Changing Bootanimation/Startup sound

Hi I have a rooted Nexus One FRF91 Build
I want to change the bootanimation and startupsound
I was able to change the bootanimation through ADB because the ROOT version was not working.
Same with the startup sound, is it even possible to have a startup sound on a nexus one?
Guide would be nice, also is there some secret thing I need to know, I am rooted tried the guides but it did not work.

Take whatever bootanimation you want, copy to /system/media/bootanimation.zip (overwrite the system one).
If you want to retain system bootanimation but still overwrite it - copy to /data/local/bootanimation.zip instead (might not work - I'm not sure if it's ROM-specific).
Don't know about the startup sound, living perfectly without one.

My inquiry was based of this (from adroidfourms .com)
I bolded the part I didn't understand/possible reason it is not working for me
PLEASE NOTE: You must be rooted. You must reboot in order for these changes to take effect. You should have Root Explorer (although I am sure there is a way with ADB commands as well though). You may want to create a backup (CWM or the like), just in case. Also, most of the people I have seen do this are running a version of Dirrk's/jt's kernel, which allow boot/shutdown animations to be changed. The kernel you are currently using when attempting to change the animations must allow for them to be changed for this to work.
The file needed to change your boot-up animation should be a .zip file.
I successfully changed my bootup animation by doing the following:
Boot-up animation:
1) download a new boot animation .zip file (I put mine in /sdcard/downloads)
2) open Root Explorer
3) navigate to where you put the new .zip
4) copy the new .zip
5) paste it into /data/local
6) rename it "bootanimation.zip." (if it isn't already)
Also, if you want to change the startup/shutdown sounds:
Startup sound:
1) DL a new sound file
2) convert to a .wav file (using Winamp+.wav converter/iTunes)
3) put on SD card
4) open Root Explorer
5) navigate to /system/etc
6) rename "PowerOn.wav" to "PowerOn.wav.old"
7) navigate to where you placed the DL'ed .wav file
8) copy
9) paste into /system/etc
10) rename it "PowerOn.wav"
Shutdown sound:
1) DL a new sound file
2) convert to .ogg file (I used Winamp+.ogg converter)
3) put on SD card
4) open Root Explorer
5) navigate to /system/media/audio/ui
6) rename "shutdown.ogg" to "shutdown.ogg.old"
7) navigate to the DL'ed .ogg file
8) copy
9) paste into /system/media/audio/ui
10) rename it "shutdown.ogg"

If the animation runs too fast on your phone, edit the desc.txt file in bootanimation.zip and decrease the number 15 to around 8-10 as per your liking

how do i write files in taht directory? ( i downloaded es file explorer/astro file explorer. what should i do? step by step please

Use root explorer.the other 2 you used don't get write permission
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

how do i remove the sound if i had already flash the sound for my boot animation?

use root explorer to browse to /system/customise/resources/ and delete android_audio.mp3
or use adb in command prompt
Code:
adb shell
cd /system/customise/resources/
rm android_audio.mp3
you can always type "ls" after you do /system/customise/resources/ to look for the sound file.

thanks for the quick reply !
my boot animation will hang... but it still can be loaded into android.
any idea how to solve it? i change the framerate from 15 to 10 and it still hang ..

is it one you downloaded or you made? framerate 15 = 15/100th of a second, correct me if im wrong there.

I pasted the file into system->media and on boot the animation was lighting fast so i changed the value from 15 to 8 in that file in the zip, saved and pasted it back into system->media and now i get no boot animation. i then pasted it into data->local and still nothing

[Q] Cannot push file to system folder via adb

I am running the cyanogenmod 6.1.1 alpha 8.3 and I want to replace the bootanimation.zip in the folder system/media with a custom one.
I already have the custom bootanimation.zip but when I tried to push it to the folder it says:
Cannot stat 'bootanimation.zip' : No such file or directory
Yes, I have my files in the tools folder and I've checked (with astro file manager) that the folder exist.
Any help?
and btw I'm new to this and this is what I type to push the file:
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media

1. This can't be done on running system unless /system was remounted RW but it will work if you are in recovery (and /system is mounted)
2. Add full path to bootanimation.zip

You can use a root file manager.

How to Install MOD CALL RECORDING

hi all...
i red a topic regarding call recording in here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1676739 but unfortunately i cant post there since i am new member..
my GNOTE currently settled on LPF STOCK ROM + kernel CFROOT...i've been following the step where to remove the phone.odex and phone_util.odex and flash the file attached on that link..but still not working...
what i've been misses.???
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app

Sometimes flashing doesn't work. In this case you have to put the files manually by using root explorer or similar. I used ES Explorer with root option checked.
1. Download the MOD zip file into your phone.
2. Open ES Explorer and locate the zip file.
3. Unzip it.
4. Delete phone.odex and phone_util.odex from /system/app if you have not done so.
5. Copy the file one by one from the extracted zip folder to phone /system folder. Start with folder /system/lib/hw, then /system/lib, then finally /system/app.
6. Reboot

After manually copying the files, you will need to change the permissions too.

Apparently ES Explorer did that for me. Anyway if your explorer doesn't do that for you, yes please do so otherwise it will not work. You should set it the same as the rest, which is rw,r-,r-.

@kopitalk...have you tested it..??? is it working..???
what kind of file that i have to change the permission..???
could you please tutor me...btw i have root explorer installed...
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app

after i extract the zip file i got 2 folder in there..:
1. META-INF
a. Folder COM
- Folder Android
- METADATA
- Folder GOOGLE
- Folder ANDROID
- Update-Binary
- Updater-Script
- CERT.RSA
- CERT.SF
- MANIFEST.MF
2. SYSTEM
a. Folder APP
- phone.apk
- phone_util.apk
b. Folder LIB
- Folder HW
- audio.primary.exynos4.so
- audio_policy.exynos4.so
c. libaudioflinger.so
above is the hierarchy of that folder...now my question regarding this...which file i have to copy on which folder destination...???
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app

You just need to copy paste the files within /system folder. My guide above only talks about /system folder.
2. SYSTEM
a. Folder APP
- phone.apk --> copy and paste into your phone /system/app/
- phone_util.apk --> copy and paste into your phone /system/app/
b. Folder LIB
- Folder HW
- audio.primary.exynos4.so --> copy and paste into your phone /system/lib/hw/
- audio_policy.exynos4.so --> copy and paste into your phone /system/lib/hw/
c. libaudioflinger.so --> copy and paste into your phone /system/lib/
And yes, I have tested it to be working fine with LP9 and LPA (should be for the rest as well).

kopitalk....thank in advance for your feedback...btw which file i have change the permission..??? all of them on system folder or just phone.apk and phone_util.apk...???
i'll give a try...

[Q] 4.2.2 Change Bootanimation Carbon Rom

Hy boardmembers,
i use carbon rom 1.6.
Very good rom, but i want a other bootanimation.
I try this:
- download one of the two bootanimations (the simplistic one is worth it)
- extract the rar contents : bootanimation.zip file, do not extract the zip file
- put the bootanimation.zip file in your /system/media or /data/local folder
- on reboot, you get the new animation.
But it dont work
Please write what i have to do...
Maybe i have do delete the data inside the folders first?
/data/local = folder /tmp
and = data = zipalignedapk
/system/media = folder /audio
and data = LMprec_508.emd, PFFprec_600.emd
THX in advance

first find where is original bootanimation.zip, in your /system/media or /data/local folder

hy,
thanks for your feedback.
I found the mistake:
right folder:
/data/local
but i have to set the permissions for the bootanimation.zip!
thread can be closed.

How did you go about giving it permission, I didn't see any setting for this... Thanks

use any root explorer. right click on the file and choose permissions / properties and you will see the settings.. rw-r--r--
