Changing Boot Image - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Can anyone give instructions on how to change the Skyrockets boot image? I am running Macnut and the boot image that came with it is terrible. Love the rom though. (Not talking about the boot animation!) I've changed that already.

Thanks, but I have already changed the boot animation. I was wondering how to change the Boot Logo that appears before the animation.

Boot Up Sound For CM7's

Does anyone know if the CM7 Roms supports the ability to play bootup animation sounds?....I believe I read somewhere that they don't but I'm not sure if they were referring to the CM7 Roms or a different Rom...I read this long before I crossed over to the CM7 world...so I don't know

Did you remove the words in front of pc36img and place it on root of your sd boot into bootloader? It's not flashable.

what do you mean messed up. did you remove (kewlklass) leaving just PC36IMG.zip, you put that on your sdcard, power down phone , press and hold power and volume down, let bootloader find the file press volume up for update and then again for reboot

[Q] Porting MIUI v5

Heya guys! I'm a little new to this but I've been a pretty decent member of XDA and most importantly, like many of us here, a flashaholic. I'm not a dev at all nor do I currently have any abilities, skills or anything to be called one. Anyways, onto topic, I've been trying to port MIUI v5 to the skyrocket because it is one sexy beast from what I can see. Of course, with no skills whatsoever, it's been a very difficult task. I've only been searching and using guides here and there only to run into a wall because there isn't a guide for v5, or at least not yet.
The first time I tried to port it, it wouldn't boot at all and would be stuck at an unresponsive black screen after the samsung logo after powering it on.
However, this made me research a little bit more and I made a second port using the Galaxy Nexus MIUI rom from the official site and using CM 10.1 nightly 20130501. I only managed to make it go to the MIUI boot logo screen and it's stuck there now with no progress and I am now confused. Lol, so uhm... any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated please? I'm willing to learn and would appreciate any help. In the mean time, I'll also continue to research. Thank You!
I believe Team Rookie would be able to help with that, they are in the Development section.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727.
You shouldn't use cm 10.1 to port miui v5, miui v5 is still android 4.1.2 based whereas cm 10.1 is 4.2.2 and on top of that the nightly builds are rather unstable right now. You should use a cm 10 stable build. I have been trying to port the ROM myself and only get as far as the boot animation, but i can tell you mixing bases probably won't work.....

Yes haha I realized after further research in that miui v5 was actually 4.1.2. I am still trying to port it now and still to no avail and only stuck at the boot screen. Perhaps I should learn how to modify the framework. I'm pretty sure that's the only possible problem. But of course I wouldn't know much of where the problem lies xD

Yup PatchRom is a MiuiAndroid (UK) thing.

I've only ever added one line for permissions for shelld in system\xbin but I'm sure there's more that needs to be done, since none of my port attempts have made it past the boot animation.

The miui script has a bunch of aroma stuff in it. There's also a bunch of additional folders in the miui rom. So I'm debating which script to edit, the miui or the cm10. The miui has a bunch of mccblk's in it though that scare me. I know I have to at least change those to match the i727 but after that I'm not sure what's going to happen.

As far as I know the only way to hard brick one of these phones is to flash a kernel from another device. Soft bricks are easy fixes as long as you know how to use Odin and in some cases all you have to do is reboot to recovery and flag another ROM. That's why I've stuck with Samsung.... easy to flash, easy to fix.....

I am still stuck at the boot screen as well and what I've added to the updater-script were also a few things for the xbin and su and busybox. Since v5 doesn't have an 'invoke-as' I was a little stuck there as well. And to think I was a little happy that it managed to flash and go to the boot screen successfully. Looks like there is a lot more things to do lol

I was hoping no one would ask that I've been piece mealing it and I don't remember all the steps. The miui rom structure is quite a bit different then most. I haven't decompiled any apks though, just putting the right pieces in the right places. A lot more luck than skill. I've also lost the ability to see my external sd card with the computer either thru usb or mounting in recovery. Root explorer still sees it though. Don't know what that's all about.

ROM that supports shutdown animations?

I couldn't find a thread on this, If there is one forgive my ignorance.
I'm running Cyanogenmod 10 Nightlies with the stock kernel and while customizing my phone I wanted to change the boot/shutdown animations. It was easy changing the boot animations, but when I went to change the shutdown animation it wasn't so easy.
Every thread supplies a file and says "it's easy" they tell me to put the file /system/media/shutdown but I've tried that so many times today and it just doesn't work!! Lol I finally came to the conclusion the Cyanogenmod doesn't support shutdown animations (or maybe I really am doing something wrong)
In any event does anyone know any ROMS or kernels for our phone that support shutdown animations? I would love to have on (I even found one to match my boot animation!)
Those exist????

If my memory is functional, the above listed ROMS are Tweaked (TW) Stock ROMS, but still mainly stock..
What I DO know is that our CM 9/10 ROMS don't support shut down animations, I think it has something to with he kernel..
