[BOOTANIMATION] DukeOS Bootanimation (Duke Nukem Forever)

Hey guys...
Thanks to despotovski01's thread "How to make your own bootanimation" and a little magic (thanks to the pre-release demo of Duke Nukem Forever), I was able to create something awesome... the DukeOS Bootanimation
I may borrow despotovski01's instructions (sorry pal)...
Root Explorer method:
1. Rename your boot animation to bootanimation.zip
2. Put it on your SD card
3. Open Root Explorer and copy bootanimation.zip to /system/media. This will replace the existing boot animation
4. Reboot your phone
ADB method:
1. Make sure you have downloaded android sdk
2. Put android sdk in C:\
3. Set the directory of command prompt to C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools. Click here for a video tutorial.
4. Rename your boot animation to bootanimation and put it in C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
5. Open cmd
6. Type in order:
-adb remount
-adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
-adb reboot
it is available in both lo-res (takes less space and loads way faster)
and hi res versions (seems to load faster? )
lo-res: http://www.multiupload.com/860L1GJE31
hi-res: http://www.multiupload.com/D9ON73WTG4
http://www.stilbruch.at/2011/06/bootanimation-dukeos-bootanimation-duke.html
preview:
I hope my dear friends from Gearbox software aren't mad at me for that... It is just another promotion for the awesome upcoming Duke Nukem Forever (10th July 2011 International, 14th July 2011 US)!
I don't own any of the rights on the graphics!
BTW: I think it would perfectly fit honeycomb

good bootani....thanks!!

This works good. Thank you.

I get a faster reboot when I use the hi-res boot animation. I like this.

You are using stock rom, have u root your Tab? If not, you will never have the chance to use this wonderful boot animation.
If u want to root, use Chainfire CF root which support the bootimation inside the /data/local/ this saveu more space in /system.

I suppose you could try changing the boot animation.zip to bootani.qmg, but I'd either change the old bootani.qmg file name to oldbootani.qmg or backup elsewhere in case it doesn't work.
Use root explorer to copy it to the place you need (it allows you to change permissions from R/O to R/W).
Easy...

Hmmm... I'm afraid to try it and get into a boot loop. CWM isn't playing nice and for some reason doesn't want to backup my current rom.
I also dont have a working comp to odin fix it if it does screw things up.
Dang it. I really want this bootup too!
Any other ideas guys? I this is my phone and tab all in one

Play it safe and wait till you have a computer to fix just in case.
Because if you do it and it fails, you will be kicking yourself.

Just drop the zip file into the media folder. Make sure the permissions match and I'm 90% sure the rom will just use it instead. At worst you be no better off if you follow but I'm sure it will work. Absolute system tools has a feature that does it all for you and has 100s of animations.
Sent from my GT-P1000

Just tried the absolute app. It's very cool but doesn't even see where the bootani is either.
Anyone know what the qmg file format is?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

The high res seems to work on and off on my CM7 nightlies Evo4G. But the low res works without a problem. Both seemed to load about the same speed without any hesitations (when the high res would load). Nice work though, thanks for the work! I even like the fact it loads in landscape instead of portrait!

Same thing here, using stock Gingerbread.
place bootanimation.zip in /data/local/
set permissions and you're good...

Wifi tweak on the X10. (Moved to development)

Hey guys I got a tweak from wolfs Rom working on my x10 that increases the signal greatly. Watch the how to video here.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jy0r-o1Bh9Q&feature=youtube_gdata_player
I now have over a 10000 kbps connection just like his in the video. Pretty cool.
First step unzip the file in your sd card then open the file via root explorer
Next go into system/etc/init.d and copy the modules script using root explorer.
Next go to your system on the actual phone (not the sd card) then go.to etc then find the folder called init.d. (if you dont have it flash this via recovery) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236446
Then place modules in the init folder.
Next go back to your sd card where the 4.0.4 thing is and go into system*etc and copy the entire. Install sh recovery folder then go back to the actual phone and go to.system/etc and just paste it there and select yes if it asks u to overwrite something.
Finally find the install recovery thing
you just copied and click it once and press execute.
Then your done.
How to test if it worked. Before u do the tweak download speed test from the market and test your current wifi speed. After tweak test it again. Note it may require a reboot.
Get it here. http://www.datafilehost.com/get.php?file=a18d42a6

Got it working on my x10. Thanks . Here are screenshots to prove it works. I was in the same spot before the tweak and with the tweak.

you do realize that overwriting install-recovery.sh will overwrite any other init.d scripts the person might have and also any tweaks put in there by the dev (if you are using it on any other rom than wolfbreaks)?
You shouldn't be advising people to do stuff like this without at least warning them about what they're doing.

Noticed similar threads going up in other device forums and I have the same problem myself. I bought the game for my g2x, I'm running Hawks MIUI port, the extra file download gets to 25% and it sends me back to my homescreen, doesn't continue with the download. Anyone find a fix?

Same issue. I am running CM7 nightly 179... I hope there is a work around...
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

When i try and download it on weapon 3.0 it says my device is not compatible

Thats the weird thing on my g2x i get the same error, but i installed it on my gs2 (using chainfire/nvidia plugin) and it stalled at 25%for 5seconds and then it just continued with the installation...odd.

Try unchecking Compatibility Mode is Spare Parts.

I downloaded the game last night, and I had the same issue. What worked for me was moving the game to the sd card and then restarting the phone; it finally worked after re-downloading the 250mb add-on. Pretty cool game, get ready for your thumb to start hurting though

works fine for me im on weapon 2.8
i downloaded the data and put it on my sd card though, i didnt download it through the apk.
fun game.

compatibility mode was no good, moved to SD and restarted, no good... Thanks for trying, we'll get it.

im downloading the sd data from an external site, then gonna move it to /android/data and see if it will check and load the game from there.
edit:
it worked!

(App) Market 3.1.6 download

I have made an install zip for the Android Market 3.1.6 which seems to be working well. No problems with downloads or payment options. Please feel free to download and leave comments. This is my first foray in the Android arena so please no flames, YMMV. The usual disclaimers, I take no responsibility if this bricks your device, etc... Hope it helps some and if it does please give thanks/credit.

Dude this version has been out for a long time now and its not even the newest version of it
Please search first and stop spamming!

No spam intended, I know this is not the newest version of the ap but 3.2 is not working for many. I just posted to help anyone who upgraded and needed to roll back to a working version. For me (and many others) 3.2 does not allow you to purchase aps, free works fine but purchase is not working. Again no spam intended and this is a working zip and ap.

Any way to get the apk .to push tho root explorer cant flash my volume rockers quit working thanks in advance
And i cant buy app version 3.1.5

Yes just unzip the file and copy the Vendor.apk using root explorer (or whatever ap you are using) to the system\app folder, reboot and you're good to go.

Thanks will do ..

You missed the intent of the post. Granted the OP did not do a great job explaining it, but this is not spam...
He made this zip version so people can easily revert to this version of market if you are using my series of ROMS. Mine have 3.2.0 and that is a screwed up version. If you flash this zip it will resolve that by killing the old version and replacing it with this version. He made it into a zip to simplify the process.
And remember, if you dont like the post, simply dont respond. No need to come in and start flaming and acting like a tough guy. Just ignore what you dont like and move on.

i was going to ask what's wrong with your market, but like you said you don't have access at the moment.
Ok i just downloaded it from the market for you enjoy, let me know if it works:

Much appreciated. I am not trying to waste anyones time. I don't have another Android phone here to grab it off a working market with.
Just to explain I have the ICS beta 4.1 loaded up but I need to run a script using this tool to fix the marketplace.

Ooh cool.. looking forward to that fix. Good luck.
Try this as well
