Stock boot animation on custom roms - HTC Amaze 4G

Is there any way to get the stock T-Mobile boot animation (with sound) on the custom ROMs (ARHD, Speed, Kaioken, particularly)?
Thanks

Thanks... but... ummm.. how do I get it out of the stock ROM? lol
The RUU zip only has *.img files and 7-zip won't extract them.

So, I take it the only way to get it is to:
Install the RUU
Copy off the zip
Install the custom ROM
Then replace the boot animation with the one copied from the RUU​?

Hey download powerISO or powerarchiver from Google
Than open that IMG file in it and extract the files you want.
Easy dude

There's a link in my signature which says gb stock rom, it's a stock tmobile rom even that has the boot animation

Success!
I pulled the boot animation and the ruby_startup_audio.wav file from the GB ROM in your sig, then used "Driod Management" to move them to the phone, rebooted, and voila! I've got an android rocket with audio!
Thanks!

Good job!
Well I have no idea why you like the Stock boot animation it's kind of irritating and loud but whatever.
You can also change the bootanimation by going into customize > resource > then finding the TMOUS_bootanimation.zip
Find a bootanimation you like and rename it to TMOUS_bootanimation.zip
You can also change the downanimation (the boot for when it get turned off.) Do the same thing except rename it back to TMOUS_downanimation.zip . :good:

Using my daughter's words "it's so cute!" lol.
I've used MANY custom ROMs (as well as the stock ones, obviously) across a few different android devices, and I've never really liked any of the boot animations that much, but for some reason I just really like the little android rocket! I'll probably get sick of it after a while, but I plan to upgrade phones as soon as the new Xperia 1l comes out (hopefully T-Mo will carry it because I kinda need the wifi calling).
I'm still trying to find a downanimation I like... So far the one that's on your latest ROM is pretty cool.

[BOOTSCREEN][Last updated Feb22]_Custom Bootscreens for Wildfire.

Hello guys, I wanted to start a collection of bootscreens for Wildfire!
Guide on how to make/use custom boot-screens by melvinchng.
Also a quick guide on how to use these bootscreens in post #3.
Download Link in the images, CLICK THE IMAGES TO DOWNLOAD
Earth Latest Screen (still tweaking on this one)
This is a Bootscreen I did for my buddy daddyspud's Ds ROM
Google bootscreen loader created by djdevine2
This current screen is a first of many that I want to give out to the community.
Lets fire up the phone!
Aurora streak
Here are the N1 style bootscreens
_____
Download both N1 screens and additional files here
N1 CyanogenMod Bootscreens
_____
Please let me know what you think of the screens that I upload. Also all suggestions are welcome!
The animated previews you see on this page are low quality animated gif images which are set to loop through the whole sequence, the final files that you get will have good quality animations with proper loops.
Hope you find these useful.
So here is a video of a few select bootscreens. Just wanted something better than the Gif's above, (still not that great) all these look even better on the phone.
How to use these Bootscreens.
First off this is a basic guide, if there are easier/better/correct methods, please do let me know
Please read the full guide before starting.
Theory: So once you have the bootscreen.zip downloaded, you need to send it to your phone's internal memory in a particular location. Generally this location is data/local, but depending on your current ROM the location may differ.
Things required:
Rooted phone
Root explorer (or any similar app that gives you access to edit the internal memory eg: super manager)
Procedure:
Copy the downloaded bootscreen.zip file to your sd-card.
Open root explorer (or anything similar).
(backup) Just in case anything goes wrong or if you want to keep a copy of the original boot animation, copy to bootanimation.zip file you find in data/local directory to your sd-card.
Long press the bootscreen.zip file that you downloaded and copy it. (in root explorer long press open context menu, may change depending on your app)
Navigate to data/local on your phone's internal memory and paste the file. Accept the prompt about replacing the file that already exists.
You're done!
Reboot and enjoy.
Note: If the bootscreen.zip file is not found under data/local run a search through the app or on the ROM zip package that you have installed to get the location.
For those of you running CyanogenMod 7, you dont have to replace the original file, placing the bootscreen.zip file under data/local is enough.
N1 boot animation please .

Hey I like the N1 animation alot, but it seems to go too fast... if I simply change the 30 fps to say, 20, will that make it slower? and will it take longer to boot because the animation is slower, is there a set amount of times the animations run before you enter the OS itself? Or does the animation run untill the OS loaded up?

For future reference, this probably belongs in themes and apps.
Anyways, you can probably pull it from the system dump. Is there one for somewhere?

Ok installed and works. Well copied the bootanimation.zip over anyways. Didnt cwm install it.
Thanks. When you installed the bootanimation.zip, how did you do it? Better yet, where did you place it?

You put it in system/media. Should replace the one that is already there. Check your system folder and put it wherever your current one is. You'll need to rename it bootanimation.zip.

Edit: n00b mistake....I got it to work now! Works on all three roms I mentioned above.

Simply replace and set permissions.

unzipped the file myself and replaced bootanimation.zip in /system/media/ and it worked flawlessly (changed permissions to rw-r--r--)

I hate to be a noob, but I just want to be safe. Can you change boot animations on stock rooted or do you need to have a custom rom flashed. Is it really as easy as copy and pasting. Along with renaming your old animation.zip

Yup, it's that easy. This was one of the first things I tried after rooting. Just make sure the file permission are set correctly on the new bootanimation.zip folder or you will get a default "android" bootanimation.
Should be:
R W E

x - -

Thanks a bunch. Just don't want anything bad happening since my Captivate bricked
Thank you Notach!!!! my Atrix looks so cool!!
Love this boot animation. Best one I've seen by a phone builder.

Do you still have the captivate? If so I may be able to fix it for you and if I can't I know Josh from mobiletechreviews.com probably can. I would try for the cost of shipping with no guarantees, Josh charges a reasonable fee but it would be worth it to have it working for a backup. Have you tried using a jig on it to get into download mode?
You can pm me and hopefully if you still have it we can get it running for you again.

Sorry I'm a little confused on how to get this working. I'm on CM7. Downloaded it. Went to root explorer and cord and pasted it to system/media and set permission but when I rebooted it was standard CM7 boot up. Did I need to extract the zip to media folder? Sorry for the confusion never messed with boot img before
Edit. Ok I tried extracting and I got a folder named bootanimation and I fixed permissions on that one also and rebooted but no luck :-\

[Q] How do I add boot sound into custom ROM with it removed?

Hi, I am using HyDrOG3N-ICS ROM and like many custom ROMS the boot sound is removed. How could I add a boot sound back into the ROM?
Thanks

Open rom with Win rardo not extract .
Locate and open System then open ETC .
Then from ADD button add POWERon.wav for GB or .OGG if its ICS close and flash the rom .

Take the PowerOn.ogg sound file, and put it in /system/etc using Root Explorer. Make sure you remount /system as R/W first.
I have tried this already and it is not working for me is there anything else that needs to be done?

Yes it defiantly had sound and plays. I assume the boot animation uses the system volume?

Yes, that was going to be my next question. Is your system volume turned up to an audible level when you boot?
Yes all turned up to max. Is there anything in the bootanimation.zip it's self that affects sound?

I don't think so...
And it turns out this may be related to the ROM after all... when I search the HyDrOG3N-ICS thread for the string "boot sound", I get a lot of results of people asking how to add it in, but no replies on how to get it done.
EDIT: after some searching, I found this post. Maybe you can try using this dev's kitchen app to attempt enabling the boot sound?
Sorry, nevermind. That looks like it is a kitchen app for his specific ROM, and may not work for HyDrOG3N.
EDIT 2: Try adding the PowerOn.ogg file to /etc instead of /system/etc. This folder (/etc) SHOULD be a logical mapping to /system/etc, but sometimes, it just doesn't work that way for some reason.
Still no luck. From further reading it seems boot sound is not supported at all on some roms. I have found suggestions of custom scripts that may work however most seem aimed at cm7. Think I may try some tomorrow. Thanks

How am I supposed to know? I don't use that ROM, nor am I the ROM chef.
Either ask in the ROM thread, or do some research. Google is your friend.
I don't mean to be short with you, but this is just lazy. Type into google "ics rom boot sound".
