[Q] app2sd,bootscreen for x10 mini - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

as now x10 has a root so is it possible o hav app2sd and custom bootscreens for x10 mini? original bootscreens are in folder system,etc,semc,bootslideshow.

---

...this should be easy i think. To change the boot animation, just replace the png files with edited ones. I'll try to make some other animation during the weekend.

---

ya tht would be grt if u get it successfully done please post a tutorial cause i m still doubltfull how to do it.

---

ok, so I made a quick trial, I just removed the saturation from the current animation and it works, now I have it only BW without colours.
The way how I made it is that I copied the png files from metioned folder to my PC, modified it and put it back to the device, after reboot it works. So I will try to create some new animation during the weekend (maybe some proposal draft tonight).
So this is just a confirmation that it works.
I assume that it is required to keep number of used files, that it is not possible to change it without changing some code which calls all the pics. But I think 26 frames is enough to replace the current one with some funny animation

cool! will try it also and wating for some awsm animations anything about app2sd?

I would be very happy if someone wrote a tutorial "how to move apps to sd" and posted. Teaspoon-style for newbies.

Any chance you could explain in noob talk how to install your startup screen, I don't know what program or commands to use
Edit: I tried using andexplorer to copy and paste the PNG files but I get a cannot paste error, dunno why cost phone is rooted

-first you need your device to be rooted
-download zip posted here
-extract to your SD card
-use Root Explorer to copy all the *png files from SD card to this folder:
system/etc/semc/bootslideshow
-of course you need to activate the permission to overwrite the files in the device, you can do it simply in Root Explorer, there is a button for it in top right corner (do it before you copy files to the device, otherwise it will not copy the files there)
-when done, just reboot your device and new animation should be there

Root exploreer is a paid app. You need a rooted phone, and an app called market access to see it.

You need to use the android SDK, more precise the adb. Try searching the web for a method to push and pull files from your phone and setting up the SDK on your OS.

Nice bootscreen, thanks darebak

---

can be done entirely on phone, using root explorer, I know cos I am running the bootscreen from this thread, I prefer to not use adb personally if I can avoid it, just prefer to be lazy and use apps

I thought that app 2 SD was only available on android 2.2, so untill we can flash custom rom's or Sony decide to update the OS, I don't think app2sd will happen
