I installed the leaked OTA and have tried to delete the android_audio.mp3 for the boot animation but I still get the "droid" sound on bootup. I deleted it from /system/media as that is the only place I could find it. Anyone have any ideas on how to disable the sound.
Thanks
did you do it with adb shell and while in recovery?
Yup

do you want to delete it or change it to a different one? here's an mp3 with no sound if you can't delete it. just make sure you unzip it before pushing it to /data/local/

Hey guys. I know this is about and around, but we got the sound working on boot (the "DROID" noise). So here's how you do it:
1. download both files below
2. UNZIP the "android_audio.zip" file, put the audio file in your sdk/tools folder
3. leave the "bootanimation.zip" file zipped, put in your sdk/tools folder
4. go into adb and push both files as follows:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
adb push android_audio.mp3 /data/local
adb reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This should work; if anyone has problems let me know.
ENJOY!
***UPDATE***
If you're still having issues with the sound not working, first make sure that you are unzipping the "android_audio" file...then pushing the .mp3 contained within the zip file.
Second, if it still doesn't work, try this in adb:
cd data
cd local
rm android_audio.mp3
rm bootanimation.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then repush the two files!
works like a charm!!
is this supposed to replace the vzw animation? i followed and i dont see anything different. under my data folder in astro nothign is there just data dir and thats it no local
Worked like a charm for me... thanks...
both files successfully push. the animation works but no audio plays. any suggestions?
very nice love it
nice work, thank you
Thanks looks really good.

parkson, rinse, wash repeat, your doing something wrong, do it from inside adb on computer
When I do:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
adb push android_audio.mp3 /data/local
I get:
/sbin/sh: adb: not found
Now what?
*EDIT*
I figured it out. Was trying to do this in Clockwork Mod recovery. Had to change to disk drive mode while the phone is running.
do we just need to delete these files to go back?

Will this sound work on the DINC? I have the boot animation but have not installed the sound yet.
yup it works thanks.
I keep getting adb: not found
EDIT:
Fixed it from irc, thanks guys.
Just did
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
without the adb shell
i kept getting permission denied doing it through adb, but doing it in root explorer worked perfect, audio and boot animation are great
Does any one have the sound working?
will this work on the incredible?

I have the animation working just not the audio on the Inc, any help?
Has anyone tried changing the bootanimation yet like the Vibrant? If you did; did you use the same steps as the Vibrant?
I've already changed my boot sound and shutdown sound using SGS Tools 4.1.9
Yep I removed the bootdown animations just like the directions were for the vibrant.
Also replaced the QMG file for startup with the i9000 qmg file.

Cool. Did you replace them with bootanimation.zip or a different method? Can you provide me the link to the method you did?
Anyone change boot animations??

I changed the /system/media/video/shutdown folder to /system/media/video/shutdownbackup.
Basically it just shows the "Powering Down" with the wheel spinning now. You can do a custom powering down screen if you put a sequence of PNG's like there is in the shutdown folder currently.
In regards to the boot up animation, I basically accessed /system/media to move the existing bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg to my SD card.
Then downloaded the default i9000 qmg files from: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...t-software-not-suck/page__p__36615#entry36615
you probably will get an error when you try to move the bootsamsung.qmg and loop qmg file but it still moves them to the SD card.
I also found that you have to specify the device name via adb devices, when you try to do a mount of the system for read write access.
If you get errors trying to move the original animation files from the media folder to the SD you can always just do a rm too. It will remove them completely. Honestly I don't plan on putting them back.
Commands to run from adb:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount [devicenamehere] /system
busybox mv /system/media/bootsamsung.qmg /sdcard/backupanimations
busybox mv /system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg /sdcard/backupanimations
busybox mv /sdcard/bootsamsung.qmg /system/media
busybox mv /sdcard/bootsamsungloop.qmg /system/media
Here is a kernel that will allow Bootanimation support.
Steps
Must be rooted
Delete the Samsungboot .qmg files from /system/media
Push a custom bootanimation.zip to /system/media
Delete the PowerOn sound files from /system/etc
Flash Kernel with ODIN
Put phone into Download Mode
DO NOT CHECK REPARTITION. DO NOT USE A PIT
Put the downloaded .tar in the PDA SLOT
Flash away.

good stuff Krylon!
Already got it worked into the new rom, thanks Krylon!
I pushed bootanimation.zip but all I get is a blank screen
Ok noob question. What does this do? TIA

If you have to ask, I'm not exactly sure you should try flashing it. But what it does is enables you to use custom boot screens.

If you look at the directions the Krylon posted. they tell you where to delete the old power on sounds. I would imagine that you could copy a new sound file in that directory.
"Steps

Delete the Samsungboot .qmg files from /system/media
Push a custom bootanimation.zip to /system/media
Delete the PowerOn sound files from /system/etc"

Did you get (Custom) boot sound?
If things are screwed up you can always just re-flash with Odin

Its strange, I can see that the old bootsound was in wav format. However, the shutdown is in another location and it is .ogg format.
I believe that maybe the bootanimation.zip needs to contain the audio for it or at least need to somehow be linked.
Krylon know I bet?

he mapped it to a directory or change the name of the file that the kernel reads.
Im a noob, never rooted or flashed my phone b4 so that is why I'm trying to learn what mods provide what function on the phone. Thanks for answering my question.

Sir krylon
Glad to be able to see someone who enjoys messing with electronics as much as we do!!!! Keep up the great work and as always looking forward to a GRRRREAT ROM
Will this update only the kernel? Or is it going to wipe all my phone's data (apps, settings, etc)?
Just update that kernel ;0)
Well
good work krylon
questions
/system/media NO Samsungboot.qmg
+ where can i find bootanimation.zip ?
Got a question, can we use this in conjunction with the new KC1 rom? can I just flash using odin and allow boot animations again?
I just made a theme and don't know where to put the boot animation files at, sorry I'm a newb at this and am not used to my xplay yet.

Have you renamed the new anim 'bootanimation' and removed the old one?
Regards Dousan...
You may put it in either data/local or system/media.
However, the boot animation must be called bootanimation.zip, AND IT IS CASE SENSITIVE!

i had to put it into the system/media folder and i got mine to work but what folder do you put the boot up sound file into?

It wont work in /data/local unless you have created a symbolic link in /system/media

Boot up sounds dont work, they have to be activated some way, maybe in one of the .xml files
Hey people,
I had the transformers bootanimation installed in my unrooted transformer using the adb push to data/local. I wish to remove the same and revert back to the default.
I tried deleting the bootanimation in the data/local, but even now, the transformers bootanimation still comes up.
On reading the various related posts in the forum, I was led to believe that just the deletion of the bootanimation in the data/local folder should cause a reversal to the default boot animation.
Also, upon checking if the bootanimation.zip in the system folder, I saw that it contained the default bootanimation only.
Could anyone direct me towards how do I go about correctly reverting the bootanimation to the default?
Thanks.
Yes deleting the bootanimation.zip from data/local should revert to the bootanimation.zip in system/media. Maybe you have the same bootanimation in system/media?

Sorry, but the bootanimation in system/media is the original ASUS one... I even copied and pasted that one to data/local, but no luck..
what method did you use to delete the file from data/local?
obviously since you're not rooted you must beusing adb correct?
what's the command you're using?

I actually used the inbuilt file manager and deleted using that..
Ohh. So do I have to remove the file using adb too? If thats the case, could you tell me the command please?
Thanks
I didn't realized you could access rootfolder without root.
Anyway try
Code:
adb shell rm -r /data/local/bootanimation.zip

Thanks,.. that worked...
Actually, you are right.. Before, when I did not get where data/local was present, i had created a folder with the same name in the storage. I had put the .zip file in that. After that, I did the adb push method to actually get the boot animation to work. And i forgot abt that.
