Hey everyone.
Thought id make a thread so everyone can show there fav boot animations.
& maybe even shutdown animation ?
Lets see what ya got
Does the boot animation have to be made specifically for the DHD or can it be from any device?
Where would I find one and how would I install it?

i dont think they hve to be made specifically for the dhd but they hve to be 800 by 480 in size.
im using a custom boot animation that i got from some site (cant remember the site though)
ive attached the boot animation tht im using.... its for apple haters
just google android boot animations u will get many links...thts wat i did
and then just copy ur bootanimation.zip and drop it in /data/local
Hmm, doesn't work for me? I did see someone saying the file might be stored else where?
Also, anyone with some time able to build me a hemorrdroids boot anim?

oh
maybe different roms hve different locations or sumthing
im using leedroids rom
otherwise try putting it in
/system/customize/resource
Yeah, that did the trick. Thanks
I need some help as I don't know what file name or file type or location for the shutdown sound I've created. Does anyone know this? I'm guessing it should go in "/system/customize/resource" as this works for replacing the shutdown animation (which is "downanimation.zip")
Does anyone know this?
I'll be sure to post the boot & shutdown animations plus the sounds in the Themes & Apps section once I'm finished... just need this and I'll be done soon.

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.
with estrongs I was able to replace these files.
very nice
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.

no sir, i am referring on the animation like the one in emanonv3 boot animation
yes looks like dmesg logcat but not that actually
i trid it on cm7 but it doesnt work.
putting the bootanimation.zip
change the permissions

but the boot is still the default, i tried also other flashable boots
and they work smoothly
i am just amazed on the bios boot animation
If u replaced the default bootanimation how can that still appear! U used root explorer? Try putting it in a flashable zip.
Just open the zip of any flashable bootanimation in an winrar/zip archive. Drag and drop the bios bootanimation into it correctly replacing the existing one. Close it and flash.
Don't extract the zip to replace, then u need to sign it.

done it sir, but with a black screen
i tried again flashing other animation
they still works, haha confused on this one, really
Oh Sry I have not tried that animation, if I do in future then I'll let u know...n don't call me sir
sure, i am looking in a guide, how to make a flashable.zip in cwm
maybe i can make it work, maybe.
Is it possible to put a music with the boot animation just like in Squadzone's CM7 RC 1? The folder in which the bootanimation.zip was stored also had a <I-forgot-the-name>.ogg with the same sound that played during the boot.

It works for me on tj's cm7.
I've attached an ldpi version...simply replacing with rootexplorer works.
but all images should be resized and edited to make it perfect, which i didn do...but changing the desc is good enough i think.

OK, I've found a couple Dr. Who boot animation files that are supposed to be flashable in CWM but I haven't been able to get any of them to work. Anyone know of a working Dr. Who boot animation that is flashable in CWM? Preferably one with no sound but at this point I'll take anything.
EDIT:
Here are the three I've tried. I've also tried the on in BAC. It worked the first time I tried it but then I flashed my ROM and now it won't work.
If you post the ones you have I will tinker with them and see if I can figure out what's up with it

I don't think there is a Dr Who bootanimation for the epic yet so whatever zip he has is probibly has different size frames. Most likley they will need to be resized. Also the desc.txt file will need to be edited with the appropriate measurements.

If I recollect properly, there is a Tardis one in the Boot Animation Changer in the market... might be one of the premium ones, I uninstalled the app awhile ago so not sure on that...

OK, on ThunderHawk the one from Boot Animation Changer did not work. I flashed the new Legacy yesterday and now Boot Animation Changer works fine. I would still like to make my own though. Anyone know a good tutorial?
It's pretty easy once you have a video I use iwisoft video converter to change the movie to. Pngs, keep special attention to file size, I usually do a 5 fps, then take those images, put them into a new folder called bootanimation, make 2 folders in there part0 and part, take the images and put them into part0, and then take part of the images at the end(the portion you would like related on long boots, and then do a search for boot animation maker, and download it, follow the prompts, and you have a bootanimation

I'm running jelly bean on the kindle fire. It's android 4.1 flashed on to the kf, with kernel 3.0 unofficial. And BAC isn't working cause it's on a rom and I can't flash it using twrp 2.1 so i need to do it with root explorer. Anyways it stores the bootanimation.zip file at system/ mediaa. I can get the picture perfectly. But no sound. And for some reason there's no system/media/sounds file and when I try making it with the sub folder it just ignores it. It would look like this. System/media/sounds/poweron/xxxxxx.mp3. Anyway I want Dr who bootloader with sound that can be flashed. And if I posted in the wrong thread I'm sorry go easy on me I'm only 15
here is a zip file that contains the g920F boot animations. this gets rid of the big white tmobile screen on boot up. put all the bootanimations in the system/media folder and set permissions to 0644. put the 2 audio files in the system/media/audio/ui folder and set permissions to 0644.
Thanks for sharing. But to ditch the obnoxious white T-Mobile screen, all you must do is go to /system/media and rename "bootsamsungloop.qmg" to "bootsamsungloop.qmg.bak" and reboot.

You could do that but you don't get the boot animation that the international Roms have with their loop qmg file. Which is the point of this post. Plus you don't get the international boot sound which I like better than T-Mobile.

Thanks (I#m not completely sure, if i had to use it, because german t-mobile seems to only change the files in csc_contents directory)
to make it work, i had to rename
"PowerOn.ogg" "bootsamung.qmg" and "shutdown.qmg"
to
"PowerOn.ogg.bak" "bootsamung.qmg.bak" and "shutdown.qmg.bak"
after that i had stock samsung logo back. don't know why t-mobile replaced such a simple logo with it burning-in-the-eyes-bright t-mobile log..

you should keep the poweron.ogg file. apparently renaming/ removing it causes system slowdown and spam for the search for the file. im going to try and see if the international poweron.ogg can be used.
Yes the international poweron.ogg can be used. It's in the zip in the first post. It doesn't show anything down.

Sorry, forgot to point this out. I only renamed the files in /system/csc_contents/. The files in /system/media/ was not touched (but bevore replaced with the one of the op. wich didn't work unless i renamed the files in csc_contents). So PowerOff.ogg and PowerOn.ogg are on the system and will not slowdown or spam.
Thanks for this... Huge improvement over that blinding white T-Mo screen. And the T-Mo jingle made me cringe
Thanks to this! Worked like a charm!

False. It does indeed work on Samsung devices. I've flashed it to my own galaxy s6 twice and has worked both times.
