apps and Games] trevtdogg:
ah, I was just trying to capture the failed boot sequence.

the new log here should have two attempted "test runs", I tap the test run and absolutely nothing happens though.

also, thank you for the notice of the audio mod errors. do you have any idea what the app name or module name is, so I can track it down? I'm not very experienced with the log side of android modding.
[Android Apps and Games] Iridule:
I will try to get logcat tomorrow as test run fails for me as well
[Android Apps and Games] IrisNebula:
You said "without the need to open the app"

I don't think you actuary tested it. On every system resolution change, Chainfire said you had to open the app and make a setting change so that it updates to the new environment.

It also doesn't work for me, while it worked in 1.86 (neither while booting or the Test run). It's a OnePlus 6, Android 10, Magisk 27.0

Does the attached file help or should I get a proper full logcat? This was with "Logcat Reader" and filter "liveboot".
[Android Apps and Games] JEANRIVERA:
he didn't asked me to open the app after every setting in resolution change, of course I did open the app once he send it to me to make sure the new settings stick I did change some things apply and then changed back to original settings, then after that I performed the testings and reboot after every resolution change
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
There is nothing useful in this log, sorry.

There is nothing useful in this log. You've probably filtered it out, as none of the interesting stuff is logged under "liveboot".
[Android Apps and Games] trevtdogg:
tried again with a change of settings, see attached.

If I should change any settings in logcat extreme let me know. it has root access, should be capturing all logs.
[Android Apps and Games] IrisNebula:
Alright, here's a proper full unfiltered logcat of the last few minutes taken from the console. I must have tried the Test run twice, left at least 5 seconds before touching anything to not pollute the log a lot, as I suspect the run actually happens, it just doesn't get drawn.
[Android Apps and Games] D4rkov:

[Android Apps and Games] D4rkov:
@Chainfire the liveboot/logcat output is on the top left corner of my A55, rooted with latest Canary Magisk.

Doesn't matter what number of lines I put, it is stuck like that.
[Android Apps and Games] trevtdogg:
maybe try an older version and see if you still have the issue?

I rolled back to v1.86 since the new version simply doesn't work at all on many devices. maybe it will help your issue too?
[Android Apps and Games] D4rkov:
I think the "Various fallback methods to determine screen size" update is causing this.
[Android Apps and Games] D4rkov:
I have to use latest, lower version doesn't work on Android 14.

LiveBoot does not change the boot animation. It overlays a real-time scrolling view of the contents of your phone's logcat output. In order for this to work, you need to be rooted.
