Hey I just flashed Baked Snacks 9.7 Kernel 3 and my boot sound isn't working anymore.
The audio is there in all three folders and my volume is up but it still isn't playing. Now this normally wouldn't be a big problem but I would like to add in different boot screens with different audio so if anyone could just help me diagnose the problem that would be really great.
Check in the Custom/resource/ folder and make sure the mp3 is still there at all.
Also, are you using a custom boot animation? If so, make sure the desc.txt file is properly written, because if not, it won't let sound play.
The sound is in the file and how should the desc.txt be written?
I **believe** that the way to make sure the sound is enabled in the desc.txt is by makin sure that it ends with the animation folder's name and not numbers or anything.
Also, make sure that there's a linebreak at the bottom of the writing. Just go to the end of the text and press enter once, and then save it.

I'm trying to add sound to a custom boot animation that I am using. I have both the sound and the animation on my phone and in the correct folders, but the sound won't play during the boot animation. After searching I think it might be because the desc. file isn't written correctly, because originally the animation had no sound. Can anyone help me?
I have confirmed the correct mp3 plays when I navigate to /system/customize/resource and when I play SPC_animation_final.mp3 the mp3 I want plays.
Can anyone help?
Going through trial and error wondering why i cant find boot animations zip or folder on the system partition of my epic, i realized they are now using a .qmg file for the shutdown and boot animation.
i know as of right now no one has been able to get there hands on qurans software i know that. but i know to shut down the phone android uses a shutdown apk that has a butch of scripts to close all the apps and clear the memory and whatever else, but there has to be in that apk a script to run the shutdown animation.
is there an boot apk somewhere in the kernal too? would that be to edit the scripts to have it execute pictures instead of qmg?
and am i assuming anything here? cuz am really just THINKING i know what its does cuz it would make sense to me. lol
the real question: is it possible to edit that apk and have it execute all of the pictures of a normal boot or shutdown animation instead of the .qmg file??
i can be bad at explaining things. sorry.
Here's a fun Mod for those of us who've adopted the E.T. nickname for our Epic 4G Touch!
Must Have Root to Modify!
1. Download the Wav File, copy to Device (if you DL'd to PC)
2. Using Root Explorer, navigate to System Folder, select
3. Select ETC folder (Mount as R/W)
4. Find current PowerOn.wav file and rename (in case you want the original back)
5. Move (or copy to) the new PowerOn.wav file to this location
6. Change Permissions to match (rw-r--r--)
7. Reboot and Enjoy!
►► E.T. Theme Boot Sound ◄◄
As an alternate...you can make your own by simply using any .wav file and re-naming it to PowerOn.wav! You may want to edit your .wav file however, as only a small portion of it will play during boot.
Ha!
*tries to remember what the ET theme sounded like...*
Oh yeah! How could I forget?
i put this on my phone awesome
.wave or ogg?

Edit: Included info to make your own.

This is pretty...EPIC. Sick, get my ET4G tomorrow. First mod
Does anybody have the stock wave sound? I flashed a ROM & change the boot sound & I would like to change it back
EDIT: Nevermind, I got it...
Probably semi-obvious, but you can also rename (or just delete) the sound file to have your phone boot silently.
Nice for when you have to constantly restart to alleviate the LOS error and forget to mute it beforehand, or if you just happen to not like your stuff making noise.
Sound Very Low
I changed everything over and the sound comes on, but it is very quite and short. Is this normal?
How long can it be? Seeing as this phone boots in 5 seconds
DARK SIDE!!!!
here is my contribution to the thread, they are .wav files from star wars "You don't know the power of the darkside" and "what is thy bidding...my master" ----of course from Darthvader. perfect size and length, they sound great as boot up sounds!!
don't forget to press thanks..........i don't have any lol
does it have to be a .wav file or can you throw an MPEG 4 file on there too?
Never mind. figured it out... and yes you can put any song as long as you change the permissions too.
Not sure if anyone know's how but I figured out how to basically put any 8-9 second long recording or sound file to your boot animation. you can use ringdroid to edit any sound file to to 8-9 seconds and use the ringtone maker app to send it to your e mail. then put it to your desktop and so on... you get the point.
I replaced both PowerOff.ogg and PowerOn.ogg files for the sktelecom bootanimation both animations work except the shutdownanimation is muted i have checked the permission for PowerOff.ogg it is rw-r-r Owners are root:root but it doesn't matter what i do i tried renaming power off to other common names and changing capital letters from the file but it just won't play whenever i shutdown the phone. can anyone help?
are the sounds inside the bootanimation zip? if so they should be. if not then they should work if there spelled just like the original ones were with the right permissions. also, if you have your phone volume on vibrate or silent when you power off or reboot your not going to hear the animation sounds on powerdown or up.

Yeah i did all of that when i placed both files in there i copied and pasted them at the same time phone is not in vibrate or silent. it looks like the system just isn't recognizing that the file is in there or not reading it at all but it is there...
maybe try re putting them there. redownload rename replace the existing ones set permissions and reboot into recovery and format cache and dalvik then reboot. you may need to do a second reboot to hear them. other than that im not sure as i havent tried replacing them on this phone yet, havent done that since my last phone (galaxy note 2)

i managed to replicate the same problem with bootanimation PowerOn.ogg so when i reboot the phone now even that one doesn't work. it seems to be an issue with the file system itself what i did was replace the PowerOn.ogg twice then cut and paste to external sd card then place a new one in media/ui after setting permissions, group owners, checking the right name is used and rebooting i get no sound for the bootanimation also there is no way to fix this that i know of it's odd that no one has reported this since i have had this problem in many phones like in the LG P880 Nitro HD and this LG G PRO it has something to do with android that disables its ability to use that file or read or play, whatever it might be.
The only way to get your sounds back is to reflash the whole rom with LG Flash tools.
EDIT: NEVERMIND not even flashing with LGflashtools will fix the issue only the PowerOn.ogg plays when booting up not when shutting down.
Same Issue
has anyone found a solution other then what has been mentioned? because I have the exact same issue PowerOn.ogg plays PowerOff.ogg wont play, Spelled correctly, the file works if I just play it from the system but wont work when I power off att e980
I have the same problem...many many device encountering this problem...everything is perfect on my side but still lack of shutting down sound...
just can"t figure it out...double checked poweroff.ogg...the file is perfectly readable but just don"t playing...
not a big deal...but would like to find why lolll
Bump
Gotta bump because i also have the same problem same phone, and the solutions mentioned also did not solve my issue no power off sound plays, permissions and spelling are correct i tried adding the ogg to the zip and re compressing but nothing
So my phone is rooted with Magisk and TWRP, of course.
Long story short I wanted to get the Galaxy S8 fanmade boot animation for my phone. But, since I flashed an One-UI based ROM (Noble 2.3), my device uses .qmg extensions for startup and shutdown.
That's not the main problem though. I got the animation to play flawlessly when powering on and off, but only the shut down sound plays. The startup one doesn't.
Both of the .ogg files are placed properly in their location (/system/media/audio/ui) and they have -rwxr-xr-x permissions. No, setting the permissions to -rw--r--r doesn't change anything. The files are named "PowerOn.ogg" and "PowerOff.ogg". Only the shutdown file is played though, and I don't know why...
I'm pretty sure that I didn't mess with anything else besides the boot images.qmg and the .ogg files and only the poweron one is faulty. No, the audio isn't corrupted at all, it can be perfectly played.
I would just want to know how is this possible since I can't make up a reason... I uploaded a video on how my phone reboots while how i want it to reboot. I also uploaded the PowerOn.ogg file for troubleshooting
Any help is wanted, tysm for reading; if there's some confusing things I can explain again
Nevermind, I tried using a different sound and it worked flawlessly. So sorry for the time bother, seems like it was just the file... :,)
