Custom System UI sound snafu, need help - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hey guys, I'm not sure what to do next. I recently flashed in Jedi Master 14, which I'm loving, amd decided to be ridiculous and theme the entire phone to Star Wars, or as much as possible. DD gave me a Yoda shutdown anim, and I used the in-house boot animation installer from Rom Toolbox to change my boot animation.
Which led me to my sounds. Figured I'd start off easy with the lockscreen sounds, replce the watery splooshes with saber deactivation/ignition. So I did a bit of research amd figured out how to do it.
Found the files, that was easy. Also found an app to convert my downloaded mp3s to oggs, changed them, copied out the original sounds, put the new ones in, chamged the permissions to match their neighbors, rebooted and tested. Silence. I just also tried changing ownership so both list as "root," same as the other oggs, rebooted and tested again. Still nothing.
At this point, I'm wondering about file size/length, but my digging has yet to give anything about that. Do I need those, or at least the sizes, to match the originals? Any help or advice would be awesome.
Tl; dr, I broke things help.

I get attacked by ninjas all the time. I have 2 small boys (ninjas)
You'll find the option to fix permissions in a menu someplace after you boot to recovery. In twrp it's under advanced. Not sure about cwm

Ahhh, I understand. I have the same. How old?
And thankee. I found the command, backing up first, just to be safe. If this works, I'm going to be so happy.
And on that note, Pandora just starting playing Alestorm. This is a blessed venture, I think.
Backup finished quicker than I thought. Still no dice. Any other ideas?

2 boys 5 and 6 years old.

Aaaah, nice. Ours are 6 and 2.
And I also somehow managed to break the lmt service...which I rely heavily on. So now I'm flashing in JM16 and leaving those sounds ALONE.
Yeah, right, let's see how long THAT lasts. Ill just be more vigilant with backups.

[Q] Can't seem to apply two mods at the same time... Ideas?

Got the Official Inc OTA 4.08.605.2 from WildStang, and I'm trying to install the 1% Battery Mod and the zoomyMod for my screen brightness, but they don't seem to be able to reside at the same time. I install one mod, and then when I install the other one, the first one goes away. Then I install for first one again, and the second one goes away.
I'm using CWR 5.0.2.0, and loading them one at a time, rebooting between each one.
Sorry for being such a newb, but been a while since I've done this (since my Eris early last year), but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Both mods replace the same file, framework-res.apk. if you want to use both the easiest way would be to install the zoomy mod, and then use uot kitchen to apply a battery mod your self. Or find someone willing to merge the two mods together for you.
Ah, thanks! I'll give that a try. Didn't realize it was the same package.

I thought about it but i dont really have the time. I have 2 jobs 2 kids and a wife so that takes up alot of my time. Most of the time when im on here im at my second job where i jockey a computer screen for 8 hours. If i could get my job to let me set up a pc i would work on developing but i think they would frown on that lol. They would probably fire me if they knew how much time i already spend on my phone during my shift.

Yep be careful with that. Not worth losing a job over.
What I don't understand is that these miss were listed in wildstang's thread, but nobody brought this up. Just surprising. Maybe I should be surprised at what a newb I am...
Here's a workaround. Get zip themer from the market, and have it update it's edifyness. Then tell it to build a flashable using one if the mods. Flash the zip it creates in recovery. Do the same thing for the second mod. Zip themer is basically an upgraded metamorph; much improved.

(wip) Dirty Diablo General discussion, Q&A, and request Thread

Ok some of y'all have seen the thread by diablo67 with his nandroid backup of dirty unicorn. Well we have teamed up to bring you his vision of dirty diablo. Now first off this is nothing more than a themed and tweaked version of mazdas rom so the major credit goes to him.
What you will get is a rom that looks like you just picked it up at the store. It has gapps installed along with a few extra apps loaded. When you boot up the phone you will not go through the normal first time setup of the phone it goes straight to your launcher which adw. Take a look at a few of the screenies and tell us what you think.
Peace,
Love, and

on the boot animation? black screen with android text? I know it takes awhile to load. If you can hook it to pc and do adb logcat. that will tell where or if it is actually looping or locked. I want to say the first boot took about 5-10 mins. I will also do a md5 sum on my files and compare them to goo.im to make sure it was not a bad upload.
Edit: md5sums from goo.im match what I have on my pc so uploads should be fine. I am reflashing to my phone to check it out also. You did wipe your sd-ext correct? I know most dont but with storage swap being installed that could cause an issue.

Ok I'm getting this stuff down pat but I haven't done a logcat yet.. How do I do that? And I am flashing again now... I will give it more time to load..

How to logcat
Yes 3 mins is not long enough. I just wiped my phone and installed rom it took about 6 mins to get past the boot animation. Diablo has a pretty blue animation that will be included next time. I would check your md5sums if it does not boot within 10 mins.
Ok so I let it sit for about 10 min that time still no go... I'm doing a nand back to 4 kornerz and gonna check the md5sums...
ok i am getting off for the night will check back in tomorrow and see how it came out. If anyone else has had this issue please let me know. I checked the md5sums on my sdcard just incase i mixed up the zips and those are the same also. So I am not sure what is going on honda but hang in we will get it working for you.

One thing no one has ever made is a ROM that appeals to an old Metal head like me, and I don't mean Motely Crue metal, I mean like Slayer/Rammstein/Entombed/Helloween, etc variety.
It would have to be very dark, like this:
Not the typical blue/black or red/black
I think I have a killer Icon pack for it too, that's all glass or grey, or if not, I can probably find it. Ringtones would have to be dark and heavy, like the Terminated.ogg (Attached and rar'd so it would attach)
That's a project I'd kill to help with.
Also, well over a year ago, some dude made for me a boot.ani of the old Paldium music channel promo of the trees turning into birds swooping over the ground. That was very cool. It may still be WA buried deep in the themes section

[MOD]Touch Sounds - Updated with AOKP Touch/Lock/Unlock and Blackberry Storm click

I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but after owning the GS3 and the Note 2, I've gotten awfully tired of the water drop sound when touching anything on the phone.
I changed my screen click sound to the CM10 touch sound and the soft buttons to a different sound pulled from the samsung rom (kind of a softer click). Both are much more suitable for me.
Just thought I'd make it a little easier for anyone else like me.
This is not flashable. Download zip and extract 2 files. You need to use a file manager and paste these in the /system/media/audio/ui folder, then fix the permissions and REBOOT. Good habit to back up original sounds.
Should work on any ROOTED GS3 and Note 2 stock based roms.
3-5-13 Fixed. New zip has the sounds for AOKP. This also includes AOKP Lock and Unlock sounds, as well.
3-5-13 Added Blackberry Storm Click.

Are the bootanimations for aosp roms simple zip files? Or do then have to be zipped a certain way? I editted out the little circle under the Guy Faux mask that comes with the Infamous rom and I just get black screen on boot during the animation sequence. Without the edits the Infamous animation file works fine on aosp roms. But with my edits and rezipping the files it doesn't load at all.

They are simple zip files for AOSP. Make sure your picture file names are chronological. also check the desc.txt file to ensure it matches. as well as the part0 etc folders. there honestly isn't much to them, really strange how it wont display properly. and are you re-zipping, or simply drag and dropping the edited file to the zip?

I was rezipping. I will try just dropping the files into the existing zip.
I didn't change any of the other stuff like file names or anythinng. I just took the existing jpg's and edited out the part i didn't like and resaved them as the same file names.

I wasnt doing anything more than adding a black box over top of a section of the animation I ddnt like. But I dont think that was the issue because I left some frames of the animation untouched and those didnt work either.

You should take video and make that into a boot animation!
Of course you'd never reboot your phone again....ever...
Good luck with the dentist. Do have someone take video of you leaving the office. From what Im told I was quite the entertainment for about 3 hours as the drugs wore off. I don't remember a bit of it. Though I kind of remember hitting on the nurse....

[Q] Boot animation is a black screen?!

Running an LS-970. I have a custom boot animation that I made, but when I put it in the /system/media folder, it didn't work! Just showed me a black screen. Not even the boot sound worked (it's stock). When I previewed it with Boot Animations in Rom Toolbox, it worked, but was slow. Any ideas on why it's not working? (I've already checked perms, it's read for all, write for owner, and execute for all.) Here's the link to my bootanimation: www[dot] dropbox[dot] com/s/3h7itrkzs5d6ytl/bootanimation[dot]zip (doesn't let me post links, because I'm new. D: )

Are you running stock? If you are on stock and not a custom rom, it has to be named bootanimation_sprint.zip. And the sounds have to be named PowerOn_Sprint.ogg - spelled exactly like that. The file you linked to is just bootanimation.zip which is fine for most phones but not ours. If you are on an AOSP based rom, I'm not sure why it wouldn't work. I'm getting ready to leave for work so don't have the time to test myself unfortunately. But I downloaded it and will test when I get home and let you know what happens.
EDIT: I do see that it's HUGE for a bootani. Whether it has anything to do with it or not, you may want to run a png optimization program to bring the size down on your images. My bootanimation is the video opening to Doctor Who and is half the mb size of yours but still at 1280x768 full resolution.
I am running stock, but I disabled the Sprint animation and sound by adding .bak to their files, and when I previewed that, showed the default LG logo animation and sound. I then replaced that with mine... but like I said, black screen. D:
As for a .png optimization app, where can I get that?

Hmmm, the png optimization, if you are on windows, I am not gonna be of much help. You could just google it and see what ya get. Im on linux, so its pretty much one command from the terminal.
Im currenty trying to figure it out myself, everything seems right, as soon as I get something I will let you know but Im distracted, not enough hours in the day - lol.
I run Linux on a VM.

Well you can use optipng but I just tried that and got errors on the last 20 or so pictures. Same thing happens when I tried converting them to jpgs with imagemagick and when I ran jpegoptim, it didn't optimize them at all......
They all load just fine in gimp though. I don't claim to be an expert but have made a bunch of bootanimations and honestly can't see what the problem is. Everything looks as it should, but Ive never gotten errors with those programs before. I will have more time but not until this weekend - if you don't figure anything out, let me know and I will take your images and do a bootani from scratch with them for ya. PM me or post here on Friday to remind/update me.
Sorry I wish I had an answer but it's really weird!
I originally thought that the problem was with compression... (it said to use "store" compression instead of "normal" compression on the thread), and also noticed the last few images are just black bigger resolution images (as well as the first two frames), so I'm just as confused as you are about this. Well, thanks for trying to help. And that would really help me out if you made it by scratch... I can send you the source .avi if needed. And you already have the .png sequence... thanks in advance!

No problem, I figure if I resave everything you have in gimp we will see what happens. For me, the last images, aren't black, the first ones are - the last ones are completely transparent. And yeah it has to be stored with zero compression(or stored in 7zip) but I already did that to them. Im thinking the compression or values saved into the pngs themselves are the culprit. Ill have time friday night, maybe tonight but no promises, work is kickin my a$$. lol.
Wall thanks again.

I am currently in the process. Outside of promising my 4 year old nephew we would beat the forest temple on ocarina master quest, im free all night.
No you're not. That forest temple ain't easy man. And there's the Water Temple...

Ive beaten this game and the original more times than I can count. Im 31, it's one of my favorites, been playing it since it came out all those years ago. Crushed the forest temple in 35 minutes. Im halfway through converting your images btw.
The water temple is my least favorite tho.....
Same, still have my original 64. Absolutely fantastic.

Yeah I lost my 64. But I have the emulator on my lgog and mupen64 on my linux pc which is what I was playing on tonight. Almost done - will rezip and test on my phone and see what happens. If it works, Ill upload it to my devhost for you.
Sweet, thanks.

Ok, I changed all the images to jpg which significantly cut the size down. But still got a black screen. Looked at the desc.txt file again, changed the 1 0 part to 0 0......and it worked. I don't get it because the code was right and if your phone takes longer to boot up it will loop if it's 0 0. But, it works. I uploaded it for you here. If the image resolution doesnt look as good with jpegs, you can just use your original file and change the desc.txt file and see if that works.
Thanks a lot!
