[Module][Magisk][Pixel][Pixel 2][Bootanimation][Systemless]

[Wartickler]

Is this right?

Here some magisk modules which can install Google Pixel (2016) & Google Pixel (2017) phones' bootanimation systemlessly.

I'm checking: Google-pixel-2-dark-bootanimation-systemless.zip

In module.prop:

id=pixel2bootanimationdark

- but -

in config.sh:

# This will be the folder name under /magisk
# This should also be the same as the id in your module.prop to prevent confusion
MODID=googledialercontactsmessages

Not a problem?

You downloaded the old version. He fixed it in v2 last November. Use Pixel-2-Dark-Bootanimation-Systemless-v2.zip

Oh I see! Thank you.

I wonder why keep the old version there...?

EDIT:
And, of course, I fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The first, is never get involved in a land war in Asia. But only slightly less well known is, never ask a question that's already been answered if you didn't read the entire previous posts! AHAHAHAH! AHAHAHAH! AHAHAHAH! [I'm dead.]

Tried installing but get a failed result telling me to use magisk 14+.
I'm using magisk 16.4

That's because the module template used is old and the module needs an update to work with Magisk v16.3+.

can somebody update template?
I do it by myself https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZDZJ4-lX9DddZGmvowEJZv8pidUgpQ3G/view?usp=drivesdk @keithleyson check this version

 

[keithleyson]

Worked great! Thank you!

The template is still 1400, it doesn't look like you did anything. It'll work with Magisk 16 but not 16.4 and newer.

Seeing how it worked, maybe you just forgot to update the template version in the module.prop. Also, the version and versionCode need to be bumped. No reason to get bent out of shape. Mistakes help you learn.

Here's the Pixel 2 Dark version updated to template 1500:

I can't use this module properly in Android P. After installation, the boot animation completely "disappeared". Opening the /system/media directory, I found that the bootanimation.zip file size is wrong and it is getting smaller. I don't know what happened.

BTW, it should be

minMagisk=1500

instead of

template=1500

in the last line of the moudle.prop file.

Thanks for letting me know, I forgot to test it on Pie. It turns out it requires updating due to changes in Magisk 16.4:

In this major refactoring, I finally decided to remove post-fs mode. As a replacement, the files for simple mount should now be moved from /cache/magisk_mount to /data/adb/magisk_simple, and will be mounted immediately in post-fs-data mode before the daemon initialization.

I updated it accordingly and I verified the bootanimation.zip in /system/media is dark, but the animation is still the default white. I attached it if you want to test.

EDIT: Apparently, post-fs-data is loaded too late after the bootanimation starts. This is with Magisk 16.7.

I found that the module works fine when compressing the bootanimation.zip file. Of course, I can't use a higher compression ratio directly because it seems that the bootanimation.zip file can only be saved in Store mode. So I compressed the png file in bootanimation.zip. Also, this bootanimation was remaked by myself, which removed "Powered by Android". You can download it for testing. (I'm sorry that I can't upload the file directly because of the limit of xda, and this link is only available for 7 days.)

I replaced the bootanimation.zip in my test version above with your compressed version but it still does not load. Your module is missing /common/post-fs-data.sh. You can't replace the bootanimation.zip in /system/media directly as the Magisk daemon hasn't started until after the boot animation starts.

Does it work this time? You can have a try. In my case, sometimes it works very well, sometimes it doesn't work at all. Download it here, and just available for 7 days again.

Nope. Again, I think it's due to post-fs-data not loading in time before the boot animation starts.

Doesnt work on Magisk 17.0 & 17.1
