HTC Uni Bootsplash image changer with some images attached - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development

Do not attempt this if you are not content with 'messing' with your device!
I have attached a zip file containing all the files required, including a bmp<>rsb converter.
Extract all files to C:\Bootsplash
Firstly the source image
The image needs to be 480x640 even though most Execs are opened in landscape format. The orientation needs to be left hand side of image at top, right hand side of image to bottom. (In essence, the landscape image is rotated 90 degrees clockwise).
This image needs to be saved as a 24bit bitmap.
Converting the source image to rsb
Use rsbbmp.exe in the zip (windows program) and check the readme for instructions but its really simple - if you add a bmp file it converts to rsb with same file name and vice versa.
You should now have your new splash picture .rsb and this should be in the Bootsplash directory for the change to work.
Exec Preparation
In the zip file is a cab file - EnableRapi.cab - this needs to be transfered to the Exec and run locally on the Exec. Once installed - that's it - you shouldn't need to worry about it again.
Flashing the Boot Splash Image
The zip file contains the following files that all need to be in the C:\Bootsplash directory...
bdsplash.rsb - this is Buzz's splash screen and will be installed if yours can't be found!
itsutils.dll
pdocread.exe
pdocwrite.exe
preboot.exe
rsb_header.bin
UNI_splash.bat - this is the batch file to run BUT NOT YET!
Firstly, in a text editor, edit the UNI_splash.bat file and insert the name of your rsb picture on line 6 or so - where I have put . Save the bat file.
Connect your Exec to the PC via ActiveSync. Wait for it to complete synchronisation
Run UNI_splash.bat and follow the instructions in the command box displayed.
If you do not extract all files to c:\bootsplash you will need to amend the UNI_splash.bat file accordingly
And that's it :wink:
The Exec does a soft reset as part of the process - and you should see your new screen in all its glory!

Nice to see there is some people working for our beloved Uni!

ROM direct copy to PC?

Hi,
an idea - when you flash your ROM for example with offical updaters, you don't use any SD card - they write the ROM directly to device's memory, right? If so..Is there any way to do it in oposite way? Directly copy the ROM to PC HDD without using a SD card? It should be possible, reading is almost always easier than writing .
Ok, help yourself I found bootloader command rbmc:
Usage:
rbmc [FileName [StartAddr [Len]]]
Read back the memory content from the specified address to the host
and save the data to specified file name.
FileName : Full file path for save data of memory(default=c:\temp\Mem.nb).
StartAddr : Start address of memory(default(hex)=A0000000).
Len : How many bytes will be read. And if not given value, it will be
Total ROM size on board - ((StartAddress & 0x0FFFFFFF) - (ROM base address(0) & 0x0FFFFFFF)).
But this command is locked - I need password I guess, when I try to use it it writes on terminal:
USB>rbmc c:\ROM.bin 80000000 04000000
Command is Locked!
USB>
Any ideas?
Yes, i've got it. Finnaly you can backup/restore your ROM without SD card ^^. Here's it.
TO BACKUP:
-Download itsutils (http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html).
-Startup your MDA to Windows.
-On your computer run: 'pmemdump 0x80000000 0x04000000 rom.nb'. This will save your ROM to your HDD to file rom.nb.
TO RESTORE:
-You'll have to divide your rom.nb to pieces to mc_.nbf, nk.nbf and radio.nbf. Find exact procedure elsewhere.
-Download official update tool.
-Extract it to some place eg. c:\temp\.
-Push there your *.nbf files.
-Download 'fixed' MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe which won't ask about country IDs, no language problems etc. But most important is the fact it CAN BE RUN IN BOOTLOADER. (ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Tools/MaUpgradeUt_noID.zip)
-Put it into your c:\temp.
-Run it & enjoy
Well most critical section in my procedure is dividing rom.nb to those 3 files, because I didn't try it . It should work.

[GUIDE] How To Make Bootanimation

Hello Everyone
Here Is The Tutorial On How to Create Ur Own Boot Animation for U r Mobile... (Specifically Using Bootanimation Factory By @despotovski01)
Requirements :
1) Windows OS
2) BootAnimation Factory ( Press Thanks Button For His Awesome Work Without Which I Would Have Never Learned It )
3) Image Resizer (To change the resolution of the images)
4) Image Editing Software ( Your wish)
(A)Photoshop (B) GIMP
5) 7Zip
6) Notepad++
What Is BootAnimation??
The Android boot animation is contained within a an uncompressed zip file called bootanimation.zip that can be found in the media folder of the system partition i.e. /system/media on the internal memory of the device. This single file contains all the information required to play the boot animation, and is loaded automatically when the device boots.
What a Bootanimation.zip Contains??
. If you extract the contents of the bootanimation.zip file to your computer, you will see:
1) A desc.txt file
2) A part0 folder (Contains PNG images named in incremental numbers)
3) More part1, part2 etc. folders (May or may not be present)
As you can see, bootanimation.zip merely contains one text file and one or more folders with PNG images. The animation is played simply by displaying the images in a sequence, and the text file defines how they are to be played. In essence, first the PNG files in the part0 folder are displayed one after the other and afterwards, those in the part1 file – if it exists – are displayed, again one after the other, and so on. All of this is defined in the desc.txt file.hence desc.txt file is vital file for creating a bootanimation.
Now Will See What Each Files And Folder Does:laugh:
Imp : This Guide Is Applicable To All Devices..The Change is The RESOLUTION of your Device Change The Resolution Suitable To Your Device Using Image Resizer.Resolution Details Can Be Found On Device Specification.
The folders
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
These contain PNG images named in numbers, starting from something like 0000.jpg or 00001.jpg and proceeding with increments of 1. There has to be at least one folder, and there is no known upper limit to the number of folders.
The desc.txt file
This file defines how the images in the folder(s) are displayed during the boot animation, in the following format:
Width Height Frame-rate
p Loop Pause Folder1
p Loop Pause Folder2
An example of a desc.txt file is:
720 1280 30
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
As you can see, in the first line, 720 and 1280 define the width and height of the boot animation in pixels for this example. This must be the same as the screen resolution of your device for the boot animation to properly play in full screen. 30 is the frame rate in fps (frames per second) i.e. number of images to display per second.
The second and third lines have a same format, start with p, which stands for a part of the animation and end in part0 or part1, which denotes the folder in which the images for that part are present.
The number after ‘p’ defines how many times this part will loop (repeat playback) before switching to the next part (if present). Specifying 0 would make the part loop indefinitely till the phone has fully booted.
The next number is for the pause, and is expressed in the number of frames, which can be translated into time by dividing it by the frame rate. A pause of 15 for example, would mean pausing for the time it takes 15 frames to play and since the frame rate is 30 frames per second, 15 frames would take half a second.
Translating all of this in case of the above example, the boot animation will play at a resolution of 720 by 1280 pixels, at a frame rate of 30 fps, starting with the contents of part0 folder and after playing them in one loop, switching to contents of part1 folder and playing them continuously till the device fully boots. Best method to find which FPS suits your mobile is open the current Running Bootanimation from your device open the desc.txt and see and enter the same value.
Steps To Create Ur Own Bootanimations
1) Download All The Necessary Tools U need To For This.
2) Install The Necessary Softwares.
3) Go through the entire Inside the bootanimation.zip File Which I will attach at the end of this guide.
4) Plan how your boot animation will run. This includes how many distinct parts it will have, how long will each part play and what will be the sequence of the parts.
5) Make a new folder at any convenient location on your computer, and name it bootanimation.
6) In this folder, create a folder for each part of your boot animation, named part0, part1 and so on.
7) In the image editor of your choice (Adobe Photoshop,GIMP), make all the image files for each part of your boot animation with the proper dimensions equal to your phone’s screen resolution, and save them in the respective folder for each part, in PNG format. Up to 32 bit PNGs are supported.
Note: In case you are converting an existing boot animation to fit your phone’s screen, simply extract the images from it and resize each of them to your device’s screen resolution.
8) Make sure the images are named in numerical format and in proper sequence, i.e. the images in the first part should start with let’s say 00000.jpg and go on till 00075.jpg, and the images in the second part should then start off with 00076.jpg and go on till – for instance – 00123.jpg.
9) Now open the Boot Animation Factory Tool.
10) Click on “Create a New Boot Animation” Button.
11) There will be 2 options Asking for Source (1)From folder and (2) From GIF. Since In This Guide I have used Folder Method, Select Folder and click OK
12) Click On Choose folder and Select The bootanimation folder were u had stored all the necessary folders and images.
13) At the Right Hand Side You Can see the tab were the Resolution of The pics will be displayed..You can edit it and change the resolution and FPS too. Let the setting be “Don’t Repeat”
14) click on add loop button.
15) Select The Folder Ex: part0 . For this folder Set THE LOOP to 1 and TIME DELAY to 0 ( You Can Put your Custom delay if u wish) and Click ADD button.
16) Repeat the Step 15 but here Select the next part In Folder Ex : part1
17) If U have more part folders select the respective part and repeat the Step 15.
18) For last folder ( Ex : If part1 is last folder ) the SET THE LOOP to 0 . So that it Repeats
19) You can PREVIEW your bootanimation before saving by clicking on PREVIEW Button.
20) Click Save Boot Animation Button and name it has “bootanimation”
You Have Done A Bootanimation Successfully..:laugh::laugh:
How To Put It In Your Device?
File browser method (Rooted devices only):
1) Connect your phone to your computer via USB and mount the storage card for file transfer.
2) Copy the bootanimation.zip file that you want to install, to your SD card.
3) Unmount USB storage and launch the file browser of your choice on your phone.
4) Browse to /system/media, copy the existing bootanimation.zip file from there and paste it somewhere safe on your SD card.
5) Browse to the location on the SD card where you copied the new bootanimation.zip and copy it.
6) Browse to /system/media and paste the bootanimation.zip file there.
7) If you are using Root Explorer App, you will have to Touch ‘Mount R/W’. This will make your system partition writeable.
8) Check if the permissions are rw-r—r—. If not, change them to that.
9) Reboot And Enjoy Your New Bootanimation Done by You:laugh:

POST-3​THIS GUIDE (POST-3) IS ONLY APPLICABLE TO SAMSUNG DEVICES NOT ANY OTHER ONLY SAMSUNG MOBILES.
CONVERTING BOOTANIMATION.ZIP TO .QMG FILE FOR STOCK ROM'S:laugh:​HELLO EVERYONE:highfive:
Requirements :
1) Windows OS
2) Image Resizer (To change the resolution of the images)
3) Image Editing Software ( Your wish)
4) 7Zip
5) Samsung Theme Designer
THIS GUIDE IS THE PART OF [GUIDE] How To Make Custom Bootanimation
What is .QMG files?
These files are done by using Samsung Theme Creater Officially. Its there own way of making animation which ends with making files having .qmg extension. Shocking is Samsung Theme Designer cannot open QMG files, it can only create them
What Does it Contain?:laugh:
It has 2 files
1) Bootsamsung.qmg
2) Bootsamsungloop.qmg
These 2 files are always together has in general they are together bootanimation.zip.
What Does Each File Do?
1) Bootsamsung.qmg
It contains the files needed for boot. These files are not repeatable.
Ex : From bootanimation.zip if there are 2 folders part0 and part1 then part0 is the folder used to make bootsamsung.qmg
2) Bootsamsungloop.qmg
It contains the files for loop execution. These files are repeatable. Its similar to desc.txt file instruction.
Ex : From bootanimation.zip if there are 2 folders part0 and part1 then part1 is your loop and this folder is used to create Bootsamsungloop.qmg.Remember when we made bootanimation .zip we had put no of loops=0
How To Convert Bootanimation.zip To .QMG files​IMP : HERE I CONSIDER THAT THE BOOTANIMATION.ZIP CONTAINS PART0 AND PART1 FOLDER.
MAKING BOOTSAMSUNG.QMG:laugh:​1) Open Samsung Theme Designer Software.
2) Click create new theme, use type "feature(NonTouch) phone", then "select model" and use any model.
3) Select Default and Name your theme.
4) Choose "Idle Component" then "Idle Background" and change "Background Type" to "animated".
5) Enter No of Frames and hit enter that is nothing but no of pics in part0 folder.
6) Enter delay (This is bit tricky) here its in ms (milli seconds not FPS) to convert that follow this 1000 / (framerate) = (time given in ms)
for example:
1000 / 20fps = 50ms
or
1000 / 25fps = 40ms
7) Under Repeat option select FALSE for bootsamsung.qmg and TRUE for bootsamsungloop.qmg.
8) Drag your image files sequence from your folder(here its part0 folder) to the empty squares in the bottom of the theme designer.
9) Now export your theme and accept the Samsung terms & conditions and wait for your .STM file theme to be created.
10) Once its done click yes to open the saved folder there Rename the .STM file to .ZIP file and open it.
11) After opening zip file drag "IdleBgAnimObj.qmg" to anywere u wish preferably to desktop.
12) Rename the "IdleBgAnimObj.qmg" has bootsamsung.qmg
13) Now your boot file is Read but wait still loop is not done for that follow the below steps.
Creating Loop File :
1) Open Samsung Theme Designer Software.
2) Click create new theme, use type "feature(NonTouch) phone", then "select model" and use same model has above.
3) Select Default and Name your theme.
4) Choose "Idle Component" then "Idle Background" and change "Background Type" to "animated".
5) Enter No of Frames that is nothing but no of pics in part1 folder.
6) Enter delay (This is bit tricky) here its in ms (milli seconds not FPS) to convert that follow this
1000 / (framerate) = (time given in ms)
for example:
1000 / 20fps = 50ms
or
1000 / 25fps = 40ms
7) Under Repeat option select TRUE for bootsamsungloop.qmg.
8) Drag your image files sequence from your folder(here its part1 folder) to the empty squares in the bottom of the theme designer.
9) Now export your theme and accept the Samsung terms & conditions and wait for your .STM file theme to be created.
10) Once its done click yes to open the saved folder there Rename the .STM file to .ZIP file and open it.
11) After opening zip file drag "IdleBgAnimObj.qmg" to anywere you wish preferably to desktop.
12) Rename the "IdleBgAnimObj.qmg" has bootsamsungloop.qmg
13) Copy the both files and keep them together.
YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY DONE THE .QMG FOR STOCK ROM'S

[Guide] HOW To Port Bootanimtion to Your Suitable Resolution

HI GUYS
Do you used to have a conversation like this one
..A: HEY!!!!!. your phone's bootnimation is very nice, could you send it to me??
..B: Sorry, it's not suitable with your screen reslution.
..A: ohh, Do you know how to change the resolution?.
..B: you can go to xda and ask how
_IF you're looking how to change the bootainmation resolution you're in the right place.
Requirement:
1. Windows 7
2. MIR (multiple image resizer) <from attachment> .
3. Bootanimation factory <from attachment>.
4. the bootanimtion you want to resize (I'm going to work on xperia lollipop bootanimtion.
NOTE: every step has its explaining image in the attachments.
and suggest to download the photos then start because you will need them they will help you alot.
NOW lets get started:
RESIZING THE IMAGES
1. extract the bootanimation to a folder .
2. open the MIR and click on "open a folder of images" then navigate to the 'bootanimation' folder.
3. select 'part0' and the photos in the parrt0 folder will loaded like in the attached photo .
4. now go to the resizing window and set the suitable resolution (in my case will be 480*854).
5. now create another folder and rename it "bootanimation" and create in that folder the same folders in the original bootanimation folder.
6. get back to MIR and to "save option" window and save the resized photo(s) to the folder you have created.
Code:
IF you take the photos that you have resized form 'part0' folder then safe it in part0 folder in the new created folder
part0----------->part0
part1----------->part1
part2----------->part2
etc............
7.now do the same thing with "part1, part2 , part3 ............etc" .
CREATING THE BOOTANIMTION
8. now open the Bootanimation factory and select "create a bootanimtion" and select " folder" .
9. select "chose folder " and chose the new created folder.
10. now go to original bootanimtion folder and to desc.txt .
11. get back to bootanimation factory and select the first line in the top right menu. and click edit.
12. edit the (FBS) to the suitble one in the desc.txt . for example if it was "20" in desc.txt then make "20".

..n78 shadow: guys please continue your conversation out of this thread.
FAQ
..A:why don't we just change the resolution in desc.txt
..n78 shadow:it won't work you need to change the images size and if you try will have a bootloop
..B:The folders in the original bootanimtion wasn't named "part0" they were named "generic1" .
..n78 shadow:No problem you can rename it in the new created folder "part0" just remember that the phone will play first "part0" folder then "part1" folder .......etc
NOTE:
1. if you have any question post it here.

[HOW TO] Custom sticker to Camera app

I have long tried to get my custom sticker in my S8 camera. I tried a few tutorials and no one did.
Finally, I thought and tried differently. My Instructions:
NOTE: Tested on Galaxy S8 last official firmware (09/2018)
We need:
1. Rooted phone
2. Your custom sticker (image) withouth background in PNG. The image should have square dimensions, otherwise it will deform. I created 1000x1000px.
3. Some root browser
4. Computer with 7zip installed
Procedure:
1. On PC convert the created image from PNG to BMP. I used the onlide converter https://image.online-convert.com/convert-to-bmp.
2. Copy the converted image and create 2 copies (we will need a total of 3 same images).
3. In the phone, open the root browser and go to the system/priv-app/StickerStamp/ folder.
4. Copy the StickerStamp.apk file to the SD card and then move it to your PC.
5. Open the stickerStamp.apk in 7zip and go to the folder: res/drawable/.
6. Reaname the images that we prepared in step 2 into a label that we do not need (in my case itsautumn, itsautumn_01 and itsautumn_02) and move the images to the res/drawable/ folder and overwrite the original stickers. Then close 7zip.
7. Modify the StyckerStapm.apk move to your phone to the system/priv-app/StickerStamp/ and set permissions to -rw-rw----
8. Stop the camera application and open. ENJOY

Want to revert touchscreen to use mirrored dodgy tablet (Advance Tr4986/Tr4987)

This is an Advance Tr4987 tablet with reflected screen issue, i have no updates nor support from their maker. The only clue is a similar issue with ONN tablets which also use the same Mediatek SoC (MT6580) and at least i want to invert the touch to use as is.
After many days i got a backup and scatter file, at least the boot files and installed Magisk to edit system files. However, the build.prop typical edit (add ro.sf.hwrotation) resulted in bootloop and some russian threads points this tweak to items.bin file.
I renamed it as items.ini and text editors can show what's inside, edit and rename it again as items.bin. The only problem is to put it back, SP Flash Tool is not detecting my tablet using the same sequence than Miracle Box (vol - while connecting the tablet turned off). Did i miss something?
Otherwise, where are written those arguments in system files? Tablet has Android 8.1
Since no sources points to this tablet, Advance Tr4986, i uploaded the Magisk patched boot image for anyone who want to root this model.
boot_advance_tr4986.img
MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.
www.mediafire.com
There still need some steps to use it.
- Rename the file to boot.img
- Put tablet in fastboot mode (vol+ and Power by 7-10 seconds, then select fastboot from menu)
- From PC, send the command "fastboot oem unlock" (maybe it need to activate from Deveoper options in Android first).
- Then "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and once finished, "fastboot restart".
- In android, go to apps menu and give Magisk permissions to install apps and connect tablet to internet for the rest of installation of Magisk.
As always, make a backup. I suffered a lot finding someone with Miracle Box and patience only for this file.
Once rooted i found other scatter file, only intended to change items.ini and boot logo. I renamed items.bin to items.ini and indeeed, is a heavy text file.
Default rotation was 270 degrees and after adjusting to 90 and reverting x axis instead of y due to this tweak, now touch works with the mirrored screen. The earlier problem with SP Flash Tool also was associated with the original scatter file i had.
I am uploading a zip with the scatter file and modded items.ini file. Just keep in mind this scatter file is only intended to flash boot logo and items.ini, the rest is empty. At the good side, no root required.
I also upload it to mediafire since is my own discovery.
