Bionic ROM boot animation sounds?

[thor6577]

I have Bionix ROM and I'm trying to add sounds to my bionic boot animation. But there isn't a poweron folder and I tried putting it in the history folder but it still doesn't work. Is there any way to add sounds to the animation?
EDIT: Changed to Bionix ROM and it still hasn't worked. Also tried putting sound file in Notification file and no luck D:

I think it has to do with the kernel, faux kernels don't have boot sound. Dunno about morfic or stock kernels either since I only rock faux ds kernels when released.

What kernels do have boot sound?

testing a method...will post back results ...good or bad

I was able to get sound...tried lots n lots. There is a TON posted here on the subject...found my solution in the HTC forums. Don't have the link handy but search CM7 boot sound. There is a file called bootsnd.sh that will append the necessary files and create the bootsound app needed. To finally get this to work I reflashed a new nightly of CM7. This also removed Trinity kernel...so maybe that was mucking things up. Ill reflash Trinity and see.

But to recap ...yes boot sound on LG g2x with cm7 is a go.

Taken from somewhere here in xda. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048231)

I cleared cache and dalvic using CWM.

I flashed a fresh CM7 nightly using CWM.

I Followed terminal emulator instructions...I'm sure adb from command line will work also. I used root explorer to copy android_audio.mp3 (don't forget to set system folder as R/W with root explorer.

1) search for and Download the bootsnd.sh file. Save it to the root directory of your SD Card on your Device.

2. Take whatever sound you want and rename it to: android_audio.mp3 (needs to be mp3 format) and then place in your adb directory.

3. On your phone, open terminal emulator, and type in the following:

su [enter]
cd /sdcard [enter]
ls (to list all files, you should see bootsnd.sh)
sh bootsnd.sh [enter]

You won't see a confirmation, or message, it just runs, and returns you to a # sign.

From your computer, adb push the android_audio.mp3 to the /system/media folder, reboot, and you'll have a sound.

If you don't like or know how to use adb, using root explorer and placing the android_audio.mp3 in the system/media folder works just as well (Mount the /system as R/W First). Reboot, and enjoy your boot sound.

*NOTE*

If you flash / change roms, you'll have to re-run the process to enable the boot sound again. If you get tired of it / don't want it, you can use root explorer and delete the file.

Alternate method:

For those that don't like using the terminal emulator, you can do it via adb:

navigate to your adb folder via commanda prompt, then issue the following commands:

adb remount
adb shell
cd /sdcard
ls [will list files, you should see bootsnd.sh]
sh bootsnd.sh

Like in the emulator, you will be returned with a # sign. Then place the audio file in the folder I specified. Just decided like posting an alt method

What do you mean by setting the system folder as R/W? It means read/write right? (lol write right)
EDIT: Plus how do I set it to R/W ( Sry im a little of a noob when it comes to things like this, im better at game developing )

Using a utility like Root Explorer (A paid app but worth the 4$, there may be a free alternative), makes this a trivial task...simply click the "Make R/W" will make the system directory ...you guessed it "Read/Writable". Normally its "Read Only" (R/O).

Im not 100% sure about this (im sure ill be corrected) as Root Explorer has made me lazy, but using ADB and issuing the command ADB Remount, will make the file system R/W (per the ADB Wiki adb remount - remounts the /system partition on the device read-write)

So using ADB to push your files, make all your edits on your local machine, then put them in your ADB directory, and issue commands as follows:

ADB remount
ADB push build.prop /system
ADB push init.local.rc /system/etc
ADB push bootsound /system/bin
ADB push android_audio.mp3 /data/local

EDIT:Im reflashing ROM in case.

Open terminal emulator and type
Su
Then at the # type bootsound

Do u hear sound? If not something is incorrect

If you do...then its your kernel.

Trinity breaks my bootsound.

Still looking for a fix
