Doctor Who Boot/Shutdown animation for the LG G3 with sound!
WARNING
This is a disclaimer: While this has been tested I am not responsible for ANY damage done to your device. I take no responsibility for bootloops, soft bricks, hard bricks, living brick monsters, your phone proving an omnipotent being fallible(thus negating all existence), your great aunt smoking bath salts, flying monkeys, hot pockets, obamacare, dingleberries, carnivorous dingleberries or Sundays. Use at your own risk!!
Secondary disclaimer: If you have carnivorous dingleberries then you have bigger problems to worry about - but for any phone related questions feel free to message me on here either privately or in the thread.
This is my personal bootanimation for the Sprint LG G3 and I thought I would share it with any other Doctor Who fans out there. The original video is not my work, I simply did the leg work to turn it into a bootanimation. Doctor Who and the Tardis are registered trademarks of the BBC. If using the flashable zips, make sure you make a nandroid in TWRP before flashing these just in case. If you want to revert back to your original bootanimation you will have to restore your backup. I hope to make flashable stock zips eventually but until then, restoring your backup is your best option.
*NEW!* FLASHABLE ZIPS!!
Requires root access and TWRP recovery!
Google Drive
Download:LG G3 Bootanimation with sound!
Download:Sprint G3 Bootanimation with sound!
THESE FILES BELOW ARE NOT FLASHABLE ZIPS! Requires root access!! You have to manually put it into your system/media folder and change permissions(-rw-r--r-- aka 644). Also, you will want to delete your old boot animation(make a backup!). The G3 has two bootanimations on Sprint so if you have the same model I do you will want to replace both bootanimation.zip and bootanimation_sprint.zip(Just rename this file and have two copies in system/media). Then manually put Power_On.ogg(Sprint also has two copies of the boot sound so rename a copy of this to PowerOn_Sprint.ogg as well) into system/media/audio/ui for working sound! You ALSO need to either replace the files in carrier/cust/poweron or just delete that folder altogether(That's what I did).
For the shutdown animation it's the same. Replace shutdownanimation.zip(and shutdownanimation_sprint.zip if you are on sprint) and PowerOff.ogg(PowerOff_Sprint.ogg) to have a new shutdown animation with sound.
I believe At&t, Verizon and Tmobile would be easier but have no way of testing. If anyone wants to give detailed directions for the other carriers, it would be greatly appreciated.
Again, make sure you have backups of your original files saved to your computer. For me if something didnt work I would get a black screen but it would still boot. Other phones can soft brick but it looks like the G3 isn't one of em - still, better safe than sorry! I never ask for donations but if you like/use it, you could always hit that thank button!

EXTRAS
TARDIS LOCK/UNLOCK SOUNDS!
Below you will find two flashable zip files - one to change your lock sounds to the Tardis, another to change them back to stock. As always my disclaimer is in full effect - make a nandroid backup in TWRP just in case. Simply reboot into TWRP recovery, make a nandroid backup, then install your chosen flashable zip and reboot.
Thanks to @engine95 for the flashable zip template

You can search the root partition of your phone and see if those files are anywhere else, then replace them. I know they are in system/media/audio/ui and the carrier/cust/ folders.....I can't remember if they were in system media with the bootanimations as well......
As long as they are in the right places with the right permissions they should work.
Sorry btw, I just saw this.
EDIT: Just realized this was the one I posted in the general forum. I'm on Sprint so I'm not sure where the other carrier's boot sounds are. If you find out which ones they are and what they are named exactly, let me know so I can update the OP.
You're a hero. I just got 2 people to drop their plans to get an Iphone 6 when they saw my phone turn on. Thanks a bunch!

But, is there anyway we can get a pause for a few seconds in the beginning of the audio track in order for it to match up with when the screen is saying 'You didnt say the magic word"?

Looks great i like it a lot but i have to agree with the last post. Can i make suggestion? Instead of droid at the end how about root! So it would read Permission denied.... ROOT....Permission Granted. As that seems a little more appropriate. Can you make one with and with out audio. Otherwise great work!

Yes its because the zip created is for roms with bootanimation located in system/customize/resource. Because your on CM7 your bootanimation is located in system/media. Better off using adb to push it there.
adb commands
1. adb remount
2. adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media
3. adb reboot
Hope this helps you out man!

Not at all. Common misconceptions. Droid is a Motorola phone. Android is the operating system. If your being technical say u have an android phone. People always ask if i got a Droid and my evo is WAY BETTEr.

I liked the Windy Weather live wallpaper that came with the GSIII, but I didn't like the ever so noticeable watermark that is on it. I've also seen requests for versions without the watermark so, I took it out back and beat it senseless until it was gone. See the screenshots below for a preview. (I will add more screenshots later)
READ BEFORE INSTALLING
- I recommend making a back-up of the original WeatherWall.apk at /system/app BEFORE installing this.
- This only removes the AccuWeather watermark. The name of your current city will still be visible.
- This live wallpaper was pulled from a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III. Although it should, I have not tested if this will work on other versions of the Galaxy S III. I don't think it will work on other phones (because of screen size issues), but it may!
- You must have root in order to install this.
- Install at YOUR OWN risk. While highly unlikely, I take no responsibility if this damages your phone in any way.
Installation:
Manually:
1. Download the WeatherWall.apk provided and put it on your SD card
2. Open up your favorite file manager application on your phone that has system read and write capability. I prefer Root Explorer
3. Navigate to wherever you placed the downloaded .apk and move it to "system/app" overwriting the unmodified "WeatherWall.apk"
4. Restart your phone and enjoy!
NEW! Flashable: (Easier!)
1. Download the WindyWeather-NoWM.zip provided and put it on your SD card
2. Re/boot to recovery and flash the .zip file
3. Restart your phone and enjoy!
:good:
nice!

Hmmm... Also make sure when you're overwriting the old one that it sticks. You can do this by looking at the date last modified in your file manager. If it says anything but the current date and time then it did not overwrite it. If that's the case make sure your file manager has SU and root privileges and it is mounted in read and write mode. Once I get a flash working this should be much easier, but it does nothing but fail in TWRP when I try to flash the one I have put together.
ok thanks for working on it....but see thats the prob...there wasn't one there originally. maybe the rom i am on had it removed...but either way it should show up after moving it to that folder under live wallpapers right?
The key is to make sure that WeatherWall.apk is your /system/app directory. Normally you should be overwriting an old .apk. Like you said though maybe you're rom doesn't use it so may not work. As far as I know it 100% works with Touchwiz on ICS. Someone said it did work with an AOSP based rom, but I'm not sure if this was ICS or JB.

Unfortunately, I believe that the city name watermark is coded into the live wallpaper, so unless I had the non compiled version I can't do anything to remove it.

Hi guys I have tried to get the stock international note 3 bootanimation along with the stock boot animation sound of the international note 3. I have tried on mine and it works ok. Remember to make a backup copy of the files you will replace in case you something happen or you dont want it.
Directions
1. Unzip the folder
2. Copy the bootsamsung.qmg, bootsamsungloop.qmg, bootsamsungmini.qmg, bootsamsungminiloop.qmg on system/media folder ( Make sure you correct the permission)
3. Copy the PowerOn.ogg on system/media/audio/ui (Make sure the permission is correct)
4. Reboot and no more At&t Crap bootanimation
UPDATE: Added shutdown animation of stock international
1. Unzip the folder
2. Copy the shutdown.qmg to system/media folder Make sure the permission is correct (now on at&t just removed the shutdownloop.qmg not sure if that file is present on t-mo but you can remove it or just transfer it to your sd card)
3. Reboot and you wont have the loop circle animation when you shutdown your device
Thank you sinichi21! Works perfectly. Finally rid of the last att crapware on my Straight Talk device.

Thank you sir! I was trying to get rid of the AT&T boot animation before through Rom Toolbox but it just made my lockscreen flash on/off. This is a cleaner solution.
I opted to not use the sound file, but renamed the stock one to PowerOn.bak and now I have a silent boot.

Long press the .apk you just pasted and select PERMISSIONS and make sure you change permissions to match the original such as rw-r--r-- in this case. Make sure you do this for each .apk you paste so it matches permissions for the apk you are replacing.

Wow thanks for the post, always thought this would be a little trickier.

Not sure either, I think it only animates when the weather is rain. Although there is a mod in the verizon dev forums that enables animation for all weather variants but I'm not sure if it works for ATT.

well despite the apparent dozens of threads I hadn't seen one, thanks for pointing me to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54487822&postcount=207
I just installed this and works a peach, I now have a sunshine animation, yay.
for those who are going to be confused by this, it's a flashable zip, which since we don't have a proper recovery, doesn't do us much good (although the fake recovery should be able to flash this, I haven't tried it)
you can open the zip and remove the apk and odex files and manually install them, reboot, and you'll be greeted with a lock screen animation for your weather. Tested and working.
Note: if you lock the screen before rebooting, systemui will continually crash
Yea I forgot to mention that you need to delete the odex and replace the apk with that one from the OP in that thread. That's the way I did it even with us having the recovery. Glad you got it working.

It's actually called LGKeyguard (why that is, I couldn't tell you). That is the correct .apk and .odex file, I just tested it out and it does work. I just renamed the 2 in /priv-app with a .bak extension (LGKeyguard.apk.bak for example) and moved the 2 new ones from the zip file into the folder. Just make sure to set the permissions the same as the rest of the files in the folder. Once you get the files in there, reboot and you should see the new animations.
When I download it, it only has the apk in the zip, not the odex. Are you leaving the original odex intact?

No, the one I downloaded had both the apk and the odex file. Make sure you download it from the post that specifies it's for the stock/odex ROMs, and not the one from his OP.

in theory it shouldn't matter, when you reboot if there's no odex it should make one, and if the odex is wrong in anyway it should remake it. so really as long as you get the apk in the right place with the right permissions and reboot all should be be fine ( the apk from the odex version, I think this might matter)
Worked great, thanks

Mine shows rain and thunder/lightning. However, once I ditched the stock weather widget (without freezing it uninstalling it), for "weather timeline" I lost the animations. Looks like you have to use the native weather widget for animations to work.

Batman Theme for Sprint Galaxy S4
Standard Disclaimer: It's your phone.. If you brick your phone, or it becomes self aware and takes over the world, I am not responsible.
Themed phone/contacts, Messaging, Calendar, and Accuweather. Has been tested on NG2 ROM. There is no fw-res modifications so it should work on any NG2 rom. (Sacs, Triforce, ect).
Thanks to @2WhiteWolves for testing on NAE. The apps work fine (calendar, Accuweather), but the priv-apps (SecPhone, contacts, and messaging) are very buggy and are not recomended for use. Thanks for testing for me.
NOTE: You will no longer have phone/contacts in your drawer. They are now BatPhone/Superfriends.
I will post screenshots in post 2 & 3
Download Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzpfAdALNa_gQ00wSnphRUlWSEE/view?usp=sharing
There are 2 installation options
Full Installation:
Do a backup prior to flashing this or anything else
No wipe required
1) Download zip, put on phone storage
2)Install zip from SD
3)reboot and enjoy
Partial Installation:
1) Unzip and place wanted apk files on SD card
2) with root explorer, find corresponding apk in system/app or priv-app. rename to .bak EXAMPLE: SecPhone.apk.bak
3)Copy themed apk to proper folder, and set permissions to rw-r-r
4)reboot
If you have any issues you can just delete the themed apk then delete the .bak from the original and you will be back to stock.
Hope you enjoy it.

Cool theme. Don't know if you would be interested in or if you have already made a boot animation. But if you haven't, here is one with the Joker boot animation. If you want to test on NG2, I am still on NAE. But I don't know why it wouldn't work. It is on pg.70 and 71. If you don't like it I can delete this post.

Awesome, it looked good. I will test today. If want to try the theme, I'd love to have someone test it on the NAE. If you use the 2nd installation instructions, you can test a single apk before flashing.

Tried the SecPhone apk, did not work. Set permission, rebooted was still the same. No big deal, just wanted to try for you to see if it would on NAE. Don't really want an all theme batman, but I do think it is cool. Hopefully the boot animation works on the NG2 for you, please let me know if does or doesn't. It would/will be really cool for you to have Joker boot and batman theme :good:

I'm sorry it didn't, was going to show my nephews they would have thought it was cool, so that kinda sucks that I can't.

I tried it today. For some reason they shutdown animation works, but not the boot. I even renamed and flashed for sprint specific boot animation

I just flashed the Joker boot, everything worked start up boot and shutdown boot. Did you go into root explorer to system> media and do bootsamsung.qmg to bootsamsung.qmg.bak and same with bootsamsungloop.qmg to bootsamsungloop.qmg.bak ? This is what I did.
Don't know if that will make a difference or not.
Didn't have to rename or do that sprint specific boot animation.
I am on Odexed (mostly stock) Super S4 1.5 by at g_ding84 and still on bootloader MF9.

I'll rename them then copy and paste them instead of flashing it. See if that works.

It didn't. And what is weird is that after naming them to .bak , the stock animation still works.

That stinks. The same thing happen when I did the SecPhone.apk, I had stock phone.

If you did just the Sec Phone.apk, you would still have the stock phone. The dialer is in SecContacts.apk. The phone apk handles everything after the call is made.

Ok, I will try again later today.

I went through today and kept changing the boot animations to .baking until I didn't have any boot animation. My phone was using the XAS_bootanimation. I don't even know what carrier that is. But it is working now.

Did the SecContacts_OSup.apk, it worked [emoji2] But when I push on the contact pic to get to their info, it goes black and goes back to home page. Maybe it's because I need to do all your theme.?
It's cool that the bat icon shows when you push on the numbers [emoji106].
I might leave it this way till I get to show my nephews.
Edit: Glad you got it going [emoji41] [emoji106]

You don't have to do the whole theme, but SecPhone/SecContacts work together. Having them both might help, or it might just be a little buggy on NAE. Try them together.
Now that I got the boot animation working I changed the boot sound. (It plays Batman Ridin') If you want to try it I attached it. unzip, copy the .ogg and paste it in system/media/audio/ui. It is not a flashable zip.

Tried the sound it worked. Did the SecPhone.apk with the SecContacts_OSup.apk it didn't help. In superfriends sliding to call made the android process stop working, also dialing did same thing. Deleted it and was able to call out again, it also let's me get to text messaging by sliding, does everything except for getting to contact info. The contact pics are still there, plus on the ones that don't have pics with phone #'s show what you did. Noticed in my goggle account everything had synced except for people details. Sorry I'm not on NG2 to actually tell you if things work or not. I'm glad I can show off your work on the SecContacts_OSup.apk. and the sound.
