Finished this series of colors for this boot. Going to take a little break from this series to work on a different type of animation and look more into resolution vs. fps stuff. Enjoy!
New: I added a fuchsia shutdown animation by request. Not much of a helix on this one, more messing with what kind of fancy loopage I could get out of the streaks. Sorry it took so long! Life...perpetually in the way of things.
I was able to get a 47 MB series of files down to 12 MB at 90% resolution and still it was far too slow. The thing that perplexes me is that even 65% resolution is still far too slow and in fact is not much faster than 90% or 100%, but at 50% it basically goes at the intended speed. If there is anybody knowledgeable about crushing PNGs while not sacrificing too much resolution, or maybe has better insight into how the bootanimation.zip is actually read, please let me know.
EDITS:
4/5/11: Added Helix Fuchsia Shutdown
4/1/11: Added Helix Fuchsia Boot.
3/28/11: Added Helix Red Shutdown.
3/27/11: Added Helix Green Shutdown.
3/26/11: Added Helix Red Boot.
Added Helix Green Boot.
Updated Helix Green to slightly higher res (half res)
3/23/11: Added Helix shutdown animation.
About Flashing Shutdown Animations:
Shutdown animation exists as a sequence of PNG files in /system/media/video/shutdown so this zip will simply copy the image files there. HOWEVER, since this is not simply replacing one file like the boot animation, if you currently have a shutdown animation this zip you should delete the folder using your root accessible file manager of choice (unsolicited advertisement: Root Explorer does very well with read/write permissions and is totally worth the purchase) or adb the folder out of there. If you flash over an existing PNG sequence it may be prone to weird flashing and stuttering.
DISCLAIMER: ALWAYS have a backup of your system BEFORE you flash. I am not responsible for anything bad happening to your phone should you choose to flash these files.
These zips are flashable in CWM3.0+ (edify scripts). It wipes the cache so your first boot might be a bit long.

I actually don't know if edify zips work in 2.5. I feel like I've heard of some version of CWM 2.5 that could flash them, but I've never actually tried as I went to 3.0 some time ago. However, if you like you can just pull the bootanimation.zip file out of Helix Boot.zip and either adb push it or use a root explorer to copy it to your appropriate system directory. Speaking of which (hijacking my own thread here), are all the Epic kernels out there now in agreement for using /system/media for custom boot animation? I should've said I've only tried it on Bonsai 3.0.1 as I haven't made the leap to 4.0.0 yet but I assume they haven't changed that.
Pure awesomeness! Thanks!

Amazing! If this does not satisfy the person looking for the double helix, at least you made a lot of the rest of us happy. I too have been rebooting my phone just to show this off
Okay just flashed this animation and it is definitely the best animation i have come across so far.
Thanks a lot! Glad people are enjoying it. Can't wait for the challenge of making a coherent sub-6 second animation as the devs keep pushing these phones
so search is down now but I tried looking to see how to get boot animations to work. I have cwm3 and am runner the latest syndicateROM frozen. Do I just download this, attach to sd and then "flash" it in cwm? Or do I need to delete the other boot animation that came with the rom?
I just dont want to mess anything up

Just flash it through CW 3.0. It will just replace the current boot animation that is in Syndicate. You do not need to take anything out of your current ROM.
thanks jct!
so awesome! works on cwm 2.5 incase anyone was wondering!

first off.. WOW. awesome animation.
2nd- @ whoever wanted the 2.5 cwm zip.. just convert it yourself. there is a a great forum here about converting cwm 2.x.x to 3.x.x and vice-versa. i've used it myself to create custom themes. its really easy. just need 7-zip and a few mins and you're all good to go! good luck

How long would you consider long? I flashed with CW 10 mins ago and am still getting a blank screen. Suggestions? Ohh and flashing on Perception build 4.
2 min max. Thats too long.
What ROM are you using? Did you have any other customizations installed?
I've installed each of these several times and never had this happen.
Perception build 4. I have tried unsuccessfully to flash anything through the ROM manager app. When I flash it just goes to a blank screen. Im going to try and flash by going into recovery mode and let you know the results.
Thanks
update: flashed through CW recovery mode and it went fine. For some reason I can't flash using the ROM manager app. Anyway great theme. Have you tried to flash the a transition over the theme?
Yeah, don't use ROM Manager. It isn't really necessary with the SetiroN i9000 kernels.
Flashing the transitions from DesignGear's thread over this theme, or others, will revert the taskbar and other items to the theme originally packaged with Perception. You will be left with an ugly hybrid.
The changes are in the framework-res\anim folder (XML) and are easy enough to incorporate. I have a build with the bounce method running right now, but it is a bit off-putting. Not sure I like it.
I have a android.policy.jar that enables TapLock for Perception as well. I will be integrating it in the next version. The lock screen will look just like the one in the Doc's ROM images above.
Awesome I really like the taplock better. when should we be expecting the next version, and will we be able to just flash over the current theme?
I'll up it now. I'm dorking around with SetiroN i9000 1.4 kernel, so I won't do much more with it until after the holiday.
It will have the Taplock and Flyin' animations.
How do you uninstall?
Looks great though!

Restore your backup from step 4.
I'm not sure it is customary to include method to revert, but I can work this out later.
If you ignored the red-highlighted step (wink-wink), uninstall Launcher Pro and try plasticdarlow's stock revert. You can delete the bootanimation.zip from system/media to get the creepy eyeball boot screen back. That will leave the HOSTS file which you can revert or leave alone.

You read my mind. I darkened it quite a bit, but the transparency makes it hard to read if the screen underneath is busy. I'll update it in the next revision.
Which battery are you guys using? Part of the reason I made this was to get the BlackBatt back. I loved it when I had an EVO and I haven't seen the detailed version in any other Captivate themes. It seems that the general public likes the circle batt's, so I added it.

i am trying the one you recommend (blackbatt). I usually like the "B" circle battery but i want to try your and see how i like it.
Where did you get the launcherpro tweaks? I am interested in seeing what the changes are.

Just flashed it and it is attractive. Thanks!
So I don't know whats going on and why I can't apply themes at all. I open Rom Manager and press Reboot into Recovery, which of course reboots me into CWM. I go through the options to find the zip file and click apply it. It says applying theme, but thats it then goes back to the normal menu and I do reboot and nothing...
Its not just this theme though, I have tried Dark Soul and others.. So something is going on with my phone. Am I doing everything correct?
EDIT.. Thats what I was doing wrong. I was using ROM manager to reboot into Clockwork Mod instead of just using the powerbutton option of reboot into Recovery.. Completely different menu when I do that and that worked.
Where do I get this Taplock everyone is talking about?
And what is the difference between Taplock and ASOP?

I linked the taplock file in the OP.
It is AOSP, and stands for the Android Open Source Project.

A Rolex Submariner Watch
This file will be installed through cmr. Once installed simply add a widget and select Clock (HTC). There are two versions installed as you scroll the options they will be clock 11/12 and 12/12
Although these clocks are accessed through the HTCClockWidget, the widget itself is not modified. The stock widget pulls images from /system/etc/clockwidget
If you like the clocks that are in those two slots currently, then don't install this as it will over-write them.

BIOS Boot Animation with sound
This has been floating around for a couple of years now so I take no credit for the original idea.
I simply edited all of the images to match the specs of the Thunderbolt.
When booting it has a sound of a hard drive starting up with beeps like an old PC.
This file greatly speeds up the boot proccess of the Thunderbolt as well!
The original file is about 3meg, this file is just over 1meg.
Animated gif preview:
The attached zip file is not a flashable zip, it contains the boot animation.zip and the mp3 sound file. Open the zip file and copy the bootanimation.zip and the FinalThunder.mp3 to your computer so that you can copy them to your phone.
Depending on the ROM you are using place the 2 files in the following directory on your phone. If you are unsure, just look in the directory and if it has bootanimation.zip and FinalThunder.mp3 then you are in the right place.
You may have to set permissions on both files to rw-r--r--
(You could also use adb to push the files to your phone if you would rather)
If you think you may want to revert, copy the originals somewhere on your SD Card first.

Boot Animation
This is the same boot animation as in 1.4 but where the 4GLTE fades in at the bottom with the lightning around it I changed it to BAMF.
When it fades out and comes back in it still says 4GLTE.
This is just one frame to give you the jist of things.
I think you will be pleasantly surprised by the results.
Download the file to your phone (make a backup copy in case you want to revert)
NOTE: rename the file to: bootanimation.zip
Move it to the appropriate place on your phone and set the permissions rw-r--r--
NOTE: in 1.4 the bootanimation.zip has been moved to:
/system/media
BAMF bootanimation
If you like it hit the thanks button!
----------------------------------------------------------
BAMF Boot Screens
This is not the boot animation, this is the first screen that shows up before the boot animation and when booting into cwm.
NOTE: If you flash this, restoring from a backup will not revert it, it is there to stay until you flash another boot image.
This is a flashable image, it has to be flashed via bootloader.
Download the file of your choice and rename it to PG05IMG.zip and place it in the root of your sdcard and reboot into bootloader.

As far as creating more...
I tried the easy way, I added a new folder "clock8" but no luck.
Since these clocks are all called from HTCclockwidget.apk, it would have to be something in the code in that file.
I personally didn't care for any of the clocks I replaced, and for that matter have never seen anyone run them.

First things first. Thanks to all my testers, you were a great help.
FOR INFECTED ROM USERS
This is currently for the Infected ROM Senseless w/ power control mod This will install the mod if you dont have it already. If you dont want the power control mods delete the services.jar and framework.jar from the system/framework folder using 7zip.
Also, this pushes the widget.txt file to system/customize. Virus didnt set this up in his set up. This file will change your controls to wifi:BT:data:flashlight:brightness:sound you can edit this file to change these, or delete it from the zip to keep your toggles.
For BAMF 1.6.3 users
this was built on top of 1.6.3 nte, should work on all. Only difference in the screenshots for this is the dialer has a white inner not black. Couldnt get the xmls to play nice for white text. If anyone knows of a dialer with white text for the .605 ruu let me know.
For Thundersense users
Confirmed working on 1.5. Download the Infected Rom version. Confirmed to work on thundersense. I dont know what affect changing the framework or htc.resources apks has. Do this at your own risk.
If your daring, go ahead and give it a shot on any other ROM. Inform me if it works I will add it here.
With that said and a few peoples hopes crushed, I present my new theme. Well not just mine, its a colab with Will Johnson who resides in the X forums still.
Whats themed:
also png optimized and zip aligned to prevent degraded performance
Framework -duh
htc.resources - (this file is the spawn of the devil!)

First boot up will take longer than usual. If it loops for more than 5 min do a battery pull and restart. This is built off Virus so no wipe should be needed. If it loops, you could try that and a reflash.
Still no go for me. I tried installing with Rom Manager this time (tried CWM last time) and I still don't have the phone app when it boots up. Not sure what's going on. Love everything else about the theme though. Great work.

Stupid me, I missed the part about it being for Senseless. I'm running the Sensed VirusROM, which must be why I was getting a bootloop.
Thanks for the help.

Can you add the circle battery indicator?
I can do an image swap but it wouldn't look right....
Probably won't have time to make a whole new set for a while.

[Mod] ☆Reel's Mods☆ - .zip and .qmg Boot / Shutdown anis, Icons and Themes (10/14/13)
This will be a collection of all the mods and hacks I come up with, rather than just posting in the forum for my current device. Some mods will be universal and some will be for specific devices and ROMs. I will label everything accordingly but that doesn't mean I assume ANY responsibility for what you do with my stuff. Each section has it's own instructions so read carefully. Always make a backup before modding anything.

Boot Animations
Only tested on Galaxy S3 and Note 2 (720x1280 @30fps unless otherwise specified.
Thanks to smokin1337 for Bootanimation4U!
Thanks to kevinrocksman for his Boot Ani Zip Enabler for Note 3
Boot Animations: Touchwiz or AOSP
Easy Install:
If you haven't enabled custom boot animations or it isn't already supported by your kernel;
Read and grab Bootanimation4U
Download XYZBootanimation.zip and rename to "bootanimation.zip"
Add bootanimation.zip to /system/media/ (for Touchwiz) OR /data/user/ or /data/local(for AOSP)
Flash Bootanimation4U.zip in recovery
Advanced Install:
Flash bootanimation4u.zip from recovery.
Reboot and install Boot Animations Root from the Play Store. It is also included in Rom Toolbox, if you already use it.
Go into the app's preferences and change install location to /system/media/ (for Touchwiz) OR /data/user/ or /data/local(for AOSP) and leave the default filename (bootanimation.zip) and go back to the main screen.
Select the Local tab, browse for the bootanimation file (No need to rename)and hit Install.
Tap the options key and select Preview current. Make sure you like it and reboot.
You can preview it before installing the animation if you buy the Pro version, but the preview quality is better if you install it first anyway.
If you need to resize a bootanimation for a different device's resolution follow my video guide here:
Samsung .qmg Boot Animations
The Galaxy Note 3, and I am assuming newer Samsung devices do not support bootanimation.zip files out of the box. Until we have a way to get that to work we are reliant on replacing bootsamsung.qmg with an edited version. This is an extremely limited way of getting it to work. It causes bootanimations not to run as smoothly as .zip format animations with optimized images. The Samsung Theme Designer app I use to make TW shutdown animations is not very good at compressing or optimizing images, which becomes more apparent the larger the animation resolution is. Ideally, you would want to use a centered small graphic with a black background to make it look as if it were truly fullscreen. Well it appears that Samsung threw yet another wrench into the gears and now it doesn't work that way anymore. When I try to use a non-fullscreen image it stretches it to fill the whole screen and that makes it look like poo-poo. It does not look anywhere near as fluid as the smaller "fake" fullscreen ones did on my Note 2.
Samsung Theme Designer also only lets me import up to 255 images, unlike the usual 300 I tend to use in a bootanimation.zip for 30fps. I am not sure if that results in a slightly shorter bootanimation or if it means that it uses the same duration but runs it at a slower framerate. <shrug> But it could explain the choppiness. It could also just be that .qmg animations are more resource heavy. I also still have to figure out which way it runs smoother; a native res 1080x1920 or 720x1280 and let the device do the upscaling. I dunno the recipe, I am just sayin'.
I have only tried converting a couple of my 720x1280 bootanimations and they worked, although they didn't come out great. This is going to be a learning experience for me until I figure out the optimal settings to make them run smoother. I am going to start converting some more of my older bootanimations to the .qmg format, as well as creating new ones.
Installation:
Download and rename XYZbootsamsung.qmg to bootsamsung.qmg and replace the one in /system/media.
Update:
Thanks to @kevinrocksman we now have .zip support for Note 3. Just flash one of his boot animations here to enable it and you can install any .zip bootani after that.
If you want to request anything just post a link or youtube video. Obviously 720p or better results in better bootanimations.

Make sure it's "shutdown.qmg" in all lower case letters and place it in the /system/media/video/shutdown directory. Try another one and let me know if it's the file itself, thanks.

Hey everyone!
NOTE: This was made for the Bamboo OnePlus One, exclusively. It may not gain as much popularity, but it was made to cater to those who have the Bamboo edition OnePlus One, or people with a Bamboo Styleswap and love using it.
This was designed to completely replace the Bamboo OnePlus One's boot animation, to create a more exclusive and unique boot animation. This is also to commemorate OnePlus' 1 year anniversary.
"竹智" is the term OnePlus uses to express "The spirit of bamboo lies within this phone". I tried to capture OnePlus' traditional motifs with the Chinese characters, as well as to capture ColorOS's round and puffy look on the loading animations to allow for a nice, sleek, dark boot animation.
This works on all CM11 and CM11S ROMs with theme engine. When CM12 Theme Engine is released, I will rework this boot animation for it.
WHAT THIS PACK INCLUDES
Splash Screen Replacement (Overwrites Red/White OnePlus logo with "Powered by Android")
Fastboot Logo
Boot Animation (Selectable in Theme Engine)
VIDEO
REQUIREMENTS
Unlocked Bootloader (For Splash Screen replacement and Fastboot logo)
ROM with CM11 Theme Engine (For Boot Animation)
Fastboot installed on your computer - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
INSTALLATION OF BOOT ANIMATION
Download the app from a Play Store link below.
Go to CM11's Theme Engine (On Mahdi it's called "Themes") in Settings then click on "Boot animations"
Scroll down to "Bamboo OnePlus BootAni" then tick "Boot Animation", then click Update.
INSTALLATION OF BOOT LOGO/SPLASH SCREEN (DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS ON CM12 ROMS, IT WILL BRICK YOU)
Reboot your phone into Fastboot mode (When fully turned off, hold down VOLUME UP + POWER until you see "Fastboot mode")
Place "logo.bin" into your fastboot folder (FOUND ON THE PLAY STORE LINK DESCRIPTION!)
In the fastboot folder, press Shift + Right click on a blank area. Click on "Open command window here"
Type fastboot flash LOGO logo.bin and press enter. After complete type in fastboot reboot
DOWNLOADS
Open up the description on the Play Store links to get the latest logo.bin files! Thanks!

I never planned for this to replace your stock Theme Engine boot animation, but do you plan to replace it on CM12 roms? If that's what you intend, I have one notice for you, there would be a "flash-to-black" part in the transition between the logo.bin and bootanimation.zip...this is due to CM12 commits and I can't control it.
I'll upload the zip in a bit.

Sweet, thank you!
I have tried to flash the boot animation on my One plus. As I do have a Bamboo cover. However, it does not seem to work on CM12 unofficial. Should it be able to flash on Android L. If not is there a way to do it. Thank you.

We have to wait for an update as OnePlus stupidly released their alpha version which broke tons of features including a modem and the boot partitions.
Thank you for the reply. I did look as some of the jpegs - nice. I would use it when possible.

Is there a special process when trying to add this bootanimation for Lollipop roms? I've tried it on a couple roms (aosp and cm12) but was a no go. I moved the zip like normal to the media folder, changed the name, set permissions and rebooted.
