some can change it to me to 854*400?(or 800*400)
if someone want write here anf i send him the file....
thanks!
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

Did you edit the desc.txt file correctly to your required resoulution?
It should be like
Code:
320 480 30
p 0 0 part0

Are you sure you want it to be 5 FPS? If you have a black screen, either\

Hello Guys,
I did searched the threads for creating bootanimation. i pulled one from froyo roms and did exactly the same way it was made in the rom.
txt part0 part1
made 256 x 256 frames and used uncompressed zip and pushed it but all i got was a black screen. according to the text file pixels are 480 480, i even tried 480 854 but no luck.
any ideas?

After I made my first bootanimation, it did that.
But it turns out I used compression. Second time, didn't do compression,
but I zipped the 'bootanimation' folder rather than the 'contents' folder.
If you just want to start, download a preexisting one (I did the inverted splash) and then make your images, replace the images already there, and go.
I did as u mentioned. I didnt compress it. I used the store option n zipped it. Would u plz tell me what pixel did u use for ur images n the text file?
I don't understand why ppl don't get it. POST QUESTIONS IN Q&A SECTION!! Thank you.

This can actually be a complicated process as you have to use a certain Zip software to make this to work. If you are running Windows, you cannot use the windows provided software as it compresses the files. I used 7zip, which I feel is the easiest to use. This software actually lists "Add to archive." Once you select that, Archive Format should be Zip and Compression Level should be Store. If you are using Winzip, it does not list Add to archive so stick with 7zip for custom boot animations.
is it possible to go back to the stock boot animation or do you have to save a copy before doing so?
Anything is possible with N1. I would recommend moving the original bootanimation to another folder on your phone, but if you overwrite it you can always just download the original online.
I understand it should be uncompressed zip. my guess im not doing something right in making frames. i named them correctly and made pixels 256 x 256. i even mixed it with droid images, so I could at least see those images if my doesnt work, still no luck. I attached my zip file, I appreciate if you guys take a look and tell me what im i have done wrong
Ok I re did the bootanimation for you. Try and see if it works.

Actually this works! Thanks
however, i tried to change your txt value from 256 to 480 and slow down the frame rate and still the animation is small. I wish I could make it bigger. here is one of the bootanimations i extracted from Froyo Rom, it has same values but looks larger in boot. do you know how?
btw I appreciate if you tell me what does 0 and 1 value mean in txt file
Thanks alot
in order to change the size of the animation make sure that the picture is 256(x) x 480 first and then change the value in the desc.txt to 256(x) and 480. the values in the desc.txt have to do with the looping of the boot animation.

Hi all. I made my own bootanimation but it doesn't work.
I have .png files in both part0 and part1 folders.
I did zip them with desc.txt file like bootanimation.zip
desc.txt lines:
512 256 24
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
I placed it in /data/local like other ones i tried but it doesn't work. I just got black screen at boot.
Also i tried to push it with adb to /system/media and it didn't work.
I have tried other ones and they work.
Anyone?
Thanks

These are some of the most missed things when making them
1. bootanimation.zip can not have any compression the compressionlevel should be set to store when you make make it. This will cause you to get a black screen.
2. the first line in your desc.txt defines your animations width and height and the frame per second... you should match your phones resolution other wise youll get bad sizing and or stetching
3. Make sure that the files in your part's folders are sequential ie. file_0001.png, file_0002.png
if I was to guess you probably have your bootanimation.zip compressed.
Thanks for quick reply.
I used total commander to pack the files.
Can't see any option for packing just to store the files or something like that.
Which program can i use that will just store them?
thanks
ok, i found the options in commander how to pack without compresion. Going to try it now. thanks
yeey, it worked! thank you

glad I could help, this same issue stumped me for a whole day before I went back to by compare everything tactic and noticed it.
I made another boot animation..and now I have different problem
The animations runs well, until the half of images of second part (part1) then it just stays there!
I waited for about 5 mins, then I reboot the device. Tried it again cupple of times, but it ends up same. What to do? Flash?

post the bootanimation.zip but more than likely your phone is locking up. not sure why but the zip would help.
Hey.
I think the problem was some stupid app I installed to root my device (tablet btw).
I realize it now because I had problems with ADW after installing the app (it was crashing a lot). I use the UniversalAndroot app but i wanted to try the other one someone told me it was good..but its not So I flashed it again and tried the boot animation and it is working well
anyway, here is my first bootanimation if you want to check it out:

Thanks for help anyways.
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.

THX for that :-* I found a solution :\
Just 1 more question... i got the MMxtreme Advanced Lite Edition, thats a ECLAIR 2.1 ROM... the bootanimation got the folders "android,part0 and part1".. does the bootanimation will work on other ROMs ?

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

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..

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...
HI all,
I am trying to create a boot animation for my N6, it's a family video that lasts 33 seconds.
I used ffmpeg to extract the images, I tried different resolutions (720x400, 720x1280, 960x720, 720x540, 1440x800, and 1440x1080), and frame rates (8, 12 and 30).
The desc.txt looks like this:
720 400 12
p 0 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
Also
1440 1080 8
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
There's a total of 264 images, with only 1 on the part1 folder.
I also tried 'c' instead of 'p' in the desc.txt. I used jpg and png formats.
If I'm lucky the phone boots w/o showing the animation, other times, it boots, but there is no video at all and I have to boot recovery, remove bootanimation.zip and reboot (permissions are 644 on the file).
Any suggestions?
WTF am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance

Thanks, sent you a PM with G-Drive link.
Check the file structure of your zip. Inside the zip file you should have only the part0, part1, and the desc file. How did you create the zip? Make sure the compression is store. I've done this b4 but make sure you named it right after placing in the media folder. I forgot the "t" once and it drove me nuts trying to figure out why it wouldn't play.
Set the res to 1440x2560 then rotate the images 90° right and your boot will play in landscape mode.
Found the problem!

I found the problem... I found a thread in droidforums that said they had the same problem until they had a XXXX_000.jpg as the first image... Mine started at 001.
So I guess in this case the system requires the numbering to start with 0... Go figure.
Anyway, thanks again @obtained

Lol, I just sent a message back with the problem. Everything in the folders and desc.txt were just fine. You just can't compress the archive at all.
