Changing or disabling Boot logos/sounds

Since installing Raidroid 1.1 I had the concern of an extremely LOUD boot sound.
I decided to find out how to turn it off and let everybody know how.
It turned out to be much simpler than I thought. The method, I believe, will work with all ROMs.
There is a file in /system/media/bootscreen called boot_animation.xml - this contains the script that runs on startup.
First you need to copy that file off your phone for editing. Use any method you wish, I used adb
adb pull /system/media/bootscreen/boot_animation.xml boot_animation.xml
Now, in your current folder, you will have a copy of that file. You can edit it in notepad.
Here is mine:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!--
* Copyright © 2008 HTC Inc.
*
-->
<!-- For new bootup animation
<BootConfiguration>
<BootAnimation
image="/system/media/bootscreen/boot.gif"
audio="/system/media/bootscreen/boot.mp3"
screenX="100" (optional)
screenY="130" (optional)
useAudio="0" // 1: true ; 0:false (optional)
/>
</BootConfiguration>
-->
<!-- For cropped version -->
<BootConfiguration>
<BootAnimation
image="/system/media/bootscreen/boot.gif"
audio="/system/media/bootscreen/boot.mp3"
screenX="40"
screenY="0"
useAudio="0"
/>
</BootConfiguration>
<!-- For full screen version -->
<!--BootConfiguration>
<BootAnimation
image="/system/media/bootscreen/boot.gif"
loopimage="/system/media/bootscreen/boot.gif"
audio="/system/media/bootscreen/boot.mp3"
useAudio="0"
/>
</BootConfiguration-->
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You will see, I've highlighted the changes I made in bold.
I've disabled the audio completely but I could, for example, change the image or audio to anything I wanted. If you choose to change the image or sound file, be careful. This script runs at startup and I'm guessing that if you configure it wrongly that you may not be able to boot the phone.
Once your phone is edited, you now need to upload the amended file back to the phone. Again, I used adb. (thanks DarthOps for the remount help)
adb remount
adb push boot_animation.xml /system/media/bootscreen/boot_animation.xml
All done, now reboot your phone to test.

Thanks for sharing..works for me..

[SOLVED][Q] Reset to stock ROM (no backup) + SD card read-only fix

Hello!
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 mini, i9195. I wanted to get rid of knox, however, in my lack of knowledge, I messed up my stock firmware and I haven't created any sort of backup. I then downloaded and flashed a custom ROM to replace the stock firmware so the phone could be used again. Is there any way I can reset my phone to its original stock firmware?
If there already exists a forum that can solve my problem, please let me know. I'll delete this one and submit my problem on the already existing forum. So far I haven't found a forum for this specific device.
Any help is appreciated,
Thank You!

U can "reset" it by downloading a rom from sammobile and flash it with Odin Factory reset before flash and do not let it boot , enter download mode imediatly
If u DO NOT have Knox bootloader on your phone now, try to download an older rom made before nov 2013
Something like MH2 3 or so

Hello and thank you for your reply!
Can you please tell me what the difference is between flashing an OS with Odin and installing it via CWM?
So far, I've only installed CWM bootloader with Odin and installed all my OS through CWM recovery.
Thank you.

Hello!
I did as you asked. Flashed this firmware through Odin, from Sammobile (can't post links yet):
Model: GT-I9195
Model name: GALAXY S4 mini LTE
Country: Romania (Vodafone)
Version: Android 4.4.2
Changelist: 1646188
Build date: Tue, 27 May 2014 08:17:05 +0000
Product Code: CNX
PDA: I9195XXUCNEA
CSC: I9195VFRCNE4
MODEM: I9195XXUCNEA
When the process is almost complete, I get the following errors:
On my Phone:
Odin: Invalid ext4 image
On the Odin Interface:
[....]
<ID:0/003> cache.img.ext4
<ID:0/003> hidden.img.ext4

Hello and thank for your quick replies!
Indeed, CWM seems to solve this error.
Now to see how I can remove read only restriction from my SD card, but that's a problem for a different post

U can fix it with root and an root browser / editor like Solid Explorer
Replace in : system/etc/permissions/platform.xml
Code:
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
</permission>
With
Code:
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
<group gid="media_rw" />
</permission>

Hello and thank you for the continued assist!
My /system is read-only.
CWM asks you to restore root privileges should they have been lost, what does that actually do? I don't seem to have root access on my phone.
Do I absolutely need SuperUser to bypass the read-only restriction on /system?
//Since the thread has changed subject, I will change title to add "read-only sd card" problem as well, after I find a solution.
Thanks

Hello and thanks again,
Nvm the post above. I was just trying to understand how rooting works.
I solved my problems. Installed SuperSU (zip) through CWM. Had to update to newest version to solve "SuperSU has stopped working" problem.
I then granted superuser to Solid Explorer to modify platform.xml (FX file explorer couldn't do it). I did the modifications as you said.
Now, apps can modify sd card
Thanks a lot!

Updating SGHm919 beyond Kitkat, then Rooting ?

First and foremost I apologize if this happens to be the wrong forum for this thread. I also apologize if this has been covered, which i'm sure it has; but I've been googling and searching these particular forums for a while and cannot find this exact problem addressed. Not saying it's not there, simply that I cannot find it.
Second I'd like to ask: Is it inadvisable to upgrade beyond Kit-Kat on an SGH-M919? I have been thinking about checking out lollipop or even marshmallow, but I don't know if I would be shooting myself in the foot, what with the phone being several generations old and having dated phys. specs and hardware.
Now to the meat of my inquiry:
Recently I rooted my phone. As a newbie I wanted to take the path of least resistance. So KingRooot was the route I ended up going. I was very happy with it initially, but then realized the mistake I had made; while attempting to update my phones OS I was alerted to the fact that changes made to the OS prohibited me from going the normal route within the phones settings.
So my plan is to restore my phone to factory defaults, update as far as I can, then root using CWM/ODIN. I'm using this guide at androidrootz which seems to be very comprehensive and laid out in laymen's terms. ( attempted to link the tutorial but was thwarted by anti-spamming measures)
What I am wondering though, is if I find a way to upgrade my phone beyond KitKat, will this same root process work once the operating system has been fundamentally changed?
Additionally I'd like to know if there Is a possibility that I can flash the factory reset to revert to a fresh, rooted version of my new chosen OS? I understand that the aforementioned CWM will do exactly that, but presumably with the current installation of Kit-Kat, and not with whatever I manage to update it to, with rooting included.
I appreciate any input you may have, and once again apologize for my noobish nature

I would also like to add that I have never used Odin previously. I understand that it would allow me to flash whatever I wanted for the most part, but as someone who is new to modifying phones (and who is rather poor and with bad credit) I am overly cautious to do anything that might harm my phone. I understand that odin is well known and trusted, but it's my own lack of knowledge and experience in this field that I do not trust. Once again, thanks in advance for your patience and for any help provided.

Here is my recommendation:<br />
Download AOKP 6.0.1, which is what I am using every day on my M919.

Okay thank you very much for the prompt reply. I just have a few further questions,s then I will try it when I get home.
As far as the first thing you mentioned downloading, The aokp 6.0.1... am I correct in my assumption that this version number is referring to the version of android? I.e. will it install marshmallow?
Also you say to transfer gapps and some other files to my sd card. Must it be in Abby specific dinner
Folder/partition? Or is it just the root directorY I'm shooting for?

Great questions!
First, AOKP 6.0.1 is Marshmallow, however, some ROMs have version numbers that do not correlate with Android versions, but in this case it does.
Second, you can put the files anywhere on your phone, however, keep in mind that after you backup your old system (so you can always go back) the next step is to wipe the phone, so you should put the files on the external sdcard, because you will not wipe that.
Clear as mud?
Also, there are other great ROMs to use, but AOKP is very stable and everything works. Post #3 of that thread has some great tips for any problems with Bluetooth, if you run into any, and there are many people there (including me) who can answer any questions you have. We don't discriminate against newcomers.
Let me know if you have more questions!

Edit: Also, sorry the above instructions have the line brakes (br) in there, I copied from my post in the AOKP thread, and it came out that way. It is post #153 of the AOKP thread, if you want to read it without the br's in there.....

Yes quite clear, thanks again for the quick response.
I understand that it's stable, per your response but I wonder what its impact on my performance might be?
I find that this phones battery capacity is a bit underwhelming. Draining sometimes less than eight hours. Will upgrading to marshmallow make things worse?
I've Been thinking about buying an extended internal battery but am reluctant to ditch my otterbox.
Thanks again

It runs smooth as butter, check out the thread if you would like. Runs great, but you are welcome to choose any ROM you like. That's the best part about Android!

I just went through your step 100% to the T. The process was pretty smoothe, until I got tot he GAPPs bit. Upon atempting to install GAPPS, I was alerted that there was not enough space . Now it's booting up. I loved the AOKP splash screen. Currently getting the "Android is startnig.. Optimiznig app ##x out of ##y".
So this whole process not only got me on marshmallow, but also granted me root access and replaced the restore point with one of the image I jut installed? Am I correct in my understanding?

EDIT: Could not find means to delete.

Great work!
As for the gapps, there is not enough room for the bigger gapps package, because those are huge, once uncompressed. I use arm, 6.0, pico or nano, personally. If you have trouble installing these gaps, go to twrp, wipe, install ROM, then wipe davlik/cache, then install pico or nano gapps.
As for your questions, yes, you are now marshmallow with root permission. You can test this with any app that needs root, it will pop up and ask if that app can have root permission, to which you can click yes or no, or just this once, etc.

Hp 10 plus tablet 2201 root!!

Im sorry if this is the wrong place, I tried to comment on a root conversation where it would apply most, but I couldn't post. Anyway...this device has just been left in the dark, little to nothing about a solid root. I tried Kingroot....and then again and again....im not sure whats going on with a one button root, but my idea was it was doing something over and over making it weaker....I ran it about 10 times and I was suprised it rooted!!! But soon I realided it didnt matter much, cause there are no custom roms or Kernels...so...I don't know, just wanted to let a few guy know, maybe repetition of Kingroot will help them and they can go on to build roms and things! Thanks everyone, this site is the only source I hit for everything android! I have a screen shot...just unsure how to post...on a virgin! My first post!!

Thanks!! Rooted my HP 10 Plus (Australian version) after 3.5 years of trying unsuccessfully.
Rooting wiped all data from the tablet!
It took many restarts of both programming and tablet (forced). I even reinstalled Kingroot several times to get it out of loops.
Your next steps are:
Use EsExplorer to change the root folder (/) permissions from RO to RW.
Navigate to /system/etc/permissions
Here there is a file called "platform.xml"
Open platform.xml
Find the permission block below. It will not have the last line in it. ADD this line
<group gid="media_rw" />
The block will now look like this:
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
<group gid="media_rw" />
</permission>
CHECK AND DOUBLE CHECK THAT YOU HAVE ALTERED THE CORRECT BLOCK EXACTLY AS ABOVE!!
Save the file.
Restart your tablet.
You will now have full write access to your microSD card.
Thanks again.
br, John

Process?
Hi KingRat! Can you share the process you used to Root the HP 10 Plus after adding this file permission?
I would like to install a Linux Distro on mine (Aussie Model as well)

[GUIDE] Remove suggestions from settings (Stock Android 10)

Hi there!
So, anybody who updated to android 10 knows about the annoying suggestions appearing in settings, which at the moment can't be dismissed or swiped away. Clearing the data of Settings Suggestions app can "fix" the issue momentarily but it'll come back again. Seems like the issue is about suggestions.xml file (/data/data/com.android.settings.intelligence/shared_prefs/suggestions.xml) not updating the boolean values correctly.
Examples:
Code:
<boolean name="com.android.settings/com.android.settings.wallpaper.StyleSuggestionActivity_is_dismissed" value="false" />
Code:
<boolean name="com.android.settings/com.android.settings.wallpaper.WallpaperSuggestionActivity_is_dismissed" value="false" />
The above lines must be changed from "false" to "true" in order for the suggestions to be dismissed but root is required to access and edit the suggestions.xml file i mentioned above. However, i managed to discover a rootless way of doing that by creating an adb data only backup of Settings Suggestions app. I used adb backup extractor to extract the backup file and edit suggestions.xml, restored the edited backup file via adb restore and the suggestions were gone. I've tried the method twice just to be sure and it's working.
I'm attaching the zip containing the edited backup file that you guys can restore using "adb restore data.ab" command.
NOTE: The restore process won't work on old adb drivers so make sure you use the latest platform tools before trying.

Could you also include a backup of this boolean?
Code:
<boolean name="com.google.android.gm/com.google.android.gm.setup.AccountSetupFinalGmailSuggestions_is_dismissed" value="true" />

1 - Make sure you have the latest adb drivers.
2 - Extract the attached zip and put "data.ab" in the same folder were the adb executable is.
3 - Enable usb debugging in your device
4 - Connect the device and execute "adb restore data.ab" in adb

I'm afraid that by replacing our data.ad with the one provided by you, will cost the loss of our app data.
Is there a toolkit to help us edit data.ad?

As u can notice, the backup is a mere 2 kb file. It's a backup of only the Settings Suggestions app data, which is responsible for the suggestions in settings. However, if u are not comfortable using my backup, adb backup extractor is the tool you need....

Just wanna clarify if this needs root or not

Bro, Thanks a lot for your work and even big thanks for sharing! I have one more bug that I saw only a few people mentioning. I have sent it to Xiaomi also but there's no response. So here is the deal. I see the font and display size as 'big' on the lockscreen, when I have kept settings of both to 'small'. I have to go to settings and do some back n forth to get the uniform results. It turns back after I restart the device. Do you know or could you please find any solution to it? Thanks again!

@amnher Nope, only adb
@tejas1903 In my case, when i change the display size, certain elements like the power menu revert back to their original size after locking the phone (lock screen isn't affected though). I noticed it only happens when i use fingerprint unlock, which means getting rid of the fingerprints and keeping pin/password/pattern only as a method of unlocking fixes the issue in my case. I don't know if we are affected by the same bug, you can test it by removing the fingerprint and see for yourself. It's a pitty, when the first android 10 update came i thought the suggestion bug would be fixed by the 2nd update, yet here we are on the 4th one. Xiaomi really takes it's time in fixing the bugs however i still hope for a future bug free release....

@tejas1903 In my case, when i change the display size, certain elements like the power menu revert back to their original size after locking the phone (lock screen isn't affected though). I noticed it only happens when i use fingerprint unlock, which means getting rid of the fingerprints and keeping pin/password/pattern only as a method of unlocking fixes the issue in my case. I don't know if we are affected by the same bug, you can test it by removing the fingerprint and see for yourself. It's a pitty, when the first android 10 update came i thought the suggestion bug would be fixed by the 2nd update, yet here we are on the 4th one. Xiaomi really takes it's time in fixing the bugs however i still hope for a future bug free release....

1. So if i disable adb it will stay?
2. And I suppose factory reset will revert?

I'll keep the backup file updated with any new suggestion that appears until Xiaomi fixes it, if they do. I haven't encountered this one yet, which means i don't know the corresponding boolean to add to the suggestions.xml. If you manage to find it you can post it right here. If you can't, you can also post a data backup of your Settings Suggestions app using the following command (and i'll find it myself):
adb backup -f data.ab -noapk com.android.settings.intelligence

It should be this line:
Code:
<boolean name="com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.gms.trustagent.discovery.OnbodyPromotionActivity_is_dismissed" value="true" />
Btw, thank you very much, this is also a problem for Mi A2 since the android 10 update and your workaround worked great for me too.

You're welcome! Mi A3, Mi A2, Mi A2 Lite and some other Nokia phones seem to have this issue. Thanks for posting the On Body Detection boolean, however since my "suggestions.xml" has no such line and i added it manually, i don't know if it'll work.... So, i'm attaching a test backup file which @gamernayeem or anyone who has the On Body Detection suggestion can try and see if it works. I'll update the OP then

Thanks man, i use your ideea to mi A2lite with andro Q, with same problem. I have a question: in the process of unpacking you use linux or just windows?
