[BootAni] Updated BIOS Bootscreen for Desire HD

Hello all,
Attached to this post is an updated version of the BIOS boot animation for your shiny Desire HDs I don't own one myself (just yet at least!), but I was making one for LeeDrOiD's ROMs, and thought it would be good to create a generic one if you are using a different Custom ROM.
This is based off of the original creative/design of frysee! Thanks to him for allowing me to mod this boot animation for the DHD!
I have tested this on my Classic Desire and it seems to work great, so if anyone runs into any issues, please let me know in this thread.
Some things you should note:
bootanimation.zip is within the scar45-desireHD-bios-bootanimation.zip
android_audio.mp3 is also included, which is start up sounds from an old PC
You should be able to replace the originals, either by replacing them in the .zip before flashing, or using S-OFF (or recovery) to replace them after.
Most common path for these 2 files is /system/customize/resource
Previews below were mangled by the forum upload process, but they're perfectly crisp 480 x 800 PNGs within the .zip
Note that this did take me a good while (editing 92 .PNGs), since I couldn't use the classic Desire BIOS generator to make the specs change to the Desire HD, so any donations are greatly appreciated, especially if you get a kick out of this boot animation!
Oh, and if you want to include this boot animation on your website/ROM/etc., just send me a PM first...thanks!
Hope you enjoy!

Hi goran, I don't have a Desire HD myself, but I believe you should look in /data/local to see if the original .zip file is there. If so, simply replace it (you'll need S-OFF, or do it via Recovery using ADB).
Do NOT try and flash the .zip that you downloaded (scar45-desireHD-bios-bootanimation.zip) as it contains another .zip file within, namely 'bootanimation.zip' which is the one that you should replace. Neither .zip files are actually flashable, so you'll probably just get an error if you attempt to. With the provided .zip package that I've attached to this post, you should be able to Google and find the answers as to how to replace it if you're still having difficulties.
Thanks for your interest in this too!

It's quite funky. I had a little chuckle when I saw that apparently the HTC Ace has an i440BX motherboard in it though

ah ok...i have custom lee's rom with soff and recovery...but I cannot find anywhere the bootanimation

THX for the animation.

Just replaced the files and rebooted my DHD.
Always liked the old fashion boot..
Thanks for your work.

It needs to be pushed to data/local/, works well

just copy there? no other actions? please reply

Astro cannot access these files, you will need root explorer to see and manipulate with it.

[app] BATMAN Swype! *Updated 5-18*

Hey Everyone!
Let me give some thanks here:
Illinois08 for huge help with the pesky update script and editing skills.
Maddoggin of course for initial help learning to theme Swype.
MysteryEmotionz for making the trace color yellow! Give him a thanks here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1082764
I was sent a request to make this for a member but thought I would share it with everyone!
First things first, If you brick your phone while trying to install, I am not responsible! Always make a back up before any flash through clockwork.
Now, this is not as detailed as some of the other themed Swype keyboards but I think it came out very nice. If you are looking for a very detailed and very nice looking Swype, check out Overstew's creation http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074469! He did an awesome job!
It comes with both Portrait and Landscape. I have also made a custom notification drop-down to go with it . It will be in a different .zip file for you to download and you WILL NOT be able to flash that .zip from recovery, there is a different process to get the drop-down installed.
I will be posted an update later with a yellow trace line, right now it is normal blue. I am getting help from the legend MysteryEmotionz, Thanks buddy!
The only downside was that the Batman font didn't have lower case , but the member I made it for decided to go close to stock just for lower case so it doesn't look to bad just not perfect...
To install the BatmanSwype.zip, do as follows:
1. Download BatmanSwype.zip (bottom of post) and place on your SD card in phone.
2. Reboot your device in CWM.
3. You probably don't have to wipe cache or dalvik but I do just to be safe .
4. Install BatmanSwype.zip from SD.
5.Reboot and Save Gotham from cramped fingers of normal texting!!
Updated 5-17 with yellow trace!! Good work MysteryEmotionz!
Updated 5-18... Had to change update script should be ok now!
If you want the notification drop down as well. Do as follows:
First: Download Batmannotification.zip. Do not try to install from recovery.
If you are running a theme it makes it a lot easier. Open the theme zip on your desktop with winrar or 7zip archive.
If not you may have to do an adb pull and once it is finished, go to system/framework/twframework-res.apk.
1. You will need to find you twframework-res.apk. Which should be under system/framework.
2. Open the twframework-res.apk (with winrar)
3. Go to res/drawable-hdpi.
4. Pull the Batman images I have made out of the zip (do not change names as it is already named correctly) and put them in drawable-hdpi. Click yes to update archive.
5. You can either put it back in your theme zip and reflash or I believe you should be able to adb push twframework-res.apk /system/framework... If you do it this way a reboot should be required for changes to take affect.
And Ta-Da... New and improved notification drop-down to go with the Batman Swype!
If you have any questions, feel free to ask or if you have any ideas for a special one for you let me know!

Tight work on the app my man. Props!

[Bootanimation] Sydicate Shutdown in reverse

I wanted to try something small as a just got in to modding a few days ago but unfortunately I still needed some help. Thanks to qbking77 & jkrough0728 for all your assistance in making this noobs day!
Just to give a little back here it is for any of you that would like it. Before you ask no it doesn't include the sound. Install it with the copy/paste method (not flashable)
Edit - Make sure you push it using root explorer, I tried others like file explorer and such and it didn't take.
Syndicatebootup.zip is the flashable version for those that would like that better. Thanks qbking77!

Awesome!!! Trying now
Good work!

Is this different than the one I already have?

Isn't the syndicate shutdown animation the original samsung shutdown? I'm confused here...
Sent from my Epix 4G using XDA

Its close to it, but the next thing to add is a blue pulse either under all graphcs and text or just the "s". Just learning how to use after effects to animate and render a .png sequence for me and modifying the desc to make it loop till the phone boots.

I actually edited my srf 1.2 to include this when flashing. So technically this is my stock boot ani. Still working on a blue pulsing background for it in adobe after effects. I will modify the OP when done.

I'm digging it, nice clean boot up and matches the shutdown animation well on srf1.2
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

I'm not sure why you guys did this, when I've posted the original SyndicateROM animation that matches the shutdown several times... I'm responsible for the S + text, and the loop is thanks to Pseudoremora.
The loop is nice, if you ask me. I'm using this animation right now.

[Collection]Boot Animations - 1080x1920 - HTC ONE

This will be a thread collection of custom boot animations for everyone to share with each other.
Fell free to post any you like, make sure it is 1080x1920!
In most roms (not every), the boot/down animations will go in: system/customize/resource
They will also have to be renamed like this:
hTC_bootup_one.zip
hTC_downanimation.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I believe this will change once 4.2.2 is out. I will update this post when the new update rolls out.
To Setup Custom Boot Animation
1.) Download boot/down animation of choice (1080x1920)
2.) Download a root file explorer (es file explorer, root explorer)
3.) Copy the boot animation zip file
4.) Navigate to /system/customize/resource with explorer
5.) Paste zip file
6.) Rename old boot/down animation with .bak at the end
7.) Rename new boot/down animation
I will start first and post what I have been using for boot/down animations.
This is a Beats Audio animation. The same one that comes with viperROM just without the viper part.
If this starts to grow I can even turn this OP into a list and get everything organized to help everyone find stuff a little easier.

Thanks for starting this man!

Attached is one I love. Gonna be making it a bit cleaner and such, however, I did not make the original images. I simply modified it to be 1080 1920 with a 20 fps rate. I also increased the resolution of the original images slightly.
Enjoy.

I've attempted to use these in lieu of Sprint's boot animations. But after a reboot, both of Sprint's animations have overwritten the one's that I've replaced them with. How do I prevent that from happening?
Thanks!

What rom? Did you delete the sprint ones and rename the new ones to match whats in the default.xml in the CID folder(system/customize/CID)

[BOOTANIMATION] QHD Moto X with Nexus Logo and Nexus 6 Trailer <Updated 10/04/15>

[BOOTANIMATION] QHD Moto X with Nexus Logo and Nexus 6 Trailer <Updated 10/04/15>
Hello XDA,
I always liked the Moto X Boot Animation when i had mi Xperia Z Ultra and Note 3, but i never get to used it since they was a Sony and a Samsung, so no M logo for them.
But now with my Nexus the history is diferent, and since i never liked the google's Boot Animation (only the Galaxy Nexus One) with the X or the coloured dots spinning around, i've decided to update it with a cooler one.
i was triying to use MP4 videos as Boot animation, but seems like it only works on 5.0.x and not 5.1, so i decided to build a QHD version of the regular (using images) Moto X Boot Animation, and later i've decided to include the nexus logo in it.
I used the Boot Animation version from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/themes-apps/motorola-moto-x-bootanimation-t2391927 and upscaling to 1440x2560, and include the nexus logo in the bottom of the Motorola Logo.
Here you will find the bootanimation.zip that i've made and the original one in case you messed it up.
just rename your old one to .bak and copy the new one setting Octal 644 permissions or rw-r-r and thats it.
Moto X Boot Animation: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8mccIIJvIWnNWUtaWhnS25kTnM/view?usp=sharing
Stock Boot Animation: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8mccIIJvIWnb3lwRXdjeV85M1E/view?usp=sharing
i was going to make a .zip version to install via recovery, but this is almost idiotproof, since if you mess it, it wil either go black during boot, or just show Android logo.
Some Frame Images Attached
Update...
Well i was looking for nice BA to port for Nexus, but most of them were in really low resolution, so when you upscale them the result was all pixelated, so i start working to convert videos to BA, and this is my first attempt.
This Boot Animation it's extracted from the Official Nexus 6 Trailer, and ends with the word nexus breathing while the X goes and comes. its in landscape mode, but the result is pretty good.
Remember to rename your original BA to .bak and then push the new one. In case you mess it up, just get into TWRP, mount system, then get in to advanced and file explorer, navigate to system/media, delete the BA.zip and rename the.bak to .zip and thats it.
As ussual, just push the zip to System/Media to use this BA, and set permissions to 644 (rw-r-r)

Dont forget to hit thanks if you like my work

This is cool, thank you.

Very nice... But i would prefer the background to be black in color... IMO with white background the screen is too glaring upon booting up...

Awesome thanks was thinking of this the other day !!

Black would look amazing! I think I will try this one out though. Thanks

Thanks a lot for sharing this. Works fantastic

I was thinking the Same, but i couldn't find the black version. i was trying to change the white version to black, but since it has a lot of details around the logo, it was a titanic task to change 303 images one by one.
found one, but i still dont like it... it has like a white holow around the logo because of the objects.

Looks and works great!!
Thanks for the boot animation!
