[Bootscreen] Android Supernova for Hero

Ported apoth's Supernova bootscreen for G1 to G2/Hero format simply because I liked it, and it's a cinch to do as it turns out. The file attached to this post is a signed update zip.
Graphics used with permission from apoth - see this thread for the original G1 version.
adb push bootscreen_Supernova_noSound_signed.zip /sdcard or manually copy to root of SDcard
Flash zip through recovery rom
(alternatively flash zip through DroidExplorer - never tried that myself though)

I initially tried with a higher frame delay (slower moving "supernova"), but to me, it just looked, for lack of a better word, "stuttery".

Its not working on Villain 4.0 beta2

look great... will try it

Not working on the New legendary rom 1.3.5

thanks its pretty cool

This is my favorite bootscreen and believe me, I've tried them all!

Hey Everyone
I was having the same problem with the bootimage not loading. A member (papa smurf) was able to help me out. Here is his email (the bootimage is now loading fine):
yeah man thats an easy fix.
if you know how to use adb inside of command promt then hook up phone to computer and make sure it is on sync and debug is on then type this in the comand promt of your computer. to get to command promt go to the start button and type in cmd.
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
adb remount
adb shell rm -r /system/media/bootanimation.zip
adb shell rm -r /system/media/bootscreen
then you can restart your phone.​
Note you could just do:
adb remount
adb shell
su (not sure if you need the su command here or not I usually just enter it any ways all the time)
rm -r /system/media/bootanimation.zip
rm -r /system/media/bootscreen
After those two files have been removed make copy the new bootimage zip file to the flash drive, reboot into revovery menu, flash from zip

(Thanks to Jerry43812!)
1. Download the ZIP of the boot animation you would like to apply to your phone.
* For the first boot animation (with green flare, do not unzip the file. Just move it to your tools folder.
* For the second or third boot animations, please unzip the file you download from here, resulting with a folder with another ZIP - inside, called bootanimation.zip. Please move that bootanimation.zip to your Android-(SDK)-Tool-Folder
2. Open up a command prompt, and head into your local tools folder.
cd C:\Android\tools
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(Or whatever folder you choosed for Android Tools)
3. Now, enter the following commands, one line at a time.
adb remount
adb mv
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/bootanimation.zip
adb reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now when your phone begins to reboot, it should be using the new boot animation you just applied to your phone. Note that if this does not work on your phone, please use the following commands:
cd C:\Android\tools
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/media/bootanimation.zip
adb reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This block of commands will remove the bootanimation.zip file that we just wrote, hopefully leaving you with the old animation you had, before. I just tested all of these commands an they do indeed work, on my CDMA HTC Hero running RegawMod 2.1t.
For VillainRom 10.3.x Users:
You have to push it to /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip to make it work!
---------------------------
One IMPORTANT Thing:
I don't want anyone to mirror the animations or to post them in another Forum without my permission!!
I'll always keep them uploaded so you can download them here anytime!

[Reserved for later use]

I like a lot. I'm going to use, but I would like more without the last spotlight. Just for my taste,
Good job!!

I'm glad to hear you like it!
I just made one without the spotlight:
[See it in the first Post]
Is it better?
I'll put the other bootanimation folder as an attachment to the first post!

I made the spotlight in cyan and added the spinning circle of the cyanogen mod.

Really nice work !

Definitely adding this to EzHero!

fullscreen?
the cyan one looks great keep up the good work..but is it possible you could make them both fullscreen for the nexus? thanks in advance

bonkasnucca, open the zip file and edit the desc.txt for the dimensions of the nexus, push it back to the phone and you'll have it f/s.

Sorry for the newb question. I'm new to HTC and Android OS (ex iPhone user never going back..hehe). Do I need to be rooted to install this? I'm currently rooted with Unrevoked. Any details on how to install would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm wondering this too. He means how could one go about making their own? I don't want a photoshop / after effects / fireworks or whatever tutorial. But what kind of file (animated gif / video?) and how to package it?
It looks great by the way, thanks!

Cool. Will it say Eris when loaded on the Eris or is that just a generic n1 boot?
Sent from my Froyo Eris

I dont remember exactly what it says but it doesnt say Nexus one it says every detail about our phone its quite cool

Awesome, I'm on it! Thanks
Sent from my Froyo Eris

Badass.

I tried putting this in my ROM, didn't work. All I get is a black/blank boot. I am going to try a few things to get it working.

It worked on my eris with plain jane. Actually on boot it says htc hero.

Its not actually reading phone info, its just an animated Gif image. Which ever one you download it'll display whatever info is put into it, usually based on different devices. There isn't one for the Eris yet, but the hero has the screen dimensions. That's why it works.
Sent from my Eris using XDA App

anyone getting luck with KaosFroyo and this boot? Love the classic look. Also is there any posts for getting the standard boot animation back? Just in case I go ***** at Verizon one day

I've never had any problems with boot screens on KaosFroyo.
put bootanimation.zip in your tools folder.
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media
to check to see if it worked
adb shell bootanimation
use ctrl^C to end

sorry i forgot to include the remount line first.
adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media
(you'll see some information about file sized pushed if it worked)
adb shell bootanimation
(to check install)
ctrl^C
don't know why it wouldn't run your boot animation. Use root explorer to look in your system/media folder and make sure you've got bootanimation.zip in the folder (and only one copy of it).
From looking around xda forums, I've seen comments about boot animation in data/local but I've always placed mine in system/media when I've used kaosfroyo or any other froyo based rom.

I really like this a lot.
So much so that I have been working on modifying it for the eris.
Does anyone know any specifics of what the png files need to be?
I created mine in photoshop 7, saved each one as png files and named them in numerical order, but I just get a blank black screen. (I also made sure they were 320x480)
Do they have to be a certain color depth?

no clue, but i want one updated for my eris in the worst way. also, maybe make the font a tad bigger so it's easier to read? idk if this is possible without having the text cut off or wrap or something...but i'm willing to help if there's anything i can do.

eris animation
I figured out what the problem was... I wasn't saving the zip correctly
You have to create a zip with no compression ("store" in 7zip)
If you want to make your own changes, I have attached the psd file I used in addition to the bootanimation.zip (which is ready to be uploaded to your eris)
My photoshop skills suck so don't laugh too hard.
Also note that the animated gif below only shows the part that I modified, but the bootanimation.zip contains the full sequence.

Hmm seems like I'll have to modify it to show V27. Other then that great work!

For anyone on KaosFroyo heres the fixed Bios boostscreen for ya.
It can be found in this topic. Big kudos to sobsmb for taking the time to fix it.

[BOOT ANIMATION] Vaudeville Android - with Preview

I posted this over in the Vibrant forum, but wanted to share it with all of you. I have one other that I posted there that I'm redoing to include a shutdown animation as well. Let me know what you all think of this!
The zip is flashable through CWM on at least galaxy s phones and a mt4g, so I imagine it works on others, too.
Credit to jlbmgrnr for collaboration on the idea and packaging it.
- Standard disclaimer about me not being responsible for phones getting messed up goes here -
file: dancing-boot-anim.zip is just the dancing, without the fake apple bootscreen.
file: bootanim-dancing-edify.zip is flashable with CWM3

I love the vaudeville green man. Can you put up a version without the -unqualifiable- apple?
In 2011, it's not as if we still have fight to get the green man a seat at the table.

awesome boot animation man. already installed it to my HTC Desire HD. good thing it's 480-800 resolution by default. i thought i would spice it up by adding my own custom sound mp3 to go along with it. sound file link at the bottom of this post.for those with a DHD you can push the files through AndroidSDK adb with the following commands. for this instance i am using the rom LeeDROID 2.2.2. connect your dhd to your computer and make sure it is set to charge only and make sure debugging is set to on.
first download vaderville-boot-anim.zip and extract the contents to a folder on your computer. first go to system folder and then media folder and find the bootanimation.zip file. copy and paste the bootanimation.zip into the same folder where your adb.exe is located which is usually program files\android\android-sdk\platform-tools\. open up adb through your cmd prompt and execute the following commands to load the new boot animation.
adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
also extract and put the android_audio.mp3 file into the same folder as adb so type:
adb push android_audio.mp3 /data/local
now we test everything out by rebooting
adb reboot
if everything goes well, your dhd will reboot and play the awesome boot animation along with the "new york, new york" song by frank sinatra minus the voice. this tutorial can be applied to any android phone provided you know where your rom stores it's boot animation file and sound file.
thermanlee maybe you can ask jlbmgrnr to add this sound file to the package so it can be flashed through cwm. in the bootanimation.zip you can open up the desc.txt and change the resolution to fit your android phone and then save and flash it. enjoy

Awesome
Can has MDPI version pweez?

nice!!! good work mate...

Awesome! One of the things we were going to do is add sound, but we weren't sure how. Thanks for the heads up. I'll let him know if he hasn't already read this.

It may not, and I didn't even think about that. I'll look around tonight and see what I need to set up differently for CWM 3, and I'll repackage it if I find any info.

OK, here's the CWM3 version. It installed successfully on my phone with CWM2.5, so I believe you should have no problem. Let me know how it works out, and if it goes well then I'm 100% Edify from now on.

[BOOT ANIMATION] Retro TV Test Pattern

This is my first boot animation. It's pretty simple, at only 15 frames. It's based on the RCA "Indian Head" test pattern card that was displayed on televisions pre 1970's while the networks were off the air. It's a bit before many of our times, but if you've played Fallout, Bioshock, or Black Ops, you've probably seen it.

What are the permissions set at?
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk

I assume you mean in the attributes.
In that case, read-only is un checked.

What did you use to put the bootanimation in the system/media folder? I use root explorer and long press on the bootanimation and select permissions and you want the boxes to look like this
[X] [X] [ ]
[X] [ ] [ ]
[X] [ ] [ ]
The x meaning checked. That's how mine works.

There could also be a problem with how your zipping it. I'm not sure how exactly to do it but its a possibility.

Ok. Trying that now...

Permissions wasn't the problem.
I'm zipping it with WinRar. I have winzip, but the evaluation period expired a looong time ago, so it takes ages to get the program up and running.

Hmmmm. When you zip the part0 and the desc.txt, are you compressing using "store" instead of something elce?

try 'store.' that might be the problem.

Also, the XBOX 360 one sounds awesome!
XBOX....X is for XOOOOOM!

Before I try this I have a question.. I'm not rooted so I'll just push it, but there's any way to go back to the original one, cuz if you're rooted, just rename the original.
So can I go back to original of not rooted..?
Thanks.
