Lawlz, glad to know you got it working.

Yeah it was easy. I just prefer terminal over adb. Mainly cause adb reminds me of root and root reminds me of bricks lol. Never bricked anything except a window but I still dread it lol.

You have to be rooted and grant Super User to root explorer, then switch to RW and you should be good to go.

Is this an epic thing? I think this should be cleared up for others like me who are a little new to this, because all the boot animation threads in android general say to push to data/local and that caused all sorts of problems for me that resulted in a lot of wipes and flashes. System/media with the same file works just fine.

It should be named SPC_animation_final.mp3, and it goes in the /system/customize/resource folder. Put it in that folder, set permissions, and reboot. It should work.

Oh I apologize. Yea, for some reason when I saw you were on Kings, I thought sense. You wont have the folder I mentioned. I never use a sound for my boot animation, so I'm not positive where it goes on an AOSP rom.. perhaps the same folder as the boot animation, which is /system/media. Sorry I'm not more helpful with this topic.

Howdy. I'm the buddy referenced by senor k2buckley.
What you need to do to get a boot sound on CM7/AOSP is the following.
1. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19699565/bootsnd.sh Download that file, place on your sdcard.
2. Take whatever sound you want and rename it to: android_audio.mp3 [needs to be mp3 format] and then place in your adb tools folder.
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.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-904350.html
From what I'm seeing in that thread, it looks as though you can't enable sound for the boot animation on aosp. Just read a little ways down. I found something on android forums, saying that it works on some roms, and would go on the /system/media folder. It would be named android_audio.mp3. I tried that (I'm on aosp), and it did not work. Sorry dude.
EDIT : disregard, LOL. I didn't dig.deep enough I guess. I only scratched the surface!

If you're not comfortable with adb, you can use root explorer to place the android_audio.mp3 in the /system/media folder. And feel free too.

[MOD]CRT Animation Off

Here is the modified framework-res.apk for the CRT Off Animation. Just use root explorer or equivalent to move the file to /system/framework. Your phone will reboot, and you will now have crt off. If anyone wants to make a flashable .zip, feel free.
You do need root in order to do this. And if you somehow break your phone doing this, its not my fault.

This works and is awesome. I renamed my framework-res.apk then copied with Root Explorer. I did have one small problem though nothing major. You have to re-enter your google account info and change you wallpaper back. It wipes it out for some reason. Works great after that!

On-screen buttons

My phone recently fell and my capacitive keys don't work. Its sad that I can enjoy the betas of REMICS ans SENSE 4.0 ON my epic. I would grfeatly appreciate if someone could teach me how to enable these or create them. If someone teaches me I can keep updating the file for each update and push it out for most ROMs on our epics. I have decompiled and compiled frameworks and done basic editing. I know it will take more than just a little editing but I am more then willing to learn to make this happen! Thanks to anyone who tries in advance.

adb pull FROM /storage/emulated/0 ?

I send my backups to my desktop via the "adb" command. So, since I've been running stock ROMs for a bit now, it usually goes like this:
adb pull /sdcard/TWRP /somewhere/on/my/'puter
I'm dabbling in the AOSP realm again.
So, the problem is, when I try:
adb pull /storage/emulated/0 /my/computer I get "/storage/emulated/0 does not exist." Shucks.
I got fed up with Android File Transfer, so I haven't tried that yet.
Any ideas as to what I'm missing?
Thanks and thanks.
