I watched a video on youtube where a guy had a scene from the Iron Man movie as his boot screen on the nexus one. So, I decided to make me a animated boot screen. My question is can I make a .wmv my bootanimation, and if so then how. I've seen the bootanimations posted on this site, I just want something unique. I've had custom boot screens on both of my G1's and customized my recovery image, so I know how to do it for the G1, but I want to put my movie clip on my nexus as the bootanimation. Please some real advise, no theories.
Search. There is PLENTY of information here about how to do it and what needs to be done.

Obviously I'm not finding it, and obviously you don't know. I did'nt just join this forum. This the first time I ever asked for help, for some smuck to tell me search, who could've at least posted a link to the thread. I should've put no comments from smartasses either.
bootanimation.zip contains a sequence of PNG files. No .WMV or anything else.
Found in /system/media, or sometimes in /data/media.

Thanks a bunch though, but I already been to both places, before I posted thread, I was trying to avoid creating a bunch of png's, very time consuming, and figured I'd simplify the process. What I should've asked was can I convert wmv file into a series of png files, and if so what tool do I need. Dude had a cut from Iron Man, so I know it can be done, I just need somebody who's done it to view this thread.
Use some type of video editing program to split it into separate png files.
You could use a video editing program to export the WMV clip you have into a sequence of PNGs.
Try VirtualDub. It's free.

Hi guys i looked at the forums and noticed not alot of custom boot animations going on.Anyways for all you Alienware lovers out there i've got 2 i've been messing around with to make work smooth. These are from the Aurura (my baby) screensaver so if you want to use then or if you have any idea's for different ones hit me up.I'll be posting them as soon as i'm sure they are done.
edit- Ok first one is done, Speed could very based on rom.
Link- http://www.megaupload.com/?d=C3AI4508
YouTube link- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mJMRhX12zU <<not mine>>
Sorry if i'm breaking a site rule by posting a link please remove if i am, and guide me on how to share.
edit- Ok got the second done.Had to shorten it a bit and it decided to loop at the end...Left it because it looks cool.

Instruction simply save this Bootanimation.zip to sdcard open root explorer and past it in /system/media (backup yours if you want) also if nothing is there check /data/local Android checks there first, Good luck and i hope you enjoy please post a video so others can see. I'll have the other up soon.
As of now i will no longer be continuing this, as i'm going to be leaveing XDA for some personal reasons ty all for your replies and i will be leaving this download up.As of now there are many other guides to making Bootanimations so Good luck all
well 79 Views and nobody replying lol, hope we got some takers on this.

This should really be in the General section. Thank you for your contribution though!
if we can get an admin to move it that's no problem...the second bootanimation is turning out to be a pain lol.I'll get it
I'll give it a whirl.
EDIT: I like the second one best, the darker one. I just wish that the loop would've been the alien's head. Also, I think it looks crisper that the first one.
I enjoy both, but would prefer either to be without the Alienware text. Good god though.
As of 3-22
Download links still are only giving me 25k files when I try to dl. Videos look awesome and would love to get your boot animation into my Gtab.
Also is this sticky for posting other boot animations as well?
I still have the second one running so I shot a quick video. (New phone I need mmm.)

been busy for a few days on themeing the new TwoTapsX rom sorry guys any issues with the animations. i need to get back to work on them.Check out my theme (xoom like) i'll post in a min.

Thanks man! These are great.
Maybe post a guide on how to make one so others can contribute?
I will have to sit back and work on the Guide.. Personally i'm not the best at spelling or writing things out in (Guide format) But i'll see what i can write up (TY MS. kicker22004 lol) and i'll definitely be posting it...and if anything someone can find a faster way to do these.Believe me it takes forever on the Gtab i'm having to cut frames down because of the fast boot, on my X i can get 18-20 sec of video+audio <<<another thing i'm trying to figure out.Anyone know if the Xoom or another Tab has boot audio? Ok guys peicing my new Desktop together (Orange juice accident) but i'll be posting a new 2nd video without the loop or text as requested.If you would like the text encluded please send me a PM and i'll see what i can do.Thanks for being pasent with me these do take a bit of time to make. Also taking requests if anyone has any short Videos (quite short say 7-10 sec sometimes longer depending on rom) you would like to see converted over for animations please post and give me a little time don't think i forgot about you.
great i would like to know how to do this also but this is great work using the second on myself
Can anyone please tell me where to get this boot animation?

Wow i'm surprissed to see posts on this agian lol. I've been super busy areound here guys (Moving) I was actually about to remove the thread.
As for making them it's not really that hard.
Take a video for example......Clip off about 12-18 sec
-Reseze the video to 1024x600 (that can vary smaller is faster depending on size but you lose Quality)
-then take that new video and put it in a Avi-jpeg Converter and pull out all the Frames.
-from there you will just put them in a folder (part0)
-and then edit the Desc.txt file to resize to fullscreen and change FPS
-Layout of the Desc.txt should be
1024 600 X<<(X is the FPS faster if it's laggy)
p 1 0 part0
- p <unknown
- 1 <play the video 1 time
- 0 <Delay before moving to Part1 if there is a part 1
- part0 <the folder to Play
you can use any number of programes to do this it's very simple.
Then just zip it all up and if you use winrar remember to set it to STORE or it won't boot the video.
Then just move it to the Dir either /system/media Or /data/local
That's it, Sorry i'm not even close to good at writing Guides guys.
If anyone would like to rewrite this go right ahead and then hopefully we can get this Stuck and get more great animations.
When i get time to work on this agian i'm going to be tring to get boot sound while it's loading the video. Thanks agian guys and good luck making some Please post them in this thread so we don't have a million different threads

I appreciate your respecting my searching/time by mashing on the thanks button
There are some pretty cool boot animations in this section but they are buried. I wish I knew who the moderator of this specific forum was because I know there is a post with at least 10 boot animations in it that should have been stuckyed. Ones like the Droid red eye and the dancing android. You can find them with a deep search.... maybe I will take the time this weekend to link the posts to the current sticky.
i'd like to know how to make them as well. thanks!
I am kinda confused as to where to put the new boot animation.zip as i dont see any on there now in data/local or system/media?
Ok well it looks like you have to put in the logodata file as well as system/media and the data/local file for it to work

Can you elaborate on this? I have been trying to add a Boot Animation to VEGAn 5.
I downloaded the custom one for Ginger Edition and edited it to make it shorter (so it only flashes up Vegan) but when I save it all as the zip and place it in system/media and reboot, no boot animation shows. Just a black screen.
The tablet still boots, but neither the original Vegan boot nor the custom one shows.
Anyone ideas???
DISCLAIMER!
I DID NOT BREAK YOUR PHONE. You did. You chose to flash this. You chose to read this. You chose to follow my instructions. Erego, You broke your phone. Why? Because you chose to skip ahead a step, not read correctly or maybe even ignore a step altogether. When it all boils down to it, I am not liable for any of the mistakes you make, break or fake to get you a new phone. All i can say is, if you come at me with allegations and grief, you will get nothing but laughter.
On that note, i recommend buying phones from Best Buy and pre-paying for Black Tie Protection. They replace phones that have been bricked or whatever...even if you caused it or flashed something wrong...they have even replaces 3 of my Thunderbolts during trial and error tests.
I have made a couple boot animations for now. I always do my best to make them high quality and work properly.
If there is something i cannot do, I will tell you! Otherwise, take a look at some of the stuff ive made, submit a request for what you'd like, and ill see what i can do!
And of course, you can feel free to use the ones ive made! Just show thanks and let them know who made it!
Note: I do not know how to upload these animations in the form of a .gif to display them. If you know how, please let me know via PM or something. Also, if the links do not work for downloading from this/these descriptions, i will always attempt to include them in new posts or at the bottom.

hi I appreciate you offering to put together some custom boot animations. I feel like a very good one would be the .gif of Sam Jackson just staring at you from the movie "black snake moan" shouldn't be too many frames to do either. If you know how to do the sound you could have Sam's. "say what one more time"
let me know what you think.
thanks.
Are you only making boot animations out of videos, or are you able to make custom ones from scratch?
Would love to see a gears of war one similar to the epic 4G one... I've tried to use and no avail with sound would be cool too.

For now, Only out of videos. I am reading up a little bit during my free time on how to use Adobe after effects and stuff. Ill announce when i feel comfortable enough to make some from scratch. Though i am certain those would be VERY much harder, longer and tedious to make and perfect correctly.

Ill get on it. Though the sound doesn't really have much to do with that part...maybe like crickets or something, since he's giving the "not amused" stare.
Here's a Link to Android central where I found the boot maybe a way to combine both versions or just do both if not too much trouble. Thank you in advance

TURN DOWN YOUR VOLUME BEFORE PRESSING PLAY.
Having this as a boot animation would be SICK. Ive yet to find anyone that has been able to recreate it. Id like the sound and all. I even contacted the creator and asked if he would be able to do it and he said he didnt know how. lol.

Hi to all!!!
I want to share with the community a collection of FULL HD WALLPAPERS, perfectly resized to 2160x1920, ready to be applied as a wallpaper of your Xperia Z...or any FullHD device! :highfive:
The collection is built with wallpapers found into the internet, some already sized at 2160x1920, and some resized by me at that resolution...so I don't take credit for the wallpapers, the right credits go to the original creators! Regarding that, if anyone recognize its own wallpaper, just notice me and I'll remove it or I'll write the credit on it, no problems!
Anyway, CLICK HERE for the collection, and enjoy it!
If you liked this collection, please HIT THANKS! :good:
