[BOOT ANIMATION] 1up CM7 Gigglebread - Android Themes

One day fitsnugly told me: I have an idea…
This is the video of the PNG sequence
Files can be found here or fitsnugly threads here:
[GIGGLEBREAD][CM7][N1] Stan's Previously-Owned Coffins (06232011-0844)
[GIGGLEBREAD][CM7][G2X] Look behind you! A three-headed monkey! (06232011-0803)
Animation is also available as a Live Wallpaper in my apk here
Hope you like it. If so, use thank button or donation (I'll appreciate it. LOL)

hi, this is really cool. unfortunately, it really bugs my LG Optimus up after booting. Gmail will continue to force close and it takes my apps a lot longer to load. i installed the bootanimation thru Terminal Emulator. do you have any tips? did i do something wrong? how can i reverse it and go back to the standard boot animation?
thanks!

I'm sorry but the boot animation has nothing to do with the issues you are having now. It's only a sequence of png files to be loaded during boot.
Boot animation should go in system/media or data/local if you want it to survive to further rom updates.
If you wanna go back to stock boot, download again the zip of your rom and copy bootanimation.zip from there.
I'm positive that your issues are not related to the zip file. Trust me I made tons of boot.

awesome...

FYI after deleting this file, my phone now starts up correctly and my apps don't all force close. no other settings were changed before or after i downloaded the file.
maybe it's just not compatible with the LG Optimus V?

well, i don't know
it works on all phones as long as they are 800x480
if you want, ask on lg thread and report. I will appreciated.
thanks

R2D2 boot animation

Im a Huge star wars fan and i would love to have this leaked boot animation ported to my vogue if anyone is willing to help me out i would be very grateful
i wish i know how to do it myself
for those that want the androidupdate i put one together the link is below http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DJV03Z6M
i have tested this on my own vogue and it works great
thank you Kallt_Kaffe for the resizing
here is the links to droidlife
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/09/08/download-official-r2-d2-droid-2-boot-animation/
and there are also leaked live wallpapers for anyone who wants them
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/09/08/download-leaked-r2-d2-live-wallpapers/
I'll have a look at the bootanimation. I have the resizing tools needed so it's usually a few commands at the command line.
Here you go... not tested though... resized to 240x427 then cropped to 240x320.
EDIT: Tested it on my QVGA Huawei U8100 and it worked just fine so it should work OK.
SWEET!!! thanks to you both

I was try to make my own bootanimation for my own device. But it won't load during booting. Is there any compression or encryption method should i use when re package it to zip file ?

It's an uncompressed zip. More like an archive.
Thank you, I will try again later.

if you use the update file i posted then put it on your sd card in the andboot file
then reset your phone and when you power on hold down the volume or d pad center
that will take you to the installer
from there pick number 4 install update
let it install
when its done you will be back at the install menu
then pick number 10
the phone will boot up and you should see the new boot animations
enjoy

[FUN] Random Boot Animations

Introduction
Okay, so there are lots of good boot animations out there but you can only choose one? Not good enough I say!
So, here I provide a script that will allow you to have multiple boot animations that are randomly selected each time you boot you phone!
This script was originally provided by Nighthound here many moons ago but I've since adapted it to my Nexus One ROM (Kang-o-rama) and now for the LG Star.
This version should be compatible with *all* custom ROM's LG P990, P999 as well as other manufactures and ROM's with init.d support.​Installation
It's pretty simple to install and very little configuration is required. Simply download the attached .zip file, install it from recovery and you're all set!
Download zip file below
Install zip from SD Card in recovery
Copy any boot animation .zip you want to use to /data/local/bootanimations/
Give each boot animation .zip file a unique name!
Reboot and enjoy
Hit 'Thanks' below
The 'bootanimations' directory will be created for you the first time you boot after applying this update zip and then you can download any suitable boot animation you want at any time and just place it in /data/local/bootanimations/ (make sure it is not called 'bootanimation.zip' to avoid conflicts). Easy as pie.​Animation Authors
To help our user community I have two suggestions:
Please let users know in your thread of this script; and,
Put a note in about unique file names so users don't get confused
Have fun kids and don't run with scissors, be safe...
haha nice! I'll check it out in a few! Thanks for the effort tho!
edit:
Ok installed it and installed some boot animations i like and it works like a charm thanks!
Thank you! Like custom bootanimations, so this is something I can use!
ARGHHHH, what files does this replace as after installing this my phone just reboots just after the lock screen shows.
Although it does show me MANY random bootscreen now.
i've placed over 10 bootanims, everything is working as is should be
thnx m8

It just adds one file called 10bootanimations to /system/etc/init.d/ - you can of course remove this if you like.
It won't actually show *any* random boot animations until you add them so I'm not sure I've understood your problem correctly.
I'm trying to using this on my LG G2x running CM7 and nothing happens ... I've copied a few bootanimations to data/local/bootanimations ... and nothing at all
I've confirmed that the file got flashed to system/etc/init.d ... is there a way i can confirm if it is actually running etc?
Another thing of importance perhaps, the first time i rebooted after flashing the attached zip through recovery, it didn't create the folder at data/local/bootanimations like the script says it should ...
any thoughts?
Nice little tool, thx.

I'm not sure, is the CM7 processing init.d? Logcat at boot will tell you, the script should launch very early in the boot process and will write to the main log.

I think you're right because on the logcat, there is no mention of randombootanimations ... no one over at cyanogenmod answered when i asked if it was a bug that init.d wasn't being processed ...
anywyas, i'll keep this and keep giving it a shot and eventually it will work

(Update 12/22/11) [Bootanimation/Splash] Lightning Vortex w/ animated HTC splash

Hey XDA, been away for a while and just finished my first semester of college. Checked up on my old thread to find alot of positive things. A while back I wanted to do more with this and never got around to it, but figured it was about time I did...
The new animation starts somewhat similarly to the old one with added transition between the HTC logo and the vortex. Also after the vortex, instead of a static image at the end I've thrown together a completely new piece that will loop until the phone finally decides to start.
This version also uses JPGs rather than PNGs. I just found out JPGs could be used the other day... After optimizing the PNGs, (something that wasn't considered for the old one) this new one comes out to a total of 234MB... (one of those things that happen when you only use AfterFX for the project...) If anyone would like this anyway... Let me know and I'll put it up somewhere.
I also made a basic splash screen, something that was misadvertised with the old version. It is the first image in the attachments and can be installed thru bootloader. (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?37e8as4f4m68cwu)
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?w1ci9p2ugk7271d
If you would like the stock sound to use with this download it from the attachments below, extract the mp3 and add it to /system/media.
GIFs were 4-5MB each so heres a video instead...
Old version has been moved to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20568970 if anyone wants to check it out.
Thanks for the link, and if you get a chance to try it out let me know how you like it
This is [email protected]$$! Way better then the stock bootanimation
Great work!

How to I install this? HBoot or Recovery? I know sometimes you need to rename it to the PG0059 thing (I know it's not right) and I'm just curious before I go screwing anything up

I personally used clockwork recovery and did install sdcard/update.zip
Place the update.zip from the download onto the root of the sd card, then in ROM manager, reboot into recovery and install the update.
There are alternatives to this such as just putting the bootanimation.zip into the right folder using root explorer, but I ran into permission problems so I did it this way.
If you have any other questions feel free to ask.

Thanks alot bud! Thats what I thaught but I figured I would ask before doing anything. Looks sick- thanks for posting!
EDIT: Just flashed it and it looks amazing! Definitley a keeper! I like how fast it spells "quietly brilliant" (I hate slow screens) and the animations on the boot animation is just plain awesome. ++++1
DUDE this is sweeet! Thanks!
Glad you guys like it. Are you using the stock sound with it. Seems like it would work good with this, but I lost it when I flashed to the ROM I'm on >.>
yes stock sound and it is perfect!

Is this new boot animation really 24MB? Like, I yanked it out of the update .zip because I normally move them with Root Explorer. I find easier, and I have a system to doing this where I save the old ones in the folder and just rename them. Allowing me to swap them out at will by simply altering the name of the bootanimation . zip back to that.
-Edit- NVM. I see why it's 24MB now.
Holy effing sh!t cakes! That's a lot of graphical content to run through there in the beginning. Looks awesome though!
Again, just to anyone reading this that hasn't tried this boot animation yet.
THIS BOOT ANIMATION IS AWESOME!

Glad you like it. I would have done the same using root explorer, but I ran into read only and permission problems for anything i tried to use it with. And I really tryed to lower the size the best I could... It was originally 165mb, then found out it was rendering w/o compression (lossless), changed render settings managed to get to 95mb... to get it to 24mb I lowered the quality a little more and it skips every other frame. After uploading it I attempted to make it smaller but all i can do is lower the quality even more, and at 17mb it looked pretty bad.
PS- could someone link me to the stock FinalThunder.mp3 I haven't had it since I flashed my ROM

No I wasn't *****ing about the size. I was checking to make sure I didn't bork something up extracting it. I was just verifying as most of them are 2-6MB.
Here's the Final Thunder .mp3
I ripped it right from the system folder with RE so it should be good. Make sure you check the permissions though. As they may need to be altered to get it to jive with the way it gets read. It should be;
X-X-[0]
X-[0]-[0]
X-[0]-[0]
I think.
X meaning checked.
I had to rar it to post it.
Edit: Yes, that's the way the permissions need to be above, but when it gets extracted it changes them to;
[0]-[0]-[0]
X-X-X
X-[0]-X
So if you just drop it in there it probably WON'T WORK. Make sure you change the permissions!
Again, thanks for the awesome boot animation!
Thanks, I just now noticed the mount r/w button at the top of root explorer >.>
I also did all of this before I saw the post edit, so I did just throw it in there, but it still worked =o
Now I can see the bootscreen everyones been thanking me for lol... Thanks again for the sound clip =)

Hardly a fair trade for the kick ass boot animation. But no problem.
Yeah, many moons ago RE owned me until I found that little mount r/w button. After finding it however it's been an extremely useful tool.
I'm surprised the MP3 worked for you actually w/o changing permissions. :shrugs: I'm leaving the warning there in case someone else downloads it for the same purpose and it doesn't.
Which file or folder do i drop this into to make sound work. I am on gingeritis and had to delete the VZW_bootanimation and there is no sound once i swapped that boot animation out with this one?

It's either system/media
or
system/customize/resource
But I think it's system/media
Find the bootanimation .zip and that's where the sound file should go.
I tried putting it system/customize/resource and that didnt do anything so i will try system media I guess just put in the main file or any one of the sbu files I have
audio
GPU
weather
folders in there will try a few i guess?

If anyone wants to try this, it is a zip of the vortex boot animation hopefully with the sound. It is for anyone running a rom that has a boot animation in the system/customize/resource folder and the boot animation is labeled VZW_bootanimation.
Let me know how it goes please
My apologies if the OP does not want this and will take down if asked
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9663029/VortexBootAnimation.zip
I got the animation to work, but no thunder. Tried everything! I think it may be my current set up (gingeritits and imosyons 2.5.4.test.4 kernel) since day one, there's been no sound. It came with the old school PC looking bootanimation and I read somewhere that, that boot ani is supposed to sound like a disc drive spooling up with clicks n what not, but it never did. I remember on the virus Rom I had, it DID have sound and the .mp3 was called VRsound.mp3. I made my own, fixed permissions, renamed it to VRsound.mp3 and replaced it. That worked. I could be wrong, but because this ROM didn't come with sound in the first place, I just can't get it.... Oh well. Still a tight boot! sound or not!

[Q] Custom boot animation...

First off, thanks to everyone for helping make the Nook Color such a vibrant community. There's a wealth of information here and I'm really grateful for it. I love the NC and it's great that we can unlock its full Android potential thanks to the hard work of the folks here... both the people that make the tools, and the people that help support it.
I am curious to know if anyone out there has some custom boot animations that aren't so flashy. Both the wife (who also rooted her NC) and I suffer from migraines, and the bootup sequence can be really painful with the bright flashing colors. Something a little more subdued would be preferable.
I'm also not sure if I can run a custom boot animation on the NC without using Cyanogen? I've upgraded to 1.4.1 today (which promptly went into a boot loop which MN 4.6.16 didn't solve, so I reverted to 1.2 and then went back to 1.4.1 and got it re-rooted with MN 5.12.20 properly... thanks again for all the info here!), so I'm just using a rooted stock system. I searched for boot animations on the forum but most of the results were pages of people mentioning which animation they got stuck on while trying to root
Also, does anyone know anything about NookDevs.com going dark? Their site just shows a blank HTML page and any old links give a 404. It's a pity, because their wiki was a bit more in-depth than the NC wiki here.

I'm also not a fan of the early MN startup screens, but there's an easy fix (see below).

Yes, you can. MN changes it on B&N firmware.
If you've already over-written the boot animation by running MN, you'll need to find a replacement somewhere. Not sure how to do that. However, if you either haven't replaced it yet or are willing to do a factory reset, you can tweak the ManualNooter scripts. If you open the MN .zip file, go into /META-INF/com/google/android/ and edit the updater-script file with a text editor. Look for the 3 lines that begin with "ui_print("Installing Boot Animation...");" and comment them out by putting '#' characters at the start of each line. There are 3 lines in 5.12.20. Write the modified version to that same location, and then run it to (re)root your unit.
Alternately, you could modify /data/local/bootanimation.zip in manualnooter-5.12.20.zip. Hack down the updater-script, and you can have it install ONLY the boot animation if you want to try a few variations.
Finally, if you've already rooted, you could try plugging a replacement in to /data/local/bootanimation.zip directly. No guarantees on this one, though.

I just finished getting everything set back up (I hit a setting page that did a reset on my unit... not so happy. Running Titanium Backup now...), so I'm not really keen on re-running MN. I'd rather just tweak what needs to be done, as things seem to be a little bit fragile and breaking things requires a lot of time to get back up and running.
Alternately, you could modify /data/local/bootanimation.zip in manualnooter-5.12.20.zip. Hack down the updater-script, and you can have it install ONLY the boot animation if you want to try a few variations.

Does MN override the bootanimation binary to support /data/local, or does bootanimation support that location directly? I did some searching and it looks like some people are patching the binary so it works with more standard Android boot animations and it was unclear to me if the /data/local path was part of that customization as well or not.
Also, I was in part posting to see if anyone had any recommendations for the animations themselves. Graphics work is definitely not my forte, I'm more of a server guy

No need to go through all of that trouble. If you don’t like the boot animation in MN, simply go to /data/local, and delete or rename bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip.old, this will take you back to the factory boot animation.
The NC will work with any boot animation you can think of, you just need to follow a few basic rules. The rules are outline at nookdevs.com, Link, the site is down at this time, so here is a link for the cached site, Link.
If you are going to take a boot animation from another device, or from online, and edit it for the NC, the most important step is to NOT use any compression when you zip it back up. You can screw-up almost every other step, and still have a working boot animation, but if you compress the zip, it will not work at all.
CM 7.1.0-encore note
FYI: After putting CM 7.1.0-encore on my NC (and then wanting to change the boot animation), I discovered that the path is: /system/media/bootanimation.zip
Awesome. thanks for the info. Starting to build my own intro...

[Q] what am i doing wrong changing file permissions etc.

I want to further u dressed what I'm doing wrong in changing lock.ogg and other sound and animation files. I understand that the qmg files are made in a way to make it more difficult to change but I'm doing something wrong. Even completely deleting the stock mini loop animations with my root browser has No effect. They aren't their but they continue play on every boot. I recently flashed a lollipop animation that is working but upon looking at the way the the files were done using .Baker did not work for me. I just want to understand what exactly I'm doing wrong. Existing file rename with .bak place new file in required location renaming to Samsung miniloop etc. Change permissions to match making sure the root browser is in r/w. AND NOTHING.... I really want to understand r/w and later decompose/recompile but this first hurdle with file changing is really messing with me. Any help is appreciated

I tried deleting them altogether and they still play. And this really isn't matter of just having a custom boot animation because I can easily flash a zip file but I want to do it myself. Is it really necessary to use the Samsung theme to recreate a working animation for my phone

I would recommend downloading a boot animation that works on this phone and see what files you have to modify. I know for sound it is 3 of them.

I did with a custom matrix boot animation and went and looked at all the files and tried my best to recreate what had already been done but all it did was take the animation away completely and put me in bootloop

Link me to this and I will see what is up. I know of only one boot animation that was made for this phone. I could be wrong but let's check

All of the boot animations and the certain shutdown animation work flawlessly on my sm-n910t running on hyperdrive RLS3. I used that lollipop animation until I found these it was jumpy but better than stock

If these work what is it that you are trying to do? I think I missed something.

In the original post I inquired on what issue I'm having with moving/changing/renaming files and their permissions. I have tried everything I have seen on the the forums ie. Renaming original ending with .bak placing new file within the directory and renaming to match the original file. Changing permissions then reboot into recovery. Wipe dalvik and cache (even tried not wiping) reboot system anf either nothing at all or the original samsung boot. Ive tried boot animation changer and six different types of file explorers (2 paid versions) hours and hours of youtube videos and thread after thread to find my solution. I see that qmg files most likely can only be exchanged with qmg files created via samsung themer. Im currently using an sm-n910t on the hyperdrive rls3 rom and just recently flashed the bioshovk kernel in the hopes that it would support .zip boot animations but it doesnt quite work like that. I tried the starkissed kernel and the nadia kernel to end in softbrick. I am extremely interested in all of these things and eagerly look forward to decompile/recompile but as it stands im stuck at unchangable boots lol. Im really hoping to see possibly a video of the changes being done on an actual note 4 not an s5 or anything else. As always any info is greatly appreciated
