you can use this test zip I made to flash the bootanimation(unzip it, place the bootanimation inside system/media/ and then rezip)
you can use bootanimation factory to add the loops to the bootanimation, the rest is up to you

Thanks a lot, any idea how to wrote the .txt file? Like what I'd need I understand the part 0,1,etc. And the resolution I just don't know what else or exactly how to write. Or would it be easier to use the factory?

I I know that part 0 is the folder, 1 is usually the loops for the folder and the other number I don't remember; the resolution of the pictures is at the top, and next to it is usually the fps but I prefer to use the factory because this way it never fails

Thanks again, I was going to start making some test animations and see how it goes. Does the factory break an.gif file down into individual .PNG?

The attached zip file has 2 exe files in it. Just unzip it and copy both files to your device. It's pretty obvious from the name what each of the files does, but you need to restart your device for the changes to take effect. (Please note - this will only turn off the default windows lockscreen. If you've got a different one installed this will not affect it.)
Basically, run lockscreen_disable and restart your device. You can run lockscreen_enable at a later date if you ever need to turn the lockscreen back on.
Hope it helps mate

You can either unzip the 2 files (both exe files) and copy them to your phone, or copy the zip file to the phone and unzip it there. Either way doesn't matter.
Once unzipped, you click the exe file of your choice and it runs, but you won't see anything change till you restart your phone.
I really threw them together quickly, which is why they're so basic, but they should do the trick though
Thanks John. I've been looking for ways to disable my Exchange email policy lockscreen.
Nothing I've seen and tried works so far.
Will your exe files work to disable/enable this Lockscreen?
Cheers

[Q] LeeDrOiD 3.0.2 boot animation

I have tried to edit the boot animation using UOT kitchen on the LeeDrOiD rom since version 2.2 but have had no success!
i believe it is stored in system/customize/resources. i pick this option in UOT and the boot animation doesn't change.. i pick the option "Sense ROM" in UOT and still no change... any ideas?
It might be write-protected. If you can, get root explorer, and get a custom animation zip file.
Make sure its called bootanimation.zip
Copy to SD.
Using root explorer, navigate to system/customize/resources, mount as writeable, (little touchbox near the top). You should see a file called bootanimation.zip in there- that is the one in use.
Now go back, find where you saved your custom bootanimation.zip, copy and replace the other file. If you want, rename the original to bootanimation(1).zip and place your custom zip in next to it (in case it doesnt work and you want to revert to previous animation.)
Exit, Reboot, and should be done =)
Hope this helps.
Yeah that method definitely works as I've got a custom bootanimation on LeeDrOiD 3.0.2
Also, while you're there, you can delete (or rename) android_audio.mp3 if you want to get rid of the sound on startup.

Ugh agreed, I rebooted in the middle of the night, forgot that earlier I had turned sound back on, and scared the SH*T outta me!
Thanks for the info, do you need to be S-off to do the above?

same happend with me last night immediately went and deleted it...
When I rooted I S-OFF'ed straight away, so to be honest I don't know. As far as I'm aware, no, you need S-Off for the SPlash screen, not the Boot animation. Don't quote me on this though

Think so yeah.
I thought S-OFF was needed to make changes to the system folder while the phone was switched on (in it's normal mode...) ?
Maybe I misread somewhere
Like I said, I'm not too sure, I guess there's no harm trying it with S-ON?
@UKseagull, if you want to get S-OFF on the desire, try Unrevoked-Forever, if that doesn't work (like for me) I found an alternative.
Get AlphaRev, Click Here and download the .iso file.
However, I had a little problem burning the image as it wouldn't boot, so I used virtualBox to run it and gain S-OFF that way.

if I remember correctly unrevokedforever only works for cdma desire but not GSM so alpharev is your only option.

Ah, that's very interesting, I didn't realise. Thanks for the heads-up =)
+1
Confirming, to edit system folder you need to be s-off. Any problems with adobe flash, as it's in system, you need to be s-off. Struggled to make changes till s-offed today.
I'm gonna give it a try now..
I'm S-ON so if that doesn't work, would using adb work?
Edit: Just realised there's a second page LOL. I don't particularly wanna S-OFF, should I try adb?
Did you manage to do it on s-on?

I believe if you use ADB you can put the bootanimation.zip into /system/customize/resource folder.
If you haven't flashed the ROM yet you can just delete the original bootanimation.zip from the ROM zip folder and replace it with whichever one you want..

Did you test out the ADB method? I have a custom boot anyway, I was just wondering if you could state whether or not it worked for you so others if they have the same question could possibly get a solution.
Anyone know where to get the sound that the boot comes with (R2D2)
Download leedroid Rom and have a look in zip.

[MOD]Change the delay time for the bottom button lights

Hello xda-developers ! What i have here are multiple zip files to be installed in CWM .
What are they?
They are zip files which allow one to change the default time it takes for the bottom button leds to timeout .
How do i install them?
Simple Follow instructions below
For those crazy folks who always want the keys lit up when the screen is on click me and follow install instructions
Install instructions:
1. Download the attached zip file.
2. Open or extract the newly downloaded zip file.
3. Select whichever time delay you want.
4. Copy to the ROOT of your sdcard.
5. Boot into recovery mode.
6. Choose "Install zip from sdcard".
7. Select "Choose zip file".
8. Select the time delay file you copied earlier.
9. Reboot and enjoy.
Now i created a bunch of them from the same file and didnt test every single file . If it doesnt work attach the zip file you used in recover stating your issues and i will get back to you
Thanks!

This is great, just what I was looking for.
Just one question; is there a way to modify one of your files to increase the delay, or even so that the lights are on as long as the screen is on?

Sort of. It all depends on which kernel you are running. The only way to keep the lights off is by changing the permissions of the brightness file but some kernel's override permissions.

If it has android on it, and it has bottom lights, and it runs NAND not EMMC, then i would say give it a shot. its not going to break anything if it doesnt work. the only thing im concerned about would be the updater-script. but if its NOT EMMC then it should be fine.

If so, open it, and browse to META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script and post the updater-script file

Taken from a gnex thread:

To make boot animation to work with sound file you need right bootsound bin files, you must edit init.rc and also init.local.rc + build.prop
Unfortunately that thing works only with Gingerbread and older devices, I've tried to get it working on ICS and JB but no luck.

Kitkat partition files

I was wondering if anyone has been able to pull the partition files for kitkat? I ask because I've seen people get their phone stuck in fastboot mode and being able to flash the proper image files will help fix their probs, however the only image files I know of are for JB. I would do it myself if I knew how....

even though that should work for getting stock partitions it doesn't give them to you in .img except for the system/userdata&cache partitions so you would only be able to fastboot flash those three partitions, all other partitions are in .bin format and unless there is a way to convert them to .img(I haven't found a working method yet) than they won't work

never actually tried, but it could work(if bender says it does than it should) somebody would just need to test that theory with all the partitions, but it still doesn't allow me to explore the persist.bin renamed to .img(that contains the rct check I want to do some test with it)

So I was able to pull all the partitions for the Verizon variant (VS980). They are currently in in .bin format. Not sure if I should change them to .img tho. Haven't tested any of the files yet so on looking to see if anyone is brave enough to try lol.

Using the tool mentioned earlier you can get the system into a .img, so that you an tinker with it/I already tried with the persist.bin and rename to persist.img worked but I haven't tested anything else since I've been working on other things, otherwise anything you need to know let me know and I can test on my side

Actually I messaged bender and he said I only have to change it from .bin to .img. No tool needed.
