Customizing Cognition 4.1 Failure - Captivate Themes and Apps

I flashed the Congnition 4.1 and everything is working excellent (Thanks DesignGear :-D), but when I tried to flash a custom boot animation from MobileTech.com and a Theme from XDA (can't remember whom it was from), my phone started vibrating only.
Has anyone here seen this same issue and if they were able to corrected, could you give me some pointers?
Thanks,
Brasus

themes have to be built specifically for the framework that you are running. you cannot just go around flashing random themes.
as far as boot animation, most of the time, i dont think those are CWM flashable, you just drop bootanimation.zip into /system/media/ and thats it

You can't flash any theme you want. the theme has to use the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk files from UCKB1 rom in order to work with Cognition. So, you have to look around and see if a theme says it's compatiable with UCKB1. It's only been a few days, I'm sure you'll see some more ported on the Themes and Applications section soon.

Thanks for the quick reply.

and dont try using darkness 2.5 on 4.1 either. it worked on 4.0 but it will not work on cog 4.1.

Thanks Night for the link, awsome animation.

Nexus S Boot and Shutdown Animations + ringtones ect (UPDATED)

I pulled the boot animation from the Nexus S dump. I also reversed some of it and made a shutdown animation. On top of that I pulled the ringtones/notifications/alarms and UI sounds. Took it all and zipped it up into a flashable zip. Always backup before flashing anything
The only problem I have found is the shutdown animations doesn't overwrite the entire shutdown folder. So if you have more then 46 .pngs in your existing shutdown folder they only the first 46 will be overwritten. Can someone modify the zip to delete the shutdown folder prior to replacing it. That would fix the problem. Everything else works very well...... I'm newer to zips for if someone can fix the problem this will work great.
EDIT: This has only been tested on Mammon88's new ROM base with custom kernel.....
YOU NEED A KERNEL THAT SUPPORTS CUSTOM BOOT ANIMATIONS.....
You can also use my midNIGHT ROM (This is built in already) located at PPCGEEKS http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/sprint-ep...-7-froyo-dk28-nexus-s-goodies-12-16-10-a.html
Had to upload to rapidshare cause the file was to large to upload here.
http://rapidshare.com/files/437742174/Nexus_S_Combo.zip
UPDATE: Here is the Link to the Ringtones Zip
I have also separated everything so those without a Kernel that allows for custom bootanimations aren't left out
Think this will work with both dk28 and di18? Stupid question, I'm sure but I'm a cautious fool =)
will i lose all my other current existing sounds or does this just add to them?

I included the stock sounds as well. I use it with my midNIGHT ROMS based on Mammon88's new releases with custom kernel.. My ROMS are here if interested.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/sprint-ep...-7-froyo-dk28-nexus-s-goodies-12-16-10-a.html
So I got impatient and decided to try it. The shut down one worked but not the startup. stock rooted di18
Does this include the animation when you turn your screen off??

I pulled the boot animation the other night and all I got was the four colors coming to together to form an "X" but it keep looping over and over until the phone booted up. Is there more to the animation or is that the gist of it?

Same issue, Andromeda DI18 rom.
bootanimation is only supported as *.qmg format unless you have a kernel that supports bootanimation.zip (boot animations as a zip file)...
Maybe you should list compatible ROMS, the following should be compatible but they still need to be confirmed:
Heroic Epic
Mammon's Bonsai4All
[ACS] SyndicateROM (Shuriken)
[ACS]Xtreme Kernel (Lucy)
[ROM]VIPERrom [TRiNiTY] DK28

I can confirm the same results on Epic Experience ROM. The shutdown is pretty cool. Wish I had it for the bootup.
Sorry been busy. You need to use Mammon88's new base......I'll update the OP....
can i get a zip of just the shutdown not the startup..
How big is the file suppose to be? My dl was only 236 bytes..

Either use Mammon88's base ROM or my midNIGHT ROM http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/sprint-ep...-7-froyo-dk28-nexus-s-goodies-12-16-10-a.html
Any chance of a zip of just the notification sounds and ringtones?
Can someone post a mirror to this. Rapidsucks is not letting me dowload and keeps giving me that I can't download anymore from my ip unless I upgrade. Seems like a scam if you ask me.

[BOOT] Android Swirl Boot *updated 12/30/10*

Update: added straight logo animation as requested by tyl3rdurden
Just thought I'd toss this out there. One of the animations I made while learning some new programs and am currently using myself. The panning lights will continue until your phone boots. It should work on any of the DK28 based ROMs that use Mammon's kernel or a variation thereof for custom animations.
There is a funky sound that comes along with it that I mangled from the wonderful site www.freesound.org under the CC Sampling Plus 1.0 license
The .zip is flashable through CWM and as usual I'm not responsible if this jacks up your phone in any way.

You should back up and delete the stock sprint animations out of your system folder. The new boot animation is called bootanimation.zip. The stock is .qmi or something like that.

Of course, the "stock sprint animations" were for my case, I believe you need to delete the one you no longer need. Backup and give it a try!
Anyway to get this for EB13?

Get one of the CWM3 boot amimations flashable zip from the supernova thread. Download these animations. Replace the bootanimation.zip in the CWM3 with the one in these files.
You just flash this, correct?
had this when i was on midnight rom. awesome boot animation!
Any way to get this as a shut down animation?

Yea I don't know either. I had Kaos39 also and according to the research I did here, bootscreens arent supported on Kaos. Some people were saying that they do run fine on the xtrRoms. You might try investigating that option and see if its something you wanna do. Those xtrRoms arent that bad either. There pretty fast out of the box.

[Theme] EC05 Stock Theme w/1% battery and reboot mods

I want to keep contributing as I can to this community. So I started this thread for Stock Themes with Reboot and Battery Mods.
Lately I have been getting a ton of requests for stock themes with battery mods. So I figured I would start working on that in my spare time and honestly, who wouldn't want the reboot mod....right?
In an effort to spread Autism Awareness as well as my family's story ALL themes are posted in the Theme Repository on my blog. Click on the Android Development Page and learn about Autism while your downloading the theme.....
Stock EC05 Theme w/Reboot mod ONLY
Stock EC05 Framework Android Guy 1% Battery Mod.zip
Stock EC05 Theme Reboot Mod Glowing Blue Battery Mod
Stock EC05 Theme Reboot Mod Solid Blue Circle Battery Mod
Stock EC05 theme w/1% battery mod (NO Reboot Mod)
Reserved for me
Stock EC05 Theme w/Reboot mod ONLY for those that like to keep it original and who wouldn't want the reboot mod?
List in 2nd post updated.
Thank you for the battery mods! I hated stock with no %.
And thank you for helping me more autistic aware and understand more. I volunteered at the autism walk in Az just a few days ago.

Thank you... That made my day
Thank you very much for the hard work. I do have one question. The stock android man zip has both the standard hdpi folders and also hdpi-v4. From the best I can tell the v4 folders are not needed. Is that the case? Can those folders be removed without breaking anything? Thanks again for all of the help.
OK I know I am needy but one last question. You have included the twframework-res.apk in the package. Is that necessary for the batterymod or anything else in the package. I already have a modified one that I would rather not have to redo.
Pardon my ignorance. By reading this title, I am assuming this is for Stock ROM's. I tried to flash the circle mod and i get force closes galore. I also tried fixing permissions=no dice. Tried to wipe cache partition, dalvik cache, and reflash and keep getting the same result. Did I misread this or am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance!

I got it to work on the Syndicate ROM. Made a backup, wiped cache and dalvik three times each and have had only one force close at the beginning with LauncherPro, but that hasn't happened since. I just flashed because I wanted the little android mod and using battery icon mod made my phone go into a boot loop. So I can confirm it working for Syndicate, but I'm not sure about Bonsai or the others.
Great work by the way, ptfdmedic.

OK I went ahead and removed the v4 folders and used my own twframework-res.apk. Everything is working great. I only have one problem but I think that is an Epic problem and not your mod. When I charge the battery with an external charger or with the phone turned off it works great. If I charge the phone while it is on the phone will alert that it is full however the battery meter says 96%. Sometimes it will say 100% but as soon as I disconnect the charger is drops to 96%.
So thank you again for all that you do. It is much appreciated.

I am not sure if it works on every rom but it does work on stock ec05 so it doesn't require CIQ to be removed.
OK - forgive my inexperience in advance. I have Samsung Epic 4G just recently "rooted" , I have ROM Manager / CWM 3.0.2.4 = do I need to download / install something else ? or can I just download / install this ?

I am on the same setup as you. I used the android guy version. I did not flash it straight out so I am not positive of how it works. What I did was download the androidguy zip. I extracted the res folder from framework-res.apk. I removed all of the -v4 folders because they were duplicates. I replaced all of the images except the battery icons with the theme I am using. I replaced the twframework-res.apk with the theme file that I am using. I put everything back into the zip and flashed with clockwork. And that was all I did.
How did you install the modd? Did you just download and flash the zip in clockwork or did you modify it in any way? If you just flashed it straight out I would try removing the -v4 folders to make sure that is not the problem. If you modified it than make sure you only modified the images and not any of the xml files. Hope this helps. If you can provide more details about how you are installing it maybe we can assist further but try this for now.

I can't say for certain if it will work for you or not but it is something to try. All I can say is what I did using the android guy version. I have not tried the blue circle on. Plus I have customized it a bit and am using my own framework.res file. So any portion of that could be the difference. But let us know how this one goes and maybe the op can help figure it out.

[Q] Premade Boot Animations

See the link in my signature, or search the captivate themes and apps forum for bootanimation or boot animation, or do a google search for the same terms.
Although, just as a heads-up, if you're using a Gingerbread rom with JVR or JVS framework, your boot animations may not work. It's looking like they've changed the bootanimation.zip to something like samsungboot.qmg (which you can't edit at this point).
I have JVB and have changed it already. Works good. Thanks.
