* will pay for boot audio fix * -ZTE Blade

[Guest carkev]

I am using Ginger Stir Fry rom which I like very much indeed,

and as a bit of a newbie have even learned how to install a personalised splash screen and boot animation.

but can anyone advise if boot audio is disabled in this rom ?

despite spending many hours online and in various forums

I cannot find anyone who has cracked how to get boot audio working on an ZTE Blade.

in desperation I have even tried flashing an 'enable bootsound' zip file I found at CM forum.

as stated, I would even pay someone for a working solution !

Don't know why it isn't working with Ginger Stir Fry but boot sound should work with this ROM. Triple Two Project:

http://android.modac...v5-android-222/

Just add /system/media/audio/ui/Bootsound.mp3. The original chinese ROM that it's based on had boot sound which I've since removed.

I would be interested in this as well have tried a number of files in various locations but have yet to hear a peep on boot up!

Have put both an .mp3 & .ogg Bootsound file in this location to no avail, I wonder is there a file size limitation?

Just tested it with Triple Two Project v5 and it worked. Tested with original Bootsound.mp3 (~100kb) and with my own .mp3 (~500kb), both of them worked. I don't think there's any size limit. Are you still on Ginger Stir Fry?

File name is case sensitive so it should be 'Bootsound.mp3'. Also make sure that the file has correct permissions (644).

@KonstaT

cheers mate,

late reply due to my forum email notifications not coming through, even though enabled.

I had tried in vain with Bootsound.mp3, plus android_audio.mp3, android.mp3, and boot.mp3 ...

as was suggested elsewhere.

I may try that rom you suggest if I do not succeed in the next few days (it is all really bugging me now !)

ps: I have tried everything suggested,

putting the 's' line in desc.txt, but cannot remember which audio file I pointed it at,

and even had had the mp3 in the bootanimation.zip file

Cheers Konsta, Yeh I was aware of the case sensitive nature of the file, Ill check the file has the same permissions as the rest of the directory. I'm on GSF b18.
