Boot Animation Help.

So i have a rooted Samsung Continuum, And i want to change my boot screen and since i dont have a recovery option right now i cant flash anything.
So i have to place the boot animation zip on the phone, Well heres the problem i cant find where im suppose to place the file?? Any help would be great.

Yeah, i tried doing the same...
But i learned the hard way that you need to have a kernel installed on your phone that supports changing the bootscreen.. Which continuum users do not have yet.. What we need is Clockwork, which there is development going on to get it So, soon

Ahh ok
Looking around i did find bootsamsung.qmg
and bootsamsungloop.qmg
No idea what those are lol.

Its coming tomorrow a pre-rooted, init.d supporting, custom boot animation packin' 2.1update1 kernel with ext4 AND rfs support. (;

NERDGASM!!!! XD Could you please not tease us!!!!!!!??????? lol that is AWESOME!

Just looking at the /system dump files, they are .qmg files. Which I know nothing about, I was also hoping it was just a .zip file in the system media folder. I guess if you find a way to read the .qmg file, and create a new one once you dissect the old one.

Well not many people have this phone so there isnt much right now, There is a dev getting one of these phones so hopefully in a couple weeks maybe longer we should have some cool stuff.
Just a matter of waiting.

Well, the Continuum has been very odd about that... Most phones that are going to get pretty big communities, get them pretty quickly. It really is just a matter of being patient and not having devs rush things.

Thank you you all know your stuff

Need a little help.

Not sure if this is the correct fourm but since i didnt see a tech support forum figured this might be the most logical spot to put it.
My current device is a Samsung galaxy s 4g
Carrier T mobile
Rom
[ROM][CWM] T959VUVKD1 - Deodexed FIXED
Flashed with Odin3 v1.7
The issue i had is i wanted to install the bali kernel onto the phone i downloaded the 2.1 kernel from the forums non UV version but i don't know how to flash it. I tried to find it in the forums but i don't really see any clear directions how to flash it some say clockwork don't have it don't know how to install it. Sorry for my nubness. Then i did try to flash it using odin3 which soft bricked the phone phone computer with a little line going though it. Fixed that without much issue.
Id like Try out non stock kernels and i love what u guys do with the roms but i guess im a little stumped cause i don't know how to eather a find the missing apps i needed or how to flash it properly though odin3. If im totally off the mark im sorry and please forgive me again for my noobness.

OK your probably gonna here some $h1t for not searching but I'll Hook you up. OK you need to go to the cwm final post by krylon360. That will get you cwm. Once u have cwm setup you will boot into recovery and select reinstall packages, this puts you into cwm.
Know to flash the kernel go to "install zip from sdcard" and locate the zip( Bali kernel ) and confirm installation. Let it do its thing and BAM you have Bali kernel. HOPE THIS HELPS YA.
**edit**
To navigate in recovery and cwm use the volume keys to go up and down and power to select.

hey i did look but i guess i was looking for the wrong thing cause everything i came up seemed to be for different devices. Guess im a little more stumped cause the first file i downloaded off the fourm post i found seemed to be a html file? IF that is correct then ok ill go from there and i assume once i stick the zip file on the root of the sd card reboot to recovery mode and install it? This is what i was more confused about then anything.

[RUU][DEVS ONLY][For Porting] HTC Pico [Sense 3.5][Android 2.3.5][Sense Zero]

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.....

[Thinktank] [DEV] ICS SDK port to Sensation

First of all, apologies if this is in the wrong section!
Secondly, do not flash these zips if you expect things to work!.
Thirdly, I'm not a developer. I couldn't program my way out of a wet paper bag. That doesn't stop me from wanting to hack things up though
Now that that's out of the way, I've been trying to get a flashable, bootable ICS update.zip happening for Sensation. Why? Because emulators suck, and I want to play with ICS on real hardware. Also, because it's in progress on other phones, and I've seen no activity regarding it on Sensation yet - despite us having the coolest phone on the block
The first thing I did was to pull apart the SDK image using dsixda's wonderful Kitchen tool.
It's been a while since I dabbled in porting ROMs around the place; I haven't had an HTC device for over a year now, so my first instinct was to then pick apart things from working ROMs and mash them into the ICS tree. Merging the .prop files, adding libs, etc. I nicked everything from CM7 for Sensation.
The zips generated this way flash but don't boot. Fun!
Then I read Siulmagic's guide to porting ICS. Brilliant, how come I never thought of doing that? Ah right, not a dev. That's why.
This time I decide not to mash in anything from CM7. Just leave all the ICS files as they are and only add in the modified boot.img.
The problem here is that now the zips refuse to flash. They all fail with "(status 0)" for some unknown reason.
I don't have the patience to try to debug that particular issue, so my next step is to flash the modified boot.img and system.img files using fastboot.
Aside from the damned barrel of laughs I had trying to get that little trick working, I still have no success. Still stuck at the HTC logo screen with no logcat to see what's going on.
My last brilliant idea is to grab one of the first update.zip files I created (with just the mishmash of stuff from CM7) and replace the boot.img in it.
That flashes OK, but again I'm stuck at the HTC logo again. And still with no logcat!
Anyway, that's where I'm up to for the moment, and so here's the last two files I came up with before giving up for the night:
- modified boot.img + plain /system only
- modified boot.img + file mashup
I hope we can build on this - or at the very least, that I'll learn just WTF I'm doing wrong.
MOD EDIT: Deleted links as even with your warnings people will still flash.
Also, this thread belongs in General until a BETA of a ROM is ready

Idea for tomorrow: try a modified Sense kernel and see if that works.

Try AOSP Bricked kernel, but AFAIK ICS is using other kernel than GB.

Wait for HTC to give us an update

Lol, we'll be here for years* waiting for that to happen!

[Theme]ICS theme[UCKK1, KK2,KK4,KL2]14-toggles fully themed

i have pulled all these pngs from many, many ics themes to make my own for the stock roms who don really want to flash a custom rom.
Toggles include reboot, download and recovery for those on stock that dont have an extended power menu, one flash and now you do..
Instructions:
Place zip on sd card
wipe cache and dalvik cache
fix permissions
flash theme
reboot
this is intended for non-themed stock roms, if you flash over any of the themed roms you will probably have issues. I am just giving love to the ones who like the stock functionality but want a little ICS eye candy, and handy toggles. Youve been warned! If you flash over themed custom rom and then have issues and force closes , i dont want to hear it..thank you
Once again i am not responsible if your phone melts...
This theme features 14 toggles(hard coded in by me)no external app
ICS bootanimation
ICS transition animations
Themed apps include:
Voice search
Voice recorder
tw calaender
twcalculator
tw30 launcher
SystemUI
Sound player
Settings(lockscreen menu in but not working yet, still modifying jars)
settings provider
Phone
music player
media provider
MMS
LatinIME
Job manager
Gmail
Gallery
Email Widget
Email
Dialer
Contacts
Clock package
Camera
Browser..

ok cool..thanks !!

just in case any of you were thinking of trying this out on custom rom regardless of instructions, I already tried on Infused 2.3 and it gives bootloop after flash. =/
Edit: Also will let you know that this will result in needing to reflash back to stock then to the custom rom you had before. So dont try it if you havent backed anything up. I only did this because I was already backed up and was planning on flashing back to Froyo anyways. So i just took a chance on it. Now flashing Infused 1.6 as we speak.

Infuse 2.3 is not even close to UCKK1, 2, 4 or UCKL2....that's why I specifically clarified that in op...so this question wouldn't arise...but yet it did anyway....go figure

That's why I commented...I don't know how much more clearer I can make the op be...but I will edit the op with a list of roms this is compatible with so this does not come up again.

Would it be possible for you to maybe ppost links to individual apks that might work (albeit in a standalone method) with Infused 1.6 (Froyo)? or any custom rom for that matter. Such as links to the dialer apk, boot animation, etc. Maybe the thread could just be turned into a repository for such links along with your project. It just seems useless to post something that can only be installed on stock devices considering that probably most people on these threads have a custom rom on their infuse. Dont mean to be rude or anything either at all. Thanks though!

This is for the stock roms that were posted in the op. If you are not on those roms look else where or make your own. Your asking someone to make things just for you. It's not useless for the people who run stock roms. Your post was a little rude.
