Before anyone reads the following instructions, I would like to point out that THESE INSTRUCTIONS WERE MADE BY makbil, I only thought that since it was only a post in a thread it would take a lot of time to find it, credits all go to him!
Here is a short guide for those who want to change their boot up sound.
1- Find your dream file and convert it to ogg format (Google will be very helpful in finding free converters).
2- Rename the converted file to: android_audio.mp3
3- Copy the converted & renamed file to your SD card.
4- Using "Root Explorer" go to /data/local (Astro does not work, it will not show root folders)
5- View the permissions for android_audio.mp3 there (It's read for all and read/write for user)
6- Delete android_audio.mp3
7- Copy android_audio.mp3 from your SDcard to /data/local.
8- Check permissions and change to the previously observed values.
9- Exit Root Explorer.
10- Reboot (nornal)
Enjoy your new boot sound
Again, credit goes to makbil.
Ah, very nice... unfortunately it's only for around 17 secs, whereas my boot animation is for about 25secs... anyway for us to make it match the duration of the boot animation?
Try slowing down the sound very slightly so it lasts longer, or you could add something extra at the end?
The sound file is just under 1 minute in length so it could not be that...
Well you don't need a sound file that lasts just under 1 min if your animation is only 25 secs, try shortening it
I just cut the audio file to 25s but the music still stops around 16/17s into the boot animation. Maybe there is a duration limit?
There is no time limit, because I moved there a song which lasts over six minutes. The song will stop when system is ready, of course!
You can set also downanimation sound, if You go to /system/customize/CID/ and open default.xml. Open it and cp text
audio="/data/local/android_audio.mp3" /> between
<ShutdownAnimation image_png="/system/customize/resource/downanimation.zip"
and
fps="15" />
Like this:
<ShutdownAnimation image_png="/system/customize/resource/downanimation.zip"
audio="/data/local/youraudioname.mp3" fps="15" />
And You must not convert your song. It is enough, if it is mp3.
I will try this again after submitting this..

Keeping it mp3 instead of ogg fixed it. It now plays until the boot animation finishes or system becomes ready.
No success with this. I am running LeeDroid v 2.5 final. I have tried the steps you mentioned above and couldn't get this to work. Does this require re-flashing the ROM??
Will this work on a Evo 3d?
No success either for me. I'm running Beatmod Bliss Sense Hybrid
Hi guys,
im currently using netdrg`s sense theme http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048792
Now i changed all the green elements of the framework-res.apk to blue. Ive done everything so far, but i have no clue how to edit the color of the progress bar. (the bar when u change the volume, download something and so on...)
Ive heard that u have to edit an xml file, but as i have no clue about editing these files, i want to ask for a little favour.
Ive attached the xml file, and the color which i will use is 1761ab (hex).
So ill thank the guy who will do this for me a thousand times and i can share the theme with you afterwards!
lg l
In order to edit this xml file you need to decompile framework-res.apk. You can use apk_manager. Once the framework has been decompiled you can easily change the hex color for the progress bar (remember that the first 2 digit are for alpha channel). After that you need to recompile the framework. Actually there is another way to do that, but it‘s a bit triky as you need to modify the xmls file by using an hex editor..
If you want i can modify and compile the xml attached for you! Let me know m8
hey, thanks for your answer.
I put the framework-res.apk in the "place here for modding" folder, opened the script and hit 9 to decompile.
Then i edited all the values in the xml file in the "projects" folder and saved it.
Now i compile it, delete the file i edited in the "keep" folder and that other file mentioned.
Now i tried to apply the compiled framework_res.apk back to the system which results in a bootloop, what am i doin wrong?

Ok, you are getting close to the solution
Once you got the unsignedframework.zip inside the place-apk-here-for-modding folder, you have to do a little trick in order to get it working...
Unzip all the content of the "unsignedframework-res.apk". You should have 5 objects (3 folders, 2 files).
Zip these files with Winrar/Winzip (whatever) but you must choose "No compression (store)" method to zip it.
Rename this zip into "framework-res.apk".
Put it into an update.zip and it should be OK to flash trough the recovery mode.
keep me updated
I'm on 2 different AHD. 1 has CM 10.1 RC2/4.2.2 & the other has CM 10.2/4.3. I got the same custom boot animation on both. Its the red umbrella. Any way to add sound?

The apps:
First you will need a couple apps. You will need absolute system, root explorer and file converter. You can get them from the android market, just do a search for them. They're not free but if you know anything about root you probably already have root explorer and maybe even absolute system, but you will need file converter by ice cold apps.
The programs:
Again if you know anything or a decent amount about root you probably already have these programs but if not then download them. You will need 7Zip (preferably 7Zip) because as far as I know it is one of the only if not the only program that can zip files correctly WITHOUT compression which is mandatory because if there is any compression applied to the bootanimatiom.zip file OT WILL NOT WORK! You will also need either GVIM or Editor++ in order to properly edit the desc.txt file in the bootanimation.zip which we all know is what makes the boot animation work and if that is not configured correctly then, well, you're gonna be throwing things.
The method:
1.
Find the boot animation you want and download it using absolute system or from whatever source, whether it be from a forum thread or whatever. If you download it from a source other than absolute system you have to make sure before applying it you have to place it on the root of your sd card and make sure it is not named bootanimation.zip if there are other boot animations on your sd card because if they are named the same, obviously, they will overwrite eachother so name them however you want.
2.
Find the sound you want to use, it can be any sound file as long as it's short enough (or not) to play completely on boot. Download it, place it in your sd card and open the file converter app. Use file converter to find the file and once you've found and selected it select to convert it to .ogg. It MUST be converted to .ogg or it WILL NOT work. Once it is converted find the converted version ("sound".ogg or "whatever you named it".ogg) and use root explorer to move it to /sytem/media and leave it there for now.
3.
Plug your phone in to your computer, make sure USB debugging is enabled, and put your phone into USB mass storage mode once your phone is connected. Open up the files from your sd card on your computer and find the boot animation .zip you are going to change and move it to your computer. Next open up 7Zip and find the boot animation .zip file you just moved. Select the file and extract it to wherever you want to on your computer. Once you have extracted the .zip files with 7Zip go to the extracted files on your computer.
Note: (This next part will save the edited version as the orginal version so if you want to make a backup before you edit it just rename however you want or copy it into a separate folder named desc backup.)
4.
Right click on the extracted desc.txt file from the boot animation amd right click on it. Once you right click you will see an option that says either "edit with Editor++" or "edit with VIM" depending on which program you decided on (I prefer Editor++). Select the option and it will open up the desc.txt in your editor of choice. There may be a lost of guidelines in the desc.txt file for editing parts of the desc.txt but this is usually only in stock boot animations. Decide where you want the sound file to play and comment in the sound file you want to use by adding a line under the part you choose it to play at by typing "s 'sound'.ogg" DO NOT type what I wrote verbatim, the name 'sound' is just to give an example. Here is an example of a desc.txt file that has been edited to have sound:
(The red part is the sound line)
Quote:
# 540 wide, 960 tall 10 frames per second
540 960 10
# p means we're defining a part
# first number is repeat count, 0 means infinite
# second number is delay in frames before performing the next part
# so if you are playing 15 frames a second 15 would be... one second
# string defines the directory to load files from
# files will be loaded in order but names don't matter
# s defines a sound for a part
# sounds will be loaded from /system/media
# oggs with loop points will loop automatically
# only one sound will play at a time
# timing is driven by the part, not the sounds
# if you want no sound, leave blank
# droid
p 1 0 01_droid
s Fusion.ogg
# fusion
p 1 0 02_fusion
# mobility
p 1 0 03_mobility
# loop
p 0 0 04_loop
Notice the name of the sound in the desc.txt file is the same as the one I want to use. I hate to sound like I'm trying to make you feel stupid, which I am most definitely not, I just want to make sure this is detailed enough for anyone to follow.
4. Continued:
Once you have commented in the sound line, and you can add as many as you want just make sure you read the guidelines in the example desc.txt file above, save the file and exit your editor.
5. Open 7Zip and find the extracted boot animation files again with the edited desc.txt file. Make sure that the only files showing up in 7Zip are the boot animation files you extracted including the original desc.txt file that was edited and only that edited one, not the backup if you made one. In the menu bar on the 7Zip program click on "edit" and click on "select all" in the drop down menu that pops up. Next click "file" in the menu bar, move your cursor to the 7Zip option and when the drop down menu pops up click on "add to archive..." Then when the window pops up just change the name to whatever you want, select "zip" in the Archive format drop down menu, select "store" in the compression level drop down menu (you must select store or the boot animation .zip file you are creating will be compressed and as I mentioned above it won't work with compression) and then click "OK" to create the .zip file. Once it is created go ahead and move it onto the root of your sd card.
6. Unplug your phone from your computer and once the sd card is mounted open up absolute system. Go to boot animations and press menu and selct "boot animation editor." Press menu again and select "import from sd card." Find the boot animation you edited and slect it. Pres menu once it brings up the window with all the .png images and select "import" and when the window pops up prompting you to name the bootanimatiom just name it however you want and select "import." In order for the boot animation you edited to show up in your list of downloaded boot animations in absolute system you must first close absolute system and reopen it, go into boot animation editor again and it should be there. Select your edited boot animation and when it opens up the window with all the .png images press menu and select "desc.txt editor" which will open up the desc.txt file in absolute systems own editor. Scroll down untill you see the "s" line you commented in and press on it, this will open up a small window prompting you to choose the file from either /data/local or /system/media. Selct to choos from /system/media and there will be a list of .ogg files to choose from (if there are more than one you put in there). Select which one you want to play for that line. This is just to make sure the bootanimation.zip is using the right .ogg file and so your phone knows where to play it from on boot. You can change these if you want but you cannot comment lines in or out using absolute system. Once you have finished making changes or confirming the sound files press menu and select "save changes." Once it's done saving the changes press back.
NOTE: THIS NEXT PART IS VERY IMPORTANT AND MUST BE DONE EXACTLY AS I HAVE WRITTEN, IN THE EXACT SAME SEQUENCE I AM GIVING YOU.
7.Sorry for yelling hehe. Once absolute system is done saving the desc.txt file and you have pressed back to re-enter the .png images window in absolute system press home and open up root explorer. In root explorer go to /system/media where you placed your .ogg files and move them again into /system/media/audio/notifications and press home key again. Open absolute system and install the boot animation to /data/local by selecting change install location and selecting "/data/local" and reboot your phone. If the sound does not play, which it should, install the boot animation in BOTH /data/local AND /system/media using absolute system.
You should now have sound along with your boot animation. I hope you all have fun adding crazy sounds to your boot animations. The thanks button is always happy when you press it!

For some reason when i try and use bootanimation editor with absolute system, it force closes and unroots my phone so, I gotta go to recovery and erase & restore. I've just been business ES for a explorer cause it does everything I need it to, I think but as far as 7-zip & store on a PC and put it back on card, I got that down.
Did you get it working? I know you don't have to use the programs they are requesting as I used what works for me so you can do the same. I will however say the boot sound annoyed me so In the end I removed it.

Naw. Never got it. I love music. I have 50,000 songs on a hard drive and I like to theme my phones to a certain artist, including splash and boot. I've got two AHD and was gonna do 2 different ones but, without the sound.....

7.Sorry for yelling hehe. Once absolute system is done saving the desc.txt file and you have pressed back to re-enter the .png images window in absolute system press home and open up root explorer. In root explorer go to /system/media where you placed your .ogg files and move them again into /system/media/audio/notifications and press home key again. Open absolute system and install the boot animation to /data/local by selecting change install location and selecting "/data/local" and reboot your phone. If the sound does not play, which it should, install the boot animation in BOTH /data/local AND /system/media using absolute system.
You should now have sound along with your boot animation. I hope you all have fun adding crazy sounds to your boot animations. The thanks button is always happy when you press it!

Notepad ++ is perfect for this job.
The P means we're defining a part
S defines a sound for a part.
So, what you have there is a boot logo with no sound.
I wish I could help you further, but you need to read the tutorial and post your issue if any and I'll help...
Let me give you a tip 4.11 stock rom's boot logo comes with sound so all I did was edit it with a new boot logo and my own sound. I guess this might be lazy, but it was fast and simple and I ended up dumping the sound about a week later. Annoying!

OK, I'm using OSE ROM now and I did everything except for using absolute system. Mine goes
p 0 0 part0
s att_pu.ogg
att_pu.ogg is what I named my sound and both bootanimation.zip & att_pu.ogg are in /system/media/. Still no sound.

Hi all,
I recently brough MI3, everything about phone was good except volume from headphones were very low,
Since many review called it as "Apple of China" i expected lot about volume,
I found a thread miui.com about volume increase,
Normally i done it by editing snd_soc_msm_2x file in my previous s4 mini and xperia sp but MI3 doesn't have it,
The file which has to be edit is "system/etc/mixer_paths_3_2_forte"
Steps:
1. Root your device
2. Download any root explorer
3. Goto to "System/etc"
4. Open "mixer_paths_3_2_forte" file
5. In that file Search for "<path name="headphones">"
6. Below that there will be two line
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="84" />
7. Change value to higher as per ur needs, i set "90"
8. Now save that file and Reboot your Phone.
Alternatively,
Copy that file "mixer_paths_3_2_forte" to pc,
Edit with Notepad++
Replace again in "system/etc" by overwriting old one
Or,
I have attached Edited file which is set to "value=90"
Just download and replace it.
You can change other values like speaker and other anc-headphone or earpiece volume also.
I really don't what other files regardless of "mixer_paths_3_2_forte" of same name do.
Enjoy.
BEFORE YOU REBOOT YOUR PHONE MAKE SURE THAT FILE HAS PROPER PERMISSION "rw-r-r", ELSE YOU WILL END UP WITH BOOTLOOP
I found this method at http://www.miui.com/thread-1836269-1-1.html.

Not works on latest firmware, Can some one post original file of it.
This works fine, been using it since I got my Mi3 around the start of the year. I also change the the hphl and hphr volume from between 35-50 and change the TI PA Gain value from between 30-50 anymore and in will sound awful. But that will increase the volume a notable amount.
Thanks for that, works OK for me!
How to increase microphone volume in calls?
No sound for I've done this mod.
I've tried to edit file manually and set the value to 90.
When I restart "no volume" and the settings > sound application is crashing.
I've tried to copy and paste your file too and same thing.
Finally I tried to restore the file "source copy & source paste" and same error occur.
Is this an encoding problem ?
I do not know how to restore the original file and I have no more sound at all on my Xiaomi .
I am using the dev rom (build number : KTU84P).

Check the permission is properly set for the file, it should be rw-r-r
I checked it already but something appear to be strange with perms on xiaomi mi3.
I see rw-r-r but when I try to edit the file it tells me that "file is read-only. Do I want to set it read/write to edit".
I reply all, set my update 84 => 90 then save and exit.
Reboot ... no sound and Settings => Sounds is crashing.
I did not try furthermore and I flashed it my MI3 with the new dev rom.
Sound back and I did not try to modify the file again.
By the way thanks for your help.
please can you write what i need to change to increase speaker soung. (ringtone, music or everything via speaker)
What should be edited in the file to increase in-call volume? TIA!
Can you increase music volume similarly ?

Also you can use ViPER4Android to do this and also change a lot of different setting to improve audio quality.
I don't if it works with call volume though.
I made this mod over 2 years ago for Moto G3 and it has been requested that I bring it over to G5 now. Enjoy!!
This mod should be compatible with the entire Moto G5 family, as usual.
Use at your own risk!
Drop the file in /vendor/etc, rename to mixer_paths.xml, and change permissions to rw-r--r--
To revert, use the stock (84) xml file provided, rename to mixer_paths.xml, set permissions rw-r--r-- and reboot
You must reboot for changes to apply. This is a TOTAL volume mod!! it will boost every volume on the device.
Default value is 84, I set it at 90. I like my music extremely loud. I do not own this device, so no further mods will be provided, aside from necessary updates for maintained compatibility. If 90 is too loud, you have a volume down button.
thanks I did it and it worked, but then I uploaded it to 100 subi for me it was still very low volume
where to download the file?
