audio file

Ok guys i have updated the boot image but want to update the file.

Where exactly does the file go?

I placed the bootimage under system/media/ and it worked but now i placed the audio file named SPC_animation_final.mp3 under the same location and it did not work.

please assist.

**update**

I figured it out.

The sound and boot image have to be on "system/media/" but the audio has to be named Android_audio.mp3 for some reason.

Is it me or will this NOT work with MIUI Rom 11.26?

I've tried a few different zips uploaded here just to test and nothing changes. I know I'm doing the process correctly.

When looking in the actual Rom zip for MIUI, I see it has a disc image file named "boot" along with the bootanimation.zip. Could that be what it's loading instead of the zip?

Cant get this to work, even with adb!

Hello, I've been trying to change my boot animation, I know how to do it through adb, but I figured I'd give this way a try. Unfortunately, it didn't work. I did change it once, and the way I found that worked, was to stick the files into /data/animation folder. Just recently, I did a theme add on, which failed to load properly, forcing me to flash back to a previous nand, in which my boot animation was not saved. :( I have already installed this new theme addon, and I cannot find /data/animation anymore. I cannot find the bootanimation.zip anywhere in the locations that every post says they are. I've tried making the /data/animation folder, pushing to /media and to /system/customize/resource and still no go. I have a feeling it is looking somewhere else first. Any help with this would greatly be appreciated. Thanks!

Yeah

Download the attatched file

Unzip it to a folder

put your mp3 and bootanimation.zip in the folder you just unzipped.

Plug in your phone

If you full rooted, use pushboot2, if you half rooted use pushboot.

If you havent rooted, then root and come back.

then follow the prompts.

Any issues, come back here.

Strange that its not working. I just downloaded it. Put dancingandroid.zip in the main folder and it worked just fine.

Remember, the zip is going whereever you unzipped. NOT into the bootanimation folder. aka, the same folder as pushboot2

Otherwise I would love to work with someone on fixing this, so just pm me and we can work something out to get this working for everyone.

Thanks for making this simple for people like myself. By "use pushboot2" do you mean install from zip?

Great utility! This makes customizing my boot animation SO much easier! Thank You evanscnce!

Ah, that would be the issue. Going to play with it a bit and see if I can figure it out.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Update:

Ok, I've tried it about a dozen different ways and I'm still doing something wrong.

What I'm trying to do is take the attached animation, remove the 2nd part, and then have an mp3 play.

I went over xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6866186&postcount=150 a few times and still don't know where I'm going wrong.

[EVO 4G Android Development] The_Infamous_One:
I figured there was something else that had to be configured... Does it involve the desc.txt? I wanted to add sound to boot animations that had none previously, so I'm positive they're not currently set up for sound.

Haha! That's the same boot animation I am trying to load with sound! I'm adding in the "transforming" sound! :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
Try this.

The first folder has to be named android and then desc.txt has to be edited accordingly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] The_Infamous_One:
Wow, I wasn't aware that changing "part0" to "android" was what made the .mp3 play! I decided to give it a shot and sure enough, there's my transforming sound! YAY! Thank you very much evanscnce! Great app all the way! :D

[EVO 4G Android Development] tatnai:
1. make sure you have usb debugging checked in menu/settings/applications

2. make sure, if fully rooted, you are using pushboot2.bat (not pushboot.bat) that is added to the latest version (this is probably your problem)
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
USB Debugging is checked.

I tried both pushboot.bat and pushboot2.bat. Neither worked.

[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
It simply won't recognize my phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tatnai:
as in the device does not show up when it first runs? are you using a new computer (do you have adb installed, do you have the HTC sync drivers from the orig sd card installed?).
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
The .bat file won't recognize my phone. I originally rooted using toast and the .bat file worked fine.

I had to unroot.

Then, I re-rooted using unrevoked 3. Now, it won't work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tatnai:
oh, you used unrevoked? can't help you. i would recommend, if you want to use most of the things on here that require full root, that you fully root with toast's method 1 & 2 (or one of the simple equivalents).
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
Should that really matter? This says it doesn't require full root. I have a custom recovery. There should be no issues. The .bat file isn't even recognizing my phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tatnai:
i don't know exactly how unrevoked 3 works. i do know that if you've got everything running that we already discussed:

1. usb debugging checked on phone.

2. adb works just fine (plugging in your phone, typing "adb devices" in command prompt shows the device listed)

3. you've tried a few different USB ports if you are on a windows pc (can be a little funny that way)

and you are still not able to see your device listed now, with the only difference being that you switched your rooting method, then I would try what worked before. the other thing you can do, if adb works, use the adb push commands to change the bootimage (see the other forum that lists those out)
[EVO 4G Android Development] vroomazoom:
Second Issue

So, I posted earlier that Pushboot2 was not recognizing my phone. I solved that issue by using a different computer.

So, it recognises my phone, and I get to the part where it says "when recover is loaded please continue. Press any key to continue."

When recovery is loaded, I press a key, an it simply displays again "press any key to continue." If I press a key a second time, it says "Please be sure to ONLY have one mp3 and one zip file in the folder then continue..."

So, either the associated instructions or the step between "when recovery is loaded please continue and "Please be sure to ONLY have...", appears to be missing.

I deleted and re-installed the zip file, just in case.

I hope that is clear and thanks,

to make it work with CM6 (aka: Froyo) simply change the path in the PushBoot.bat and/or PushBoot2.bat

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource​

in CM6 ROM the path is

make the change

save the updated file (i renamed mine to pushboot2_Froyo.bat)

double click your new bat file

enjoy your nifty boot animations

if you things look like they went well but the new animation isn't showing up..

try this....

- once the script reboots into recovery (i use amonra 1.7)

- before you "press any key to continue" the login script

- on the phone from the recovery menu select 'USB-MS toggle' and press the power button to confirm it

- then in continue the script by pressing any key on your computer
