[Req] FF7 Theme - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know there's already a thread going for this but it got into discussion about which FF everybody liked so I decided to do this and request that any posts just be ideas that people have. I know it's not easy to make these so if somebody ever does... thank you so much in advance
My personal requests:
sephiroth walking through fire pull-down ani
The pulldown ani mentioned above
hp/mp bar battery mod/3g signal strength
ff7 fonts
the menu sounds on clicks
round materia backgrounds in the appdrawer instead of the square ones we have now
any of cloud's limit breaks as boot ani

I totally agree. And sorry for stealing you're thread. Just figured if a themer is searching around, it's better not to have to scrub through pages of banter. No offense intended.
On that, it should include the old midi files for ring tones. Like the battle song, boss song, aeriths theme, victory theme... Things like that

I think I may be able to put together an Animated boot animation of cloud during a limit break from the game or from Advent? How long does it need to be also and what phone do you have?

Got the original midis too and not the many self made spin offs out there.
Hey I wonder if it would be possible to have an animated lock screen of say, lifestream moving around?

Being that the limit breaks were never that long, I'd say the full animation from the game would be perfect.
And this is for Samsung Epic. Not CM7 (saw your signature, just making sure you're aware )

Omnislash Bootanimation FF7 (game)
Ok, so it's not quite evening yet but I managed to get one out... Because the videos in the game are usually displayed in wide screen format, it will be a little smaller than you might like in order to portray it in portrait mode (phone straight up and down). I've set the default frames per second to 30 but you can change that if you like. I'm not sure how long your boot animation lasts as there are countless variables that decide that. currently, at 30 fps, it should be about 40 seconds. I trimmed this up to get it that small and can trim it more if needed.
In the other file I'm including the sound file that syncs with the animation. It is in mp3 format and could possibly be off sync with your rom and/or settings due to either a slower or faster boot up. Thus, you may need to play with the fps to get it just right. Don't forget that THIS file needs to be extracted.
Now, as far as the animation is concerned, you will need to rename the zip file to whatever your current boot animation file is named. It varies from rom to rom, but it could be botanimation.Zip or vzw_bootanimation.zip, etc. It's going to either be located in the system/media folder, or system/customize/resource.
If you want the audio to work (and this is usually a shot in the dark getting it right) place the extracted mp3 file in the same folder you're dropping the bootanimation file in. You may need to rename it to like, android_audio or something. If most of your system's sound files are not in mp3 format, you may have to convert it to whatever audio format they are in using some sort of sound editor (good luck with that).
Let me know if you have any requests to change this animation and let me know how it works for you!
Oh one more thing.. If you don't want to lose your current botanimation forever, simply rename it to some thing else so my file won't over write it.. Don't forget to change permissions and ownership on the files after you drop them in the folder.

cant convert the .mp3 into .wav

I will do it for you tomorrow or you can do it by using the free computer program I use: Wavepad sound editor. Once installed, you can right click the mp3, click edit, and once the app opens, "save as" and you can select wav. I will upload it tomorrow if you haven't already done it. How is the bootanimation? I had to up my frames to 80 since my phone boots too fast

[REQ] Boot animation idea

I had an idea for a boot animation. You know how when you go to a movie and it starts out with the countdown in old black and white, but then the film seems to melt away revealing a modernized version of the countdown with all sorts of special effects? it is similar to this,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzTdxiixjrk&feature=youtube_gdata_player
But starts at 10 and the film melts around 7 or 6 and also seems to slow down. Does anyone know what I am talking about? Also there are some sweet sound effects.

thatd be sweet....i have no idea how to make boot animations but would easily use something like this if someone made it!
Yeah, with the sound effects as well, but instead of it saying dolby digital at the end, it could say HTC G2 or Desire Z.
That would be sick!
I vote for this, that would be so, excuse my French, Fu**ing awesome.
Ill give it a try when I get some time if no one beats me to it. Would be nice if it faded to android instead of dolby at the end. See what I can do, no promises, ive only done a few boot animations.

Umm from what I remember a boot animation is easy to make but a video needs to be made first then the boot animation
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I just plan on using mplayer in the terminal to turn the video into 100+ png files and extract the audio to mp3. Then I will crop the images to 480x800. I also plan on removing the dolbly frames at the end. I would like to incorporate an android at the end? I want to keep the sound with it. I have the audio boot animation right now, I will see how it works out. I will posy my results. Might take me about a week between work, school, and my wife and kids its hard to find spare time.
I have the animation built, I am trying to reduce the size of the png files. There are 180 files and it runs too slow at the moment. I will keep trying. I'm not very good with large batch operations, learning as I go.
+1 for this. I really like!
Try setting the framerate lower than standard video which is usually 30fps lower it to about 1/2 and see how it runs.. then export it. Open all the files in photoshop and batch process them using "save for web" as png to get the file size down

Thanks, I'll give that a shot.
So, how is it about this nice idea ?
I am having a hell of a time trying to get these png files to a size that will properly boot. My end zip is always around 71 mb. Anyone care to enlighten me on a easy way to batch modify 150 png files to a smaller size. I'm running linux mint and using grub, ffmpeg, and mplayer to try this. Maybe there is an easier way?
I would have done it on Photoshop with a batch but on linux...
Brian, it would be so sick if u got this working! I'm sorry, i can't help with anything cuz everything i read in your last few posts and others just blew my mind away! Lol! Noob here! Good luck, and a donation will definitely come your way if it works out!

[Q] who wants to help me change swype keypress sounds???

i hope someone will...
im using a glass crack keypress image for my themed swype & i have a glass crack .ogg sound file i want to use but it wont work
what i changed was the KeyPressAries.ogg found in swype.apk under assets, i found the sound file i wanted to use & changed it to .ogg renamed it to KeyPressAries, & replaced it using 7zip & all it did was lose the keypress sound...
I don't really know anything about anything lol but I have heard of things like this being sensetive to the size of the file especially something like the keyboard which may remain loaded and need to be cached. Try to get the size of the new file the same or smaller than the one you are replacing.
Again this is random speculation but it makes sense to me...

Yeah, I did a little googling for you. Try convert to mono if its not already. Beyond that I use audacity to do audio editing. I work on IVR systems and sometimes they are sensetive to bit rates and such so if you want to send me the file I can give it a shot, but if you are comfortable with audacity (free opensource sound editor) try the instructions on this forum for reducing ogg file size:

Ok, So the aries file was actually only 0.14 seconds long while the glass break was 0.94. Quite a bit longer...
aries was about 5k (4982 bytes) so I did a few things to try to hit those targets for length and file size.
glass_break_compressed.ogg is your original file, same length, with more compression. That got it down to 10k
glass_break_trimmed.ogg I actually cut content out of the file to shorten it, but it was mostly dead space and I think it still reflects the original pretty well. that got it to 8k
glass_break_trimmed_compressed.ogg is the trimmed version with extra compression, I can't tell the difference between the two on my laptop speakers, that got it to 6k.
If you can get any of the the above versions to work I would try them in that order so you get the best quality. Granted none of them are equal to or smaller than the one you are replacing in size or length, but they are down to around .24 seconds so its close on length. I couldn't get it any shorter and still have it sound nearly identical to the original.
That said... If none of those work, then this one is a little more than just trimmed (lets say chopped lol), and it includes the extra compression. Its not quite as robust as the original sound or my trimmed versions, but I think it sounds pretty good even though I had to chop out some of the meat of the audio and I got the file size down to just below the aries version.
it is called:
glass_break_chopped_compressed_5k.ogg
Thats as far as I could go and still get something resembling breaking glass. I sure hope one of them works for you! Looking forward to hearing how it goes.

P.S. I'm willing to bet its gonna be one of the last 2 lol
well......
Nothing worked... oh well i thought it was a good idea...
Edit: i think theres something else were not doing right i noticed that in 7zip the files compressed size is the same as the file size maby no compression would work but idk how to achieve that & still keep the sound the way its made to be
& also i figured out that even if i put the stock file back in i still get no buttonpress sounds......

i think it has sumthin to do with bitrate & i kno there cant be any compression. it might hafta be either mono or stereo. i kno its super specific, i got a few sound files that are downloadable on this post
Old rumor was that the file sizes had to match exactly to the kb. I don't know where I saw it and it was hard to do without getting sloppy.
Were you ever able to put the stock file back in and get it to work? I think that unless that works we won't be able to get any custom sounds in there.

That I am doing. Though I have noticed that sometimes "store" in WinRar compresses by just a few bytes. I made one that was completely not compressed (byte match for stored size versus on drive size). Still not working, so I've ruled that out as being the issue.
I'm attaching a version created by the tool in the link above. It still doesn't work. I have no clue why... still looking for hints.

That looks like it'd be a cool animation. I'll mess with it later when I get home. But at first glance comparing it to other animations I have that work, they are either greyscale or RGB jpgs @ 72dpi. Yours are indexed pngs @ 300dpi. That link says png should be ok, but it says to use RGB. Maybe you could try that next.
Here you go. I converted the images to 72dpi RGB jpgs. I'll still probably try again leaving them as 72dpi RGB pngs, but these animations work now.
I included your original 30fps version, but also slowed it down a bit. I think the 12fps looks good, but unless you have just wiped your dalvik cache, you might not have enough time to see very many blinks. The 21fps version isn't bad, but I think it's still a bit too fast. Tweak the speed to your preference.
These are not flashable, btw, so just copy over with root explorer or whatever.
Has to be renamed sanim.zip to work in GB.

Help editing APK

Hello all,
So I have really enjoyed this game GlTron ,but want to change the music of the game. I am rooted so I used ES File Explorer to get the APK off of the phone and onto my computer. I opened up the apk using 7zip and removed the .ogg song in the /res/raw folder. I then converted the song I have (Son of Flynn from the Tron movie) into an .ogg and renamed it to the same name of the song in the original apk. I dragged it from Windows Explorer into the /res/raw folder within 7zip and closed out. I put the apk on my phone and tried to install using ES File Explorer, but it failed. I then tried to install it by putting it in /system/apps and rebooting, it would install that way, but would force close right after I tried to start it.
Any ideas? If this is the wrong forum or not okay to do, please move/remove the thread. I figured the game is free and available under GPL it is okay to modify.
Thanks!
EDIT: This is where I came to my process of editing the apk

You might have to actually decompile to do this.

Alright here are the two apks, the modded one has the new song in it.
thank you everyone
Have you tried re-signing it? I think apps in /data/app need to be signed. By changing the music, you probably made the original signature invalid. There are many tools to sign apk's, but this one is easy to use.
if everything else with the procedure is ok(mainly with the signing), try to reduce the bitrate of the song cause the default is 80kbps and the modded is 256kbps
maybe it crashes for that.
I tried the resigner and the app would install, but would not launch, force closed again upon starting. I lowered the bitrate to 96kb/s and got the same thing...ideas?
EDIT: Took it down to 64 kb/s and got the same thing.
I would be happy to send a small paypal donation someones way if they could make this work
If I get some time later, I'll try to decompile, add your music ,and recompile.

Oh wow that would be amazing and most appreciated, if you have a donation link I would be more than happy to send some money your way
Thanks. All my donations go toward my 2 day old son's toy fund. I changed your sounds no problem, but the originals and the modded were all the exact same size, which leads me to believe that somewhere, the sounds you wanted got lost. I'll upload it, and if it's still wrong music, just attach the individual .ogg files and i'll compile it again.

It's extremely easy. All professional audio editors have .ogg support, so it edits just like an mp3. Give me a few minutes. And thanks for the donation-deeply appreciated.
edit:here ya go- I bumped the overall volume of each by 50%, bumped the bitrate up to 320k and added some bass rumble to the explosion file. Be sure to uninstall my old modded version first to avoid parsing errors.

Oh wow thank you so much. I meant for the song to be louder than the sound of the light cycle movement, but I am not going to ask you to do any more work. You have already done so much and I cannot be this picky with something. Just having the song is enough
No worries- I'm sitting in a hospital waiting room, and not getting any sleep with a 2 day old, so tinkering with a computer is no big deal. I put the original engine sound back in, so it should be lower than the music.

well i found this free program http://www.boxoft.com/wav-to-mp3/ so i solved the sound issue. any takers on a good walking dead boot animation?
This would definitely be awesome. Hope someone takes the challenge on.

I am a HUGE walking dead fan. I would definitely rock this if someone takes up the challenge.
Meanwhile I will be scouring youtube for something that seems bootup animation worthy

I'm a big fan of the show..I think if u can get the episode when Sofia comes out of the barn and add the a part of the theme would be killer...maybe even Daryl riding his brothers bike would be good two..check out some torrent sites for the show and edit what u need....I would help more but no comp
here is a boot animation i made and i will load the theme for the walking dead power on sound
boot animation
http://d-h.st/EEj
add to system folder then media
boot up sound
http://d-h.st/tlI
add to system folder then to etc
let me know what you think, i'm new to this and i think there ok but no where near perfect.
What's the word on compatibility? Should this work with CM9? If so I will flash and give you my opinion. I'm super stoked nonetheless, thanks for your work!

ok this is the swap method were you replace your bootanimation.zip , i used super manager from the market, then file explorer. then you copy the bootanimation from your sd card , then backup level folder then goto system folder then media, here you can add a 1 or something to the original bootanimation file then paste the new one, reboot and see what you think.......please do a backup prior to loading just incase there are any issues and you can easily go back to your original setup. message me if i can help any better or if i didnt explain it well.
OK I tryed the swap method right after I posted that last reply and well it bricked the phone sio I had to get my buddy over with his laptop cause I blue my comp up...but I would love to see this work but won't try again until I have a working comp..

i'm sorry you ran into problems , i wish someone smarter than me with this would take over this page and get us a really good walking dead theme. i know there is a interest because my downloads show tons of people downloading these files, also wish they would post comments or a interest in this project so one of the great themers would knock this one out the box!!! travismoreno cough cough

I'm interested in it, unfortunately, I don't have /system root access (using CleanGB, but for some reason, it won't let me copy the files there). Am definitely monitoring this thread.
I've been a silent observer on this thread anticipating progress. My wife already has walking dead wallpaper, ringtone, and notification sounds from Zedge. Boot animation would be awesome!

Just by looking at it on my phone I can already spot a few issues. One being the wrong pic size within the desc.txt also with the labeling. Ill whip something up in a sec using what I got here. I honestly have never heard of the walking dead or else id take up more stuff including it
EDIT: ok so the images dont show up right so i need a new gif or video of something to use as a boot animation. Im not familiar with this show so its up to you guys what you want the boot animation to show..... let me know

its all good man...I'm one of those ppl that like to be a genny pig for stuff but I'm not willing to do it as much as I'd like cause I fried my comp a few weeks ago so ya...but I hope this becomes better cause the show is great and the comic is better..I'm actually downloading both seasons on my wife's MoPho.I'd like to see what happens with this and would love to help but I'm all ideas and no knowledge on development of roms theme boot logos..
