XD you gana make me cry. Just few ones gave me feedback about the animations so i really dont know if those like Or not , so, really really tnx i appreciate

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] johan81:
No need to cry ;) it really is a nice animation, I am a real fan of the android itself and there aren't many that are trueish to the original design, these are.

I am terrible at designing, my art work always ends up like something a 6 year old would make hehe. I do not mind putting in my time, I am just sure it will not amount to anything good in the end with this.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
if you guys like the android figur that much, i could make a little something for you? in return of this guide... ;)

any suggestions/ideas? :)

Android raping Apple while Blackberry watches.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] johan81:
Extra options are always welcome!

I would love another green android animation where the droid boots up, the problem is (as I mentioned earlier ;) ) I am not that creative :laugh:.

The thing I like this much about the V2 animations is the way the droid boots up and shuts down, I love to think of my SGS3 as some sort of futuristic life companion (anyone seen the movie Robot and Frank?). The way I modified the V2 boot animation is like this:

View attachment bootanimation.zip

Though any more inspiration doesn't come to my mind at the moment.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
sooo, some futuristic android raping an apple, while mr. blackberry is wathcing? seems legit enough... :P well, first of, i dont think its tolerated to make such thing.. some people might get offended by it.. but i like the idea though ;)

hmm.. how about android eating a blackberry, then take a bite of an apple, and then throws the apple to the ground and steps on it, so that it get squashed..? and from the squashing, it splashes to fill the screen and "Galaxy S Advance"-logo fades in?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] egingell:
That's just as good.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
ok. thats what i stick with then.. will work on it as much as i possibly can.. and keep you guys updated throughout the progress :)

take care

here it is, V2 no logos, only android

tested

, at first time it did not run, so i delete my no frills cpu "system" app and then it works

LOL!!!! XD

sorry SeraphSephiroth i could not update my SGSA firmware to the indian firm today, gave me 1 or 2 more days and i will test it with the stock the bootanimation.

i have to finish the queue animations for friends 2 roms first

thank you anbech
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SeraphSephiroth:
Thanks but I just installed a custom ROM so it doesn't really matter anymore ^-^
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] johan81:
Great, thanks! Now it is like I wanted it to be, you have helped me out a lot.

Sounds nice, I will see how it will end up ;)

Though I myself wouldn't opt for something attacking the other systems, but focus on its own power ;) that is the power of android! :victory:

I use these on my SGS3 though, so, a 1280*720 version would be nice as well.

This is a great tutorial. I create shutdown.qmg for Samsung I997 with success. Thank you!

Do you know how to create two boot animations (bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg)?

I tried to create bootsamsungloop.qmg in the same way as shutdown.qmg with no success.

Dimension is not correct (no 480x800). The animation shows two frames side by side with 24xx400 (I used Spring Model).

Any idea?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] xessus:
i guess its the same function than bootanimation.ZIP where Part0 and Part1 folders play, "Part0 = bootsamsung.qmg = lineal animation" and the last one Part1 = bootsamsungloop.qmg = loop animation" about the image dimensions you need the use same device resolution (my device SGSA = 480 x 800)

well ill install right now the stock kernel and test :good:

ill edit and tell you what happen with the "custom stock format" animation

Edited: 1st attempt

fail

, copied custom QMG renamed to bootsamsungloop.qmg and replaced

Edited: 2nd attempt

fail

, copied custom QMG renamed to bootsamsung.qmg and replaced (same stock animation)

Edited: 3rd attepmt

fail

, replaced both custom QMG and still same stock animation showed, those files didnt contain the bootanimation (searchig for the animation)

this will take a long time to find the bootanimation file

sorry
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
Thank you for your quick reply though it is not successful.

I tried to create both bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg. None of them is working.

Problem 1: No right "Model" to use

Problem 2: No 480x800 dimension

Problem 3: So created qmg will play with overlap with the home screen of launcher.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
i will help you guys out later today, by making a small youtube tutorial on how i do it..

think that you have misunderstood something, but not quite sure what it is.. because the qmg files is native bootanimation for stock sammy roms, then it should work..
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
Are you saying that you will help to create bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg ? If this is the case, it will be great.

Expect your YouTube tutorial.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
Thank you for your YouTube tutorial.

Did you flash them to your phone and test them?

I used the same procedure and created bootsamsungloop.qmg. After installation, I got the results shown in attachment. Do you know what I am wrong?

I did another experiment:

I used the stock shutdown.qmg for bootsamsungloop.qmg (rename and flash in /system/media) in order to see the difference of properties between bootsamsungloop.qmg and shutdown.qmg. Eventually, I obtained the same results as I shown in attachment. Does this mean that Samsung Theme Designer can only create "shoutdown.qmg"? Your YouTube clearly demonstrated the work for bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg. I think I have done something wrong.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
what dimensions are your frames? look to me that they are only 240x400, and not 480x800 as they should be for your device..

when importing your frames into Theme Designer, you dont scale them down, right?

EDIT:

yeah, tried my ones from the tutorial, and they work fine on my device..
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] xessus:
Tnx anbech for your tutorial :D

Can I add it to the main?

Enviado desde mi GT-I9070 usando Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
My frame dimension is 480x800.

When I created the .qmg, I selected the Model GT-S5520(Spring). Below Select Showcase" panel, it shows Resolution: 240 X 400.

When importing my frames into Samsung Theme Designer, it shows this. Ruler region is 240x400.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
of cause mate.. did actually thought about it myself.. then everyone can see it "live" if they are in doubt :)

you shall just ignore the rulers in the preview.. everything in the preview will just misguide you, so ignore everything you see.. :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
I follow the procedure in your YouTube carefully and created bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg. Flashed in I997 and I897, still not correct. Is there any trick? Or you have magic hands?

Can you create bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg with 480x800 resolution using the attached bootanimation and let me flash? Thank you!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:

just noticed that i made an error in the youtube video....

forgot to convert from Frames per second to milliseconds..

but check in the bottom of the video description.. ive wrote about it there.. and made a annotation in the video as well... stupid me........................................ :P

Added video to Main post :highfive:
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
First of all, thank you very much for creating two .qmg files.

I would like to report my flashing result to you. I have taken screen shots during animations. Unfortunately, the problem is the same as what I reported before. My phones are I897 and I997.

Cheers!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
cool :)

well, i start to believe that there might be something wrong with your device then.. the colors of the frames isnt correctly either.. how does it look with your stock bootanimation?

did a small comparison of your devices, compared to my i9300.. and they all have 16million colors support.. so dont know what else to do, except that your rom might be damaged or something...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
When I use the two stock Galaxy S boot animation files, no any problem exists. I tested newly created QMG animations in both I897 phone and I997 phones, both stock ROM and customized ROM. Results are just the same. If it is ok in your i9300, I will conclude that these newly-created QMG animations are not suiatble for I897 and I997.

When I use stock shutdown.qmg for bootsamsungloop.qmg, the result is the same. This tells me that format of shutdown.qmg is different from bootsamsung.qmg/bootsamsungloop.qmg (at least I897/I997 requires). So the prblem may not come from animation files. Insteadd, it may be from either phone or ROM.

I will keep monitoring this issue.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
you might be right..

try this for testing:

scale the frames 200% , so its 960x1600, instead of 480x800.. then make a bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg , and try flash that.. im not at my desktop pc now, so cant make the qmg files for you.. but try that, and see if that fills the screen..

and report back your results.. :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
I did experiment with 960x1600 resolution as you proposed. No success. I attached the results (screen shots for boot twice). 960x1600 frames are two big to allow me to upload. I have uploaded original 480x800 frames for reference.

It seems that bootsamsungloop.qmg did not work.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
I would like to let you know my lastest progress.

Motivated by your idea, I prepare frames at 960x800 resolution (picture is streched by twice in 480 direction). The results of both QMGs are almost correct. But the color is still not correct (it seems some colors are not displayed). See my attachment.

Note: my shutdown.qmg shows correct/perfect color.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
yea, at least the frames fit the screen now.. hmm, looks like its only 256 color support.. try make the frames into 256 color mode, and report back how that looks.. :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
Used 256 color mode, no change. Frames fit the screen. Color is still not correct, the same as before.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] xessus:
Are you exporting png bits with Alpha Chanel? Because that could be the problem. Try only 16bits no Alpha Chanel

Enviado desde mi GT-I9070 usando Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
No success with 16 bit images.

I used Adobe Photoshop to modify images. I can output as 16 bits/Channel. But I do not know how to get no Alpha Channel. Any instruction?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] xessus:
... Shhhugar.... You are right but auto Alpha Chanel is still on :/

Use a black background then

Enviado desde mi GT-I9070 usando Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
well, i dont think the issue relies of alpha pngs, because the first bootanimation.zip you shared was the cyanogenmod bootanimation.. which was all jpgs..

really running out of ideas here..

have you tried bootanimation.zip method instead? if yes, how did that work? and if not, check if you have a "samsungani"-file in your "/system/bin"-folder, if so then try my custom bootanimation enable flashzip.. here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31833122&postcount=4

i just want to know how that looks, because if that look alright, then there must be some custom qmg support issues in this method...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
Yes. I have been using animation.zip for a while. It works normally. Everything is ok. In /system/bin folder, I have samsungani file.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
hmm.. that give me the conclusion that the way we make the qmg files, isnt supported by your device.. have you tried choosing the other models on the list in theme designer? just for tryout..

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
then im out of ideas then... :eek:

perhaps if another user with the device you got could verify the exact same, we could conlude that its not supported by that particular device.. can you find one or two users from the forum who got the device as well, and ask them to try out..?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] mono28aug:
I have been looking for an answer but the tutorial thread do not feel the need to answer me :confused::rolleyes:

Anyways what can we do if our frames in boot animation gets stuck and then resumes again.. Kinda lags....

Thank you
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] xessus:
That happen but not all the time, its about the rom and what is loading . I have no solution

Enviado desde mi GT-I9070 usando Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
This problem has been perfectly solved.

1. The two qmg files (bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg) created by Samsung Theme Designer are correct. Your tutorials are all working.

2. When the so-created bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg are used in Samsung SGH-I897 and SGH-I997, both dimension and color cannot be correctly dispalyed. The solution to this is eventually simple. It lies in the file "samsungani". My solution is: 1) Get samsungani file from GT-I9070 (other ROM may work, I did not try out), 2) Copy it and overwrite into /system/bin. Done!!!

Note: It would not work if you just use one of newly-created bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg while keeping the other original one. This means that the two QMG files bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg should be either both new or both original.

Thank you all for your supports, ideas and motivations!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] johan81:
Since it still doesn't work for me for whatever reason, I would like to ask you to make a qmg bootanimation for me. I am going to flash 4.2.2 soon and having a qmg is easier than flashing the mod zips, rooting and just replacing the qmg would be so much easier. Would you mind making it from this attachment?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] AndyYan:
Never know any 4.2.2 custom ROM (it should be an AOSP-based one, not a stock-based, no?) needed qmg files. I think they just use bootanimation.zip straight. (Maybe I'm wrong, I know nothing about the device discussed)

nice finding mate!

*[MENTION=5139272]xessus[/MENTION], you should add that to the OP.. :)

have you tried following the youtube tutorial ive made? it should be pretty straghtforward..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD_J-Sdchlg

youre partly right.. aosp uses the bootanimation.zip as default, but there is 4.2.2 custom rom available for the S4:

I am planning to flash this: http://www.sammobile.com/2013/05/20...re-for-the-galaxy-s-iii/#.UZnJ_TDRoAY.twitter

That is a non custom ROM I want to root and use the bootanimation for.

Yes I have and I really do not understand why I don't get this to work, but I just cannot.... Very frustrating, but it is what it is and I am hoping that someone will convert it in the two qmg files I will soon need ;)

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] johan81:
If I use thise qmg files I get a rather nice android text bootanimation, though my zip contains an animation of a green droid. Is it my phone that doesn't take the qmg or have you perhaps mixed up the bootinamation?

Thanks for your help!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
Thats because you have custom bootanimation enabled.. Just disable it, and it will read the qmg files instead of the bootanimation.zip..

The green android text is showing because it cannot find any bootanimation.zip..

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
You can try the attached qmg bootanimation based on your bootanimation.zip. I did not test it since I do not have your phone model.

Note: This will modify/overwrite your

samsungani

. Before flashing it in recovery mode, please go to /system/bin to backup your original "samsungani".

Good luck!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] johan81:
Thanks to you both Anbech and SunnyOK. While it seems that with bootanimation.zip you can use lower resolution files without problems you cannot use that with QMG files. I have flashed SunnyOK's file and manually pasted the files of Anbech and it shows the bootanimation, though four times and looks interlaced.

Ahhh well, at least I got to understand this, I know it is a bit off topic, but Anbech, you have made that enable bootanimation file for 4.2.1 for SGS3, do you know if that works with the leaked 4.2.2 FW as well?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:
try it, havent tried myself.. but if you try it, please pm me about it :)

cheers
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] johan81:
Yep! It works ;)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] anbech:

EDIT:

remember to get the disable flashzip as well, then you can just flash that when you want to use qmg files instead ;)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] xessus:
sorry i was bussy with another animation project and cant test the animation until now :)

the flash fail, so i copy manually the files but didnt work, ill ask for the stock samsungani or install stock kernel to see how this respond :good:

Added your feedback to main post!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] SunnyOK:
I tested it on I897. It works. However, bootsamsung.qmg is too long (250 frames). bootsamsungloop.qmg never got opportunity to display.

i thought the same when i made the qmg files for him.. but thought, "what the heck.." , as i was in a bit of a hurry :P

i usually set my frames total limit as 160-180.. thats for both intro and loop part in total.. and with 20fps, works like a charm :)

When I see the file properties I find just a diference in the owner group... mine have sd card... and the originals has root... also dont know if that is the problem... but when I try to change that, th system replies that a system fil cant be change... please help...:good:
