The 24 and Jack Bauer are coming back this season. I got inspired to make boot and shutdown animations for our 4X resembling the show's intro and outro. The corresponding sounds are included.

How to install
1. Download and extract the 4xBootShut&Sounds.zip into a new folder on your computer
2. Connect the phone to the computer
3. Copy bootanimation.zip and shutdownanimation.zip to /system/media on your phone (back up the originals first if you want them back later)
4. Copy PowerOn.ogg and PowerOff.ogg to /system/media/audio/ui (also backup originals if you need them)
5. Disconnect and reboot your phone
ToDo
Currently, I'm experiencing problems with both sounds not playing and the shutdown anim is noticeably slower than it should be (an easy fix, but I won't be available for a few days). Still very usable, though.
Thank-yous
Many thanks to Dan Hildebrand

amazing idea :good::good::good:
good work :good:
Thanx, guys.
I have no spare time at present, but I hope to have some soon to correct mentioned nuisances.
After very thorough and detailed testing, I have no clue why the sounds don't play. They have proper bitrate, same permissions as the rest of the sounds, belong to root group. And nothing.
As for the slight lag in animations, all I can say is that lowering the FPS only produces stuttering and choppiness. It's obvious the H/W can't handle rapid animations.
Great
Testig now
Hi
Could you publish stock bootanimation, original from LG?

hey guys , *trying* to get my first boot animation up and running . whenever i render video in Photoshop to get my multiple .pngs , they are way too big . my bootanimation.zip ends up being over 13mb . from what i hear, the reason it is not booting is because there is a size constraint there. im no photoshop wiz , but i read i can mess with optimization settings to reduce size . however , every instructional i find is 3 years old and no longer applies in cs5 .
can someone hold my hand and explain to me how to get the size of this monster down? thanks.
you have a couple options. if you are making an animation from video, you can try removing every other frame. i've done this many times and it usually has no effect on the animation.
another way to reduce image size (or even in addition to the above) would be to use software to compress the png files. i use png gauntlet. it is lossless compression, so there shouldn't be any loss of image quality. also, it has a very user friendly interface, as opposed to pngcrush, for example, which is a command line utility.

Like stated above. Your png's don't have to be the size of the screen. You just set them up proportional to the screen oriantation and then you set the size in the desc.txt with the first 2 numbers.

oh, and i'm sure you came across this in your reading, but make sure you do not compress the zip file (in 7zip, select the store option)
Thanks guys . My issue was compressing the zip . Put it in store.mode and it boots now ... but soooo choppy . Its like butter when I play it in Photoshop

try messing with the fps in desc.txt
if you need any more help, i wouldn't mind giving you a hand if you can post the zip
I have a Samsung galaxy s . We have a 30fps cap on bootanimations I hear... might be that way for all phones . But I don't think that's the issue . I look at the cm7 boot animation, which is gorgeous and smooth , and its at 24 fps. So I dunno . I will post what I have shortly to see if I'm missing something stupid

For the love of God I cannot find a for Dummies guide!
I want to convert a GIF file into an animation and I am not even sure what programs I need to begin with.
Thanks for any help.
fritzgerald is the guy to ask!

I'll write something up tonight.
you need to extract the frames out of the gif file into multiple .png files.
I use something call Gif Frame Extractor. Search for it on google cause i cant post links. w w w [dot] evanolds [dot] c o m
After you extract the gif files its just a matter of resizing and tweaking your image set.
for the captivates your resolution should be 480 pixles wide by 800 pixles high.
name the series of images Image001.png Image002.png Image003.png etc.. I'm not sure what the max allowed images are but from my experimentation anything over 100 images tend to throw my phone into a bootloop. (be sure to have a good CWM backup handy when that happens)
I might upload a video tutorial/screencast later tonight as soon as i fix my phone (bootloop while trying to make the tutorial haha).
video guide is up on youtube
I made a quick guide on how to extract, edit and package your very own boot animation. The video came out crappy cause my screen capturing software didn't play well with Adobe Preimere. I'll try and make a better one over the weekend, but this should be sufficient for a quick reference.
Thanks mate!
With that and the steps fritzgerald I should be finally able to learn this
and music is bad while trying to pay attention to something important i find. hit mute in first 10 seconds the restarted video... couldnt think. 1
just a note for next time.
and i will be watching next time!
yeah i know its bad i made it at 3 in the morning didn't have time to review the video before work. Like i said the capture software totally konked out on me and premiere didnt want to sync the video correctly so im going to have to do the entire video over again later this week. BTW can anyone recommend a good screen capturing/casting software that plays well with Priemiere?
Hi I just moved from my atrix to this phone and was wondering if you guys had any ideas while the sound won't play with the bootanimation? Do i have to put the audio file in a different location than media/audio/notifications. I made a couple for the atrix and now trying to make it for this awesome phone but some how can't get the sound to work. thanks
PS: once i get this part to work i can do some request on boot animations from any clips from youtube.
Hello guys,
Im trying to change some of the default system sounds (CM9),
they are located at
/system/media/audio/ui <folder>
although im changing 1-2 ogg files (just to check them) when i reboot (clear cache&davlink) the sounds are not playing at all, if i change them back to original files they play again normaly.
What am i doing wrong?
Even though you are replacing them with ogg files I guess maybe they're not encoded the same way. Try replacing one with the other (changing the names of the original files) and see if that works. If it works it's probably the encoding.
By the way, what kind of sounds are you changing? Other than notifications and ring tones I don't see what you could ever want to change... is it like keyboard clicks?
I have done this on cm7 and cm9 successfully. i got the iphone lock sounds as an mp3, renamed them to lock.ogg and unlock.ogg, cut and pasted them in the above mentioned folder, and done! there is an app in the market called ui utility, that's where I got the sound files. good luck.
Hello xda!
This isn't anything "new" per se, but something I wanted to have on my phone, so I cooked it up and decided to share it for the hell of it. This is the animated "T-Mobile" logo from a T-Mobile USA YouTube video, followed by the CM10 bootsplash. So, this is just a modification of the "stock" CM10 bootsplash. This is for HDPI displays.
To install, just copy the attached zip file to the usual place (/system/media/bootanimation.zip) and reboot.
Sorry for the lack of videos/pictures, I'm unable to post links because I've too low a post count (I only post when there is something truly worth posting.) There's a poor quality video on my YouTube channel (user segin2005) if you want to see it in action.
