[BOOT ANIMATION]The Screaming Droid! Now With Sound!!! (Updated 3/13/11)

UPDATE:
First I want to thank every one, I also want to give a shout out to
Mrdaviso for making the sound possible on cm7, please give him thanks for his thread on this. I've been waiting to have sound for the animation for sooo long and now it finally works and thanks to him.
I stripped all the text out of the animation except for the android logo and the preview below is exactly what it is, he screams and then stares at you and blinks until your phone boots.
The scream I choose is one I thought was appropriate... the original Godzilla roar! But if you really want, and I honestly would love to see more sound files made, please offer others. You can use mine as a template for syncing with the animation. I love to see others post sounds for this!
Heres the d/l link hope you guys like this.This zip file contains the bootanimation.zip, android_audio.mp3 (godzilla) and the bootsnd.sh (to setup sound playing on phone bootup)
Installation of the new un-branded versions with sound!!! PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:
First how to setup boot animation sound on cm (link to the op):
To install boot animation:
1. just unzip the screaming_android_with_sound.zip file on the root of your sdcard
2. copy the bootanimation.zip file to the system/media folder replacing the old one or renaming the old one and copying this one over if your just testing.
3. Android wins again!
Changing the ResolutionThe resolution for the animation is 480X800 if you'd like a different size:
1. copy the bootanimation.zip file to your computer.
2. open the zip and edit the desc.txt 's second line (480 800 not the 25 read below) to match your phones resolution.
3. save the file and close the zip program
4. you shouldn't need to unzip the bootanimation.zip file to do the above
5. if you do need/want to unzip it when rezipping make sure the compression level your zipping it on is "store" or it won't work.
Sound doesnt seem to match up?... change to animation speed in the desc.txt file:
1. copy the bootanimation.zip file to your computer.
2. open the zip and edit the desc.txt 's second line (only the 25 not the first 2 numbers) to speed it up or slow it down.
3. save the file and close the zip program
4. you shouldn't need to unzip the bootanimation.zip file to do the above
5. if you do need/want to unzip it when rezipping make sure the compression level your zipping it on is "store" or it won't work.
NOTES:
want a different sound on the animation... the sound file has to be called android_audio.mp3 for it to play, this file will play for any new bootanimation you install unless you remove the android_audio.mp3 file and it has to be an mp3.
Programs to help... if you don't have root explorer get "Super Manager" from the market it does r/w and root privileged file exploring (and more) just like root explorer and its free.
I'm only giving this out in zip file format, I'm not doing a flashable as its to hard to keep up with all the different roms and resolutions. I provide instruction on how to change the resolution of the animation to fit your phone.

This is a flashable zip, I only produce flashables as pushing stuff is a pain in the ass for most people. I like flashables as they take the guess work out of installing things. This flashable works with AOSP roms though.

Very nice is it simply flashable in recovery with stock rooted rom for desire?
thanks

Yes the zip is flashable its only mdpi resolution right not but if requested i'll make a hd one. It gets flashed to system/media which is the aosp standard if you need something different just ask.

Is the hd one for the desire ?
and the mdpi version is still fully compatible with the desire resolution?

mdpi is the only one I made which has a resolution of 380 by 420. I think on higher res phones it gets stretch but I can't guarantee, it wont hurt your phone to try it though at the worst it'll just have black edge where the resolution falls short.
If you want a higher res one just post me your resolution and I'll hook one up later tonight. To make it flashable to your device I need to know what device you have and what rom you run, since this flashable is for AOSP roms and tries to place the bootanimation in the media folder.

The desire screen res is 480×800 if you can make a compatible boot animation is very apreciated very thanks otherwise i try the mdpi version

Need help with Bootanimation

Hey guys
I know there is alot of skilled themers here, so i ask your help. Ive been trying to modify a bootanimation- Android Particles.
All ive done is change the hue of the files and when flashed it is just a black screen when booting.
Can anyone please help me
Thankyou very much
download http://www.multiupload.com/MRMO8AGPXZ

Make sure when you zip the folders with the images, you are not compressing it. The .zip is just for storage & will not boot if compressed.
===============
Here's what you do
===============
1. Extract the files from the bootanimation.zip you created.
2. Make the same archive in winrar/zip/7z but set compression method to 'Store'
3. Replace the bootanimation.zip that won't boot with the one you just made
4. Reboot
5. Marvel at your very own bootanimation
6. Hit the thanks button

Thankyou very much

No problem amigo

thanks!

[Boot Animation] ctOS Boot Animation

Hello!
So I've been playing a bit of Watch Dogs as of late, and decided that I wanted to go ahead and make a ctOS-style boot animation, emulating the geometric hacker-looking loading animation you see in the game;
I went ahead and found this video of the animation I was looking for, and formatted it into a 1080p boot animation for my OnePlus One, and any other 1080x1920 resolution phones.
Click Here To Download The CM11/CM12 Version From Google Play!
OTHER LINKS ARE DOWN THIS WEEK UNTIL MY GOOGLE DRIVE IS UPDATED
I've attached the two ZIP installers to this OP in the meantime:
Installation Instructions:
The first download link is the Google Play link for my CM11/CM12 version, it works with any ROM that supports both the CM11 Theme Engine, and the new CM12 Theme Engine!
The other 2 attachments are flashable ZIP files - one for 1080p phones, and the other for 720p phones - just reboot to your recovery (TWRP or CWM), and flash away! The installer backs up your previous boot animation, and applies mine. It's that simple.
A huge thanks to Flashalot for making the ZIP for me, and now thanks to exxxistent for making a 720p version installer too!
ATTENTION -- for any ROMs using the CM11 or CM12 Theme Engine, use the Google Play link above; any of the following methods will only replace the stock boot animation for the ROM with the one you install. Therefore, any themes you apply other than the stock ROM theme will supersede my boot animation and use the theme's instead.
To install via your phone:
Download the bootanimation.zip file, and open up a root file explorer to find where you downloaded it to
Now go ahead and navigate to your /system/media folder (you may need to allow your file explorer to mount system as read/write for the next step)
Find your current bootanimation.zip, and rename it to bootanimation.zip.bak (just backin' up your original one)
Now copy the downloaded bootanimation.zip into /system/media, and make sure the permissions for the zip are RW-R-R (octal 644)
And it's installed!
To install via ADB:
Download the bootanimation.zip file from the download link above, and find the file in your computer's file manager
Open up the folder where you have your ADB binary, and copy the bootanimation.zip file into that folder
Connect your phone to your computer via USB, and make sure USB Debugging is enabled on your phone
Open up Command Prompt (PC) or Terminal (Mac), and type:
Code:
cd [THE FOLDER ADB IS IN]
** For Mac users, you may need to type in ./adb instead of just adb, if you get a "command not found" error
Now, type in the following, hitting enter after every line:
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /sdcard/bootanimation.zip
adb shell
su
mount -o remount rw /system
mv /system/media/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip.bak
cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/media
chmod 644 /system/media/bootanimation.zip
And you're good to go!

I'm currently working on a variant of this animation, in which the beginning part loops and then the animation ends on the ctOS icon, like it does if you are waiting for the game to load. I've figured out how the Android L and M boot animations implement a closing animation, so it shouldn't take long to recreate the 1080p version to start with.
Enjoy!

hey bro!!
I like this bootanimation.
my mobile doesn't supports the .gif format, so can u make this .zip for me?

Do you want the previews I made in a zip format? Because the bootanimation itself is in a JPEG series format that should work for any 1080p phone.

Very nice!
Is this just download and flash via twrp?

It is not. It's to push to /system/media and to set permissions to at least rw-r-r.

That is a great idea for a boot animation, but wouldn't it be nicer to make it an apk instead of zip and use the CyanogenMod theme engine to set it as boot animation?
Is it possible, can you make it or perhaps someone here who knows how can help you?
Sent from my OnePlus One using XDA Free mobile app

Thanks a lot. Just flash and good to go. I wonder if this will work on the htc m8?

It should work on any 1080x1920 resolution screen, so you should be good to go. As far as the installer goes, just make sure your bootanimation for your ROM is being loaded
from /system/media, and you should be fine using it with your m8.

That's a great idea! I went ahead and started looking into making CM11 Theme Apps, so once I've made one for the bootanimation I'll put the Google Play link here.

This is epic, I love it. :good:

Thanks for de-mystifying this for us.
I wanted the stock CyanogenMod "cid" animation on my One, and your explanation made it dead easy to accomplish.

Very nice. Thank you.
Looking forward to more!

Very very nice ... Love it

The stock bootanimation + ctOS style has to be something awesome. Can you do it?
Thanks for your work!
Enviado desde mi OnePlus One usando Tapatalk

you know what, you may as well copy the "bootanimation.zip" file to the /data/local/ directory, change permissions to rw-r-r and then reboot. you get the same effect without renaming any file at all. for me it's cleaner and may not break future OTAs.

Did not work on Mahdi rom flashed via TWRP
Edit: Also tried with adb shell... the file is copied correctly but boot animation is still stock !! how is this possible ?

If you're referring to the stock Android L boot animation, then yes, I'm already working on it! Classes just started for me, so I may be a bit busy for a while, but I'll work on this as much as I can.

That's true, it's definitely easier... I prefer doing everything manually if I'm going to do anything manually at all, so I guess that's why I like renaming files and working in the /system/media/ directory

So sorry it couldn't work for you! It looks like Mahdi ROM may not be working with any custom boot animations right now, so I've added that to the OP. I've also contacted the dev to let me know when that's been resolved, so we'll just have to sit tight and wait until that's working again....

Got it working !! apparently the issue is themesshowcase App ... If you set a different bootanimation from stock , the .zip file is picked up from local folder of the theme. so even though i copied the file to correct location , it was the stock location. i.e what you have mentioned in OP. After i switched to stock bootanimation via Themesshowcase app , it loaded ctOS animation very nice animation !! thanks for the work !

Perfect, thanks for letting me know! I'll go add that to the installation instructions, and remove that Mahdi ROM is incompatible. The dev actually just got back to me and told me boot animations work fine with the ROM, so it's good to hear there's just a workaround required for manual insertion via my flashable zip. Otherwise that would've sucked for everyone using the CM11 Theme Engine...

If I want to switch back to stock can I change it from the theme manager or do I have to reflash the stock animation as well?

Click to expand...

I'm going to add all of this to the OP when I get a free minute here, but the CM11 Theme Manager will see my installed boot animation as the stock one that comes with the ROM, so you will have to manually restore the old one before seeing it in your default theme again. You can change to another boot animation via the Theme Manager, but the stock one will stay as mine until you either flash the "undo" zip file or manually replace the backed-up stock boot animation.

[THEME][TWRP] Material Curtains

Made some TWRP curtains in Material colors. These where made for my Nexus 6 but will work with any device with a QHD display (1440x2560).
Inspired by z31s1g's "Holofied" Curtains. Not as good looking but they work for me. For bonus swag use gaich's Material TWRP themes for QHD screens (based off z31s1g's).
Some screenshots for your eyeholes:
Zip file includes 20 Curtains.
But How do I replace the Curtain???
1. Download the Android Image Kitchen.
2. Extract it into any folder.
3. Drag your Nexus 6 TWRP recovery.img onto the "unpackimg.bat" file.
4. Go into ramdisk\res\images\.
5. Replace original curtain.jpg with one of my replacements (rename to curtain.jpg).
6. Go back to the starting folder and click "repackimg.bat".
7. Flash the resulting "image-new.img" from fastboot (from CMD: "fastboot flash recovery image-new.img" [without quotes]).
8. ???
9. Profit.

This may be a dumb question but where is the TWRP image on the phone or do we download a new one? I found a .twrps file in the TWRP folder but that's all.

You have to re-download the TWRP image from the official site and uncompress it to replace the curtain.jpg.
Once you have the .img file just follow the instructions at the end of first post.

OK I'm just making sure that I'm not crazy. Thanks for that I'll give it s try now
Edit: what file explorer are you using to drag it onto the unpack.IMG? I'm using efs and its not letting me move it into it even when I drag it.

If its not too much to ask, can we have one with a black background and white letters? Clean and minimal as possible? Thanks!

Hy guys!
I'm currently using a Nexus 5 and i really love the Nexus Root Toolkit ( NRT). It's a software that allows you to flash an image, root, etc, with just a few clicks.
Is there anything like this available for the Asus Zenfone 2?
Thanks!

I have also tried to copy the file across using X-plore but am getting an error message regarding permissions...
Apologies if this seems simple to tech heads...am a middle aged dufus attempting to get used to this new phone...
