[tutorial] creating boot animation - Samsung Galaxy Mini

Bootanination is a zipped set of images which is played when you start the mobile, Samsung uses a different tool to make bootanimation, and to make the mobile support the zipped bootanimation there is a procedure which can be easily found by googling
creating the boot animation is very easy
STEPS
1. create all the frames(images) of the boot animation and name them something like 00001, 00002, 00003, 00004 etc.(png format will be good for images, and frame's names must be according to their playing time)
2. put the frames in a folder and name the folder part 0 (if you want to loop some specific frames then put those frames in a folder and name that foder part 1)
3. now create a file naming desc.txt
4. in desc.txt if you have created 2 folders then write this :- 240 320 30p 1 0 part0p 0 0 part1
if you have created 1 folder then write this:- 240 320 30p 0 0 part0
5. select the file and folders you created and compress them using winzip or 7z like softwares
Here is what the desc.txt file does and mean.
240: is the stretched width of the animation
320: is the stretched height of the animation
30p: controls the speed of both parts of the animation, this number means 30 frames per second
1: defines how many times part0 of theanimation looped
0: this defined the number of times part1 of the animation looped (0=infinite)
part1: folder containing second part
of the animation
Note:- the Compression Level setting. It must be on store which is no compression. If you compress the animation it will not work
Name the zip file as bootanimation.zip and place in /system/media
hope it will help you create bootanimation.

[Bootanimation]Help please... not working

Hi guyz... can someone help me ?
My Custom boot animation wont WORK...
I made:
part0 = 320x480 - 20 png images
part1 = 320x480 - 24 png images
Both low quality (just in case)
the desc file is like this:
320 480 24p 1 0 part0p 0 0 part1
When I put it into system/media , overwrite the current bootanimation and set the permissions like the ORIGINAL... I just reboot the PHONE and nothing happens... just a black screen and normal BOOT to the OS...
WHAT DID I DO wrong ? PLEASE help, Im killing my self for a while
the desc.txt of Swiftdroid version has:
320 320 24
p 1 0 android
p 0 0 part1
and the folders are named
android
part1
Rename the .png file exactly as in the one of the ROM you are trying to create the boot animation and the same amount of files, as somewhere should be a script for call to the animations and if its files are not names exactly then might not boot.
Hope it Helps!

Maybe you compressed it wrong. Check out my video tutorial on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBDNIESLUQM . Also be sure to put the right permissions: rw-r-r.

Im not sure but i know if you put it in /data/local it will be used, in the process you can follow into a bootloop and if you have backed up , there is not problem

Make sure the folders are called part0 and part1 (with no capitals).Also the zip method of packing is set to store.
Can't remember where on xda I seen it but seen one called infected and it had blood cells floating around in,it was cool could I use with method abve or device specific? Cheers

[Q]Boot Animation

I modified all pics with photoshop and I saved they in JPG. So in system/media I overwrited bootanimation.zip.
I reboot my GS, but don't was the boot animation! Why?
Here is the bootanimation.zip that I modified.
I can't download it
Do you have this .txt file?
You can also try it at /data/local.
I tryed in data/local but the problem is same!
The file .txt is in the zip...
You have there another download of bootanimation.zip.
They have to be .Png files..
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda premium
I changed all pics in PNG but nothing...
What can be the problem?
I've seen your desc.txt and I've rewrited it like this:
480 800 30
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
I can't try your bootanimation at the moment so try to rewrite your desc in this way..
I changed desc.txt but the animation can't run...

[TUTORIAL] How to change bootanimation on stock ROM and some to download

Hi people,
first, I don't speak english very well.
I will show you how to change the bootanimation on froyo 2.2 or gingerbread 2.3.X.
What you need?
Root
Stock ROM
Root Explorer
bootanimation.zip is the set of several images that formed a "video" at start of your device.
bootanimation.zip: within this file can contain two folders:
part0 (first part of the animation)
part1 (second part of the animation)
Note: Some have only the folder bootanimation part0
And a text file called:
"Desc"
Within this file there are some parameters:
320 480 15 p p 1 0 0 0 part0 part1
Subtitles:
Red: Size of the picture, regardless of the size that it is within the file "bootanimation.zip" the size of it on the screen of your device will be determined in the field, with 320 width and 480 height. In Galaxy Mini you will use 240x320.
Green: 15 is the time in which images appear, the faster that number, the faster the "video" boot.
Blue: It means how many times the animation will appear in the folder, ie, p 1 0 part0, the animation of a folder will appear as 0.
Purple: The same thing the Blue, but in a folder, ie, the end of the animation.
3 - Understand how to create a bootanimation.zip
1 - you have the image in jpg or png named as you want as long as the end of each name finds the numbers in sequence. EX: 000, 001, 002, 003 ...
2 - Compress images using WinRAR like this:
compct
Filename: bootanimation.zip
File Format: ZIP
Method of storage: Store
4 - Okay, now having bootanimation.zip, copy to SD;
5 - Open Root Explorer and navigate to the directory "system / bin
6 - Look for the "samsungani" or "samsungloop", press and hold over the file, and select "MOVE";
7 - Browse to the folder "sdcard" and tap "PASTE"
Warning: If you have problems with
"Warning: can not've moved because the file system is read-only"
Press the right corner of Root Explorer
"Mount R / W" to be "Mount R / O!
8 - Back to the folder "system / bin" and browse to the "bootanimation"; - Navigate to the folder "sdcard" and tap "PASTE"
9 - Rename the file "bootanimation" to "samsungani" or "samsungloop" (depending on the file that you moved to SD in step 6)
10 - Now navigate to the "sdcard" and copy the bootanimation.zip;
11 - Navigate to the folder "system / media" and paste the bootanimation.zip here.
12 - rename the 2 files with extension. "MGQ" (removing the "g" at the end);
Reboot and enjoy!
I hope you like it!

Extract the bootanimation.zip u found
U will find some folders like part0, part1, animi0
Take all the pictures from the folders and resize then in Photoshop or a image size editor
U will also find a txt file called desc.txt
Open it.. and edit the first two no. With the required resolution.. first the width then the hieght..
Save itm. Don't touch anything else and zip the whole thing with resized pictures in the respective foulders and edited desc.txt file
Push it into system/media or where ever the original bootanimation of ur phone lies
And reboot
And press thanks

open path (device or emulated/system/media
copy bootanimation.zip/bootaudio.zip and paste it in sdcard
extract bootanimation.zip you will see some folders named part0, part1, and desc.txt
open desc.txt and copy the resolution of yours default resolution helps in creating same sizes of bootanimations that you are making its written in first line like 800x480
now start a blank project on Picsart with same resolution that You copied from desc.txt
Please Note: The animation that you see on while booting on your device all depends on the style of your Drawing that you are making
some have circular, spiral, in out all depends on your drawing
now select Color of background and apply some cool and creative backgrounds for your bootanimation

and the final flash after all done select your part0 folder and desc.txt and compressed it by using es file explore or easy unrar
NoTe : compression level should be STORE or No compression
All Done you jus created your first bootanimation without PC.....
To check your bootanimation open rom tool box and load your bootanimation file as preview it will shows up
To set as your created bootanimation as your default press install intead of preview
Hope its is the noob friendly and easiest guide on Xda

Bro the bootanimation.zip should be compressed in store format
The es file explorer compresses it in normal format
And hence the bootanimation doesnt work
Any way to compress that in store format without pc?
Got it
My fault
Nice tut
