[MOD]How to unlock your boot animation audio

Re: easier??

BUMP for CM7.1 Stable SUCCESS But it is a very short boot sequence. :(

i'm not sure what other android system files are set-up like, but to change my boot audio (rooted evo 4g), i used 'root explorer' app (to access system files) as r/o following the folder paths: system-customize-resource. within the resource folder, i located the stock boot audio file (it's the only audio file in the folder). for evo, it's named "SPC_animation_final.mp3". i then renamed the stock file, adding a "1" to the end (so nothing got mixed up). after renaming, i moved it to my sd card, into a folder i named 'stock backup'- in case anything went wrong, i could just move it back. i then replaced the stock boot audio file with a 15 second-long clip that i named "SPC_animation_final.mp3", which i made myself, using the ringtone cutter/editor app.

it's not really all that technical, just renaming, cutting & pasting. worked for me!

Some ROMs do have bootsound enabled but unfortunately the mt4g wasn't one of them.... thats why it wasn't in the "General Section" Yes, some may work with your cut and past method.
 
HI ALL

I'M facing a problem with the boot animation with sound ,my device booting without completing the sound file ... just playing few seconds from the sound , any ideas? see for more info

Best reg

Tnx for replying back dude
The device is Nexus One
im running CM7-RC4 i used RC3 be4 and it's the same problem :(

i can hear the full sound strength only when im rebooting to recovery and swaping the dalvik


tnx again

This is amazing! I was looking all over the world for a solution to this. It worked!!

My phone details:
Google Nexus One
OS: CM7 Nightly cm_passion_full-252.zip
Kernel: 2.6.38.8_AVS-950mV_CFS_AXI_720p_1152MHz_091711_CM7.zip

BUT I am facing a similar issue as mentioned above:

I did some testing with various .mp3 files and found that the sound cuts off EXACTLY at 50% of file length!

Is there something that can be done to fix this??

Thanks a lot for this hack!
 
Try doubling the audio length by adding silence to the end, maybe? Audacity or Audocity (brain fart) is the perfect program for this.

when i enter sh bootsnd.sh it gives me a error chown: unkown user/group root:shell , i have found the line of code that it is talking about(chown root:shell /system/bin/bootsound) but i have no idea why this shouldn't work, any ideas?
 
This was a reported issue and I'm not sure it was ever resolved. The first page is where we began that discussion and it continues on to page 2.


Like this in terminal emulator or use adb shell from pc. This is easier than editing the script and you don't want to run the script more than once anyways, as it borks the sound for good.

su
chown root.shell system/bin/bootsound

thats it. You wont see any confirmation, it may repeat the input at the most.

I had a problem with the audio cutting off as well... file length doesn't matter, it's cutting off around 10 seconds into the animation.
 
Hey Mrdaviso, I have a question and I was wondering if you could help me out. I don't think it will take too long.

*Edit: Nevermind, I figured it out.
