I've seen the "CRT off" animation in some custom roms for the Evo3d, but does anyone know of a flashable zip or another way of adding this to my rooted Evo3d without flashing a new rom? I've looked at threads on other boards and have found zip files of the framework, but I'm not sure if it will work for the Evo3d. I don't really want to risk trying and screw up my current set up.
I'm not sure of the exact answer but you could always backup current setup. Flash. If it fails restore the backup

Yeah, I thought about that. I'll probably have to give it a try to see if it works. The only framework I could find was on droid X and Nexus S forums. From what I've read, the file is different on Sense devices and the animation is enabled through the services.jar file. I wasn't able to find the exact instructions to enable it though.
Fyi for anyone who is looking for a way to get this animation - here is the thread

So I have spent all week looking for a way to get the screen off animation (old tv style) on my Thunderbolt and came up empty handed...until today! the only thing that even remotely does what i want is an app thats called screen off and lock. This app will play the screen animation and then lock your phone. now i know that everyone is saying that the screen off ani cant be done on froyo unless you're using a senseless ROM (like CM7) but if this app can sort of do it, is there a dev that can make this app work by actually pushing the power button? Any help would be appreciated.
I would LOVE if someone could get this working on froyo too!
You See That Is An App.. It Has Nothing To Do With The System And Animations, There Is No Possible Way To Do it :\
Yea i know...It was pretty much wishful thinking but thought i would ask. Guess Im gonna have to go to CM7 to get my fix until GB comes out for the TB. The app is ok but who the hell wants to go back to there home screen every time just to see an animation
Iv been switching from CM7 to Bamf and vice versa lately for testing. And I really miss that lol. I loved showing it to everyone and theyd all be like :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i have already done a few things to the stock ROM like put the "HTC quietly rooted" boot animation and the down animation is the old tv turning off with static first then very similar to GB screen off. while that gets me the "OOOOOOOOO" that i want from people, i hate having to power cycle my phone to do it cause using swype i have to then switch to touch keyboard then back to swype. that becomes a pain in the ()()
Id pay a buck
just saying

I haven't had any luck changing the down animation....any suggestions?

**I posted the question there with some more details (I don't want to take over this thread).**
I have a down animation that's great if you want it (i explain it in the OP) if you want it let me know. Just a brief description on how to change your down animation:
Get a root explorer
Go to system/media
Paste new down animation in this folder
Done
I always recommend copying the original down animation in case you don't like the new one
The quietly rooted screen sounds fun. Any way that can be made into a flammable zip and posted?
I got it from another thread. The link is below

It's not all that special just so you know, it actually gets quite irritating after a few days... but if you want it, why dont you just use CM7 than. CM7 or any AOSP ROM is leagues better than anything Sense-based, except possibly Myn's Warm

Been a long time since I tried anything with sense. I had the n1 which I loved but just trying to give sense a try. I have cm7 which I flash to when I need an AOSP fix. Just trying to find a nice blend.

Ok thanks for the info. I knew you could change it via a root explorer, but I'm partial to using adb (which would be great if i was successful lol).
Dcnbullet, could you please upload that crt downanimation, w/ instructions on how to install it?
Thanks!

Download and move zip file into /system/media using root explorer or equivalent (change the name of the original downanimation.zip file or copy it somewhere first so you can go back to it if you want). Then change permissions to rw-r--r--
Looks awesome!
Thanks!

What does this down animation actually do? I put it in the media spot and when I turn my screen off I get nothing? I did set permissions
I was wondering if there is any way to enable boot sounds. I'm using the Community Rom provided by adrynalyne. I was previously on SuperClean and had no boot sounds and assumed it was just the ROM I was on. Now that I switched and still don't have boot sounds, I'm guessing I'm either doing something wrong or the ROM/Kernel doesn't support it. Sorry for the noob question.
I've also been missing boot sounds for the longest time. I believe is has something to do with the kernel. It would be nice to have them back though.
the file is missing, you have to put it in

It's not the missing file. For some reason, making the change from the stock boot animation to the standard android boot animation caused sounds to disappear. No one has figured out what the problem is yet though.
So I thought this boot animation was pretty cool... I did a quick port for the Atrix Screen size (540x960), and it looks good. However, it needs some sound badly.
Thought I would post it here and someone could get some sound rocking on this thing. I take no credit for this, all I did was port the screen size for our device.
Here is a video of the animation:

LOVE IT! Anything that has to do with the destruction of that stupid fruit, I'm all for - that "barber" boot animation was just too.... TAME.... for me!
Good luck on getting sound for it, that would be pretty awesome!
Nice boot animation! Thanks!

How to install?
I noticed you are on Gingerbread is this for 2.3.4? And do you copy/paste into sytem/media folder or do use unlocked CWM to flash?

Boot animations should work on any build. However, if they have sound, you have to be careful about which build it is installed on.

I have some ideas for the sound and will attempt them tomorrow. Ill post a link to the mp3 and adobe audition files in case someone else with audition wants to edit it.
Sent from my backup Atrix (Captivate lol) using XDA Premium App
Was this supposed to be placed into /system/media and renamed, or simply flashed with CWM?
I executed the former approach, and had no results.
Killer animation though. Looking forward to getting it to work.
Do u cmw flash this?

Yes, the zip is set up for CWM flashing.

There's a few other ports on lower screen rez, floating around the internet and youtube... this is as close as I got to an original source: http://dev.nsbtt.com/android/bootanimations/
I found the perfect audio file for this animation, but for some reason the audio on anything I do is cutting off really short, well before the boot up is finished. I am wondering if there is a maximum play time for audio in the notifications folder.
any news?! I love this bootanimation
Sweet

I made some nice sound fx for this video
Okay, got the desc file working, but theres a couple of issues
first off, the sound starts off a little ahead at first, then the animation catches up,
second of all about 3/4 of the way through the boot the sound gets really low for some reason, so its harder to hear, maybe once i get to my real computer I can edit the mp3 to be louder after that point, but heres the mp3 and edited desc file:
just unzip, replace the desc.txt file in the original bootanimation.zip with the one in this archive
then add the bootfx.mp3 (unzipped) to your /system/media folder via root explorer
... any way someone could put instructions as to exactly how to install this, along with the sound effects, using CWM? Kinda new to the whole thing, really....
when i flash it with cmw it says installation aborted why

You are probably on the wrong version of Tenfars CWM.
Which version are you using?
Added the audio to this boot animation:
http://www.mediafire.com/?rcy6jrlffgu5rrn
I cannot test as I am trying out CM7 pre-beta4 right now, and as far as I know CM does not support animation audio. If anyone tries it, please let the rest of us know if it works OK.
Cheers!
Is there a simple way to enable this? All the options I have seen seem to include other modifications too via replacing a framework file.
Do Samsung block it on the phone or do they take it out alltogether. I understand the reason is because of poor performance on occasion but it has always been fine on my phone...
Any ideas?

Have you seen this thread:

I don't think you'll find an easier way.
Kinda funny, because I disabled it on Cognition ROM. You can have mine.
Thanks I hadn't seen that one. Will give it a try once the 2.3.4 update goes official (unless anyone fancies doing a KG6 version...)
Brought back memories reading about how all the processes come crashing down when you change the file while the phone is running... oops...

I cant say what exactly that file does... but I can tell you that I deleted that, and many others with "htc" in the filename, and have suffered no adverse effects so far..
**edit**
If you do delete them and you're on a stock firmware, make sure you back them up just in case. If you flashed a ROM, you can always just pull them from the ROM if you need them back for whatever reason.
**edit2**
I am running a Senseless ROM, all the Sense stuff replaced with AOSP stuff... So, you may want to research it before deleting it if you use Sense.
