ROM Toolbox Pro boot animations

Has anybody used the ROM Toolbox pro to download and change boot animations? I was wondering if it works okay or if there are issues with the note 2. If there aren't any issues then I may try some of the animations it has listed. There are some cool ones their server.

The size is usually off but they will probably work!

Is there any kernel with support for custom boot yet?

I've been trying to get the ROM Toolbox pro to work for changing my boot animation but it doesn't seem to work as of yet. It says it installs fine but when I reboot it's still got AT&T's boot animation.

Hi Truth,
I haven't tried using unsecured boot.img yet. I'm a noob who just switched from the iPhone over to Droid. Loving it and SO glad I finally dumped that thing, but it's still all new to me. I saw the post from scrosler about this but have not gotten the guts to try this out just yet. Thank you for the info

ROM toolbox was acting weird saying I needed ROM manager to install. It never said that before. Anyways I downloaded some of these and flashed them in recovery. http://droidmodderx.com/galaxynexus/how-to-install-100s-of-bootanimations-for-your-galaxy-nexus
I'm on the unlocked boot.img

You need that to flash bootani's and don't be scared lol just don't be like most noobs! read before you do things or find someone you feel comfortable asking questions to and pm them till you get familiar with what things do.

can't find it to remove!
I used ROM ToolBox Lite to install a bootanimation and I can't find it to remove it and it's the wrong size and not in the usual /system/media/ "bootanimation.zip".
Does anyone know where else they hide? I don't want to go through every folder one by one. Using Android 4.0.3.
...Scratch that.. Found it in /data/local/.

You should only use the Tablet boot animations from romtoolbox and you can also preview them to see if they are the right size at least on the pro version u can

Thanks a lot man :good:, another thing, will changing this have any other impact on my device? Can/should I change it back or does it just not matter?
thanks again :good:

it SHOULDNT matter guys.....but this will block OTA's from updating and stuff, so if that is important to you.
but always make a backup of the build.prop just to be sure. once FB home is available to EVERYONE, i would change it back just to be safe....but again, it shouldn't mess with anything else. most apps are available on the Note 2, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Worked great, but I have 1 problem...Notifications don't seem to be working... anyone else with this issue?

...did that build.prop edit and after reboot rom doesn't boot, stuck at bootlogo for about 5 mins now. good thing I made a rom backup yesterday.
Tried facebook messenger first when it was updated and chat heads don't work, anyone know why ?

So far it's been alright. Sending regular sms have been hit or miss. Sometimes they send but sometimes they don't on GNEX

Changed build prop and still says device isn't supported :/ Tried changing to a GS3 as well, not luck either.
Does it matter if parts of the build prop mentions toro/tuna? Or does the rom I'm using matter?

Uninstall and reinstall FB Home. You have to have your build.prop changed prior to the installation of the FB Home app.

In some cases you have flashable zips, in others you have to move the file to system/media and change permissions. just find a flashable boot animation, back up system (optional) and flash in recovery and bam! I actually just flashed a new boot anim not even an hour ago.
Good Luck!:good:

That's the only one I liked. You can download ROM Toolbox Lite from the Play Store. There was one in there that I liked, but that's all. I guess you could go through and find something you fancy.

I had a little problem. pin code a second time after you restart the phone you want. but I figured out the problem. sim card has been corrupted.

Boot animation directory depends on the Rom, in AOSP it is in media, but on Sense it is in system/customize/resourse and called HTc_Bootup_One

the files are under system/media. you can download and put new files there, as long as they are names the same then new animations will work fine

The Sprint Boot Animations are in carrier/cust/poweroff and /poweron. If you messed with /system/media you deleted stock LG animations not Sprint.

yes you helped greatly just disabled the stock sprint animations now when i shutdown it doesnt do the lg animation which is fine because i want to get rid of them as well but the start up lg plays anyway to disable that one

rwrr are the permissions and any animations that are still playing are in system/media unless you're talking about the splash screen(the lg screen before the boot animation) in which case thats part of the kernel and not able to change.

First you need to be rooted. after that simply install "solid explorer" from playstore, and browse to source path, copy this source file, browse to destination and paste that.
i am not sure if this is still complex. no need to use adb.

I've got the Chinese AL00 too. When I enable call recorder in dialer, nothing really happened. There is no record in sounds/call recorder folder and neither in any other folder. I checked the system folder and I have app/HwCallRecorder in with correct permissions.
So, my question is: are you sure that your calls are actually recorded and if yes, where are records saved? Thanks.

On home screen pull down tab type files.hit files.hit internal storage.hit sounds.hit call record and there they are

You need turn in on under dialer settings

I have the ALOO and after every call I get a banner at the top notifying me of the recording. Recordings are accessed from the recorder app
