Been trying to make my own and I keep getting a black screen only. I'm not sure if it's the png files I'm winding up with, or my desc.txt but it's not really working for me. I know that my kernel supports bootanimation.zip, I've tested this with the angry android one, so it's not that there's no support.
HELP! Thanks in advance.
Can u tell me which kernel are u using mine doesnt work with boot animation

I'm using Bali 2.1 UV. It's had bootanimation support since its first release for the SGS though. I doubt you'd get that working with any stock kernel
Search this very forum for a thread started by bl4ckphenix about boot animations.
It's one of the older threads, back in the kb5 days, when all we had was krylon's kernel for it.

I attached my current bootanimation.zip if anyone wants to take a look at it and tell me what I've done wrong. Thanks.
Found this while searching around google. It's a leaked RUU for the HTC Pico "explorer" which is a light version of Sense 3.5 on android 2.3.5 or most commonly known as "sense zero". I thought I would post it up so that you'll can start porting over to the hero.
The Pico specs are rather similar to our phone so it shouldn't be to difficult for someone to port it over, it's also mdpi so no resizing will be necessary.
If you are already considering taking on this project then more than likely you already know how to setup a flashable rom from a ruu but in case you need some refreshing the following will help:
Instructions:
- dsixda kitchen will need to be installed prior to starting.
1. Run RUU and leave open
2. Type %TEMP% in your computers start menu search bar.
3. Search through the folders in there with the long names with numbers and letters, you'll find a zip file named "rom.zip" in there.
4. Place the rom.zip in the original_update folder located in the "kitchen" directory
5. From there follow the steps on the kitchen menu to setup the rom.
6. Then proceed to porting to the hero. :]
- Download Pico RUU
Credits to capychimp for posting the leak up.
I'll check it out

Also, just a heads up, this thing may be running a new kernel, so it might not boot on first port with any of the kernels currently available to us. Someone good with kernels should be able to help out if this is the case?
Good looking out Flash. I'm actually going to try this ( which is laughable) .this phone just goes to show that the HTC hero is still perfectly capable of keeping up with android even with sense UI. Thanks to the devs and good luck to all.

I'm actually in the process of getting one off of my employer, they lend out old refurbished phones they have in storage in case our personal phones need replacing or what not. I already submitted a report claiming my phone is having some problems, so hopefully by Tuesday I should have a hero again for a bit.
Most people go for some of the newer phones they have in stock but I asked for a hero specifically lol. They're really cool about trying to get you the phone you ask for and since no one asks for heros anymore I'm pretty sure they'll loan me one. =]
Thanks for the offer though griffin, if for some reason I don't get the phone I'll let you know to see if we can work something out.

Have you checked the log of the flash process? Maybe there's something going wrong with the installation.
Do the following:
1. Flash rom
2. Right after the rom flashes start up an adb shell
3. followed by: cat /tmp/recovery.log > /sdcard/recovery.log
This will copy the recovery log to your sdcard. Check it to see if there's anything wrong with the installation. If everything looks correct then more than likely it's the kernel. I unfortunately have no experience with kernels, maybe jaybob will see this and help out?
I knew it'd be soon.....

Try the attached framework-res.apk file. Place it in the /system/framework folder using rootexplorer. It worked for me, but no guarantees. Don't get mad at me if this bricks your phone.

In the gnex forum, they have an awesome script that randomizes boot animations. I think this is very cool and I was wondering if this already exists for our sensation, if not, maybe someone who knows codes can make a flashable script? It seems simple but our roms does not seem to have a init.d support... I have no idea what that is.
So, if this was a repeat of some thread, mod, kindly link it to the correct one. If not, maybe we can use this as some sort of petition? So feel free sign or say +1 or click thanks if this is helpful in some way.
Thank you.

No one wants to make this script work for our sensation? I am surprised this doesn't exist yet at all. Unless I just missed it completely. I already tried asking...very nicely and without spamming...how to get it to work as the original gnex script creator said it can be used on ANY phone in ANY rom as long as the kernel has init.d support. But still no kernel Dev has answered this question. Oh well.

That's right. The script assigns a number to each bootanimation zip file and then every boot, you see a different animation. It seems really simple but I have no idea how to get it to work as I don't know much about android codes etc. I'm really surprised no one has picked up on this. I think it is so awesome!

Of course. I already tried. That's why I know it does not work. I'm currently on a rom with sebfms kernel. Either it is rom related or kernel but it definitely has something to do with init.d. folder in the system/etc folder. My current bootanimation is stored in system/media and the script is looking for the files in data/ local. The creator of script said it bypasses the system /media and uses data/local where various bootanimation zips are stored. I don't know. The script is not being called upon boot. I give up. Those who knows how to make it work are not exactly paying attention.

Just taken a look at the script and it is good to go, all you need is your custom bootanimation.zip files in /data/local/bootanimations/
If the script is not being loaded on boot it is because your ramdsk (the other half of boot.zip, 1st half is kernel so kernel + ramdisk = boot.img) doesnt have inbuilt init.d script support

I'm sorry but if people can't read I will start to lose my temper.
It is stated in both the OP of the original thread and in my last post that;
1. You need a ROM that supports init.d script
2. Bootanimations should be renamed to whatever then placed in /data/local/bootanimations/
Seriously how hard is it to read 1 post above yours

You're a big boy now. Use your words to express the kind of help you seek, otherwise we can only guess as to the difficulty you are having.
That first part was unnesscary. Anyways it just seems a little complicated and I don't know how the whole process works. Just two things I guess, is the theme I produce in the kitchen a rom or is it just a framework I apply and it doesn't replace the rom I'm using. And do I need to make copies of my framework and that other thing and upload it to the kitchen to make my theme?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
Your going to need two files...copy the ones you have on your phone.. system.ui.apk/framework-res.Apk...... then whem your building the theme you like you will add those last.. it will ask you to upload those.. do it...wait till the kitchen makes the theme and place it on the sd card.. flash it.....that's it.. it just adds whatever u made to your current set up your on.. either stock or a rom your on.. or theme.. it will substitute the parts you made and use those instead ...goodluck
It can also be called "SystemUI.apk" right?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
OK I did the kitchen and it worked. I have a different status bar and lock screen. Although the boot animation didn't work, probabily because of my rom.
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
Are you using a ROM with TouchWiz? If so, you will need three files. Connect your phone to your comp and go into /system
From there, go to /apps and copy SystemUI.apk to the desktop. Then go back a folder and go to /framework From there, copy framework-res.apk, and if you have touchwiz, copy twframework.apk to the desktop. Upload these files to UOT when you get to that step.
Once you get the new files from UOT, save it to the desktop and open it. Delete the three previous files you copied to the desktop, then search the one you got from UOT, for the same 3 files.
Now, pay attention, and get Root Explorer or Super Manager.
Open the app of your choice that will let your explore your file system. Find the 3 same files we've been dealing with in their respective locations on your phone, using the file explorer. (after you've transfered the ones from UOT to THE ROOT of your sd card) Copy the 3 UOT files over the ones already in your phone, which you will find in their previosly disclosed locations.
Once copied, IMMEDIATELY reboot to recovery and fix permissions.
Substitute "3 files" for "2 files" if not using Touchwiz.
Hope this helped!
---------- Post added at 02:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:55 AM ----------
Also, you can just straight copy the UOT files to their respective locations in the .zip of the custom ROM you are using, and flash the ROM.
Yea I have the twframework apk in my system, does that mean its touch wiz?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
yes. and follow my instructions above, or you will start to have errors. Definatel force closes.
The fact that the status bar wasn't changing could have been due to the fact that I wasn't adding my touch wiz framework?

This message "WAS" for mendozinas but last post i found from him was in 2011. i do thank for having a kitchen like this to customize pretty much anything for my phone (p500) Optimus one. I was informed that the kitchen will not support ics based so i flashed over Slimgen 1.6.0 (android 2.3.7) i just made some themes for the rom, havent tried them yet. I did upload the Framework.res and SystemUI.apk of the rom so hopefully it will work this time. I was wondering If anyone can add my rom (well the rom im using) on the kitchen list. SlimGen 1.6.0 here is the link to download the rom itself. im sure you already know.
http://code.google.com/p/slimgen-pro...downloads/list
Regarding to Mendozinas only. (Please reply back if you recieved my message. thanks agian. i do appreciate it. I sent you a PM figuring it will get to you quicker but i realized you must have many Pm's about certain questions. So maybe this will do the trick.) Regarding to Mendozinas only.
I tried to trouble shoot myself, still in early dev mode for me (learning the ropes) but i made a copy of the rom i have and plugged in what was from the UOT file that was giving to me from the kitchen. I made a flashable zip on my desktop and place it on the root of my sdcard. Booted into recovery...flashed it but still i get the same message. Am i using a correct rom for this or what?
Im attaching the UOT file i made so if u may need to look at it its there, any info you want from me just ask, im very greatful for the help, would really like to make different themes on my phone for start then move to rom modding .
I would really like a step by step if possible so i may get this theme up and flashed on my phone so i may make different ones for future needs.
Thanks again and hopefully i will be hearing from you.
(I posted this up couples days ago. but nobody is dealing in that thread i guess, So hopefully one of you are more familiar using the kitchen then i am.) 07-30-12 date.
I hope i gave the right information to lead me into the right direction soi may start understanding how to work around such problems like this. Thanks
Welp, all's well that's ends well
