Bootanimation Question - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I have a bootanimation that is on my Galaxy Nexus, and I would like to put it on my Nexus 7. Is this possible?
Thanks

Why don't you just try it? Copy bootanimation.zip from /system/media and set the permissions to rw-r--r--.

I don't see anything wrong, just copying it in should work.

[Q] getting VideoEditor from Nexus4 onto Nexus7

Hi, don't quite understand the logic behind this, but Nexus4 comes with Video Editor, Nexus 7 doesn't
Have tried copying the APK and ODEX file from one device to the other and setting the permissions - does not work.
Have tried running a deodex thing, that pulls the framework and files and rebuilds it to a full apk - Does not work.
Is there any other way?
Thanks
EDIT: Got it working, and will happily edit videos on my Nexus7 that were taken on my Nexus4...
Attached APK is anyone wants it. Copy it to /SYSTEM/APP (using something like ES File Explorer) and set the permissions to rw-r--r--
It's from Android 4.2.1, so currently as new as it gets...
the video editor comes with the nexus 7 on aosp, and aosp based roms.

lol, i dont know, youre probably right. the 2 minutes i was on stock didnt give me a chance to fully check it out. the irony here is that i delete the video editor apk from /system/app/ after every flash
One mans treasure is another mans trash......cant say I wouldnt delete it as well.
But thanks for the effort just the same.

Worked perfect for me....
Install keyboard like normal apk & themes apk files too..
Then copy paste lines given on thread to buildprop. Also put AndroidEmoji.ttf to System/fonts (backup old one), set permission 644. Reboot!!
Beautiful LG G2 Keyboard on Samsung Galaxy S4.

How do i set the permission 644?
I did all the things but still no emoji.
I get the keyboard but can't se the emoji. blank spaces... :silly:
Edit: got root browser and changed the settings to 644. But no Emoji.
Cant see them on the phone but when i send them people can see them.
I have a solution for this. But I can't post it... odd!
My girlfriend's got an unrooted S4. Is there any possibility for her to get a newer LG Keyboard without rooting her device?
Thanks in advance

Sorry mate… don’t think so… you see, you have to get access to the system folder i order to copy and alter the files. But if you figure out a way to do that without root… then good for you mate. Good luck… :good:

[Q] Flash bootanimation

I flashed a rom on my Nexus 4 (Based off of 4.4) and I want the stock bootanimation.
Is it possible to flash the stock bootanimation on any rom?
Thanks in advance!
Yes. Get the stock bootanimation.zip and copy it to /system/media and set the right permissions

I really dont know what rom your using , AHA, and here's the information about how Bootanimation.zip can be placed in /system/media with custom roms or in or /data/local with stock roms with custom kernels as Battery Extender, Cf-root...
So, mount system (R/W) and paste bootanimation.zip in system/media/ or in in /data/local/ and set the correct permissions rw--r--r-- (if it doesn't work set rwxrwxrwx as permissions , and i hope someone willing to help you with this problem.Have a nice day.

I did that, set permissions to r/w and my old bootanimation is still showing. Suggestions? First time doing this so I am sure it's my fault.

Make sure you delete the old one and then replace it ,maybe that helps. If it doesn't I don't know what the problem is. I'm quite a noob

For me it does not work. Do I need to adjust something in it File Explorer?

Deleted old one from System/Media and put this one in there. Still didn't work. Is it working for everyone else?
EDIT: The Images in the folder are JPEG, my understanding is that bootanimation require PNG type... please someone let me know if I am wrong on this.
EDIT: Got it working... for some reason my permissions weren't sticking... switched to a new explorer app and it works now. Looks great OP.

The images are jpeg. Maybe it depends on which ROM you are using. I'm using Liquidsmooth. I did use jpeg because the file is much smaller. When i'm using PNG the bootanimation gets over 40mb's

I'm running stock ROM, and a new boot logo, plus this animation and it Works fine, delete old boot animation.zip replace and set permission.

It's working fine here. Thank you OP I'm loving it. All you guys have to do is copy and paste this new boot animation into system/media using a ROOT file explorer. It will than ask you if you want to overwrite the current one. Click yes. Then long press and hit "properties." Then change permissions to rw-r--r

Its really not hard. you just delete the orginal bootanimation in system/media folder via explorer which comes with CM11. and then past it there and change permissions to R/W ticked on O in properities. thats it just 30 secs.
Great, really really great i think i will stick with this one... Gonna check if there's a way to add sound to the animation, i think i saw (heard, to be exact) it in the past already
