Droid boot animation? - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I remember with some of the early Expresso ROMs, there was a boot animation for the G1 that was a resized version of the Motorola Droid's bot screen, sound effect and all. Does anyone know where to find this?

That would be badass

Try to find a copy of the expresso ROM and stuff it in whatever ROM you're using and sign/reflash.

Unzip, then push the bootanimation.zip to /system/media, then reboot.
Enjoy!
I am using this boot animation since a few days!
Though its weird that the its written DROID when the phone starts up(as Samsung has no Droid) but still it looks good.I like it better than the n1 boot animation.
As written in the title it is a mod of the Motorola Droid X boot animation, so that shouldnt be surprising.
dude can u please make a file which can be applied from recovery and post the link here..
OK.

great!!!
hmm.. can someone post a link to another host like mediafire? From where I am, it's virtually impossible to download from these two hosts, as they always say download limit exceeded.
Is this the same one in Frozen Eclair?

Does this animation cycle the "droid" text again and again or does it show "DROID" only one and then stays on the "green eye"?
Droid once, then green eye loop.
just hoping
now I really like this boot animation but every time I have tried to use it on my droid x it comes up as nothing does it have to be resized to 480 x 480 and if so is there anyone out there that can make this? as I love the color green and would love it so much to be able to use this animation for my phone thanx
Good work, sir. This is pretty badass. I'd like to resize it to 480 x 480 and drop the framerate down to 15 or 20. Any suggestions on doing that correctly? I've tried but no luck yet.
Loving the bootanimation man works great on my Galaxy S, but is there any chance you could up-scale it for the bigger screen?
may i test it first bro??
than i will review again
great!!!!!!!!

[B]Custom Boot Animations[/B]

Hey everyone.
Thought id make a thread so everyone can show there fav boot animations.

Does the boot animation have to be made specifically for the DHD or can it be from any device?
Where would I find one and how would I install it?

maybe different roms hve different locations or sumthing
im using leedroids rom
otherwise try putting it in
/system/customize/resource
Yeah, that did the trick. Thanks
I need some help as I don't know what file name or file type or location for the shutdown sound I've created. Does anyone know this? I'm guessing it should go in "/system/customize/resource" as this works for replacing the shutdown animation (which is "downanimation.zip")
Does anyone know this?
I'll be sure to post the boot & shutdown animations plus the sounds in the Themes & Apps section once I'm finished... just need this and I'll be done soon.

Nexus S Boot and Shutdown Animations + ringtones ect (UPDATED)

I pulled the boot animation from the Nexus S dump. I also reversed some of it and made a shutdown animation. On top of that I pulled the ringtones/notifications/alarms and UI sounds. Took it all and zipped it up into a flashable zip. Always backup before flashing anything
The only problem I have found is the shutdown animations doesn't overwrite the entire shutdown folder. So if you have more then 46 .pngs in your existing shutdown folder they only the first 46 will be overwritten. Can someone modify the zip to delete the shutdown folder prior to replacing it. That would fix the problem. Everything else works very well...... I'm newer to zips for if someone can fix the problem this will work great.
EDIT: This has only been tested on Mammon88's new ROM base with custom kernel.....
YOU NEED A KERNEL THAT SUPPORTS CUSTOM BOOT ANIMATIONS.....
You can also use my midNIGHT ROM (This is built in already) located at PPCGEEKS http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/sprint-ep...-7-froyo-dk28-nexus-s-goodies-12-16-10-a.html
Had to upload to rapidshare cause the file was to large to upload here.
http://rapidshare.com/files/437742174/Nexus_S_Combo.zip
UPDATE: Here is the Link to the Ringtones Zip
I have also separated everything so those without a Kernel that allows for custom bootanimations aren't left out
Think this will work with both dk28 and di18? Stupid question, I'm sure but I'm a cautious fool =)
will i lose all my other current existing sounds or does this just add to them?

I included the stock sounds as well. I use it with my midNIGHT ROMS based on Mammon88's new releases with custom kernel.. My ROMS are here if interested.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/sprint-ep...-7-froyo-dk28-nexus-s-goodies-12-16-10-a.html
So I got impatient and decided to try it. The shut down one worked but not the startup. stock rooted di18
Does this include the animation when you turn your screen off??

I pulled the boot animation the other night and all I got was the four colors coming to together to form an "X" but it keep looping over and over until the phone booted up. Is there more to the animation or is that the gist of it?

Same issue, Andromeda DI18 rom.
bootanimation is only supported as *.qmg format unless you have a kernel that supports bootanimation.zip (boot animations as a zip file)...
Maybe you should list compatible ROMS, the following should be compatible but they still need to be confirmed:
Heroic Epic
Mammon's Bonsai4All
[ACS] SyndicateROM (Shuriken)
[ACS]Xtreme Kernel (Lucy)
[ROM]VIPERrom [TRiNiTY] DK28

I can confirm the same results on Epic Experience ROM. The shutdown is pretty cool. Wish I had it for the bootup.
Sorry been busy. You need to use Mammon88's new base......I'll update the OP....
can i get a zip of just the shutdown not the startup..
How big is the file suppose to be? My dl was only 236 bytes..

Either use Mammon88's base ROM or my midNIGHT ROM http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/sprint-ep...-7-froyo-dk28-nexus-s-goodies-12-16-10-a.html
Any chance of a zip of just the notification sounds and ringtones?
Can someone post a mirror to this. Rapidsucks is not letting me dowload and keeps giving me that I can't download anymore from my ip unless I upgrade. Seems like a scam if you ask me.

[BOOT] Android Swirl Boot *updated 12/30/10*

Update: added straight logo animation as requested by tyl3rdurden
Just thought I'd toss this out there. One of the animations I made while learning some new programs and am currently using myself. The panning lights will continue until your phone boots. It should work on any of the DK28 based ROMs that use Mammon's kernel or a variation thereof for custom animations.
There is a funky sound that comes along with it that I mangled from the wonderful site www.freesound.org under the CC Sampling Plus 1.0 license
The .zip is flashable through CWM and as usual I'm not responsible if this jacks up your phone in any way.

You should back up and delete the stock sprint animations out of your system folder. The new boot animation is called bootanimation.zip. The stock is .qmi or something like that.

Of course, the "stock sprint animations" were for my case, I believe you need to delete the one you no longer need. Backup and give it a try!
Anyway to get this for EB13?

Looks good...

Get one of the CWM3 boot amimations flashable zip from the supernova thread. Download these animations. Replace the bootanimation.zip in the CWM3 with the one in these files.
You just flash this, correct?
had this when i was on midnight rom. awesome boot animation!
Any way to get this as a shut down animation?

[BOOTANIMATION] SyndicateROM 1.1.0 Alternate Boot Screen

Hey guys, I got my Epic on Wednesday and I've been modding nonstop. I was rooted, flashed to SyndicateROM 1.1.0 via CWM, and overclocked to 1.2GHz the first day
One thing I didn't like about the ROM (about the only thing - it's an INCREDIBLE improvement over stock, huge thanks to the developers!) was the boot animation - it didn't match the streamlined look of the ROM, and I wished the boot animation would match the shutdown animation. So I sat down with a couple brews last night and went to work.
I figured this would be a way to "give back" to the community for all of the help and improvements I've received in just a couple of days, even though I've just been lurking. I hope at least a couple of people benefit from my work!
The animation shows the Galaxy "S" come flying in (inverse of the shutdown animation) and "SyndicateROM" and "v. 1.1.0 EXT4" fade in afterwards. Then, the "S" pulses blue until the ROM is loaded.
The preview is attached (I couldn't link an outside link since this is my first post lol...). The .gif animates faster than it actually does on the phone.
Be sure to rename the file to bootanimation.zip, copy to \system\media\, etc etc you all know the drill. Enjoy!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT: I had edited the previous version's desc.txt before uploading, and Windows automatically compressed the file when I re-saved it to the archive. This is why it wasn't working. The fixed version is up!
If you're having trouble getting it to work, qbking77 has an instructional video: youtube.com/watch?v=ObdysHi1OIc
It looks good man! Congrats on the Epic
Nice..thanks
Blank screen for me at boot up. Still boots but displays nothing after the Samsung screen.

make sure you Delete the original bootanimation before you copy it into the system/media. If you overwrite the file it can cause issue's.
And thanks, your first post and it's already giving to the community =)
NIce..thanks for the boot animation......
and Ultra where did u get that gif that is sooooo funny
I'm still getting a black screen with no boot animation even after I deleted the original and pasted the new one.
I renamed the zip bootanimation.zip (or is it supposed to be bootanimation.zip.zip?)
Then I moved it into system/media/ using root explorer.
Am I doing something wrong?
EDIT: It's not even that solid black screen. I see "android" in black glossy font.
EDIR: Now I don't even see the "android". HELP!
Deleted old boot animation and copied the new one in. Now I am also getting a blank screen.
I found a different boot animation. That one worked. No worries.

Everyone has been PMed - the issue has been fixed. Thanks for trying my boot animation, everyone!
It looks nice, I like how its similar to the clean look of the epic experience bootscreen.
My only request is that you please remove the 'version' of syndicate rom and leave it clean so that we can use it regardless of the future upgrade. They just came out with 1.1.1 so it just makes sense to make this more universal so we can even use it with the gingerbread bootup.

I really like this animation -- good job! I do agree with sceptor, though. It would be nice if ACS would incorporate this as I really like the cleaner look at startup. Their default animation just seems a bit "much" to me.
I will use it when the version is updated. Love it too.
Couldn't wait, but please update version. Lol.

Could you add a 1.0.2 version? It's the only SFR version that works on my phone!
J/k. I would never ask for that. But if you remove the version I would be interested. I'm running a BIOS boot animation right now. I took warlords and converted it to edify.

Agreed...good work. I prefer this over the "guns and ammo" stock version.
