This thread is dedicated to finding HD Boot Animations. I want this thread to be as open as possible, so please post whatever you find and I will add it to the OP. Even if you make one yourself, and want to share with the rest of the community, this is for you.

Installation:

Your boot animations are stored here, where you will need root access to replace:

The easiest way I replace my boot animations is by using Root Explorer, or something similar. Rom Toolbox appears to be working, as well.

For boot UP animations (after initial splash screen) rename or remove the vzw_bootup.zip and replace it with one of your choosing. I believe it has to be named "vzw_bootup.zip" or else it will not work. When I named it "hTC_boot.zip", it just booted up the stock android (a black screen with blue letters that spell "Android"). If someone has a fix for the "hTC_boot.zip" animation, please let me know and I will update the OP with the correct information.

For boot DOWN animations (powering off the device), name the zip file "hTC_downanimation.zip".

/system/customize/resource

if you rename or remove the vzw_bootup.zip then you will get a stock android boot animation. it's a black screen with blue letters that spell android.

I am actually using these two

LEFT - boot animation

RIGHT- down animation

you can find them here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51421152&postcount=1

Do we just flash via recovery to get the new boot logos? i hate verizon all over my phone.

EDIT: nevermind i just installed it using rom toolbox. much easier than manually installing it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] hgoldner:
Interesting. I opened up the zip's to look at the png's and see what the dimensions were and they were all very wide but very short.

NVM - Was opening up the down animations, not the boot. My bad. Now to get working on getting my custom animation ported over.....
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] BFirebird101:
I'm currently using the white boot animations, and they look just fine. They aren't distorted or anything.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Karl:
got it
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:
Worked great. Changed my initial splash screen, got rid of the red text and now added these cool bootani's. Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] UgXvibe:
For the HTC boot up animation the file is 'hTC_bootup_one.zip'

For the HTC boot down animation the file is 'hTC_downanimation.zip'

If we make the up and down animations in the op those names and replace the original ones it should work correct? I have not tried it yet, just wondering.

Just copied over to the resource folder, and changed the name (use both the vzw/htc naming) and changed the permissions on it but still a black screen on boot up (also change the desc.txt file to make pause 5 instead of 60 since i think the max can only be 10 anyway) but still no luck not sure where the issue is..

For some reason, I had to delete the HTC boot up zip from the folder, or else I also got the black screen.

So the vzw zip is my custom one.

Ok so it seems like the issue is the fact that the picture have to be exactly 1080x1920 else it will not work.

That is the case for the white boot animation but the black is 1080x230

question

I want to change my boot and down annimation but for some reason I only have read access to the system directory. am I missing something here? Rooted, s-off and custom Rom.. any help appreciated.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Gungrave223:
He just need to have root. The black boot up animation is a hit or miss but there was no issues with the white for me.

Step One: Copy files to your sd card.

Step Two: One phone using a file explorer like Es File Explorer copy the file from your sd card

Step Three: Browser to your device root folder (if using es file explorer click on the "/" ) the go to dir system/customize/resource/

Step Four: add ".bak" to htc_bootup_one.zip, htc_downanimation.zip, vzw_bootup.zip (you do this just in case you have issues then you can delete the new files are restore the old one without issues)

Step Five: paste the bootup animation in the resource folder and rename it to vzw_bootup.zip then again if use es file explorer, long press the zip file then at the botton right click the more 3 dot icon then then click properties and where you see permissions, click change.

you will see a section that says owner, group, other, then above that read, write, execute

change this so that owner as read/write check......group/others have read check and everything else unchecked

Step Six: paste the boot down animation and rename it to hTC_downanimation.zip and set the same permissions to it as you did for the boot up

Step Seven: restart your phone and enjoy :victory:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thunderbls:
appologies

In my last post I was making a statement that my phone is rooted s-offed and have a custom rom installed.. just no write access to system files.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dm5530:
/system should be mounted as read-only. Remount as R/W to make the change then remount as RO.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thunderbls:
Yes, normally I am able to do so by selecting that option when in root explorer (as shown in someone's previous post) but it isn't there.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Gungrave223:
So i misunderstood your post, which custom rom do you have installed?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thunderbls:
I have skyfall installed.. same issue on stock as well. tried esfile as well both granted su permission but unable to write to system or modify files. with root explorer there has always been the toggle next to ro but it's not there.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Gungrave223:
I had Skyfall install until this morning and it working when using es file explorer.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thunderbls:
I do not believe this to be a rom issue as it still occurred on stock.

Well it is working for me with just a couple caveats. I have to use another app to fix the orientation and I have to use a keyboard/mouse to navigate, which isn't that big of an issue for me since it's nice to be able to type in my search queries easily.

And I believe in post #4 screwyluie linked me to the kindle fire apk. I tried that out and it still had the orientation issue so I just went with the official apk from spotify.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruinerror:
I decompiled the Spotify APK (latest version from my S4) and removed any android:screenOrientation="portrait" attributes from the AndroidManifest.xml file. It now shows up in the correct orientation for me. I used an attached keyboard/mouse to login, but after that I've just been using the Amazon remote to click through things on my playlists (on some of the screens, it helps to push the the left before scrolling up or down). If you hit the search box, the on screen keyboard shows up... so while it's not perfect, I think you can get by with the standard remote.

hey everyone

i recently corrupted the efs folder on my s3 and gave back to samsung under warranty. they told me that the s3 has a corrupt mother board and that my warranty was only in Tehran (I live in dubai) so i gave the phone back to the store where i bought it

he told me he would repair it he said he would change the motherboard. I got it back today and on opening the app drawer i found superuser with a bunch of adb requests i want to update but i'm scared that he just patched the modem and didn't change the motherboard. If i update will i lose my connectivity again? And how do i tell if the modem is patched? Also is it safe to update?

Hi,

I have unlocked my HTC one using HTC dev tool. Rooted with Hboot. However, i had a problem while doing s-off. I followed the procedure from one youtube channel and it was very thorough and understandable for an amateur user like me. However, my one big mistake is that I assume the procedure works perfectly and hence, i continued with flashing a Google Edition Rom. What makes it worse is that , i didn't back up the storage. Then, this 'BootLoop' problem happens.I have tried some tools that push the Rom from PC to the phone. It doesn't work.

Now, I'm using HTC one tool kit by Squabbi to solve the problem.

But, my the adb devices is missing from PC device manager.

Somebody please be kind to save me and my HTC One.

Thanks a million times :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
First of all, don't use a toolkit. Go into the bootloader then select fastboot. Then on your computer, open up cmd and type "fastboot devices". If that works, just post here again and I'll try to help.

If that doesn't work, you either don't have the proper drivers, or something else is wrong. The last resort would be to flash the RUU for your model. That almost always works, but will wipe everything.

EDIT: The reason why it says adb device not found is that the phone needs to boot in order to use usb debugging. If it doesn't boot, then it will never work. So do what I said above and let me know the result.
