sorry for the packaging error

I just tried to flash through metamorph its saying that it doesn't have a certain file for ot to be flashed through metamorph

Yeah I tried it and I get the samething.

The theme control file exists in the .ZIP, but Metamorph isn't picking it up. Even if I place the .THM file and .ZIP in the AndroidThemes folder on my SD... NO WORKIE!

how to get this to work in metamorph:
1) After u download this file to ur SD, use a file manager such as EStrongs Filemanager.
2) Find the .zip file that you just previously downloaded, click and choose to unzip/extract it.
3) Find the new folder u just extracted to and open it.
4) U will c 2 folders. Delete the Mac one & copy the other to AndroidThemes (located in the root of SD card).
5) Open Metamorph, click Open Existing, find the folder again and then then .thm file.

well... I got this to work, but must say that the image quality is really poor. It looks sorta 8-Bit on my MT3G...
are there any other boot animations available for metamorph?

I can wipe, flash and fully restore my android in less than 5 minutes. . HAAH XD

WTF??
good thing i created a back-up before i applied this piece. . theres a hidden (no data) file that screws up the entire sytem. . wipes all critical files and everything is FC. . plus the image quality sucks !
Mod Edit...post cleaned up

Downanimation is for when you power off the phone. You can leave that alone.
Yes if you do not rename the old bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zipold it will over write the old file.

now how do i get it from the pc and into the actual system file??? not the sd card
edit!!!!!!!! nvm got it in there!!!!!!11
Edit 2!!!!!!!!!!!!! now it tells me i cant move it into the system/media???

You can push it through ADB if you have it installed but I don't want to confuse you.
1. Plug your phone into the computer. Mount disk drive. ( depending what rom you have you might have to put it in internet pass through mode then usb disk drive)
2. Drag the file onto the sd card. Unmount phone.
3. Using your favorite file manager( RECOMEND ROOT EXPLORER!!) move the bootanimation.zip from the sd card into the correct file folder.
4. With root explorer the correct file system should /system/media folder
inside the media file folder will be the old bootanimation.( rename it to bootanimation.zipold
5. paste new bootanimation.zip reboot and enjoy

Make sure root explorer is not mounted as read only. toggle it in the upper right corner

it wont let me rename move or copy from sd into sytem on file manager but im going to look into root explorer... thats a pay for app right?

Yes but it is worth ever penny and a rooted users best friend. You only have to pay for it once and will transfer to another device in the future with your gmail account. I have five devices that have my gmail account and all of them have my paid apps.

still tells me that i cant rename and or copy or move!!!! WTF!!!! lol.. u think i can flash this??
Edit and i cant get root explorer yet!!!! lol but file manager everything shows up like i can just flash it like a rom??? wht you think?

I made a flashable zip. I'll upload it in alittle bit

Silent camera shutter. Its still not silent??

Hi guys!
First off sorry for making a new thread about this. I read 3 or 4 on the subject but Im still having no luck.
I dont want to have to mute the volume everytime I want to take a photo
so I prefer changing it in the system.
My model is a Korean Note so that "could" be why I cant diable the shutter sound.
My phone is rooted and in Astro file manager, I went into the appropriate location and added the extension .off, .bak, .backup I tried all three when I tredi to rename the Shutter_01.ogg, and it still doesnt work
Any ideas? Thanks!!!

Try renaming the "ui" directory. If that works, then you'll know it's one of the other OGG files in there. Then if that works, look for something camera-related. I think different ROMs use different sound files.

Which file explorer are you using? Even though your Note is rooted, the file explorer you use still has to run as root (e.g. Root Explorer).
I think in my ui directory, I have a few sound files beginning with "camera". You could try renaming those one at a time (if you have them).

delete Shutter_01.ogg at system/media/audio/ui
edit: sorry didnt read all your post and if u deleted that file it shouldnt give any sound while taking photo,strange :/

Broken Out Revo - Boot Sound

I found how get boot sounds on my Revo with BrokenOut. Here are the steps I used.
1) Find whatever music file you like (should fairly be short)
2) Convert it to an ogg file with your favorite music editor.
3) Rename the file you just created to VZW_PowerOn.ogg
4) Mount System as R/W if is R/O
5) Put the VZW_PowerOn.ogg file into /system/sounds/power
6) Reboot
Please let me know how works!
Thanks
Here is a screenshot while in Root Explorer.

It didn't work for me. I skipped Step 4 - I was able to create the /power directory and rename the .ogg file and put it in there, so I didn't think I needed to do Step 4. Is that where it went wrong? Let me know, as I think it'd be great to have a boot sound!

I added a screenshot to the original post above while inside Root Explorer.
This is for Broken Out. If you are using a different rom I can't help.
Another problem could be that the sound is too long. I would keep it under 15 sec.
Make sure the sound plays correctly on your phone before restarting.
Have a look at the screenshot. Make sure the sound is in the correct location.
Hope this helps!

works for me.

I am on BO and using Super Manager I do not have the extension of for power that you show in the screenshot.
I can get system/sounds/effect. It shows LowBatteryM3.ogg but does not show a power option. Any thoughts?

Just make the necessary folder and put the sound inside.

Need help updating
I would love to be able to update my revolution from gingervolt 2.0 to Broken Out Revo but unfortunately every link to the vz7 rom takes me to a dead end. This is becoming very frustrating, could someone please provide a link to download vz7 that actually works?

>>>>[BOOTANIMATION]<<<[FLASHABLE] made from the nexus 6p commercial
I was bored/ unemployed and decided to turn the nexus 6p commercial into a bootanimation.
Just replace your original from system/media ( make sure you keep the original in a safe place) change permission to rw-r--r--.
Hit like if you like. Hit donate if you want too. The attached .gif is not the actual boot animation just a preview made for this post.
Here is the video used to create the boot:

If you have any request I'm willing to custom make one for you, since I'm unemployed and bored, only 30 Sec video clips please. Or any recommendations?
****UPDATE*** added FLASHABLE.ZIP

I flashed your zip file but it didn't change anything. I have been trying to flash a custom boot animation with audio for a few days and I can't seem to get it to stick. I've even used Rom Toolbox to flash but animations but all that I've achieved is actually losing my standard boot animation.
Can you please help?

Would you like the stock boot back? ( ALWAYS KEEP IT IN A SAFE PLACE) I'll post it below . I just noticed theres an Error in the flashable.Zip. (To add sound to your bootanimation you must save an .ogg file in the same folder and code it into the animation) .Use root explorer to replace whatever boot animation you have in the SYSTEM>MEDIA folder and edit permission to rwxr--r--

Thanks, I appreciate you helping me with the stock animation.
Can you help me figure out why the hell I can't get any other boot animations to work?

Are you doing it manually? Flashable? Or with an app?

I've tried all 3. I just can't get any of the boot animations I create to stick.

Ate you setting the right permissions? Rwxr--r-- and if that isn't working try rw-r--r--

I'm trying to create an iron man boot animation with audio. I included the audio file inside the zip file for you to see.
I hadn't thought about the permissions so I'll go check those out.

Yes permissions must be set in root explorer for the manual method to work. I will check yours out

after my initial research your png files in each folder must be consecutive i.e P1 000.png-070.png P2 071.png - 139.png Etc..... they must be consecutive. you started from zero in each Part. 70 .png per folder

If you send me your original image files ill compile them for you i just dont want to go back through and rename all your files since you already have them. ship it to me in one bulk folder

I've attached a zip file with all of the images. I renamed each one to be in exact numerical order starting at 000 and going in increments of 001.
I placed that zip file with the desc.txt file into system/media and set the permissions at 0744(rxwr--r--).
It still didn't work.... Is there a limit to how many images can be in one folder?
I attached the zip in question to this post so you can see.

I also tried setting the permissions to 0644(rw-r--r--) and that didn't work either
