Custom transition animations

dont know if this has been up, but i just last night was going through som forums and got the knowledge of that u can use custom animation transitions,
i couldnt realy find anything that was cool but i searched around anyways.
got a hold of this site
http://androidforums.com/droid-x-all-things-root/226604-how-mod-custom-transition-animations.html
where u can watch vids of some transitions.. and at the bottom u can download them.
i just downloaded the gingerbread theme i use and made copys of it
and open those in winrar and put the anim folder in the rar files in the res folder of the files and used CWM to apply those.. and all of the transitions seems to work on my galaxy s. i use the "Fly In and Flip Mix (from Fab's Apex)" on my phone right now and it rocks with darkys 5.2 rom, no lags or anything.. rly awesome.
so yeah thought it would be cool for people that do custom themes and roms and such to have som cool transitions

pull framework-res.apk from your phone, open it in winrar, put the anim folder from the rar files u download into the res folder in the framework-res.apk or if its just files in the rar put those in res/anim then push the framework-res.apk back and resrat your phone

Just created one for RSJP5. Need a deodexed rom based on RSJP5.
Fold effect + custom icon
pls make a nandroid backup before flashing. Install via CWM.
After this clear Dalvik cache and reboot

Nice !! gonna be very usefull

Tried on JPU?
Anyone tried this for DOC XXJPU UltraSlim V3.0.1?
Tried it but no success so far. It boots but gets black and vibrates ever so often. Guess they might be ROM Specific? ( I added a lot of extra stuff so I just want to verify if it might be the animation)
Edit: Still error even without the animation so i probably FUBAR somewhere else.

i copy the framework-res with root explorer and apply the files the just copy it back and restart and it should work.
but how i also did was taking the captivate gingerbread theme wich works on my i9000 an add the animations in the theme framework before i apply it through CWM recovery

i use it with the darkys gingebread jpu rom and it works great for me.
perhaps u did something wrong?
as far as i got it those animations should work with any 2.2 rom for any phone if u make it right.

I moved the framework-res.apk to sd-card so that i could connect phone to compter and and complete the process but once i moved the apk to sd card, i started getting force closes and eventually the screen went black (im not using a custom rom)
Should i have copied it instead of moving?
Im about to flash JPA with odin unless there's a fix?

ofcours u should have copied it since its a file for all the resources in your rom!
u can use adb to put the framework-res back again just do some google-foo
try out "how to adb framework-res" or something. should work.

How to install custom boot animations on Samsung Epic?

Ok I've been trying to change my stock boot animation to the honeycomb but having no luck at all. I used root explorer to put the bootanimation.zip in the path system/media . I noticed on the other devices its data/local . Also I notice that when I'm in system/media it says bootani.qmg not bootanimation.zip. so I changed the zip to look exactly like the bootani.qmg still didn't work. So could someone please tell me what to do or point me in a direction that will help me? Also I'm running stock eb13 froyo and I'm rooted.
Thanks in advance

I don't know why no one has answered you yet, but you cannot replace the boot animation on stock samsung with a boot.zip. Stock Samsung uses a QMG file for the boot animation, to use a zip to replace the boot animation you must be on a custom kernel or ROM.

This. You need a custom kernel that supports custom bootanimation. Then you can change the bootanimation.zip provided in that kernel with the one you have.

On a custom kernel that can support it, you just delete the old bootanimation.zip and copy a new one that is compatible in your rom/kernel, correct?

I am using ACS frozenRom 1.1.1 and wanted to use the awesome boot animation from midnight byor. I was able to simply copy the bootanimation.zip from system/media inside the midnight rom zip and overwrite the one on the phone in the same directory. After I rebooted I got google framework force close errors, so I cleared the google framework data, as well as contact data to be sure, rebooted and everything is groovy.
Now, naturally the second question would be, how do I change the shutdown animation?
Thanks
:EDIT: And here's the answer for shutdown animations: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829529

How can i find out if a dev is working on a boot animation modable kernel for the epic touch?

Ask in the E4GT section for one...

Wouldnt it be like any other phone , root explorer , system , media, then change bootanimation.zip with the one u wan ?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App

If they are talking about the boot animation than ya it is that simple. If you want to change that first screen that comes up before the boot animation, i am not sure how with this phone.

it is not really that simple ... Samsung uses compiled .qmg files for the boot animations.
If you have a custom kernel that supports bootanimation.zip then it should be the same as any other ROM ..

[Q] ROM Malice Boot animation

Hey guys, I flashed the new Malice Rom (3/20/12), and I was wondering how I can switch the zombie boot animation. I know where to put the zip file, (/system/media) Somehow I cannot seem to get other ones to work. I made sure the replacement files mirror the original. Do I need to flash the entire file as opposed to just replacing the files using root explorer? Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I renamed it to bootanimation.zip, etc.

Copy and then Change permision file in root explorer rw-r-r

Ok, maybe it cause your custom boot animation not valid..
Send from Brightside Room

Well, I tried a couple other ones, and no dice. Could it be that the rom itself only allows that one(or none)?

Download rom toolbox and get the boot animations from there. By far the easiest way.

HELP! System ui has stopped working s3 i747

Hey guys, i tried flashing a theme which was the circular battery percentage w/15 toggles last night, via cwm and when i rebooted after flashing it took longer than usual and when it finally booted i got a pop up saying " unfortunately system ui has stopped working" how do I fix it? i didnt have any backup (yes I know im a genius), now, i was wondering, does any of you guys have the stock system ui files to flash it via cwm?

here is the h9 one

thanks, man but when i try and install it it tells me that the app was not installed

you dont intall it rename your old systemui.apk to systemui.bak and place the new one in the same spot it should be system/app then reboot your phone and it should work or you can reflash your rom with out wipe and that will fix it too

Use an app called root explorer or ef file explorer push the systemui.apk in system/app, set the permissions and then reboot your phone.

thanks for the answers guys, sorry for being such a noob, but where can i find the systemui.apk file? in order to replace it

in the folder system/app

is there any tweak i must know of in order to replace/rename the file systemui.apk it doesn't let me do anything because it's a read only file
and does it matter if mine is a telus i747m?

what app are you using to do this

root explorer, with superuser permissions

ok when your in the folder where systemui is click mount r/w at the top of the screen then you can rename it

thanks man, you saved my life right there, now, the other question is, where did you get the systemui.apk file? and could I find it for a galaxy note i717d as well?

i pulled it from the zip in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1902178
as for the note you should be able to pull it from a stock rom in its section on these forums

Thank you
Thanks so much I was finally able to get 7.1 to work with your UI file!!:laugh::good:
