[Bootanimation] Google Gears - Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps

One of my favorite boot animations. Resized for our tablets.
Copy to /system/media and reboot. You need root access to copy this. Most people use root explorer for this. This is only for aosp roms such as AOKP / CM10 and the like. Not for stock roms!!
Download: http://d-h.st/3dg

Thanks for this. Question, did you have to delete the old boot animation file and did you have to mess with permissions?

You can backup the old boot animation on the sd card, or rename it to something that dont mess up with the new one.
@OT Could you provide more bootanimations? And maybe for the 7 inch and the 10 inch one?

Yes just rename it to bootanimation.old or copy it to a safe place (like the external SD card)

Yes I could resize it and make it bigger, smaller etc I will work on it tonight and update the post. I had a buddy here who wanted it so I thought I'd share it with everyone.
Thanks

Noob question, where is that dir? system/media
I use astro file manager, and can't find it

You need root explorer to see those folders.

OP updated with resized animation.

I have been working on this a bit and have failed at it miserably.
I'm trying to get this animation onto my tab:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/20788-bo...ic-old-skool-arcade-title-screen/page__st__10
Ideally I'd like to get it running in "portrait" mode, which I think means all the images need to be rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise.
I haven't managed to succeed, only make my tab not display anything on screen anymore in landscape mode, and display only like 1/3rd of the screen in portrait mode.
That was fun to fix LOL.
Anyways, any suggestions? It seems like this should be easy!

Looks great! I'm about to try.

Using Root Explorer cannot transfer the file to the appropriate folder. Error msg something like - it's Read Only. Even trying to change it to RW, also failed.

[BOOT ANIMATION] Particles Portal

This is my latest android boot animation.
There are two versions.
One with intro and loop
One with the whole animation in loop
Tell which one you like more.
Files can be found here
Hope you like it. If so, use thank button or donation (I'll appreciate it. LOL)
Both look similar but will go for the second one cheers mate
PS - can i just flash this via CWM?
They are the same. I couldn't decide if I liked the whole animation keep looping or just the final part with the Android text
as a loop

Miui can change boot screens through the theme Chooser without having to use root explorer but I think it uses mtz files. Do you mind if I ask if anyone can make a miui version of your boot?

Jelly Bean stuff

Since LG won't release ICS, why not skip ahead a bit and start adding Jelly Bean stuff to GB. Attached are some of the things you can use right away. You must have root.
If you don't follow these instructions properly, it's not my fault if you screw something up. Best to make a nandroid backup before you proceed, mmkay?
Boot animation:
Copy to /system/media, permissions 0644. Might look a little weird since it's 640x640, but you can't have everything on the first day JB's released
Play Store:
Install, done. Or, copy to /system/app, permissions 0644.
It's for US, so not all of the changes will be here. Most notably, you can't buy movies out of US yet (the option will not be there).
Fonts:
Extract the fonts, copy to /system/fonts, permissions 0644, rename to DroidSans.ttf (rename the original to DroidSans.ttf.bak or something) or symlink it to DroidSans.ttf. Do the same for the bold and italic fonts.
Added both Roboto and RobotoCondensed, as well as some more. You can only use Roboto or RobotoCondensed at any one time, you can't have your cake and eat it too
Wallpapers:
Extract them, paste them somewhere, open in gallery, set as wallpaper.
Now, doublecheck your permissions. Failure to set permissions correctly may result in bootloops.
After all that, reboot to enjoy.
PS. All of the zips are not flashable zips, don't even try flashing them.
Which. Ones can I flash?

You can extract the fonts.zip and the wallpapers.zip.
The bootanimation.zip goes in "/data/local"
The Vending.apk goes in "/system/app"

My boot animation.zip is in system/media.I have seen both used ..I'm curious now which would load if I put a diff in each spot...might have to try..
Update: the answer is local/data loaded boot animation when there was one in each spot...however the actual jellybean animation is loading but not displaying right for me ....just some graphics flashing for a sec then black screen til boot...same happened when I replaced file in system media. I think zip is corrupted.
