[INFO] Online sound converter - Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps

I've noticed we don't have a lot of boot sound options in our forum, so I'm just making my own. Anyway, this site will convert almost any format to ogg http://media.io/ so, you can do it yourself. I've just been taking ringtones and such and converting them. 9 to 12 seconds lonh seems to work. I've attached a sample, (it's a little longer than optimum). Just unzip, to a convenient location. These instructions are for files you've converted, sample file is already properly named.
1) Using your file manager browse to system >media> audio> ui> PowerOn.ogg
2. Rename the file PowerOn.ogg to PowerOn.bak*
3. Browse to the location of the ogg you want as your new boot sound.
4. Make sure it is named PowerOn.ogg
5. Copy it to system > media>audio> ui> PowerOn.ogg
6. Reboot and enjoy
* Linux is case sensitive so the power on sound must be PowerOn.ogg with uppercase P and O

Changing Bootanimation/Startup sound

Hi I have a rooted Nexus One FRF91 Build
I want to change the bootanimation and startupsound
I was able to change the bootanimation through ADB because the ROOT version was not working.
Same with the startup sound, is it even possible to have a startup sound on a nexus one?
Guide would be nice, also is there some secret thing I need to know, I am rooted tried the guides but it did not work.
Take whatever bootanimation you want, copy to /system/media/bootanimation.zip (overwrite the system one).
If you want to retain system bootanimation but still overwrite it - copy to /data/local/bootanimation.zip instead (might not work - I'm not sure if it's ROM-specific).
Don't know about the startup sound, living perfectly without one.
My inquiry was based of this (from adroidfourms .com)
I bolded the part I didn't understand/possible reason it is not working for me
PLEASE NOTE: You must be rooted. You must reboot in order for these changes to take effect. You should have Root Explorer (although I am sure there is a way with ADB commands as well though). You may want to create a backup (CWM or the like), just in case. Also, most of the people I have seen do this are running a version of Dirrk's/jt's kernel, which allow boot/shutdown animations to be changed. The kernel you are currently using when attempting to change the animations must allow for them to be changed for this to work.
The file needed to change your boot-up animation should be a .zip file.
I successfully changed my bootup animation by doing the following:
Boot-up animation:
1) download a new boot animation .zip file (I put mine in /sdcard/downloads)
2) open Root Explorer
3) navigate to where you put the new .zip
4) copy the new .zip
5) paste it into /data/local
6) rename it "bootanimation.zip." (if it isn't already)
Also, if you want to change the startup/shutdown sounds:
Startup sound:
1) DL a new sound file
2) convert to a .wav file (using Winamp+.wav converter/iTunes)
3) put on SD card
4) open Root Explorer
5) navigate to /system/etc
6) rename "PowerOn.wav" to "PowerOn.wav.old"
7) navigate to where you placed the DL'ed .wav file
8) copy
9) paste into /system/etc
10) rename it "PowerOn.wav"
Shutdown sound:
1) DL a new sound file
2) convert to .ogg file (I used Winamp+.ogg converter)
3) put on SD card
4) open Root Explorer
5) navigate to /system/media/audio/ui
6) rename "shutdown.ogg" to "shutdown.ogg.old"
7) navigate to the DL'ed .ogg file
8) copy
9) paste into /system/media/audio/ui
10) rename it "shutdown.ogg"

Boot Sounds?

I'm on 2 different AHD. 1 has CM 10.1 RC2/4.2.2 & the other has CM 10.2/4.3. I got the same custom boot animation on both. Its the red umbrella. Any way to add sound?

The apps:
First you will need a couple apps. You will need absolute system, root explorer and file converter. You can get them from the android market, just do a search for them. They're not free but if you know anything about root you probably already have root explorer and maybe even absolute system, but you will need file converter by ice cold apps.
The programs:
Again if you know anything or a decent amount about root you probably already have these programs but if not then download them. You will need 7Zip (preferably 7Zip) because as far as I know it is one of the only if not the only program that can zip files correctly WITHOUT compression which is mandatory because if there is any compression applied to the bootanimatiom.zip file OT WILL NOT WORK! You will also need either GVIM or Editor++ in order to properly edit the desc.txt file in the bootanimation.zip which we all know is what makes the boot animation work and if that is not configured correctly then, well, you're gonna be throwing things.
The method:
1.
Find the boot animation you want and download it using absolute system or from whatever source, whether it be from a forum thread or whatever. If you download it from a source other than absolute system you have to make sure before applying it you have to place it on the root of your sd card and make sure it is not named bootanimation.zip if there are other boot animations on your sd card because if they are named the same, obviously, they will overwrite eachother so name them however you want.
2.
Find the sound you want to use, it can be any sound file as long as it's short enough (or not) to play completely on boot. Download it, place it in your sd card and open the file converter app. Use file converter to find the file and once you've found and selected it select to convert it to .ogg. It MUST be converted to .ogg or it WILL NOT work. Once it is converted find the converted version ("sound".ogg or "whatever you named it".ogg) and use root explorer to move it to /sytem/media and leave it there for now.
3.
Plug your phone in to your computer, make sure USB debugging is enabled, and put your phone into USB mass storage mode once your phone is connected. Open up the files from your sd card on your computer and find the boot animation .zip you are going to change and move it to your computer. Next open up 7Zip and find the boot animation .zip file you just moved. Select the file and extract it to wherever you want to on your computer. Once you have extracted the .zip files with 7Zip go to the extracted files on your computer.
Note: (This next part will save the edited version as the orginal version so if you want to make a backup before you edit it just rename however you want or copy it into a separate folder named desc backup.)
4.
Right click on the extracted desc.txt file from the boot animation amd right click on it. Once you right click you will see an option that says either "edit with Editor++" or "edit with VIM" depending on which program you decided on (I prefer Editor++). Select the option and it will open up the desc.txt in your editor of choice. There may be a lost of guidelines in the desc.txt file for editing parts of the desc.txt but this is usually only in stock boot animations. Decide where you want the sound file to play and comment in the sound file you want to use by adding a line under the part you choose it to play at by typing "s 'sound'.ogg" DO NOT type what I wrote verbatim, the name 'sound' is just to give an example. Here is an example of a desc.txt file that has been edited to have sound:
(The red part is the sound line)
Quote:
# 540 wide, 960 tall 10 frames per second
540 960 10
# p means we're defining a part
# first number is repeat count, 0 means infinite
# second number is delay in frames before performing the next part
# so if you are playing 15 frames a second 15 would be... one second
# string defines the directory to load files from
# files will be loaded in order but names don't matter
# s defines a sound for a part
# sounds will be loaded from /system/media
# oggs with loop points will loop automatically
# only one sound will play at a time
# timing is driven by the part, not the sounds
# if you want no sound, leave blank
# droid
p 1 0 01_droid
s Fusion.ogg
# fusion
p 1 0 02_fusion
# mobility
p 1 0 03_mobility
# loop
p 0 0 04_loop
Notice the name of the sound in the desc.txt file is the same as the one I want to use. I hate to sound like I'm trying to make you feel stupid, which I am most definitely not, I just want to make sure this is detailed enough for anyone to follow.
4. Continued:
Once you have commented in the sound line, and you can add as many as you want just make sure you read the guidelines in the example desc.txt file above, save the file and exit your editor.
5. Open 7Zip and find the extracted boot animation files again with the edited desc.txt file. Make sure that the only files showing up in 7Zip are the boot animation files you extracted including the original desc.txt file that was edited and only that edited one, not the backup if you made one. In the menu bar on the 7Zip program click on "edit" and click on "select all" in the drop down menu that pops up. Next click "file" in the menu bar, move your cursor to the 7Zip option and when the drop down menu pops up click on "add to archive..." Then when the window pops up just change the name to whatever you want, select "zip" in the Archive format drop down menu, select "store" in the compression level drop down menu (you must select store or the boot animation .zip file you are creating will be compressed and as I mentioned above it won't work with compression) and then click "OK" to create the .zip file. Once it is created go ahead and move it onto the root of your sd card.
6. Unplug your phone from your computer and once the sd card is mounted open up absolute system. Go to boot animations and press menu and selct "boot animation editor." Press menu again and select "import from sd card." Find the boot animation you edited and slect it. Pres menu once it brings up the window with all the .png images and select "import" and when the window pops up prompting you to name the bootanimatiom just name it however you want and select "import." In order for the boot animation you edited to show up in your list of downloaded boot animations in absolute system you must first close absolute system and reopen it, go into boot animation editor again and it should be there. Select your edited boot animation and when it opens up the window with all the .png images press menu and select "desc.txt editor" which will open up the desc.txt file in absolute systems own editor. Scroll down untill you see the "s" line you commented in and press on it, this will open up a small window prompting you to choose the file from either /data/local or /system/media. Selct to choos from /system/media and there will be a list of .ogg files to choose from (if there are more than one you put in there). Select which one you want to play for that line. This is just to make sure the bootanimation.zip is using the right .ogg file and so your phone knows where to play it from on boot. You can change these if you want but you cannot comment lines in or out using absolute system. Once you have finished making changes or confirming the sound files press menu and select "save changes." Once it's done saving the changes press back.
NOTE: THIS NEXT PART IS VERY IMPORTANT AND MUST BE DONE EXACTLY AS I HAVE WRITTEN, IN THE EXACT SAME SEQUENCE I AM GIVING YOU.
7.Sorry for yelling hehe. Once absolute system is done saving the desc.txt file and you have pressed back to re-enter the .png images window in absolute system press home and open up root explorer. In root explorer go to /system/media where you placed your .ogg files and move them again into /system/media/audio/notifications and press home key again. Open absolute system and install the boot animation to /data/local by selecting change install location and selecting "/data/local" and reboot your phone. If the sound does not play, which it should, install the boot animation in BOTH /data/local AND /system/media using absolute system.
You should now have sound along with your boot animation. I hope you all have fun adding crazy sounds to your boot animations. The thanks button is always happy when you press it!

For some reason when i try and use bootanimation editor with absolute system, it force closes and unroots my phone so, I gotta go to recovery and erase & restore. I've just been business ES for a explorer cause it does everything I need it to, I think but as far as 7-zip & store on a PC and put it back on card, I got that down.
Did you get it working? I know you don't have to use the programs they are requesting as I used what works for me so you can do the same. I will however say the boot sound annoyed me so In the end I removed it.

Naw. Never got it. I love music. I have 50,000 songs on a hard drive and I like to theme my phones to a certain artist, including splash and boot. I've got two AHD and was gonna do 2 different ones but, without the sound.....

The P means we're defining a part
S defines a sound for a part.
So, what you have there is a boot logo with no sound.
I wish I could help you further, but you need to read the tutorial and post your issue if any and I'll help...
Let me give you a tip 4.11 stock rom's boot logo comes with sound so all I did was edit it with a new boot logo and my own sound. I guess this might be lazy, but it was fast and simple and I ended up dumping the sound about a week later. Annoying!

Hellboy, if you want you could upload your failed boot animation and I'll fix it for you. Sound good? Oh and for your other question this works for all rooted ROMs.

I did all that and still no sound AND blank screen during part1. I was just using a 2 part bootanimation.

OK, I'm using OSE ROM now and I did everything except for using absolute system. Mine goes
p 0 0 part0
s att_pu.ogg
att_pu.ogg is what I named my sound and both bootanimation.zip & att_pu.ogg are in /system/media/. Still no sound.

bootanimation.zip with music?

i see how to get music when flashing a bootanimation zip with qmg and binary files, but if i want to just manually add a bootanimation.zip file (part0, part1, etc. + desc.txt) to the system/media folder, how do i get music to play on boot? any help would be appreciated!

The way that you are asking this question is very confusing as first of all bootanimation.zip files are different than qmg files as there are no "part0", "part1", these qmg files are proprietary to Samsung devices only, see what I mean from my collection. Not to make matters more confusing than they really need to be. To get a music file to play aside a bootanimation, this file is often converted to an .ogg file often runs under the file name PowerOn.ogg depending on the device, the system/media/audio/ui name bootanimation sound, there can also be a shutdown sound either named PowerOff.ogg or Shutdown.ogg again this varies depending on the device. Often the most challenging part working with sound files is timing getting the Sound file to start and finish the same time as the bootanimation, and to get the two files to work consistently together time and time again. GL.
from what i understand you can alter your boot animation by either changing the omg files or by adding a bootanimation.zip file (part0, desc.txt, etc.) - and this can be done by manually adding the omg files or zip to a specific folder(s) or by flashing a zip (that contains the omg files or the bootanimation.zip along with with binary files) via recovery. my question is if i choose to go the manual bootanimation.zip route (part0, desc.txt, etc.), i.e. adding the bootanimation.zip it to the system/media folder, how do i get audio to work at boot? and how do i get a shutdown animation to work? it's pretty easy to get audio, boot animation and shutdown animation to work using omg files, but how do you accomplish this using the manual bootanimation.zip method?

[Guide] How to extract bootanimation.zip from apk (CM theme engine)

​
Hello People,
Today i am going to show you how to extract bootanimation.zip from apk. So lets begin,
You would want to apply custom boot animation like the CM theme engine but as the animations in cyanogenmod are in apk format, you cannnot apply them on other Roms. But now don't worry now i have got a way to apply them to non-cyanogenmod devices.
Requirements :
Boot animation apk. I will use the one given below.
File explorer (I would use Es file explorer)
Steps :
Navigate to the downloaded apk and long press it.
Under the 3 dot menu select extract to and extract the apk.*
Now you will find the bootanimatio.zip file in assets folder.*
Now*go to the root folder and navigate through system>media.**Once there locate your current bootanimation.zip file
Long-press your current bootanimation.zip file, and click copy, as we'll want to have a backup just in case. Paste it wherever convenient for you OR simply change the extension from .zip to .bak
Once your new bootanimation.zip has been selected for moving, navigate back to system > media and paste it there. You'll have to overwrite your current animation zip, but that's fine since you have a backup in case something goes wrong. Go for it.
For many of you, the previous step will be the last step. But, if for any reason you're still stuck with you old animation, you can try aligning the permissions of your newly-copied bootanimation.zip file with the permissions in the system/media folder. In our case, those were rw-r-r. Just long-press your new bootanimation.zip file and click Permissions and change them until they fit. The logic behind these abbreviations goes like this: Owner - Group - Other. Read for 'r', Write for 'w', and Execute for 'x'. Save the changes and restart...
Done, Show this awesome boot animation to your friends.*
Note :
You are choosing to make these modifications, and dont point the finger at me for messing up your device.

#Steps to change or add boot audio or shutdown audio.
-To change:
1.Make your boot audio and convert it into .wav format, same as shutdown audio.
2.Copy it to your phone.
3.Install Root browser, give root permissions, go to '\'root directory and at the top bar, you will see set r/w, press it. Go to \system\media
folder and long press on boot.wav and tap on permissions, note down them, do same with shutdown.wav .(they both probably will be same)
4.Go to \system\media folder and if you find boot.wav or shutdown.wav or similar, delete it, copy your boot audio or shutdown audio.
5.Rename your boot audio as boot.wav or shutdown audio as shutdown.wav.(the extension '.wav' is same all across, no need to rename it while
renaming)
6.Long press on your new boot.wav or shutdown.wav and set the permissions which we noted before.
-To add(if not present):
1.Don't replace now, just copy the boot audio or shutdown audio and rename as above and change permissions to 0644.
Reboot and enjoy!
