I used root explorer copied the new audio file named android_audio.mp3 to system media deleted the original file and pasted the new one in. I hope this helps you out in this.

Turn Off Boot Sound
commands for boot audio and changing boot animation:
open terminal
type 'su' then press enter
type one of the following and hit enter .. there will be no output if everything worked.
newbootsound - copies /sdcard/android_audio.mp3 as new bootsound
newbootanim - copies /sdcard/bootanimation.zip as new boot animation
bootsoundoff - turns boot sound off
bootsoundon - turns boot sound back on
If the commands don't work for you then you can use Root Explorer to perform the following:
1. Go to your System's media file (/system/media)
2. Make sure you select 'Mount System R/W' in the upper right corner.
3. Then either delete the android_audio.mp3 file or else change the file name to android_audio.mp3.bak.
4. No more boot sound
Any mp3 you put at this same location named android_audio.mp3 will be your boot sound.

I'm no adb pro, but I imagine you could pull/push the new & old files with those directories...something like "adb pull /system/media/android_audio.mp3 android_audio.mp3", then delete/overwrite that file in your sdk platform-tools folder (Windows, newer version), and do "adb push android_audio.mp3 /system/media/android_audio.mp3"
But don't quote me on that!
Thanks guys that worked. I was looking under the universal faqs thats why I couldn't find the instructions
Another way to add boot audio
Another way is to use Absolute System or Root Explorer to access system/customize/CID/default.xml and add audio under boot animation. Copy your default.xml in case you delete or mess it up. SEE ATTACHMENT for where to place in default.xml AND make sure its in the exact same place, a space over will disable the sound but won't ruin your system.

Instructions
Copy/download the animation's zip to your SD card
Open Root Explorer
Rename the file to TMUS_bootanimation.zip (Only for stock/iced glacier. Name may change for other roms.
CM 6 it should be bootanimation.zip)
Copy the animation to /system/customize/resources (don't forget to mount the resources folder as r/w before copying)
Done!
Instructions CM 7:
Copy/download the animation's zip to your SD card
Open Root Explorer
Copy the animation from your SD card to /system/media/ (don't forget to mount the media folder as r/w before copying)
Done!
Also you can use adb push as well if you place the "bootanimation" in the sdk tools folder....
command is here: adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
test animation by opening a command window and typing
adb shell
bootanimation

HOT! will definitely flash this if it is compatible..
Do you have the link to the bootanimation.zip for this. Splash is the static screen before the animation
Edit: nevermind I found it. Yes it runs on our phones, however the image is kinda small (uses about 1/3 of the screen right in the middle) and would need to be resized to look right.
Great post a link if we get this set up. Anyone care to pm me the process of changing the bootscreen?

Hello Y'all!
I've created a bios-like boot animation for our wildfire:
The idea came from frysee (original thread here), but I've build all the files myself.
There are two way's to put it on your phone:
With the use of ADB:
1. place the attached bootanimation.zip in the tools folder of adb
2. open the command prompt and cd to the tools folder
3. type "adb shell" and press enter
4. type "mv <path-to-bootanimation>/bootanimation.zip <path-to-bootanimation>/bootanimation.old" and press enter
for example: mv system/media/bootanimation.zip system/media/bootanimation.old
-> now you have a backup of your original boot animation
5. exit
6. type "adb push bootanimation <path-to-bootanimation>" and press enter
for example: adb push bootanimation system/media
7. type "adb shell bootanimation" and unlock your screen. You should see the new bootanimation. Press ctrl+c to stop.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
New to adb -> link!
You can also replace your bootanimation by using a root explorer:
frysee said:
store on root of SD card
open root explorer make sure to make R/W
go to SDCard and copy file
navigate to bootanimation path (*)
rename bootanimation.zip to something else (bootanimation1.zip)
paste file and rename bios_bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip, if necessary
exit root explorer
reboot phone
Profit = Enjoy Bios boot animation!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What is the right path to you bootanimation?
frysee said:
The right path for your bootanimation differs between devices and even ROMs, so it is hard to list the right one for every setup.
However, you should be able to track down the right one by looking for an existing bootanimation.zip using Root Explorer or ADB.
Most likely it will be one of the following:
/system/media (try this first)
/system/customize (some Evo ROMS seem to use this one)
/data/local (should work an nearly all ROMs, as long as there is no bootanimation on /system)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I can only tell that on cyanogenmod 7, the boot animation is indeed stored in system/media.
When you are on a stock rooted Froyo ROM, you can folow the explanation of laraz (thank you for this, laraz!):
laraz said:

open root explorer make sure to make R/W
go to SDCard and copy file hold down on file you wont and choese copy
navigate to bootanimation path (#)froyo system>customize>rescource- paste over exsting bootanimation.zip done
rename bootanimation.zip to something else (bios_bootanimation.zip)
exit root explorer
reboot phone
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The speed of the animation is adapted to my phone: normaly I can only see it untill "activation root access SUCCEEDED", then I can enter my pin.
To adapt the speed of the animation to your phone/ROM, you can change the frames per second:
1. extract bootanimation.zip in the attachment
2. open desc.txt in notepath or similar program.
3. you see the folowing
Code:
240 320 4p 1 0 androidp 0 0 part1
the third number (in this case "4") is the frames per second.
4. adapt ONLY the third number to the desired amount of frames and save the file.
5. put android, part1 and desc.txt again in a zip-file. Make sure that YOU DO NOT USE ANY COMPRESION or it will not work!!!! (in WinRAR: use "compresion method: store")!!
6. Now you can try your new bootanimation!

I have created a bootanimation of this video by LSU from the 1:01 minute mark until the 1:16 minute mark with a few changes made in there. It works as it should on the computer with this bootanimation previewer.
If anyone can try it out and let me know if it works for them that would be awesome. Or If anyone can take a look and tell me if I did something wrong that would be great too.
The file is roughly about 11MB
Thanks!
Also make sure you do nandroid just in case. Although if it doesn't work you just will see a blank screen when it boots up.
Installation should work as follows:
Root Explorer method:
1. Rename your boot animation to bootanimation
2. Put it on your SD card
3. Open Root Explorer and copy bootanimation.zip to /system/media. This will replace the existing boot animation
4. Reboot your phone
ADB method:
1. Make sure you have downloaded android sdk
2. Put android sdk in C:\
3. Set the directory of command prompt to C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools. Click here for a video tutorial.
4. Rename your boot animation to bootanimation and put it in C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
5. Open cmd
6. Type in order:
-adb remount
-adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
-adb reboot
ok you had a few problems.
1) you had the desc files named Part 1 and it should be Part1(no space)=fixed
2)you needed to remove the boarder from the images=fixed
3)i resized the images and turned the last 3 in jpegs and in one copy turned all images 180 degrees(landscape) which in turn made the whole file smaller(your 10.92mb --mine 6.58mb
4)i made them flashable and added the LSU fight song(remix)
not trying to take over your bootanimations just easier to fix and then let you see the changes.
I greatly appreciate it. Very new at it, and just trying to see what I can do. Thanks again!
no problem.
just rip one open to see the changes i made to them and you can use one as a template to help on your next one.

Is there any way to port this to the Galaxy Nexus. I tried the zip but it did not work. If it matters I'm running AOKP 20.
Never mind. Figured out myself. Just used working zip and put your boot animation in it.
I'll see what I can do. I'm sure it's just a resizing issue along with the proper paths. The zip is for the sense paths not AOSP paths.
If not I'm sure dased can assist.
hey there,
i took the file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1297084, converted the resolution of the images and adapted the desc.txt and packed it again.
i'm using the ROM Devil_2.3.7 and just put it to /data/local/ using adb, it works without problems for me.
i hope you like my first post in this forum

The way I did it was (NOTE:Only applies to ROM's based off CM7.1 as far as I know) place the bootanimation.zip file onto SD Card. Download a Root File Explorer like Root Browser from Google Play. Navigate to the file on the SD Card and copy it. Now navigate to /system/media and backup(if you want) the existing bootanimation.zip or you can go straight ahead and just delete it. Now paste the bootanimation.zip you copied from the SD Card and you should be all good to go
When I'm able to(because I'm still new here) I hope to write up a proper guide on how to do this

On rooted S-ON legends you can do it only in recovery mode with adb and r4-legend-recovery tools.
boot into recovery mode, after launching recovery-windows.bat (if you use windows of course) from r4-legend mount /system then push the bootanimation.zip into /system/media
I'm trying to apply this animation but I can't remove/copy for back up the old one.
I have root browser and superuser gives it root rights but I cant modify permission to the file or move it.
Any suggestion?

I'm pretty sure it takes an mp3 file? Just put your mp3 file at /system/media/ and name it "boot_audio.mp3"
The instructions are repeated under Rom Control > General UI (they're greyed out under "disable call volume")

Well I thought I had it but when I was checking my failed work I noticed that my" boot_audio.mp3" is now a " boot_audio.mp3.ogg". I used Ghost Commander to move the file.
Just to clarify it isn't or is the system/media from the ROMs zip itself?
Thanks again, this battle is now a personal challenge, lol.
Ok, this is what you do.
1. Find an mp3 file you like (MP3 file, not an Ogg Vorbis file)
2. Name it "boot_audio.mp3" (case-sensitive)
3. Copy it into /system/media/ on your actual phone (NOT in the ROM zip unless you want to have to reflash your zip)
4. Change the permissions of the file to rw-r--r--.
5. Go to Settings > ROM Control > General UI and make sure that "Disable Boot Audio" is UNCHECKED
6. Reboot.

I think the boot sound volume fix is already been applyed,the best fix is in the build prop: persist.sys.boot_volume=100. that's the loudest i, think it can get until the AOKPs find a way to increase it some other way. But as far as my understanding of this its a temporary hit and miss kinda deal. I maybe wrong here,if I am I'm sorry for the missleading post and will remove and or edit with correct info...(if needed but I think I'm right...lol..lol )

Not on the phone. You would have to load that mp3 into an audio editing program on a computer and increase the volume of the file itself.
HI, I'm also looking into increasing my boot audio volume I took a look at the build prop. But I can't find this line (persist.sys.boot_volume=100) anywhere do I just edit the file and write it into there? I'm running AOKP 7.3 also.
