I grew tired of doing this manually via the command line every time I re-flashed so I followed what others did and pieced this together. This takes cares of startup/shutdown audio and video. It basically eliminates anything that remotely resembles T-Mobile and gives that extra long shutdown sequence (60 frames). UPDATE: It works great with UVJI5. In fact, the new ROM is the reason why I created this and thus the only ROM I've tested it on. UPDATE: As expected, it works with UVJI6. You will just have to re-root. ROM Manager's automatic process was acting up so I had to go into its manual mode and choose the file myself.
You will need to flash this via ROM Manager.
Best,
DCC
UPDATE: Attached to post; VapidShare gave up on us prematurely.
UPDATE: I apologize for being a little vague, unintentionally ... this gives the phone the stock SGS I9000 startup/shutdown animations. There is another update out there that accomplishes the same thing but for whatever reason only offered 14 frames in the shutdown. This is the full 60 frames of the S breaking up into little pieces. It's the reverse of the startup, essentially.
Reserved by OP for future use
Totally joking of course ... I just always wanted to do that!
Works great, thanks! First time I have seen the shutdown longer than 14 frames. Hooray!
Does this work on the new firmware?

Great question ... I forgot to mention in my original post: this update works great with UVJI5 ... in fact, it's what led me to create it. Jacking around with Kies for an hour in vain left me with no energy to deal with extricating my phone from those horrid T-mobile startup/shutdown sounds and graphics.

This looks like the same one I already had I want to one with the extended shutdown animation like the OP had posted
IDK the one i posted replaces tmobile with the original galaxy s boot/shutdown
removed link
Sorry guys, I am at work and my client's firewall does not let me through to rapidshare ... if I can find a few minutes of downtime, I will seek alternatives. I can't even download the file to attach it to a post in this forum (it's almost 8MB, BTW; I don't know if I'm even allowed to). I will see if it's at least still on my phone.
Yes, this removes the T-Mobile start-up shutdown animations (audio and video) with the stock SGS I9000 ones but it has the extended version of the shutdown. As I originally mentioned, I pieced it together from others' updates.
UPDATE: I attached the file to the original post! My apologies to all who were inconvenienced by the RapidShare link.
NP no rush here.

Thanks, much appreciated
Installed through Rom Manager with no issues.
Very nice. Thank you very much.
the reason the original only had 14 frames is because the original shutdown would only play 14 frames and stop.
Does this work on the stock roms and some of Eugenes.
I haven't ventured out into the JI5 stuff simply because I'm waiting for all the smoke to clear.
got it working

It should work just fine with any ROM. It is a very simple script. It just removes the existing PowerOn and Shutdown sounds and replaces the two bootsamsung QMG files and overwrites the shutdown animation folder. In the worst case, it would just do nothing.
Folks, feel free to download it and see the constituent files. There is an update-script in the META-INF/com/google/.... directory.
Good luck,
DCC

what option in rommanager u using?
Click to expand...

Click "Install ROM from SD Card", then choose this file (GalaxySBoot.zip or whatever), don't choose any "Pre-installation" options, and just click OK. Since it's not named update.zip, it shouldn't conflict with ROM Manager's "process" (for some people, ROM Manager needs to lay down its update.zip in order to ensure that when booting into the stock recovery it is able to load itself via said file).
I hope this helped.

LATEST UPDATE: I will start working on this again soon. I didn't realize so many people had downloaded it until today when I went to add this thread to the Hero wiki. I will not be replacing the initial "Hero" splash screen, as that requires the installation of an unlocked HardSPL, and I don't have a reason to unlock my own SPL.
Hey all.
So, remember way way back in Android's pre-release days when the boot screen was an oscillating red dot, similar to the eye of a Cylon? Well, it was always my favourite boot animation, so I decided to bring it back. I found an animated gif on the net, removed the word "ANDROID" from it, made it fit our resolution, and voila. Here it is.
I've updated this considerably. I did some smoothing on the red animation so it won't look so pixel-y, I've scaled down the animated gif so that it doesn't get nearly as choppy as it did before, and removed that pesky red dot on the left side. It looks much, much nicer now.
Planned updates:
- Sound. I'm thinking either the low "whirring" noise the cylons make as they scan, or the brief piano music that plays during the first intro to the episodes (not the opening credits.) Thoughts? Does anyone even want sound in their bootscreen?
- Add more frames to smooth the animation out (right now it's about 12 FPS)
- Add a more enticing background picture, such as a Cylon head rather than the solid black.
As always, feedback is welcomed.
A picture would be nice.

Getting rid of the first HERO screen is a bit more difficult. It requires you to remove the device's security/cid checks or something. There's a thread about how to do that in the "Hero Android Development" forum. It's stickied. As of now I'm pretty sure you need to make some custom serial/usb cable to do it, and I can't be bothered. If anyone knows a simpler way to change that first splash screen, I'd love to hear it.

You need to have a rooted phone and the patched recovery image installed. Boot into recovery mode by holding the Home button while you power up your phone, and select "upgrade via choose .zip" or whatever the option is. Exactly the same as flashing a new ROM, as Amdathlonuk said.
Thanks dude!

Hi,
Firstly, thanks for this craig0r, I've been looking for this ever since I got my phone, don't understand why they took it out, it's so cool.
Anyway, I'm hoping someone can help me get it working.
I've tried to flash both 0.7 and 0.8 but I get the following error each time:
installing update...
copying files...
E: Failure at line 3:
copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:
Installation aborted.
I have root and I'm running BeHero 1.3.2.
I looked at the update and found that in:
cylon0.8_signed/system/media/bootscreen/boot_animation.xml
There's this line:
audio="/system/media/bootscreen/boot.mp3"
It's referring to an mp3 but the boot sound is wav, could this be the problem?
Cheers guys
Working flawlessly!
Running Android 1.5 - SenseHero1.6 ROM
Sounds will be awesome, no need for an ugly cylon tho!
EDIT: @Sparmian I believe its because Android 2.1 storage bootscreen in another directory. Correct me if I'm mistaken

That certainly could be a problem. Also, I've only tested this in Modaco roms, although I should think it would work on any cupcake system. I won't be porting it to eclair until we have an official Hero release from HTC. Not that it would be particularly difficult with our current "faked" eclair roms, but they aren't functional enough for me, so I can't be bothered.
As far as sounds go, at this point I will probably wait for the eclair release as well.
Aaaaahhh!
Thanks for the help guys. I didn't realize this was a cupcake only release - I'm running eclair. Doh!.
Anyone have any idea how I can get this to work on eclair?
Cheers.
Can someone please help me out? I am wanting to install a custom boot animation. I downloaded one from this forum and renamed it to bootanimation.zip. I place on my memory card then used Root Explorer to move it to /system/media. I rebooted the phone but no animation comes up.

Galaxy S phones don't use bootanmation.zip they use a proprietary format QMG or something.
Thanks for the quick reply.

negative.. Gunnyman stated it perfectly.. I researched for hours trying to figure out how to decode the QMG format into frames.. and met with no success.
I'm digging into QMG tonight. If there are mac tools for editing them I'll work on it.
please do, I would really like the boot animation from jh2 (not the S breaking into pieces and rebuilding, but the blue and purple shine that runs though it a couple of times.
super sexy imo.

I'm sure you could purchase the tools for several thousands of dollars from the proprietor, Quram Soft.
The price isn't even available on their web site, http://quramsoft.com/solution_e/qmage.asp
The name of the QMG format is Qmage, I've been unable to ascertain if our phones use Qmage or Qmage - F.
See Topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=736412 for all the information that we have on boot animations, shut down animations, and sounds.
actually, you can do the bootanimation.zip, one of my co-workers was messing with it today... you probably need to set the permissions on the zip correctly.

It will tell you if it was installed, however, the way I had to error check things was really hard to do because of the way adb is designed, so i did my best to do error checking, but there may be times when it may say "Installed sucessfully" and it may not have..
It should only take less than 1 minute to install, however this program disabled Voodoo lagfix when installing a modem, so when your phone first reboots, it may take up to 10+ minutes to complete the disabling of voodoo lagfix.
Hey Mac,
I was read over in the Axura thread your having problems installing the modems?
Can you please provide some details? Is there a error msg? How far did you get before it died? Did your phone reboot? etc.
I would like the ability with this program to change the top status bar color and icons. I know there is a UOT Kitchen site, but to have it in the app would be fantastic. Other then that, great idea for an app. Looks great so far.

Are you using Axura 2.4? If not, what version are u using?
I just did a install of JK4 Modem on Axura 2.2 using cwm and it worked just fine...
Did you try disabling any lagfixes? i believe 2.4 uses ULF, not Voodoo, so that might be part of the problem?
Can someone here test installing some of the modems on Axura 2.4 with and without lagfix... with cwm and with e2... and report back?
I am new to flashing and so far with this forums help have made it to the point where I can get into the Clockwork recovery. I can select the downloaded ROM, flash it, and re-boot. When the phone reboots the original Froyo 2.2 is still there. However it's still there but missing a bunch of stuff. No martket app, etc.
Am I missing a step here?
TIA, Jeff
We don't know the steps your taking to know if you've missed one...
