[Q] Boot Animation Sound - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I attempted to change the boot sound. I got the animation working perfectly. But the sound is not working at all now. No sound, nothing.
The FinalThunder.mp3 has been renamed, and the original still works. But the new one doesn't. Anyone got any idea what might be wrong?
I've Checked:
Permissions
File Locations
If the file ACTUALLY has audio
it works in "android emulator"

bumping for great justice. This will not only help me, but hundreds of others who are having the same issues in the theming sections!

bumping again before sleep...come on, someone has to know this.

[Q] Help! Phone FC after calls, Missing Packages.xml

I get a FC every time I end a call while running Gingerbread Clone RC2 (this happened when I was running GB Clone Beta 2 as well.
I have tried running fix_permissions, but get an error regarding a missing Packages.xml file:
"cat: can't open '/data/system/packages.xml': No such file or directory"
I have a feeling that this is all related, but can't seem to make any headway on the problem, and have been unable to find an answer after searching here and on Eugene's site...
Any insight??
Thank you!
Okay, so I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9948250#post9948250, and was able to get fix_permissions to run. Still, though FC upon ending calls. Back to the drawing board.
Try disabling call tones under call settings.
Had this same problem a while back, and that fixed it. Don't know if that's still the case.
phew, thank you for the help. I don't know why I didn't do that before--I thought I had tried that, but apparently had not.
Much appreciated.

[Q] Cyanogenmod 7 - No animations & camara not working

Hi all,
I've just registered to the forum but I've been visiting it for quite some time. I'm afraid my problem is being discussed in a thread but so far I was not able to find it.
I'm currently running CM7 J019 K007 with no reboots. Everything seems to work perfectly except for 2 things:
1. The camera is not working (not even in VGA). When I start the camera it appears to work but when I try to take a picture the image hangs and nothing happens unless I press the home button. The same applies to video.
2. I don't see the starting animation, is just a static image. And when I put a theme, even the default ones, there is no background, just a black screen.
I've tried several things to solve this and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I've done all the standard steps:
1. Flash bb
2. Wipe everything (partition, Dalvik, etc)
3. Flash ROM
4. Flash apps
5. Reboot
But still those 2 issues continue to happen. I've also tried with J017 and J018. Got them running without an issue except those 2.
Can anyone help me get this fixed?
Btw, I've also tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=949262
but still no solution.
Thanks for the help and sorry if it was posted somewhere else.
It is known that the camera might not be working in 2.3 roms.
Thanks aR_ChRiS,
I thought that too but in the threat that discusses CM7 it says the following:
-camera (almost done - works only on low res <=VGA)
And my camara doesn't work even at those resolutions.
Regarding the other issue, I think there must be a corrupt app package in the app zip file but the strange things are that I've downloaded it several times already and that everyone else doesn't seem to have this issue.

As J told in the thread. This release is only WLOD hunting. These have dissapeared so the coming days he will work on bug fixes and dalvik craches. He made almost a super stable CM7. Actually you can call it with this release stable but not fully functional.
On my phone my camera only work on 3mgp and video only works on low30mm.

As for animations they are off by default go to settings/display/animations then choose. The daufault boot screen is supposed to be a static image, that's the way its meant to be. You can change it if you have root explorer if you put this http://db.tt/X8BJiAb in either data/local/temp or or go to system/media and cut the file bootanimation.zip and paste to your SD card and then move the downloaded one to system/media. Don't unzip the file in either way. I think J said he was hoping to get the camera working soon but can only be done after Sony releases their 2.3. Hopefully this info shall help you out

Ok then, my bad with the animations since I thought the opening screen at boot was animated as it was in 6.something.
In any case, the mayor problem was the camera. I mean, I'm ok with not having 8Mb pictures, or only with 3Mb. But I'm not able to take pictures at all.
Anyway, I decided to go back to FreeX10 until something else comes along.
Thank you all for the help though

Fuzzy sound?

so whenever i interact with the screen, the sound that goes through my headphones starts to make a cracking/fuzzy sound. most notable when im scrolling through my apps, browser.
i started noticing it a couple days ago, possibly after i installed a newer kernel.
i've tried installing different kernels/roms as well as odin'ing back to stock and the problem is still there.
any ideas? any help is appreciated thx
I have a thread about this already in this section. You might wanna read through it. It's called sound popping.
Link to thread mentioned above.
good day.

[Q] Boot Animation Sound FAIL. :(

I originally posted this in the E4GT forum, but didn't get any takers. As this is something that is extremely perplexing to me, I decided to take the impatient route and post this here as well.
Searching failed pretty badly, both here and a general Google search.
However, I am perfectly willing to admit the possibility that I wasn't searching for the correct terms.
I can pretty consistently flash new boot animations with CWM. The context of the zip was pretty easy to get a handle on. That being said, I've run into a problem with certain specific sounds being used as the boot sound.
I've renamed them with the appropriate PowerOn.wav name, but some work and some do not.
The ones that don't work show an odd behavior. The boot animation plays fine, the sound that I've selected plays normally, but then the looping part of the boot animation just loops indefinitely.
The phone itself has actually finished booting, since I can unlock it, and can navigate blindly, hearing the appropriate noises. I can power it off by guessing where the buttons are onscreen, but I can't see anything aside from the boot animation.
Changing the power on sound file fixes the problem, but doesn't give me the sound I would like to have for my boot.
The length of the file doesn't seem to matter, some shorter ones work, some longer ones work.
I'm wondering if possibly the encoding of the files may matter, but I can't seem to figure out a difference between what works and what doesn't...
I can post some examples if anyone would deem it helpful.
Thoughts?

Note 3 (CM 12.1) GPS and Startup/Shutdown Sound

Hey everyone, I’m posting this to both XDA and the CyanogenMod forums for simplicity’s sake
I recently inherited a Note 3 from my sister who just got the Note 5, so of course I promptly rooted it and flashed CM 12.1
However, I’ve had some problems that I can’t seem to find a fix for, and I’m hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
1) GPS
GPS cannot get a lock. Sometimes it will kinda work sporadically for a second or two, but it’s definitely not the fast, solid Lock that it’s supposed to be. Google Maps Navigation gets close, and I can see my route, but it doesn’t give me the solid Lock that it’s supposed to. I’ve downloaded GPS Status and re-downloaded AGPS data and done the available calibrations but that doesn’t really seem to do anything.
I found this thread regarding the GPS issue, but there seems to be a debate as to whether or not the fix suggested actually works. Haven’t tried it for myself yet but I plan to soon as I can get backups made:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/105538-have-they-fixed-gps-on-note-3-hltespr-sprint-yet/
I also found this possible solution over in the Galaxy S4 forums, but I couldn’t figure out how to edit my gps.conf file. I tried with both Astro File Manager and Terminal Emulator but I couldn’t edit the file due to permissions I’m pretty sure. I have some basic Linux knowledge but I’m not sure what the problem is. The usual “just sudo it” method doesn’t seem to work:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/108806-gps-not-fixing-with-latest-cm121/
2) Startup/Shutdown Sound
Apparently the Note 3 has a Startup and Shutdown sound. I’ve previously had an S3 and S4 and neither of them had it.
So now CyanogenMod plays my Default Notification Sounds whenever it starts up or shuts down. Which is fine, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to change the sound aside from changing my Default Notification Sound. I like to keep all my sounds different so I don’t like to have the same sound for two different functions. Does anyone know if there’s any possible way to change the Startup and Shutdown sounds?
Thanks in advance for any help!
