[Q] Port Gingerbread Animations to CyanogenMod 7

Hey Guys,
I have been running CyanogenMod 7 on my Milestone for a while now, and I love it! But I do think it could do with a little bit more of eye candy. So I was wondering, is there anyway to port the gingerbread window animations to CyanogenMod?
I have tried a few Metamorph tricks, but wasn't successful. I also heard about an app called AnimMod which is supposed to do this, but I cant try it out as I am not allowed to buy paid apps in my country. So, I would be glad if anyone posted a link to a working procedure for changing the window animations.

All windows animations are in the framework-res.apk under the res/anim folder.
You can replace those with the GB animation files and apply again. Please note that you need to replace only those that are there in both the framework files.

Thanks for the answer.
Where can I find the gingerbread animation files? I dont have the gingerbread ROM, so would it be possible to download the files from some place.
Also, I am curious to know, why weren't these animations implemented in the CyanogenMod in the first place. I would have thought most people would appreciate the better animations of Gingerbread.
Edit: I just watched a walkthrough, and it seems that the animations in CyanogenMod are the same as those in Gingerbread. Still, it would be nice to know where I can find some new animation files

Wow I forgot that I put this together.
I named it FlyIn_FlipOut because I combined the Flying animation with the Flip Animation.
I actually spent alot of time on it pinpointing specific things which was a pain in the ass.
Anyway, it's attached.
I hope that somebody thinks that it's neat

I have attached the animation xml files for the following animation effects.
Flip
Fold
Flying
Bounce
Blur
FroyoMOD ( animations found in Luca's FroyoMOD )
All you need to do is to copy it into the folder that i mentioned in the previous post and apply it again.

Thanks Guys.
I need some more info on how to do this thing properly:
1. Where is the framework-res.apk located? I found one in the system/ framework folder but it is named as framerwork-res-mot.apk.
2. How do i change the files? and finally how do i install the apk.
In short, it would be great if you could post the steps to modify CyanogenMod to incorporate the new animations.
@zeppelinrox: Good thing you came across this post then.

Anim mod is an easy way, i use it all the time
note\ require root and busy box installed
Goodluck

Good app. Does what I wanted.
I wud still like to try out zeppelinrox's version of the animation. So could someone pls post how I could do that.

Download the theme updater flashable template zip file from here.
Download and extract the contents of the zip file provided by Zeppe to your desktop.
Your framework-res.apk is in your /system/framework folder. Using 7zip or winzip, open framework-res.apk and replace the animation files in the /res/anim folder.
Copy the framework-res.apk into the /system/framework folder of the theme updater template zip file. Copy the template zip file into openrecovery/updates folder and apply in AOR after wiping dalvik/cache.

I'm sorry
By the way, Can I get CM7 screen on and off animation work on stock rom ?????

Thanks, but you have not removed the app link.
Regarding screen on/off animation, not possible. Its a feature of GB and not easy to port to froyo.

[SCRIPT]Random Bootanimation for ics and gingerbread

original thread here i have just made a little bit changes in the packages, tested it on captivate and signed the package
what is random bootanimation:-
random bootanimation is a method of randomizing the splash animation on each boot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Things required are an ics or gingerbread rom with a kernel which support init.d, and yes patience while mobile is booting because it takes time as script will move animation to its place, tested this on my friend's galaxy s running gamerzrom(gb) and it was working
Caution:- do not use bootanimations more than 15 mb of size, as it will increase boot time too much
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
HOW It Works:-
the script runs while booting up of mobile, then it generates a random number for selecting bootanimation, the selected bootanimation is copied from /data/local/bootanimations to /data/local and Android have a preference for /data/local/bootanimation.zip to the one stored by your ROM in /system/media/
if you want to add more animations just copy the animation to /data/local/bootanimations
the name of the animation can be anything but the extension of the animation must be .zip for e.g /data/local/bootanimations/DHLALIT11.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
using single animation
love a single animation want to use that just create a file called "bootanimation.use in /data/local/bootanimations and in that file just add the name of the animation you want to use for e.g:- DHLALIT11.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Installation:-
download the package and flash it from cwm recovery
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Downloads
there are two packages
one is the script with 2 basic animations can be found here (2.25mb)
another is with 8 handpicked bootanimationscan be found here (50mb)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
want more bootanimations go to this and this or this page
will also provide a revert package soon
and if you like hit thanks button

hello Mr dhlalit11 thanks for this package it is working really cool have also added more animation will promote it on another forums for sure

hi himanshubanga thanks for testing it on gingerbread
guys now it works on gingerbread

[MOD][AROMA] Universal Rom File Customizer V5

This is a ROM FILE/MEDIA FILE CUSTOMIZER
This has been tested working with the Jan 08 build of AOKP and Latest EuroSkank CM10.1 Builds I used fireb33 stock build for the basis of the stock zip
THIS MOD WILL WORK FOR ANY DEVICE
as it is ROM dependent not DEVICE dependent
AROMA ROM FILE CUSTOMIZER V5(AOKP & CM10.1 & Stock)
V5 - fixed when you skip the rom debloat error and fixed MusicFX app deletion
This mod will allow you to
-remove ANY or ALL commonly removed system apps from your rom
-remove ANY or ALL Alarms, Ringtones sounds, and Notification Sounds!
-remove all live wallpapers (Located in the System app removal section)
-insert whatever sound media file you wish to be inserted into the relevant locations of the rom (Notifications, Alarms or Ringtones)
-Add your own bootanimation zip into the rom by deleting the old bootanimation.zip and inserting your custom bootanimation.zip
-Remove unused Text to Speech languages that you dont require
-Remove the sample videos
-Add system apps and fix their permissions
-Ability to add user apps and fix their permissions
HOW TO USE THE ROM CUSTOMIZER
If you want to add a particular media file (Notification, Ringtone, Alarm Sound) or Bootanimation to your ROM
- Open ROM CUSTOMIZER in winzip/winrar
- Place your particular sound media file (mp3,ogg, etc) into the relevant folder in the zip
- Place your particular bootanimation zip into the bootanimation folder
- Place your particular system or data app into the relevant folder
-Close the ROM CUSTOMIZER zip
-Transfer ROM CUSTOMIZER zip to your phone and reboot to recovery
Now to the Customizing part
- While in your recovery flash the file, aroma installer will begin
- Follow the aroma installer and choose the relevant boxes
- REBOOT & WIN
This mod does NOT require you to have a clean install of your ROM before using this mod IF your only inserting/deleting MEDIA or BOOTANIMATION.
However IF your are wanting to DELETE SYSTEM APPS it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that this mod is flashed after a full wipe otherwise you MOST LIKELY will get a BOOTLOOP or multiple FORCE CLOSES
For the future builds!
Fix the Blue tint in aroma
Add some more functions!
let me know how this mod goes for your
and swing me a thanks if this helps you out
ENJOY! =]
Credit to Playya for the original script that I updated to start all this stuff.. cheers mate!

I thought I'd mention SystemApp Remover for folks looking to just remove specific apps they don't need. I find it very useful in selectively debloating every time I flash a new ROM.

currently in the process of making an AOKP aroma version similar to this i imagine. that can remove various system apps, whatever ringtones, alarms, notification sounds... and if you choose it can also insert your own ringtones, alarms, notification sounds into the correct locations in the rom in one go.. currently have one simple version that will do the same as custom v0.3c except it wont let manual checking of system/notifications/alarms/ringtones as yet << mainly because I only taught myself how to work with aroma installer this morning :laugh:

Good work my friend.... Keep it up! Nexus 4 is next on my list of phones to get

AROMA ROM CUSTOMIZER V0.5 (AOKP only at this point)
This mod will allow your to remove ANY or ALL commonly removed system apps from your rom
This mod will allow you to remove ANY or ALL Alarms, Ringtones sounds (ADDING Notification sound selective removal next release as it takes forever to do lol )
This mod will allow you to remove all live wallpapers (Located in the System app removal section)
This mod has the ability for your to insert whatever sound media file you wish to be inserted into the relevant locations of the rom (Notifications, Alarms or Ringtones)
This mod also allows your to add your own bootanimation zip into the rom by deleting the old bootanimation.zip and inserting your custom bootanimation.zip

completed all 3 versions so far..

anyone who gives this a go feedback would be appreciated or ideas for future implementations!

=================== V3 ===================
Fixed up alot of code in aroma-config and updater-script to make it WAY easier to add features in the future.
Fixed the way the mod handles deleting files from the ROM to make deletions/debloating easier.
Fixed the way the mod manages pushing files to the phone for a quicker process
Fixed and added some icons
Added the ability to push system apps & fix their permissions
Added warning to let user know of their ROM choice before proceeding further
Added the ability to exit the installation on menus screen

I have a small question, the first post mentions this is ROM independent, then why are the updates for certain roms only at times.
is it because of the way they are built or something else.
I know it's a n00b question but just curious.
Great job by the way.

educate me please
thanks a lot trying

The first releases were independent as I could only make each line of code for the ring tones, alarms, notifications and system apps when I went through the rom. Then I released and started work on the next rom and so forth. Once I had finished each rom individually I then taught myself how to code for aroma. Then added each rom and had to rewrite a lot of the earlier scripts to be compatible with aroma then I took the same approach made an aroma zip for each rom then had to work out a way to merge all 3. I then managed to do that and that was my main goal to have a zip that is easy to understand, not just a script that wipes everything but gives you choice and I now have the ability to add features that will apply to all 3 rom so far without needing to worry about compiling each zip individually. Hope this explains it

Gotcha ....
droid DNA \m/ √[π]¶~™

alright im starting to lose ideas.... anyone who has tried the mod had any problems? or have any suggestions for things they would like to do easily via the recovery?

Sorry if i am in the wrong thread...
Is there anybody know this? Or is there anybody know where to ask this question?
in .zip file (for CWM) there is an updater-script file...
I want to delete some files but i dont want to write the exact names of the files... Is there any way to delete some thing like x*.* or t*.apk or talk*.* etc...
for example if i want to delete all the files which starts with "a" letter... How can i do this?
I know
delete("...");
delete_recursive("...");
commands... But i couldn't find out if there is any way to do this?
Thank you for your answers...

You cant delete stuff using wildcards as far as i know.. That would have made my mod a thousand times easier to write up lol

An updater script only has a specific set of instructions that can be run.. see here http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/introdution_to_edify
This then is also determined by the update binary (the other file in the same location as the updater-script) - for better set of instructions you should extract one of them from a rom that is made for our nexus
In theory if you set it up you may be able to set something with the ifelse command in an updater-script OR if your good with other types of code you may get what you require using an external .sh to which the updater-script only "runs" which may allow for what you want to do. however i feel personally that it will take a fair while setting up a lot of parameters, etc becasue you will need to make sure you not deleting the wrong apk or file. If you stick to the fundamentals of an updater-script you can easily achieve what you want all you need to know is the name of the apk etc.. and with base roms these apk names will not change so it shouldn't be too much of an issue
Then if you work with AROMA there is a different set of instructions for how stuff needs to be setup for the aroma side, then the updater script needs to be a bit more modified from just a stock updater-script to run from how the aroma code makes output prop files, etc
Thats about the best i got.. other than that you will have to research these other possibilities up or make them up yourself and test until they work.

[V2.7][AROMA][22-1-13] Android Boot Animation Changer [Sense and Non-Sense Support!]

AndroidBoot Animation Changer
I have just made the changing of boot animations easier for everyone!
With this small AROMA script, you won't have to copy and paste or
replace or push things anymore; no more root explorers and computers!
Instructions:
Put the bootanimation.zip of your choice into the root of the downloaded zip
(you will have to replace the one already inside) and flash it in your recovery! Its that easy!
For changing of boot animation audio (only HTC Sense supported currently), put the android_audio.mp3
of your choice into the root of the downloaded zip (you will have to replace the one already inside too)
Inside the AROMA Installer, make sure you choose the two options correctly (Phone with or without HTC Sense)
because it not only changes the theme but also determines where the boot animations is.
If you do not have a qHD device, DO NOT flash this directly without changing the bootanimation.zip inside it first. I put a
qHD HTC boot animation inside, so if your phone's screen size isn't qHD, it will look quite ugly.
Sharing policy:
You are allowed to share this ZIP and/or any part of it as long as money is not involved (e.g. selling).
If you are a boot animation maker, you are allowed to put your boot animation in this ZIP and
share it, but you will have to mention me or my brother's name (KaiJun or kaienchua971, relatively)
and/or post a link to this very page.
Download link:
In the attachments below
Changelog:
V2.7 Minor update
Added busybox into the zip. No need for busybox on your system anymore!
V2.6 Minor update
Added ability to backup boot animation sound for Sense ROMs (Requires busybox on your phone. Will fix that in the next update)
V2.5 Minor Update
Added ability to backup boot animation (option in AROMA. Requires busybox on your phone. Will fix that in the next update, after V2.6)
Added ability to replace boot animation audio for HTC Sense devices (just place android_audio.mp3 into the root of the ZIP, like the bootanimation.zip)
V2.0 Major Update
Added AROMA Installer!
Added support for non-HTC Sense devices
V1.0
Initial release
V1.0 can only be found in the HTC Sensation forums because it had only support for phones with HTC Sense
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2070304
Upcoming update: Changing of boot animation sound!
Credits:
My brother (kaienchua971) for giving me this idea
If you find this small script helpful, pressing "THANKS" at the bottom left corner or "Tip us?" at the top right corner of the post will help alot.​

Really good job, but I like putting it in the system application folder. It is better because this doesn't backup other boot animation.

'I like putting it in the system application folder." I don't get why you put it in the system application folder but nevermind,
" It is better because this doesn't backup other boot animation." I don't really understand what you mean but I edited the script to backup the boot animation onto the SD card and I'm probably uploading it a few minutes later.

Just extract the bootanimation zip of the flashable to /system/media (you need a root explorer to do that). Don't forget to create a backup of the previous bootanimation.
If you're using the dark version, rename the file to bootanimation.zip (without the "d")

That's the procedure to use the bootanimation, but I was asking for the bootlogo (the still image that appears before the bootanimation). Generally, if you unlocked your bootloader, the bootlogo becomes a warning sign, so you can replace it with a custom bootlogo.

Hi there, is there any magisk version to be flashed? Thanks! Great bootanimation.
