Its in mp3 format correct?

Yes sir it is. The boot animation is a zip like it is supposed to be and in the correct location. I believe the sound is working sorry I should have said that. It is just the boot animation. I am going to try and change it with romtoolbox and then copy the one back and see if that works.

Edit: Yeah that seemed to work. The blue razor bootanimation is now working.

What are some AnTuTu benchmark scores with the ROM and Plague's Extreme kernel? I'm tryin to decide if I should install the ROM; I'm already getting a 4550 on my scores. Would it improve substantially? I don't want to install it, because I actually like the stock ROM.

When it comes down to it bench Mark scores dont mean anything. You can get low scores and the phone will be running good. Or you can get really high scores and the phone be laggy.

and also depending on whats all running in the background, get fast reboot from market and use it than run antutu and you will see what i mean, even on stock rom with oc kernel i get high scores.

I haven't noticed this being mentioned before, but I just installed the rom and cannot use usb mass storage. I have the box checked to ask each time when I plug usb in, but nothing. On the stock rom a notification would pop up, but on here nothing. It does say it is charging, though.

 

[revogozoom]

Should be in your notifications. Just click it to change.

That's the thing, I get nothing in the notification bar. I only get a charging symbol on the battery icon and lock screen.

You could try re installing the drivers on your pc, Ive had that happen after flashing a rom.

Also go to settings-connectivity and make sure you have the box checked and a default set, could have been changed with the rom install

Kinda funny, but I rebooted my computer and now it works. Thanks for the quick responses!

...To explain... I use Fedora, and since mass storage wasn't working I tried it under Windows. After the reboot it works on both!

Rom installs confuse some things. I had to get a new device ID for my online banking after installing Gingersteem lol.

 

[MJpetrus]

I want to do this so bad but I'm the biggest noob, could you make a video on installing cwm and gingersteem from start to finish? Pleasee?

 

[revogozoom]

I wouldnt mind making a vid but the only thing I have to record with is my phone so that wouldnt work out too well lol.

Three things.

1) True or false: The only significant difference between GingerSTEEM 1.0 and GingerSTEEM EXTREME is the kernal and theme.

2) On stock rom, The boot sound was located under the Power folder. It was named MetroPCS_PowerOn.mp3....Where is it now? and what is it called?

3) After turning your phone on, It says "DROIIIIID" when the system loads. Where is this DROIIIID file located so I can edit it.

 

[revogozoom]

1) true
2) same
3) see #2

True, same place as stock.

On the Extreme Its actually not the famous kind of annoying drrrroooid. The Extreme has the Droid Razr boot animation and GingerSteem has the Nexus' boot animation.

Here's a preview of the Razrs animation. (Minus the Motorola dual core splash screen)

Thank you so much guys. Im eternally grateful


Im going to stick with 1.0 and the extreme kernal then. No sense in flashing a new rom just for a boot screen .

 

[MJpetrus]

but seriously though, how about that video

Man, not tryin to b a ass, but no video.. The directions are very clear, as is the info all over our part of this forum. If you cant root, & install roms & kernels just from reading on this forum for general directions for a couple hrs, then you might not want to do these things to your phone. You can turn it into a paper weight really quick!
You got to learn this the way they set it up for the noobs to learn. Only took me a day..
Just follow the directions.& ask questions when u get stumped.

Go into cwr and flash your backup. Then reflash the ROM you were trying to install.
