[Q] ICS - ROM Toolbox won't set custom boot animations? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

ROM Toolbox just hangs while installing a custom boot animation in the leaked odex'd ICS.
Anyone know if Seanscreamz SkyScream boot animations can be flashed on leaked stock (odex) ICS? I've got it set up the way I want and don't wanna break anything for the next couple weeks.

Go to the March 28the post. Not the OP!
2)Thank me

Darn, that was fast.
I figured it would takes weeks for an ICS kernel to pop up.

Themes For Stock ROM - 2.3.340

I thought I'd share some themes for the stock rom. These themes are all compatible with the stock deodexed 2.3.340 rom.
NOTES:
1. ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP FIRST!!!! You assume all responsibility for what you do to your device!!!!
2. You must have root.
3. You must have Koush's Bootstrap Recovery to flash the .zips.
4. You must be deodexed first. Flash this zip to deodex if you have not done so yet. You may also use this file to return to the stock theme after flashing my other themes. DOWNLOAD LINK ------ MIRROR

Love it Mike! Works like a charm! Much thanks!
Thanks a lot Mike I have been looking all over the net for this. You should also posted at the Droid X Forums and Droid forums. You're gonna make a lot of people very happy if you posted over there, or I can do it for you with all credit going to you of course.
Is it possible to see more pics of the gingerbread theme on different screen...eg dialer market etc. Thanks

@maddog feel free to start threads wherever you like. I'll only be checking the threads here and at Droid-life (under DX themes), so just refer people to those threads for any questions.
@HCdroid This initial version of these themes do not skin any apps. Updates will be coming though that will include browser, market, dialer etc. Stay tuned
FYI waremike32 = unkleduke, I had to use my old nick to post the links here.
My phone did not like, i have stock 2.3.340 rooted and when i installed it almost bricked my phone. Would get stuck at the initial boot logo and go nowhere. Luckily i figured out taking my micro sd out and plugging the phone into usb while booting made the clockwork mod bootstrapper pop up so i could use my backup image. Almost had to SBF.
Not sure what caused it but man i wish i could get that gingerbread theme working!
Just got it loaded on my X. Everything I was hoping plus then some. Thanks for this!...very reluctant on running a custom ROM since I'm pleased with the stock one and this fit the bill perfectly.

Did you deodex first? First boot may take a few minutes. You should see the droid eye animation run for awhile. As long as it doesn't loop, it is probably running fine.

Fairly certain i deodex, but still it never got past the initial boot image, droid eye never loaded. it sat at that first screen for about 5 minutes, never moved on. I used my restore point and got it back to normal so all is well. Im still going to try it out again, ill try to deodex again and see if that makes a difference
It couldn't hurt to manually mount /system before flashing each .zip. Might help.
how do i deodex the ota 2.2.340?
Instructions on OP include a zip file to deodex 2.3.340. I used it and worked flawlessly

Just to verify, if I make a backup before installing deodex and theme, restoring the backup will get rid of both and I will be back to complete stock?

Worked great thank you.
Works nicely, one issue!
For some reason now I do not see my live wallpapers on the home menu! Any thoughts?
Restore a backup, confirm your wallpapers work. Then reflash the theme and be sure to mount /system first.

[Q] (Q) can you put themes on the stock ics rom?

i am hoping to put the KOB4LT R3V4MP3D 4.1 ICS theme on my skyrocket. i have cwmr touch installed and i am rooted. i was running superlite with that theme but wanted to try the new stock leak. it is running a lot smoother an with less problems then superlite did. so i want to know if i can put it on a stock rom without screwing everything up.
Yes you can flash random things like the toggle mod, but I'm not sure if every mod will work perfectly though. Trial and error then nandroid

well u shouldn't be mismatching framework-res.apk's, as each from chef puts different configs in there from my understanding, but u can flash the systemui.apk without issue I would think, as well as some of the inverted and aosp apps included in that theme

Custom Boot Animations

Does anyone have a list or resource for putting custom boot animations onto this device? I can't imagine other device animations will work, but I've never done this. Searching has not helped me a single iota!
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
I used ROM toolbox pro to change my stock boot animation.

I have ROM Toolbox Pro as well, but none of the settings I apply stick. SystemUI icons don't change, and the bootloader animation stays stock. Am I doing something wrong here?

Same here (root66 ROM).
The stock VZ boot animation annoyed me so much I wanted to punch a baby every time I started the phone & I installed ROM Toolbox (an app I normally don't use) to get rid of it.
I picked one of the custom animations, told it to DL & install & rebooted. The custom boot did not work at all, but it did get rid of the VZ [email protected] and turned it into the generic blue swirl Samsung animation with no sound which is what I really wanted in the first place.........
One thing ROM TB DID work for was changing the battery icon. All my icons where white except the ugly stock green battery icon.
ROM TB changed it to a white digital readout icon that looks perfect with all the other white task bar icons.
I have used Rom Toolbox on three phones now and the boot animations have NEVER worked for me. How can I do it manually?
If I look in the /data/local/ folder there is a bootanimation.zip but that clearly doesn't mean anything!
On the Droid Inc it was /system/media/ if i recall correctly. I looked in there, and there was bootsamsung.qmg or something. A Google search told me .qmg was a Samsung theme file. I am no themer but that may be worth a look.
Edit: ssnapier, i have checked on my phone in data/local/ and didn't have a bootanimation.zip might be where Rom Toolbox is placing it.

read beans post above, if you arent running a kernel with boot ani support you arent going to see it.
I know it has boot animation support now, but the reason I haven't flashed a recent version is because of the same thing that enables boot anim support. The kernel is unstable for some people.

Does rom toolbox work once rooted???

I used rom toolbox to change some status bar icons on my rezound.
Before I try on my S3 I wanted to see if anyone knew whether or not it'd also work with our phones.

I can say this, I had installed the recovery needed to flash imo's kernel then decided I wanted to check Rom manager out, which I had to flash the recovery that Rom manager flashes which junked out something.. phone just kept booting into recovery, flashed my backup and all was good
I used Rom manager to flash synergy 1.1, 1.2. Wellnj flashed CWM 5.8 or w.e...non touch CWM and had no issues. The easiest way now is EZ recovery.. you can download it from the market..it really is simple..if you need help I can help you.

+1 EZ recovery is the recommended way to flash recoveries on the GS3. its super easy and free in the play store
Thanks for the replies. I'm good flashing roms. I was looking to change the status bar icons. I actually meant rom toolbox not rom manager. Sorry

ROM Toolbox changed my battery icon with no problem
I keep ROM Toolbox around for some of the root utilities. I haven't used any of the theming functionality. I have seen a few threads where people have mentioned that the boot animations do not work. I can confirm that the CPU settings seem to stick. I haven't set them to apply at boot but I have had the phone OC'd to 1.7 for a day.
I'm thinking that since the toolbox came out of the DX days some of the functionality won't directly port over. YMMV. Just keep a nandroid around in case of issues!

That's true, they don't.
What's funny is, I hated the stock VZ boot animation/sound so much I wanted to smash the phone every time it booted. I tried using ROM toolbox to change it, & while the new animation didn't work it got rid of the VZ crap & changed it to the generic Samsung boot image (a blue swirly thing) with no sound which is all I really wanted anyway........

I ended up flashing a zip invisiblec posted to get that boot animation. Samsung uses a weird pair of files for their boot animation. I haven't looked into them much because of their odd extension.

[ROM] NinjaROM 08/19/12

MidnightNinja released a place holder ROM until [email protected] gets updated, so I thought I'd share it. Here is the post from Rootz.
So, I have decided to put out a ROM that will serve as a place holder until withere2 gets Tweaked up and running.
This serves two purposes:
1. To get you on FP5
2. To get rid of the brown
I will be working on getting more hacks in there, its just difficult since school starts up tomorrow for me. As such, don't freak out over a lack of updates.
At this point, this is more of a glorified theme than a ROM. Certain elements I have wanted to add I just haven't had time, so I figured I'd upload before I leave.0
As usual, you are responsible if your phone dies.
Thanks:
Withere2: for the FP5 deodexed base
Sircrazy
Endless
CUJO
Gummy: For theming elements
and probably tons more people that I should have been keeping track of
To Do:
Lidroid Toggles
Reboot Menu
I apologize in advance if I missed you for your work. Please Message me and I will correct it. I have been doing this in between packing and I am a total mess right now
Flashing Instructions:
Mount System
Install Zip
Wipe Data
Reboot
Note: Download link will take time to work since I am uploading it over 3G.
Download:
Mods Included:
AOSP GB Theme
AOSP MMS, setup and a few other apps
GPS.conf edit
build prop tweaks
AOSP Sounds
Debloated(Tell me if I removed an important app)
If you are like me you miss the toggles from [email protected], here's something to get you by until [email protected] 2.? comes out. So after a bit of tinkering I bring to you Scrollable Toggle Widgets for this ROM only!
To change the Widgets and their order there is an app in the drawer called QuickPanelSettings, it's pretty much self explainable.
Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for anything you do.
OK, now the yada yada...
Mount System (I mount all of them just for old sake)
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Install NinjaROM_Toggles.zip
Reboot
Enjoy

so can i get from Tweaked 1.5 to tweaked 2.2 FP5 by flashing Ninja rom via CWM then flashing tweaked 2.2 ROM only?
If I am thinking correctly the Ninja will get me new Kernal and modem, and I get to use those with the Tweaked ROM only? Do I stay rooted by doing it this way?

Updated the OP...
Ok.....I flashed Ninja and think I was on fp5...I did let it boot up and I played around with it for a few minutes. I saw 2 different signal strengths in the "about phone" section. So I think I was on fp5. Then I flashed tweaked 2.2 (ROM only via CWM) after mounting system then did a data wipe and reset.
Nowhere in the about phone does it say fp5.....how do I know if I am on fp5 kernel and radio? Kernel reads 2.6.35.7 EP4
And both basebands end in EP4. And build number ends in FP1.
How could this have happened? And is there a package I can flash over Tweaked 2.2 and just get fp5 kernal and radios?

if you want Tweaked with FP5, see this post: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/32311-fp5-deodexed-rom/
basically, just flash the updaterizer and then the FP5 kernel.
FWIW though, I installed tweaked via ODIN and everything reads FP1 except for the kernel (FP5).

If anyone can help me out, I appreciate it. Still cant find a CWM of the FP1 modems only

I am now showing FP5 for both of my baseband versions and FP1 for Kernel and Build number......
Not sure if I have to edit build properties manually still to get updates to stop or should that have stopped it. I tried to edit build properties with File Manager but kept getting error messages.....Any thoughts? I know not to use ES Explorer.....
Also I am getting great service on 4G but on 3G it is dropping out like crazy, can't even connect.....? Any thoughts? Since I can't reflash radios due to having to have a previous version to flash over to get the newest FP5.....(I had to have EP4 to get FP1 in order to get FP5)
Thanks again for all the help....
Regarding the notification, try Paul's cwm flash files.

NinjaROM does NOT have TSM parts. it is basically a themed FP5 ROM (an FP5 placeholder until Dwith completes tweaked 3.0). so the lockscreen settings is the same as stock (under location & security).
the stock e-mail app should have push notification.
