custom bootscreen help... - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've searched, and I've experimented, and I can't get this to work.
I put it in my system folder, under media, and under bootscreen... I zip it all up along with the usual stuff you need to make a signed zip, I sign it, and flash it and it ain't working.
Can anyone who knows how to make custom bootscreens help me please?
I'm working on this for my final thearmo theme. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Sorry! Here's the zip View attachment bootanimation.zip

If anyone wants to PM, that'd be fine too. Thanks in advance!

Do you just want a nexus bootscreen?
Heres one.. View attachment nexus.zip
EDIT: nevermind i see it changes to blue

The one I have in neb's 2.1 thread, check out the construction and update script.. It erases boot zips and folders to guarantee only mine shows up.

Thanks! I'll check that out right now! I appreciate it mucho! I'll let you know if it works.

Dana...how do you take all your pngs an make them a gif?

Considering you have Mac, like me.... you'll need Photoshop CS3/4.

Danaff...how do you take all your pngs an make them a gif?

I made it with gimp, but just edited the gifs.. I pulled the gifs from this site from other threads. lol but in gimp you just make seperate layers (copying the png's over) and save as a gif animation...

Okay, so kinda new at this. I tried to do this just for you and I'm not sure if it will work. Let me know either way if it works/doesn't work. The .apk and .odex is in this .zip file.

[Request]Vanilla aosp theme

I wanted to request a vanilla theme. That's all... For DI01 preferably.
It'd be interested in this as well. At least something that is AOSP-ish looking.

Please teach me your ways... I actually don't know how to package a zip or sign a zip for uploading, so...
I second (or third) this -- but also don't know how to pull a theme out of an existing rom.

you don't need to zip it.. just pull the framework-res.apk twframework-res.apk (something like that i know its twframework something.apk) then just push it to your phone via adb

So those two APKs are all that we need?
im not responsibile for your actions, if you brick your ish its your fault.. Im simply trying to help out those that want the aosp theme.... So with that being said **try at your own risk**
im not giving instruction on how to use these since anyone with experiance would know how to....
CREDIT DUE TO AOSP Magic by bubby323 for the theme and rom I've simply ripped the files needed to port the theme
Okay, here are the files needed. THIS IS NOT FLASHABLE IN CWR. Unzip the files, and push to system/framework. I would like to see if someone would make this compatible with DJ05. This is a bit different from bubby's, as bubby's has a few incorrect icons, most noticeably the signal meter. Also, you need the services.jar in order to get the black text in the notification bar. If anyone would like to package this up to have it work with DI01, please do so. Also, any of you theming masters out there, could you please port this for DJ05, I simply do not have the time or patience, lol.
+1 on a dj05 port =)

That would be money. Can someone do that?
I intend on doing this sometime as my first theme/port but it might be at least a week before I start because I have an upcoming exam and other work to do for my classes.
If someone else wants to undergo the task though be my guest

MiUi Screen Animations (1.9.16) Only works on MiUi and the newest build.

Here are a bunch of animations that I found. I made flashables. I will make sure that these are updated once we update EVERY build. These animations will work on any phone running the latest MiUi build. Have fun and enjoy. If you happen to stumble upon a animation no in the op, please feel free to post a link to it and as soon as i can get a chance i will make it..
.....::: Cheers :::.....
Please make sure to re boot twice and let sit for a little to allow the lagg to go away
Previews will be coming soon. I need to make them. =)
I Take Absolutely No Responsibility For Damaged or Broken Phones! Make a Back Up Before Flashing Any of These!
Bounce Animation (clickme)
Fly In and Flip Animation (clickme)
Twisted Animations (clickme)
Stock Android Animations (clickme)
For those having problem's with their phones not taking the flashables i made
First download the animation you want above.
next your going to want to pull your framework apk from the current rom your using by navigating to system>framework>framekwork.apk, place it on the pc your going to use.
rename the framework.apk to .zip and open with what ever program you use to view zips
Now that you have your stock apk renamed and opend in your zip program navigate to the res>anim folder thats going to be the folder we are going to drop the modifeied xmls in the animation zip you already downloaded
now navigat to animation.zip file you downloaded and also open in your zip program
open the anim folder
copy all of those modified xmls and paste them in your stock anim folder that we left open replace anything it asks you too
now you can close out the custom anmation we wont need it any more
now close out the stock zip as well
navigate to the stock file we just moded and rename it from .zip to .apk
and your done
push the frame work apk to the folder you took it out from and enjoy

Awesome!
Can you also make flashables for the overscroll like on CM7? The glow doesnt fit MIUI, CM7 iphone-like bouncing is way better imo ^^
Would be awesome.

Boot Animations (Taking Requests)

I'm going to start making boot animations and taking requests. If you have a request post it below...
Nook Color Exploding into CM7 Boot Animation:
DOWNLOAD HERE
Nook Color Exploding into CM9 Boot Animation:
DOWNLOAD HERE
To install put the bootanimation.zip in data/local & the next time you reboot it should appear.
Holy s**t that cm7 busting out of the nook logo is just awesome! I only ran it once and then rushed back here to comment. I found it on the thread started by whoever requested it in the first place but happened upon this post before i could navigate to the original thread.
Too goddamn cool, really! I only tried it because i thought it was so weak that the guy begged for it over a couple months time, and then ducked out without really thanking you or giving you any feedback.
I have had the animation disabled for forever, it is not something i ever cared about, but that is just great. It was a little choppy, but i have just loaded it the one time. Too cool, man. I'm gonna go watch it again...
Edit: i just saw you didn't put a link to your own work in the post! Let me help everyone out here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?y4qtm4bauhhc3ly
Let me be clear. This is bcvictory's work! He is just shy.
Thanks! This is great. I had to figure out where to place the bootanimation.zip and I can't remember right now. I'll update if nobody beats me on the procedure for changing the boot animation.
EDIT: Using Root Browser (app you use is your choice of course). I put the bootanimation.zip in /system/media/
Make sure to backup or rename to bootanimation.bak the original file in case you want to go back to the original bootanimation.

Sorry, I have been busy since posting the OP I'll update it soon..
If you put the new animation zip in data/local instead of system/media it works as well and you don't have to worry about renaming or losing the original animation.
Files put in data/local simply preempt the stock system files. It is there for the express purpose of customization. Just drop it in and reboot. The ROM does the rest. If you want to return to the original just delete it, and it automatically reverts to the original.
I put it both places first and that's just the one I removed first so I figured it wasn't necessary. Your way is definitely better.

The link for this awesome sounding boot animation is dead. If anyone has it and could point me in the right direction of where to get it, I would be most appreciative.
Thanks, Rick
It is. It is awesome.
I have it on a nandroid, I'm pretty sure.
This is a test bump, though. I don't want to restore a bunch of backups to find it for you if you aren't still looking or if someone else has it anywhere more readily available.
Anyone?
I'm away from my computer at the moment but I'll look for it when I am home. Thinking about doing a similar thing for CM9.

Hey, you don't have to restore to get things out of nandroid backups. You can get the free Nandroid Browser on the market. Extract any file with it.

Thanks leap. I should have known somebody'd gone ahead and ended that inconvenience.
Jeez, having that on device has endless advantages, if you think about it. Very cool.
And a cm9 version would be very welcome. I haven't ever cared about animations before or since, but this was cool.
Edit: and...it won't save any files to my sdcard. Unknown reason. The amount of time I spent on this I should have just restored the backup. It also won't successfully email an attachment it upload to the cloud,before you ask.
If bcvictory can't find it, I will restore and post it tomorrow. Not really interested in fixing or learning the app at this moment.
Sorry, I couldn't find it. Hopefully I will get around to the CM9 version soon.
While your waiting go to http://bcvictory.com and watch some other videos..

It is because the bootanimation.zip is not an ordinary zip. You need to include it in another zip or rar. I use rar to avoid confusion with install zips when I do attachments.

Halo Boot Animation Need help

Hey themers need some help!
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
My MLG Halo team have alot of HD2s. We were wondering if someone could make this video a boot animation. Will donate to compensate for their time. Thanks!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPPA9m9UygA
do you want the full clip
also do you want sound? may be a bit difficult to get it with the sound (not attempting the sound)
halfway there
it may be a bit big to be a boot animation

Just navigate to where the boot animation.zip file is in the rom using a file explorer a just replace it... I don't know where it is on tosti v10 most probably in the system media file
NAND OR SD ROM?
if it is magldr then copy the zip file to system/media and rename the bootanimation.zip file that is there first (as a back up incase it doesnt work) and paste the new bootanimation file... you may need to edit the permissions as they are the same as the previous boot animation
dont know if there is a difference with the boot animation folder on a sd rom

What do I do with the JPGs?
Resize them to the screen size of the phone (480x800 I think) and make the text file for it with the times etc... then make the zip file and put it on the phone in the right section. Ill explain tomorrow when im on the laptop if you don't understand... Ill make diagrams..
Also I use a programme called boot animation creater makes it easier to make and it previews it for you aswell
