[Q]Bootanimation Black Screen - Android Themes

Hi guys,
I realized my bootanimation, but it doesn't work!
Can someone look at it?
When I flash it and restart the screen become black and then It loads home screen!
Thx

Try this. Also are you putting it in the right spot and setting permissions appropriately?

yes, I use the adb with the command
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/
but I never change de permission, how can I do?
Using the terminal and chmod 7777?
Thx a lot, it works!
But when I restar the phone, after the bootanimation the phone starts "locked" and I've to push the power button and slide down to use it.
I've got a HTC WildFire

Change the Boot Screen in CM3.6.5

In Roger's ROM,I could change the boot Screen to the cute android logo animation by the instructions -
adb remount
adb push boot.gif /system/media
adb push boot.mp3 /system/media
But it could not work in CM3.6.5,nothing happened to the orignal boot screen.
How should I do now in CM3.6.5?
Thanks everybody!
Lol it's different because theres no boot.gif in cyanogen's ROM. Try this, I think it's what you want.

So although I'm a veteran here at XDA, I must admit i'm a noob at the G1 ( was a pro at the WM smartphone) Is there a way to add a startup sound & or a shutdown sound for the phone. I'm using the dudes cupcake rom. If there is a way. are there a set of instructions to follow?

Cyan's mod uses the classic 2 part animation boot screen, with the green "shining" Android boot screen. This being, the Android lettering is a transparent .png, and the shining animation is a scrolling .gif that shines through it, thus getting that effect. In order to change the boot screen, you have to edit both of those and then use similar adb commands. They're both in a APK file though, which makes it a bit tricky.
This is indeed the correct link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467693&highlight=boot

The custom roms shoud let you in without the setup. have you tried pressing the home button the the "touch the android to begin" screen
My phone touch Iz not Working so I Can hit the android to pass it >
You can try pulling the SetupWizard.apk to your pc and see if that take you directly to the home screen and then pushing it back in and sign in via market.set up adb and do the following.
Go to cmd in windows
adb remount
adb pull /system/app/SetupWizard.apk C:/
adb shell
rm /system/app/SetupWizard.apk
reboot
If after reboot you can get to home screen you can push the SetupWizard.apk again to sign n via marker or gmail by
adb remount
adb push C:/SetupWizard.apk /system/app/SetupWizard.apk
Hope tht helps!

[Q] Bootanimation infinite loop - please help

Hi All,
I hope you can help me - I promise I've searched for a solution!
I downloaded a few new boot animations to try on my CM6 install (on G1).
At first I tried simply copying a bootanimation.zip to /data/local and rebooting. So far so good - the animation worked perfectly. Then it looped, and looped, and...well you get the idea. Phone no longer actually booted!
No problem I thought, I'll get a flashable zip and flash a new animation using the recovery console (Amon_RA's). Did that, and it changed the animation OK, but still no dice on the OS loading (waited 10 mins plus to be sure).
For info, the animations were the pc-style one from Superbad Eclair and the CM6 one for the N1 (big X with the little android in the middle). Both worked fine and didn't freeze or anything, but they won't stop looping.
Tried the recovery console, but my linux exp. is limited and I didn't manage to access /data/local to delete bootanimation.zip (can cd to data but ls in data shows nothing - I guess it's coz I'm in recovery).
Getting a little worried here - can someone please suggest a solution that doesn't involve re-flashing CM6?
UPDATE: Tried flashing two more anims (R2D2 and Matrix from this forum) and no dice - Nexus 1-style animation stays. Basically, I've made no progress and I'm more confused.
UPDATE 2: Ah well I got too impatient and re-flashed CM6. Jeez there are a lot of settings to change. Anyhoo, will leave thread here for a bit in the hope that someone tells me what the issue was, so I can change my boot animation in future w/o fear.
The problem I think ur having was u copied it to the local file ur suppsed to install it straight onto the sd then open emulator and enter
Su
Cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /data/local/
Reboot
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App
I had the same issue. All I did was
I used abd push bootanimation.zip data/local/ "to install"
adb shell
#rm /data/local/bootanimation.zip
You can actually still do it even though the boot animation is running.
Freaked me out i didn't want to start over on Angry Birds.

[MOD/GUIDE]This is HOW TO Remove HTC Lockscreen and Get Default Android one.

Hello Everyone,
This is Just a small and easy mod/guide for all those who want Default Android Lockscreen and like me hate the HTC slide down Lockscreen:
Usual Warning : I am not responsible if by doing the steps below ::
You brick your phone (Highly unlikely if you follow only given steps).
Your GF starts loving your phone and wants it.
Your GF gets pregnant. Its you who did it .. well hopefully
Let's not delete your lockscreen just keep it in case you want it back. yeah yeah i am all for safety just like my rom.
(Always be safe)
STEP BY STEP GUIDE​
Connect your phone and use ROM manager to reboot into recovery alternatively you can disconnect your phone reboot into recovery (vol down+power) and then connect your cable when you can see the green text.
Select partition menu or mount ** (dont remember the option its mount something something) depending on your recovery version and Mount system
Now i hope you know how to use adb. (Download and install android sdk)
Open command prompt (cd "path to android-sdk-windows/tools" without quotes) on my pc for example it is
Code:
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
If you're on LINUX i am sure you know what to do.next all instructions are same:for Windows and Linux
Run following commands
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
mv HtcLockScreen.apk HtcLockScreen.bak
exit
Now you will get a nice transparent default android lockscreen.
In case you want your stock HTC lockscreen back do this
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
mv HtcLockScreen.bak HtcLockScreen.apk
exit
I have tried this with SUnAaBh ROM and it works flawlessly and ideally should work with every ROM including those not meant for HTC Wildfire.
The suggestion in the next post i.e post No.2 will cause your framework to change i.e your Theme and look of icons on notification bar, dropdown bar, battery icon etc SO to Preserve your framework just INSTALL THIS FILE..its same from attachment.
Hit Thanks if it helped.
This doesnt fix the Alarm clock bug that appears when removing the HTC lockscreen.
This does:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10192875&postcount=2
Using it on Wildpuzzle 0.1 with no problems.
Will using this work:
- If you set a alarm ( for waking up or something ), does it work then?
- If you start Angry Birds, to make it working I must power off my screen, go to lockscreen and unlock it. And then I could play. Does this work too with this lockscreen?
Thanks in advance!

I've tried this a minute ago! And it's really simple.
1. Download the android-sdk-windows folder and place it anywhere
2. start cmd.exe ( open it via start > cmd.exe )
2. Enter: cd: C:\whatever\whatever\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
3. enter: adb.exe
4. then enter the things from the first page ( the adb commands )
5. unmount system ( ! ) on phone
6. reboot phone.
And you got it! I really don't ever used adb! So it's really simple with instructions. Maybe you could include my instructions?
can somebody show screenshot with default screen lock and htc? because i dont understand know about what are you talking. I had one screen lock since i bought mob with 2.1 android and know i have other one with 2.2. / 2.3 android. I nothing changed, nothing deleted and i like it.

"Stuck" on Nexus Prime boot animation

Hi,
I've downloaded and installed though recovery mode the boot animation from Nexus Prime on my Galaxy S but now that animation doesn't leave my screen anymore, it keeps running in the foreground even after boot is complete. I can feel and "interact" with the home screen in the background but I'm totally blind.
Already attempt to install Samsung stock boot animation back and also other ones without any success. Prime animation is still there.
Anyone here had the same issue or know some smarter and better way to remove this without have to install custom rom back? Unfortunately I don't have a backup for everything :/ (lessons learned)
Appreciate your attention and help!
- Willian
Get to recovery and try connect your phone via adb, then replace the boot animation... But it sounds like the boot animation may not be the issue...
I've tried to mount /system and move the boot animation to /system/media without any luck, getting 'permission denied' everytime.
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb push GalaxyS-Edify.zip /system/media/
failed to copy 'GalaxyS-Edify.zip' to '/system/media//GalaxyS-Edify.zip': Permis
sion denied

Click to collapse
/system/media $ mv /sdcard/GalaxyS-Edify.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
mv /sdcard/GalaxyS-Edify.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip

Any idea?
Thanks again!
You could try to make an update.zip which replaces the nexus prime bootanimation with the stock one.
I'll give a try. First time creating an update.zip but let's see if it works.
Thank you.
Nothing ;/
unless I've made something wrong
Im not too familiar with adb but ill give it a shot... Btw you have root and busybox installed?
Get to recovery..hopefully debug is on, plug it in..
Get to platform-tools as you did, then type
adb devices (you should see your device, if not close it all and install the drivers again from kies, then try again...)
type the following, after you have got to platform-tools using the cd command
adb shell mount /system
nothing should show up
you know where the bootanimation is? if not find it, using "adb shell ls /" this will show all the directories, carry on searching it till you find it
next you want to move it so like you did...or like this
"adb shell rm /system/media/bootanimation.zip"
Now check its gone, using the ls command
now put yours in.. rename it to bootanimation.zip
"adb push C:\your full directory of where it is with bootanimation.zip /system/media"
and it should say that its gone....
hopefully that all works..
let us know
Hey Talon, thanks for helping me out, really appreciate!
Hmm, yes for root but no quite sure about busybox now.
I found bootanimation.zip inside /system/media and there's also a bootanimation file inside /system/bin but not quite sure what it's used for.
Got a permission problem when trying to remove the .zip file:
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb shell rm -f /system/media/bootanimatio
n.zip
rm: can't remove '/system/media/bootanimation.zip': Permission denied
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb shell chmod 755 /system/media/bootanim
ation.zip
chmod: /system/media/bootanimation.zip: Operation not permitted
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What am I missing?
Regards.
Ok maybe you know more about these commands but why did you type "-f" after rm? have you tried without it?
In the second box you were trying to change permission (had to search that ) why not change it to 777 for full, and instead apply it to the directory, so the media folder then try...
have you tried just pushing the new file to the media folder?
Btw why not just try flash a new rom either through recovery or odin. I guess you can try this so you don't loose anything, but i think that would be the simplest of things to do. You will loose apps and settings, but int sd should still be there.
Anyway see how that goes...
Just seen this says to remove you can use "adb shell rm -r" so add "-r" instead of the f that you did.
Oh and lastly, if you still cant do that, try copy the whole media folder, make sure you have everything by using ls /system/media then try remove the media file and put it all back with your new boot animation.. (dont forget to rename the bootanimation
Not really, just a few commands. The "-f" just removes the file without the need to confirm your action but no enough permission to perform such action and I'm not able to change this.
I have been trying many ways to move the file to the media folder but could not find one that works yet.
Hmm, I would like to avoid that :/ but maybe it's the only way.
I think my problem here is that I can't get superuser access. When I type "su" I just get a segmentation fault message. Couldn't find a way to fix that yet.
Thanks.

Try to flash this update.zip threw your cwm, just go to install zip from sdcard and choose the update.zip, sure first you have to copy it to your sdcrad . (i've tested it, for me everything worked fine)
hope i was able to help
