stock miui kernal

where can i download the stock miui kernal?

I think the stock miui kernel is a cm7 kernel. So kernel manager would be your best bet with that

I tried it and it said its missing the flash_image binary

You can always download a MIUI rom, then open the zip, locate the kernel zip, extract then flash it.

i opened up the rom and i only found one zip that i think would be the kernal, its called "cmu6plus". would this be it?

What folder did you find it in, because I've never flashed MIUI, so I don't know what they called it. Did you open that one and see the contents of it?

That might be of help; its not pretty extracting a kernel baked into a rom.

Bootanimations:

But you:
Download file
Move file to folder
Replace old with new
Set permmissions to rw--r--r--

Yes, that's correct. name your bootanimation to bootanimation[.zip extension] to overwrite the existing one. reboot, and you're done.

Hey sexy (couldn't put that at the end of your name? Lol) what rox said is where your gonna find the bootanimation.zip for CM7 so go there replace the old with the new and long touch the file after you replace it and look for permissions in the pop up and set them to rw--r--r--

[REQ] Nexus 4 boot logo

Hi
Does anybody have a CWM flashable Zip for the Nexus4 Boot Logo.
Just flashed a ROM & I have the boring old "Android" on startup.
I'd like to have the glowing Nexus "X" logo back again
Thanks.:good:

I'd just download a ROM with it and extract it. However, you might like this. Don't remember where i found it but it matches the nexus perfectly.

Here's a better idea of what you're looking at.

you mean boot animation

I use the bootanimation provided above and like it. Works on my Galaxy Nexus also.

Here's the link for the original X from the Nexus One. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402764 I actually prefer this over the new X.

Tried flashing this in CWM and nothing changed...

What he said. Unless the person who posted it says its a flashable bootanimation.
To verify, open up the zip file. If it's a bunch of folders named /part0/ /part1/ etc then its not flashable.
Flashable: has a folder to /data/... or /system/media
chances are they're not flashable. but open to check.

Same here,
after I tried to get a custom boot animation it only shows the default "android" logo on boot.
I messed with the premissions in /styem/media/ can I revert that ?

+1 for the idea of a flashable version - specifically one compatible with Cyanogenmod
I have been running nightlies via CyanDelta and would LOVE to have a bootanimation zip that I could plop in the auto-install script to bring back the stock Nexus 'x' boot. Sadly every flashable bootanimation for the original nexus logo I have tried seems to install the files in the wrong location for CM.

store the bootanimation in /data/local/
after flashing a new nightly or whatever, it will keep your bootanimation. only way for it to reset is if you do a factory reset. enjoy.
(worked on my galaxy nexus, not sure if it works on N4 but it should, try it, shouldnt harm you.. pretty positive that its the same on N4)
edit: the bootanimation i linked earlier is a cwm flashable one. to manually do it just extract bootanimation.zip from the zip file downloaded.

Thanks for the tip! Just tried the manual push to /data/local but no joy. Upon boot it was blank, and the nightly flash restored the CM default in any event. Might be a permissions issue - should 644 and be owned by system, correct?

Does anyone have a method to change the boot logo i.e. the Google logo?
I'm looking to personalise it.

You're welcome.
Its a flashable zip too. Worked on my AOKP ROM back in the day, along with cyanogen.
Just read that threads OP. He himself extracted it from his G Nex, so it *TECHNICALLY SPEAKING* is safe to flash on our phones. But still, remember to have a nandroid for any *just in case* moment.

used to be able to do this on my Droid 1 and loved messing with it. It's not part of the kernel so it must be boot loader... do we have any way of tearing that down? I'm assuming we'd have to be unlocked... ha. Would love it if someone more knowledgeable would chime in.... thanks.

Device not booting after first ROM flash

Hi guys, I am very new to this community and this is my first post. So this is what happened:
I had my One X for about 4 months now, and I was starting to want something new so I rooted it and unlocked the bootloader everything went just fine. So I realized root isn't the only big thing you can do to tweak your device so I wanted to flash a custom ROM. I wanted to customize it so I used this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1611349 to customize CMOD 10 based on Jelly Bean and flash it to my device. So I finished my custom ROM and wanted to flash it to my device. So I used this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069904 (post 2 only (of course)).
At first when I tried to flash my custom ROM I didn't make any backup because I had Titanium backup and I thought that it does the same thing as recovery backup (now I know it doesn't) so I don't have the stock ROM on backup. I was disappointed that the device won't boot, it only shows the boot screen "HTC quietly brilliant". And then I saw boot.img I didn't knew what to do with it so I read about it and found out that I need to flash the boot.img before I flash the ROM. So I deleted everything again and done it all over again, but I flashed boot.img that came with the CM 10 first and then flashed the ROM itself. I've done everything correctly and my device still won't boot. It's over 20 minutes and still showing the "HTC quietly brilliant" like before the boot.img.
What should I do and very much thanks for the helpers I don't want to lose my device. :crying:
EDIT: I forgot to mention that this is my first android device.

Try - fastboot erase cache - while in fast boot

Clean install? Try to clear cache in recovery.
Boot to bootloader (voldown and power). On the top you should see hboot version. What is it?
Also, does fastboot say OKAY when boot.img is flashed?

And I already tried clean install a lot.

Okay matey, here's your problem:
You need a special boot.img for your newer hboot version. Check post # 9308 in CM10 thread for link.
Unfortunately GPS doesn't work with this boot.img.

LOL, just click the thanks button.
Gps will be fixed when slow-ass HTC releases the JB kernel source code. Until then, you can use Trip's CM10 or IceColdJelly 4.2.1 for working GPS.

It's not working... I clean installed my customized CM10 ROM and then the boot.img you gave me. (I tried vice versa too). It's booting and then restarting to recovery mode.

Probably something went wrong when you customized it. What exactly did you do? Why not just download it as it is?
And when you talked about github.... you mean you built it from source?

I did built it form source. I got in a folder 3 files: 2 folders: system and META-INF 3rd file is boot.img.
I probably don't know what to put in update.zip (what folders) would you tell me?
I customized some colors, battery skin on the status bar and fonts. I also customized build.prop and added adrenaline script so I got another folder named "data".
could you tell me how to pack it all to update.zip? I guess my problem is that.
P.S. I also sign it after packing it to update.zip with auto-signer using java.
THX in advance!

Here's one idea: Download the pre built zip of the rom and use it as a template. Replace all the folders inside with your own, custom ones.

I tried it this is the result... Don't you have an experience with ROM building?

Not sure if you understood correctly.
I meant you should dl the rom from get.cm and then replace the files with the ones you built and modified.
If this is exactly what you did, then I'm out of ideas.
I, in fact, haven't built a rom from source in my life.

I haven't built it from source. I downloaded the base CM10 mod and edited it's files and compressed and flashed to my device. But I am checking another option.

Why not flash the rom as it is and put your own stuff to system afterwards with adb or an file explorer ?

Need help with custom boot animitaion

I have Liquidsmooth v2.2 rom installed and I went through replacing the boot animation.zip with a different custom .zip but all it did was erase the Liquidsmooth animation and it boots first with the Samsung logo then galaxy s III logo and then its a black screen for the rest of the boot up. I'm not sure how to fix it at this point. I also flashed the samsung4u.zip using recovery...not sure if that's what messed it up but I would really appreciate some knowledge.

Your bootanimation.zip permission is wrong. It would be -rw-r--r--. then reboot

Was it even flashable ZIP file or was it meant to be copied and renamed? None of the ones I have used were flashable. As the previous person mentioned you need to correct the file permissions.

Buddy, these are Bootanimations files which are not flash able zip files. so as per OP Screen shot, permission is incorrect.

I'm fully aware that the ones that I have used (and the one I created) are not flashable however I was under the impression that they can be packaged into a flashable ZIP. I have not attempted because I just copy it and set the permissions. As far as the permissions on the OPs screenshot I was agreeing with your assessment that the permissions on the file are incorrect.

I would assume it's possible to make a CWM flashable zip but that would only seem useful after flashing a rom before you reboot

The samsung4u.zip is a Samsung animation bin file...which I realize I didn't need...but I think I just need to reflash my rom and start over...I wasnt paying the best attention to where the bootanimation.zip should be stored and whatenot before, nor did I really research how to do it. hah
