Bionic ROM boot animation sounds? - T-Mobile LG G2x

I have Bionix ROM and I'm trying to add sounds to my bionic boot animation. But there isn't a poweron folder and I tried putting it in the history folder but it still doesn't work. Is there any way to add sounds to the animation?
EDIT: Changed to Bionix ROM and it still hasn't worked. Also tried putting sound file in Notification file and no luck D:

I think it has to do with the kernel, faux kernels don't have boot sound. Dunno about morfic or stock kernels either since I only rock faux ds kernels when released.

What kernels do have boot sound?

testing a method...will post back results ...good or bad

I was able to get sound...tried lots n lots. There is a TON posted here on the subject...found my solution in the HTC forums. Don't have the link handy but search CM7 boot sound. There is a file called bootsnd.sh that will append the necessary files and create the bootsound app needed. To finally get this to work I reflashed a new nightly of CM7. This also removed Trinity kernel...so maybe that was mucking things up. Ill reflash Trinity and see.
But to recap ...yes boot sound on LG g2x with cm7 is a go.

Taken from somewhere here in xda. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048231)
I cleared cache and dalvic using CWM.
I flashed a fresh CM7 nightly using CWM.
I Followed terminal emulator instructions...I'm sure adb from command line will work also. I used root explorer to copy android_audio.mp3 (don't forget to set system folder as R/W with root explorer.
1) search for and Download the bootsnd.sh file. Save it to the root directory of your SD Card on your Device.
2. Take whatever sound you want and rename it to: android_audio.mp3 (needs to be mp3 format) and then place in your adb directory.
3. On your phone, open terminal emulator, and type in the following:
su [enter]
cd /sdcard [enter]
ls (to list all files, you should see bootsnd.sh)
sh bootsnd.sh [enter]
You won't see a confirmation, or message, it just runs, and returns you to a # sign.
From your computer, adb push the android_audio.mp3 to the /system/media folder, reboot, and you'll have a sound.
If you don't like or know how to use adb, using root explorer and placing the android_audio.mp3 in the system/media folder works just as well (Mount the /system as R/W First). Reboot, and enjoy your boot sound.
*NOTE*
If you flash / change roms, you'll have to re-run the process to enable the boot sound again. If you get tired of it / don't want it, you can use root explorer and delete the file.
Alternate method:
For those that don't like using the terminal emulator, you can do it via adb:
navigate to your adb folder via commanda prompt, then issue the following commands:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /sdcard
ls [will list files, you should see bootsnd.sh]
sh bootsnd.sh
Like in the emulator, you will be returned with a # sign. Then place the audio file in the folder I specified. Just decided like posting an alt method

What do you mean by setting the system folder as R/W? It means read/write right? (lol write right)
EDIT: Plus how do I set it to R/W ( Sry im a little of a noob when it comes to things like this, im better at game developing )

Using a utility like Root Explorer (A paid app but worth the 4$, there may be a free alternative), makes this a trivial task...simply click the "Make R/W" will make the system directory ...you guessed it "Read/Writable". Normally its "Read Only" (R/O).
Im not 100% sure about this (im sure ill be corrected) as Root Explorer has made me lazy, but using ADB and issuing the command ADB Remount, will make the file system R/W (per the ADB Wiki adb remount - remounts the /system partition on the device read-write)
So using ADB to push your files, make all your edits on your local machine, then put them in your ADB directory, and issue commands as follows:
ADB remount
ADB push build.prop /system
ADB push init.local.rc /system/etc
ADB push bootsound /system/bin
ADB push android_audio.mp3 /data/local

Grr after I tried it it still doesn't work!!!
EDIT:Im reflashing ROM in case.
EDIT 2 : Yup didn't work.

[Q] Droid 2 Global BootStrap Manual Install?

How would I go about pushing clockworkmod custom recovery via ADB/Terminal instead of using the D2Bootstrap.apk?
You don't and even if it did it wouldn't work because the D2, D2G, DX and Dpro have locked bootloaders stick with koush it has never done me wrong and I've been romming my D2 since we got root and roms back in september 2010.

I'm just asking how the app can do something that a terminal can't? I don't know how to comprehend that, I would think that there would be a way.
I wonder if the apk will have any useful information. Thank you for the reply

I'm sure there is a way but why figure it out when it's already been done?
The app pushes files (not sure what) to locations (not sure where) that hijack the booting process on startup before getting to moto's software. If it sees a specific file (I think logwrapper.bin but I'm not sure) is boots into clockworkmod. If it doesn't it just boots like normal.

I would like to figure out how so "I" won't need an app, and to hopefully bring more info to our Community of D2G owners. Just my own opinion.
You need to get the hijack file from Koush's App. Download droid2bootsrapper either from his site or the market. View it with your favorite zip viewer, say 7zip or Winrar. Look in the assets folder for the hijack file.
Adb push hijack to /system/bin
Chmod 755 hijack
Rename logwrapper to logwrapper.bin (in the /system/bin folder)
Symlink hijack to a new file called logwrapper ("cd /system/bin", "ln -s hijack logwrapper")
Don't try it if you don't know how to SBF.

I tried what you said and but I believe that there is another step?
# adb push hijack /system/bin
# mv /system/bin/logwrapper /system/bin/logwrapper.bin
# cd /system/bin
# ln -s hijack logwrapper
#
Do I need to flash the recovery still, I'm stuck.
(Edit)
I searched further into the apk, and found the recovery image along with *.sh scripts. All help is appreciated.
No, you cant "flash" recovery as the D2G has a locked bootloader.
I'm not positive, but when the App is installed there are additional files in /data (like an update.zip)
I dont know if the hijack loads that update.zip or not...I'm inclined to think it doesn't since most of the custom roms just include the hijack and the symlink and nothing else...
the .sh file is the script that runs when you press "reboot recovery" in the app.
There is another .sh script that runs adbd is su mode when your phone first boots.
To get into recovery type the following in terminal
$su
#touch /data/.recovery_mode
#reboot
When the phone boots, init.rc calls logwrapper, which symlinks to hijack, which checks for the file /data/.recovery_mode. If it finds that file, it unmount system and loads bootstrap/Clockwork Recovery. If it doesn't find it /data/.recovery_mode it creates it, just in case you're phone doesn't boot. When your phone successfully boots, Droid2Bootstraper.apk starts and deletes /data/.recovery_mode so that next time you boot you wont automatically go into Boostrap recovery.
If you dont have the Boostrapper app, then you will probably boot into recovery every time you restart your phone.

[MOD] Six(6) Lockscreens & Power Menu + Clock Options for KC1 [EDT][4.22.2011]

Ok everyone. Here is the lockscreen mod, power menu AND additional clock options for KC1. This will NOT work on Krylon's stock build but ONLY my deodexed one. Since there is no cwm yet you will need to push the files manually with adb or use root explorer to drop them in. Root Explorer is the easiest method. Just be sure to set permissions on all the files to rw-r--r-- after you copy them in.
Lockscreens are Rotary (default), Puzzle, Android, Glass, Epic and Star Wars (Settings > Display > Unlock Screen)(Please be aware - Lockscreen wallpapers are not supported on any of these)
Power Menu (no header) - Reboot, Recovery, Download mode
Clock Options - Hide Clock, Hide am/pm (Settings > Date and Time)
Added "Stay Awake" option (Settings > Applications > Development)
Pretty sure I killed the "battery full" pop-up as well
DOWNLOAD <<<<< KC1 Lockscreens / Power Menu / Clock Options
If using adb here is what to do...
Place the files in the zip in your adb tools folder. Navigate to your tools folder in your cmd prompt and perform these commands
First, mount your system as r/w
Code:
adb shell
su (will need to accept root access on phone)
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
Your system is now mounted as read/write. Now remove the original files from your phone.
Code:
rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
rm /system/framework/framework.jar
rm /system/framework/android.policy.jar
rm /system/framework/services.jar
rm /system/app/Settings.apk
exit
exit
Now push the new files into place.
framework files to framework folder
Code:
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
adb push framework.jar /system/framework
adb push android.policy.jar /system/framework
adb push services.jar /system/framework
Settings to app folder
Code:
adb push Settings.apk /system/app
Now the files are all in place, but you need to set the correct permission on them.
Code:
adb shell
su
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework.jar
chmod 644 /system/framework/android.policy.jar
chmod 644 /system/framework/services.jar
chmod 644 /system/app/Settings.apk
DONE. Now reboot your phone. It will take about 5 minutes to reboot.
Again, you can use Root Explorer to move these files into place manually. Just be sure to set the permissions of all of them to rw-r--r-- after you do.

I would honestly learn the basics before you try any of this.
i allready flashed stock deodexed kc1 rom onto my phone in hopes of putting on the lockscreens but i just wanted to know if the root explorer method was easier like he stated up there
I really want these....but its quite painful setting up all my sync'ed accounts again after flashing. I went from Deodexed to Krylon's Odexed Stock, to go back to Deodexed would be a painful process again to get all my accounts set back up and app's loaded + moved to SD. Also fixing the camera/mms/phone issue with the Deodexed ROM on top of that.
Anybody else have any thoughts? Just do it? Haha

I used ES File Explorer, go into settings, and check the two boxes in Root setting.
Then go to the directory where the zip is saved, extract and copy paste to the right directories. Once that was done I rebooted. It took 5 min or so to boot but It came up. Once done go into settings and change lockscreen.
Worked like a charm for me. Thanks!!!

Oh boy, so I was able to do this via ADB.
But thought I would also try and do it with Root Explorer. I am bored at my job today.
I copied the files to the sdcard. Then opened Root explorer, located the files, using multi- select I selected all but the settings file that goes into the system/app.
I then hit copy/ then tried to paste the four files to system/framework
I get an error that says there isn't enough space. Then I get all sorts of force closes, and have to re-odin the deodexed KC1.
What the hell am I doing wrong? I am sure I am just having a brain fart but its becoming irritating.

I had the same problem with another framework, and cringed when I tried this method. BUT, I used ES File explorer for this mod and everything worked like a charm. I didnt have to set permissions or anything.

The only time Root Explorer crashes on me, it's because I don't have root permission. Assuming you are rooted, can try three things:
1) Go into the Superuser App and find root explorer if its there and choose to forget it.
2) If that doesn't work reboot.
3) If THAT doesn't work try a different file explorer.
I have root and root explorer display that it got root permission a second before.it.crashed.
I've used an.other program and i can.confirm there is.the bootanimation.zip in the folder....even tried to change it for an.other on (ice cream sandwish boot).
I rebooted about 5 time and still no boot animation....

In Android Terminal Emulator, assuming you've already remounted /system read/write, try:
Code:
chmod 644 /system/media/bootanimation.zip
Other possibilities:
Some versions of the bootanimation binary only support PNG bootanimations, not JPEGs like the ICS bootanimation.
Some insist on it being /system/media/sanim.zip

Maybe my phone is fast booting by itself because I did nothing to help it boot as fast as this. since I Flashed the ROM the boot is blazing fast.
I did Mounted as RW with an app called Remount. It do the Root remount and it seems to work (for mounting) BUT! Still no boot anim.
I began to think that it's not that bad as I don't really reboot 5 time a day to enjoy a psychedelic screen lolll.
but still....it's more the Why than the How in this case
Teranox said:

^^ this means that Entropy's instructions are assuming that you remounted system as read/write so that you can edit replace the bootanimation.zip. In Root Explorer once you navigate to system/media then in the top left it will say "mounted as r/o" next to that is a button that says "mount r/w" click that and it should "remount" your system as read/write.
At this point you should be able to replace the old with the new bootanimation.zip.
Reboot, and you're done.
If it still hangs and shows NO animation then my guess is you are using an incompatible bootanimation (that does happen, and will just stay black then your phone will just start, with no animation) try a different one, like the one below I know for sure works on the Infuse

Try again.
I just tried it and it worked, I have a custom MP3 playing during the boot animation as we speak. I'm not on the stock ROM but I'm sure that doesn't matter one bit.
What I did was follow the instructions:
Copy bootsnd.sh to the root
Copy android_audio to /system/media
Run bootsnd.sh in Terminal Emulator. Note, you need to change the permissions of this file using the following command and run it as such:
Code:
# su
# chmod 775 bootsnd.sh
# ./bootsnd.sh
Reboot and it worked. Of course you have to be root for all of these actions but I'm sure you are that.
So, try again.

I just tried it and it worked, I have a custom MP3 playing during the boot animation as we speak. I'm not on the stock ROM but I'm sure that doesn't matter one bit.
What I did was follow the instructions:
Copy bootsnd.sh to the root
Copy android_audio to /system/media
Run bootsnd.sh in Terminal Emulator. Note, you need to change the permissions of this file using the following command and run it as such:
Code:
# su
# chmod 775 bootsnd.sh
# ./bootsnd.sh
Reboot and it worked. Of course you have to be root for all of these actions but I'm sure you are that.
So, try again.

Gosh ... still no good
i did set permission to all files , includs audio file , zip file and this sh file ,all file that may related i set permission to 777
but , don't konw why , still no audio when i reboot
And you're sure that you executed the bootsnd.sh file correctly? Ie; Terminal Emulator won't output anything but just show a new empty line after doing ./bootsnd.sh.
777 is not necessary btw, 775 is enough Not sure which zip file you mean, but it should only matter for bootsnd.sh because that has to be executed.
And you're doing all of this in the root directory of your phone yes? Just to make sure that you're not making these folders etc on your SDCard because that won't work.

i konw , but i wasn't sure which root directory you were meaning , so i put this .sh file into /system folder ,and , yes , and set 777 permission.
zip i mean bootanimation.zip , i do konw one problem that if replaced this file and NOT set permission will cause unstoppable continually reboot...
what exactly should i type?
enter terminal and
su
cd /system
sh bootsnd.sh
reboot

this was what i did ,something wrong?
and i also check that i DID put audio file into /system/media
man , this is making me crazy , i'm kinda losing my mind right now
If the "sh bootsnd.sh" returned no errors in the terminal, you did everything as it should.
You're sure that your audio file is called "android_audio.mp3" and nothing else?
If yes to all of those, I'm not really sure what's preventing it from working.

U Need To click install sound binary under custom sound in the tools
Sent from my Google Nexus S using xda premium
You need to install the sound binary before you import the mp3
U see this option under custom sound just above of the import mp3

[Q] How to enable boot audio with CM

Sorry if this doesn't belong here, I can change audio easily with stock based roms but nothing I've found is working for CM based roms, preferably CM9 if possible. I don't know anything about this, looked up multiple threads none worked I tried the changes they said, editing lines in build.prop, init.local.rc and a way that says to run a script in Android terminal, everything is added/modified I get no audio still

I believe it now works on the latest
Set of nightlies

There are no nightlies for CM9
Tried a few more things can someone help or is it not possible? Don't think I've ever had a cm based rom have on/off audio

There's an app called BAC lite, it shows an option to install boot audio binary and tells to use android_audio.mp3 in /system/media/ I haven't tried it with an MP3 or even a properly named ogg but I'd say to give it a shot for a possible quick, easy fix.
Did it work?

I couldn't get it to work, app changed boot animation fine but when I tried audio it said it installed the file but still heard nothing during boot
Can't remember where I found this procedure but it does work for me using CM7. I would guess it would work for CM9 and above as well.

Another user asked for this, and I helped him through it, so I decided to post it here so everyone can have access to it. I didn't create the file, just came across it one day being bored..I digress.

*NOTE: Anything in brackets is either description of what is happening or an action you need to perform; don't type in anything in brackets*
What you need to do to get a boot sound on CM7/AOSP is the following.
1. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19699565/bootsnd.sh Apparently some people had issues with the first link, so I uploaded it again. Download that file, place on your sdcard.
2. Take whatever sound you want and rename it to: android_audio.mp3 [needs to be mp3 format] and save it to the system/media folder using a file manager that lets you access system directories. I use Root Browser Lite (you can get from Play Store).
3. On your phone, open terminal emulator, and type in the following:
su [enter]
cd /sdcard [enter] *you can store the bootsnd.sh file to any folder on your SD card, so use this command to navigate to it*
ls [to list all files, you should see bootsnd.sh]
sh bootsnd.sh [enter]
You won't see a confirmation, or message, it just runs, and returns you to a # sign.
Reboot, and enjoy your boot sound.
*NOTE*
If you flash / change roms, you'll have to re-run the process to enable the boot sound again. If you get tired of it / don't want it, you can use root explorer and delete the file.
If your having trouble getting sounds to play this should fix the problem.

Here is how to fix it.
Make sure you are mounting in R/W mode on each of these steps.

Delete any instances of it.
Using a app like root explorer, goto /system/bin and delete the file bootsound.
Back out to /system now open build.prop in text editor mode, look for this text.
Code:
ro.config.play.bootsound=1
Delete it from the build.prop and save and exit.
This is optional but recommened.
Reboot phone.
Verify no sound is playing.
Now run the script again and reboot.
You should have a boot sound again.
