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.

Woo that would be cool, as i like many Boot Animations!

Actually that's just for installing boot animations, and what k8sh says is to have many of them and in every start up it pick up one ramdomly.

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 just randomly post unuseful and uninformative comments in threads to be a douche? You achieved your objective.
And yeah I reboot my phone since I go to recovery to flash zips. Ever heard of those? Apparently that concept eludes you.

Correct.
There is a app I came across called BootRandimation.

I have never used it so I don't know how well it works, but it is supposed to do what you want.

Tried it but it didn't work. I only tested it real quick though. The developer should at least have a trial version as it takes longer than 15 minutes to know how to set it up and reboot. Thanks for the heads up on the app.

Just flashed the 60mb file from the link in op, works fine. But I am running aosp and bricked 1.6 kernel. If your phone runs init.d scripts at boot this will work. Is a nifty idea tho, cos I have 20 different animations so will be a surprise everytime I reboot.

Hi, I want to know how to boot more than one rom using Boot Manager... i've tried to do it numerous times but each time I just get frozen on my carrier logo on reboot. What partitions do i need setup? I'm a bit of a noob so if it's really complicated can you simplify it. Thanks in advance.
Dude, I made a thread on this - did you need to make another one?
I've had no luck either... Tried it on about 5 different ROMs, but never works! Have you tried formatting your memory card?

Are you sure?
Boot manager app has given official support for our device. And I have seen proof of it working - on youtube on a Desire S booting CM7 & MIUI.
Also bootmanager cleverly overrights the kernel with the new boot.IMG each time you flash.

Well the app allows you to change the boot.img before you boot into a different ROM. So it should still work

Today I got it to work with Virtuous Infinity + ViperSaga and now using Virtuous + CM10.

QuestionI was wondering if dual booting recovery/bootloader was a possibility for our device? If so what do we need to do to accoplish this? I have this on my AT&T SGS2 i777 and enjoy being able to test a ROM before using it, and I could have JB on one and ICS with a custom kernel(Blackout BeastMode v2.1) on the other. I think an official CWM Recovery would help or include this, because I believe right now its unofficial. I dont know for sure, I have used TWRP for a while now.
Any input is appeciated so long as it is on ow the xda forum rules.
This is a really good idea I tried to manually set up dual boot from the market but it would fail every time at modifying the boot image. I would love to be able to bounce between to roms as well.

Is there any work around to get ROM Manager to work on the HTC One X?
Whenever I try using the application it tells me that I must install "ClockworkMod recovery" and It appears to be unavailable for the HTC One X currently. Am I just doing something wrong here?
Yeaaaaa. Everything you just mentioned is wrong. Do not use rom manager, or CWM. You'll brick as it IS NOT supported for our phone.
That is, if you have a branded dual core version with LTE.

Why not just flash thru recovery?
If you're running the CM10 ROM, I'm pretty sure there's a nifty updater app available from play store. It basically checks your current version and only downloads the parts needed for the next nightly you want to install, which saves doing a full download and flash. But like I said that's only for CM10 users.

Rom manager only ever worked well with CM roms. But even then it's better to use twrp. Using it on stock based roms is asking trouble.

Most people just flash through recovery with twrp (which has a nice touch screen interface btw). I've heard that the highest supported version for the HOX is 2.3.1.0, so just make sure the version you install is supported.

Dirty rom comes with flash Gui it allows you to atleast switch them in the android os vs recovery?

Its remnants from a year or two ago. It was a must have app for rooted phones and was quite awesome in its day. So people upgrading from phones after a 2 year ownership, its just figured that they need it like before.

Download:
Nexus 7 (2013-Wifi) ---
OUDHS 1.0.3.4 - Mirror 1
OUDHS 1.0.3.4 - Mirror 2

Thanks to:
Shabbypenguin and the rest of OUDHS for their work on this recovery for the Galaxy S4.
Koush for CWM.
Google for AOSP.
My testers.
OUDHS Recovery is my favorite on my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S4 and Shabbypenguin created it. This is a port with minimal changes for the Google Nexus 7 (2013). The controls are self-explanatory, and the reason why I love this Recovery over normal CWM or TWRP. Maybe you will too. You can get to Rainbow Mode by scrolling down the list a few times.
Confirmed Bugs:
ADB Access Not Working
If using SuperSu Root for 4.3, you will always see a "Disable Recovery Flash?" popup when you choose to Reboot. Always say No, or you will lose root until you flash the SuperSu Root through a Custom Recovery again.
