I would like to do work on making a custom boot animation of my own. However, I am not sure of the process to do such a thing. Can somebody please post a how to?
I have searched here and googled but cant seem to come up with anything. I can only find info on how to install one. Im trying to MAKE my own.
Thanks guys.

Hello, Im new here to the community and I am (of course) loving my rooted, ROM'd Droid. I have been trying custom boot animations, which is quite easy to do. My problem is, I found a ''basic'' bootanimation (here in the Eris section), and decided that I should try to customize it (as it was only text on the boot animation). I edited each .png file, saved, rezipped, and flashed. Now all I get is a black screen before boot.
I tried to change the size (in the desc.txt) but that didnt work either. I was hoping someone could look at it and let me know where I have went wrong. Like I said, all I did was add/move words on the .pngs.
I am including the original boot animation: 'YearoftheDroid.zip' and then the one I edited: 'bootanimation.zip'. Any help would be greatly apprectated, as I want to get rid of the Motorola Logo also.
Thanks for all of your help and this community! (I hope Im asking in the right place)
Oh yeah, the original YearoftheDroid.zip boot animations works fine on my Droid before I edit it.
(Also, is there a program for me to test boot animations on my pc before I try it on the Droid? I did see one post with it, but it was sent via pm, so I could not find a download link.)
The file sizes are way off, is this why? Also, why would the file size change so dramtically if all I am doing is moving text and adding the 'DROID' logo? (I would think that my edited one would be bigger).
Thanks Again!
I have been trying to get this boot animation to work. I video that is too small and every attempt to change it has failed. I'm probably in over my head! Anyway I'm hoping that someone could point me in the direction of it already resized for touchpad. Also have been toying with the sound but no luck for me. I'm happy I've made it this far. I wish I could put a link to the YouTube video but have no clue how to. Its on there search bad android boot animation

Which boot animation? You don't specify.
You can try the fix for full screen boot animation that gav_chap posted in the development forum. I'm using it and it's working for me. Instructions are in the post. All you have to do is flash the zip. If you don't like it, he's posted a way to revert it.
Sorry should have been more clear. The name of the boot animation is "bad android ". Its for cm7 android 2.3.7 and its on a HP touchpad. 768 x 1024.
Hello,
I just got my 64gb HTC One today. I have rooted and am running CWM recovery 6.0.3.1, with Trickdroid 5.2.1 ROM. I have not flashed a different kernel, so unless Trickdroid does that mines stock.
The problem im running in to is that when i try to change boot animations (ive tried via ES file explorer and move the animation .zip to the system/media folder, as well as tried using ROM Toolbox Pro), status bar icons such as battery (tried with ROM Toolbox Pro), or changing the status bar's pull-down background (again tried with ROM Toolbox Pro), it doesn't work. Nothing ever changes, and the features that require installation from recovery give the following message within CWM....
--
Installing: /sdcard/romtoolbox/status_bar/StatusBg-Android10.zip... (varies depending on the item im trying to install)
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Installation aborted ...
/tmp/recovery.log was copied to /sdcard/clockworkmod/recovery.log. Please open ROM manager to report the issue.
This is the first device Ive rooted, and am still learning a lot as i go along. Is this something that any of you may be familiar with? Something im missing, or should approach differently? Ive tried to search for the answers but havent been able to find any, if theyre out there and i missed them a link would be appreciated (i dont want anyone to have to repeat what i may have overlooked.
Many thanks in advance, this website is an incredible resource!

post this on trickdroid thread dont think you can do it but i might be wrong

Ok, I didn't realize there was a thread specifically for Trickdroid. Ill start a thread there. Do you think it may be a limitation imposed by the ROM?
Thank you for your advice about the other thread.
I am having the same problem with my Sprint HTC One using TWRP as my recovery. When I try to change boot animations in ROM Tool Box Pro it does not change the animation. When I try to change the status bar settings with ROM Tool Box Pro it reboots my whole phone and trashes the existing ROM so I have to restore with recovery. Before I got the HTC One I had a EVO and it crashed to trying to change status bar settings but would at least install boot animations. I not sure if its ROM Tool Box Pro is the problem or not.
Yeah, im still trying to figure it out as well. I cant post in the Trickdroid forums and their websites doesn't offer a support option. As of now im trying some different ROMs, but having little to no success with changing icons, boot animations, and other appearance tweaks.
Android can definitely be a bit of work it seems, but im enjoying it. I like the idea of eventually having the exact phone I want. Im just finding more questions that answers at the moment. lol
Hey guys, so i'm tryna make this boot animation. I can get it to mount/push with adb, It messes up my phone if i install it with Rom Toolbox.
Basically, I just want to get feedback and help with this.

Hello,
I have everything ready to install Magisk on my LG G4 LS991ZVI and I have ready many tutorials and believe I am clear on the steps but I am using the method without TWRP, where the Magisk manager does patching of a stick boot image and I cannot find what I believe to be a legitimate stock boot image anywhere on the net! (I'm sure I just dont' know where to look)
Anyway, this is the first time I've ever modified a phone so forgive me if this is a really simple question, but if anyone could tell me where to download this image or send it to me I would be very grateful!
OK, thanks a lot for reading this and have a great day!
