[Q] CRT animation (Old Style TV Off) - Droid X General

Now that we have gingerbread for the Droid X, Do we need Root access to try to add the TV Off animation? When We have Root will we adding that feature or turning it on be possible?

I really hope someone can add this. Gingerbread isn't complete without this animation *shakes fist at Motorola* lol

Just to check make sure all animations are turned on under settings>display
just as well do not make your animations fast with spare parts, they need to be set to normal.
At that point the crt animation should be working IF it's included in the build.
Can anyone verify? I don't have a droid x

Spare parts doesn't need root to change the speed of animations; just download it from the market.

Oh. Well either way it should be on it's default settings..

Even with all animations enabled in settings and in spare parts, the CRT animation doesn't happen .

I guess it's for Samsung, SE, LG and HTC phones only then ..sad sad..

It's not just that only LG and HTC put it into their builds, Google included it in Gingerbread... Motorola just took it out, but that's not to say we won't have someone dev up a rom with this very important feature included.

im not familiar with the crt animation.. is that when the phone is powering down?

No it's actually a GB feature. First demoed on the Nexus S a while back.

does anyone know where these animations are stored (framework maybe?)

crt animation enabled and working not for noobs

this method works just tested on the prerooted gb rom for the droid x should also work for the droid 2 the animation is built in to gingy you just have to enable it

I have also confirmed this method works. As stated by silver2ks4, make sure to use moto-res.apk as the dependee apk. Also, avoid trying to shortcut this process by using RootExplorer, as you will more than likely encounter a boot loop (I know from experience ). Be sure to use ADB as prescribed by the OP. All of the steps are there, and the process takes less than 5 minutes to complete. Really nice effect!

Awesome! I followed the instructions and it worked quite nicely. To be honest, this was the number one UI aspect I was looking forward to in gingerbread and I was so sad to see it not present in Motorola's build. Thanks a million for the link to the tutorial.

Is there a non-adb method to getting this to work? ya know for us folk who have never used adb before.

viper rom boot animation

There is a rom for the epic called viper that has a sweet boot up/down animation, does anyone know how to dowenload this animation on to a rooted evo usinbg cm6.1.1?
You need to download the rom and copy out the bootanimation.zip which should be in /system/customize/resource or /system/media/. Then use ADB or something like Root Explorer to replace the your current bootanimation.zip. I dont think sound will work with CM6 though.
thanks for the info, would you happen to know of a nice bare bones rom that would allow the sound?
Post it up if you make it happen I would like to check it out.
dglowe343 you are correct the audio doesnt work, i need to find a rom that supports bootanimation audio and is a barebones rom, i love cm6 but this is a feature i'd really like to get....HELP!
What feature does this boot screen have? Its a pre scripted animation

CM roms are the only ones I've heard of that dont support boot sounds. Any other Sense/AOSP roms should support it just fine.

Worth mentioning..
For a client, They wanted the ViperROM boot animation, boot sound, and phone sounds.
I extracted everything but the boot animation sound.. solely because I cant find it, but the boot animation works fine when used with Boot Animation Changer Lite, download any animation, and then stock.
Then goto the SDcard, and replace the bootanim\stock bootanimation.zip file with the one extracted.
Went back into app, and flashed what it thought was the stock animation, and boom. all worked fine.
hope that helps someone

I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure that any rom that stores the bootanimation in system/media, which I believe is all aosp roms, the bootanimation sound will not work. Only roms that store the animation in system/customize/resource will allow for sound on the bootanimation. Which is where its located on most sense roms. Again, I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

Custom Boot Animations?

Hey guys and gals one quick question. I am coming from a Samsung Mesmerize to a MT4G, and when i wanted custom boot animations i had to root and the install the Voodoo lagfix.
Do i have to lagfix my MT4G or will it run custom boots after i root?
Never mind guys i found the answer...sorry for the post

First you need root some kind of file manager. I use root explorer. Then you download the bootanimation you want. If its not already named bootanimation.zip, rename to that.
If you're using an asop rom like cm7 the bootanimation will be located in system/media, if you're using a sense rom the bootanimation will be located in system/customize/resource. All you do is copy the bootanimation you downloaded and paste it in the correctsponding place depending on the rom you're using. Make sure you switch the permission to r/w before pasting. In root explorer the r/w r/o button is on top.

[REQ] [Theme] LG Prada UI Theme

GSM Arena recently got a hands on video on the UI of the LG Prada phone here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g63Nr-9IFfc
And i have to say, it's one sexy but professional looking UI.
Any themers who are interested in recreating this?
Absolutely reminds me of Go Launcher. Should be easy to pull of with a Go Launcher Theme.
But the black/white icons are fugly as hell...
I was thinking of something that goes beyond the OS, like the system elements like the status bar or popup icons. Kinda like the Black Android theme by Nitroz (which he sadly abandoned)
Actually I love the sleek minimalist design the new Prada phone has and would love to see this thing ported for use in ICS, however I am not going to hold my breath waiting on it. But I may at some point try to mimic the style a bit using custom icons and changing the notification icon colors.

you can get the theme of Nitroz in the hyperdroid rom..they are keeping his theme up to date now
This theme will go great with any phone that has AMOLED. Anything similar?
Well, I have a LG Prada 3.0 from work (promoting it in the store i work), could there be anyway i could "rip" the theme for someone to make it compatible with SGSII or maybe even make it a Go Theme?
Edit: I've been looking for a fairly secure way to root AND unroot it, but haven't found much... When I get home home, i'll take a closer look at how it's set up on the phone.

I found a guide (http://www.ehow.com/how_12211911_system-dump-android.html), but i doesn't work.. I'm guessing it's because /dev/block/stl6 isn't the right path for this phone.
Is it usable if I just copy the /system folder to the sdcard through a root explorer?
Saw the review of it on engadget. Only thing I thought that looked good was the UI. Would love to have it for my phone.

Proper Galaxy S2 CRT off/on Animation (not white screen)

As seen here a video by whitehawkx: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szyp00_EvSU
The SSG2 Epic 4G Touch has proper CRT off/on capability. Not a white screen flash; it actually warps and colour separates the screen before performing a vertical compression. The ROM seen in the video has enabled the CRT features using the same functionality that JKay provides for us on the non-4G version.
When we enable it on our phones, we get a full white screen and then vertical compression only.
I copied the surfaceflinger modules from a stock Epic 4G ROM to a KK5 ROM, and CRT on and off performs the vertical compression on an INVERTED IMAGE. I suppose this is something to do with hardware differences between the devices but I am unsure how to investigate this further.
Any thoughts?
I've attached a cwm update that replaces the libsurfaceflinger modules in /system/lib. This will require root and clockworkmod recovery. I applied this to CheckROM RevoHD v4 (KK5 2.3.6), but I expect it to work for most current rooted ROMs. Please perform a full backup from recovery before you apply.
Looks like this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362354, is on the same track. The live screen rotation is also enabled. I checked the Epic 4G libsurfaceflinger modules and it seem they are of the exact same size as the ones taken from the Galaxy Note in that thread. I guess they are the same modules used. Doesn't really help though does it
Could you please perhaps create a zip to restore the files as they were? Seems far more sensible than restoring a full backup from 5mins before

I have got the fancy screen rotator also installed. Can confirm it works well. Am on kk2.
Waiting or this also to be integrated. The solutions now are not really good.

If you look closely, when you turn off the screen, it will flip vertically first. The rotation effect is great, but we are looking for a perfectly working CRT effect that doesn't flip vertically.
The other thread about the 'rotation mod' is simply the same as what I have done here as the functionality for the rotation is in the same files at the CRT effect, except they have copied the two files from the Galaxy Note. I have copied them from the Epic 4G Touch, but it seems they are the same as the files from the Galaxy Note.
I was thinking about making such a thread. Nice, I totally agree. Looks like we are very close to fixing that CRT animation for good.
The Epic 4G Touch also has a Exynos processor right? The only difference is a larger screen. Why would it work good with that device and not with the S II?
Nice to bring this into the light.
Please some developers fix the mirrored CRT
It isn't that bad, it's more decent than the one in CM anyway
Great

when i copied the files over via root explorer OR flashed it via CWM my phone stuck at the SGS2 screen. could easily ressurrect it via odin...still annoying.
I have already made a proper fix for CRT-off animation. It's already merged in TeamHacksung's ICS repos, and I submitted it also to gerrit for GB/CM7.

I think we should stick to a Samsung based ROM here, are you using a Sammy ROM? KI, KJ, KK, or is it CM7 based?
If you are on KK5 that's strange, but don't worry I've definitely seen that before. I have a feeling that on this device, older CWM versions handle the updater-script differently, and don't automatically set file permissions on files that were copied, or they don't mount the system partition properly. As far as using root explorer goes, that worked for me but I had to make sure that I applied rw-r--r-- permissions to both libsurfaceflinger.so and libsurfaceflinger_client.so after you copy them to /system/lib.

I tried creating an updater-script that backs up the current files to the sdcard and another that restores them using busybox commands, (just for fun), but it didn't work properly. Anyone had success with this?
Anyway, I have attached a cwm update that installs the original files from the XWKK5 2.3.6 build. See attachment below.

You need root to write to /system, so you would need to flash a kernel that gives you root. So a rooted stock ROM, yes, but not an untouched stock ROM.

Boot Animation Help

Hi guys.
I Just got a verizon g2 a week ago and I am trying to change the boot animation to an android L animation which I just found but it doesn't show past what's in the "part2" folder. In other words, it doesn't reach the part where the four dots turn into the word "android". This also happened with an android L boot animation which I found earlier from xda (which I think is the same). This is the link http://www.hotmodinc.com/2014/07/Android-L-Boot-Animation.html. Any help is appreciated. I have a stock rooted rom.
just tried it... seems ok, it only holds a black screen a bit longer after animation finishes...
did you download 1080x1920 size version?

afaik, bootloader (locked/unlocked) doesn't have anything to do with bootanimation...
if your device is rooted and you have access to system files which you can modify and change their permissions - you can change the bootanimation too...
btw i still don't know what is the problem with yours... can you maybe somehow (with some other device or smtn) record a video of your device booting?

hi, i was kinda hoping that you'll record a video with that Android L bootanimation so i could compare it to mine...
i won't go installing all the bootanimations you use just to try and see i hope you understand...
btw which rom do you have? which variant? (although i doubt that has anything to do with the boot animation itself because i can run any of them on my old optimus 2x as long as the resolution fits, and never had problem)
also - open the description text file from the original LG animation zip (since you mentioned that the original one works well) and compare it with the description text file of the any of bootanimations that don't work...

and one other thing to consider as well - maybe your device just boots up faster so the animation can't get all the way to the end
i.e. mine boots in about 30secs (cloudy g3 v2.1, dorimanx kernel, dalvik runtime)

although, i don't know does this work on stock roms (i'm on cloudy g3 ported rom and it does) but you can try this...
also - see the posts below that one, i've posted a "bootanimation" file from "optimus g3" rom's "system/bin" folder for download...
and make sure you give it the proper permissions as described in that post (because they're not standard 644 ones - rw-r-r but -rwxr-xr-x
thanks to @daw41 for solving the mystery

Thanks alot! I have no custom recovery though as I heard you can't get OTA updates if you have one. Could this get me in a bootloop?

I just installed the crDroid ROM and now my boot animation is working perfectly! Thanks for your advice earlier.
