[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
There is no "Android L Preview" for the Nexus 4. The 625x380 frames all come from the Nexus 5 Preview; the Nexus 7 has 720x450 frames in its preview.

The animations in this thread are spot-on for the Nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
You have part of the reason but I think I did this from an adapted version for the nexus 4 that was smaller than the nexus 5 original one. So upscaling is happening in the nexus 5

EDIT: Now I'm not sure :confused:
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] RusherDude:
Well, guerreromanuel answered you one post below. He started working for something "downscaled" for the Nexus 4, so it's not appropiate in size for the Nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
These are the previews available for Android L:

https://developer.android.com/preview/index.html

Show me where Google has an Android L preview for the Nexus 4.

If you download a Nexus 5 preview ROM and pull the bootanimation.zip, the frames are sized 625x380.

If you pulled an Android L animation from the Nexus 4 forums, it probably came from a Nexus 5 preview. You're actually viewing the animation on the N4 larger than it should be, if you want to keep the original ratio to screen height.

As the N4 isn't actually 720p (it has a screen width of 768 rather than 720), for the N4, the "proper" image size in relation to screen:

- height would be 417x253

- width would be 444x270
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
Thats true, then I may be seeing it bigger than it should in my nexus 4 and it is the correct size in the nexus 5. I upscaled the v2big with the desc.txt. did you fixed that in the v3?

EDIT: Yes, you also fixed that :good::)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
UPDATED OP.

I was mistaked. The V3 has the nexus 5 correct size BUT ALSO HAS THE CORRECT RESOLUTION (no loose of sharpness...)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
Personally, I think the N5 animation on the N5 is too small. I'd leave any version for the N4 "N5-sized". It's clearer.

In my N5 Boot Animations thread, I've taken the N7 animation (720 pixels wide) and scaled it to 1080 pixels wide. I think it's clearer and better.

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 PM ----------

Again, I did no scaling for your original. I only put a 1080x384 background behind it. I also adjusted the desc.txt accordingly.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] RusherDude:
Now I'm confused..

Now what versions would be real "N5"-sized? v1 and v3? would v2 be too big and so look very small on a N5? all of them would look big on a N4???
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
I'm seeing three animations in this thread:

V2

V2 Big

V3

V2 and V3 will display the same on the N5, and are "original". "V2 Big" is V2 with the frames scaled to 938x570 in the desc.txt file.

Too big? That's your call. I think the frames maxed-out look great.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] RusherDude:
Ok thank you.

What I noticed is that they don't play at the same speed than the gifs he pasted. the first version (30fps) goes extremely fast, and v2 and v3 go imho too slow :(. I agree anyway that v2 big looks better than v2/v3 tho :D

Edit: I noticed that there is some problem because the animation seems different, the red ball for example never moves from the top right corner. In the gif he posted, the red ball moves from corner to corner and looks much

better?

Edit2: The problem is that v3 is missing half the animation!!! v2 and v2 big are OK, v3 is missing like half of the animation, it's bucling through the fase "part2" (but it has a lot less files than v2 or v2big) again and again, thats why it looks so damn slow.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
I'll check it out. Odd. I'm not sure what's up. I'll fix it and get an updated link.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] RusherDude:
Thanks! but I'm testing it on Nexus 5 pure stock. Maybe its supposed to work like this here?

I just see that the part 2 in v2 or v2big have 144 files to loop, while v3's part 2 only has 82. v3 also seems to have less files on part 1 and maybe more.. any reason for this?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
I'm counting 144 files (0 -143) in part2.

Try this one:

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2985262&d=1414286940

I'm thinking that guerreromanuel linked to my Android L N7 Animation, not the one above. The N7 version has 82 frames in part2.

If you look in the desc.txt, the size listed is 1080x480, not 1080x384. The animation order is different for N7 in the dot order. The actual N7 animation is 13% larger.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
I reuploaded the link that you wrote in this thread :eek:

Is this the correct link? :laugh:
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
Yes. Please verify that you're seeing 144 frames in part2 and the desc.txt shows 1080x384.

These things happen....
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
Yes, all perfect :o

Updated OP with v3.1 (the one that should have been the v3)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] peachpuff:
Doesn't work, seems like it just loops part4 for some reason.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
I've looked into the desc.txt and all is correct. Maybe is a problem in your end because noone more has said anything (and it works for me). Tell me more info to see if I can fix it for you. Nexus 5? Rom? kernel?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
I'm seeing no issues with RastaKat 4.4.4. It goes all the way to the Android logo then completes.

Fixed 1080pbig. I don't have a 1080p device to try. How is it now?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] kamilmirza:
it is fixed now :good:

looks a bit pixelated to me :eek:
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
It should be a little for fine eyes because I only resized it ;)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
The Nexus 9 Lollipop animation is 938 pixels wide. Might be a good place to start for larger devices. You could also use it for the "big" version for the N5.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
Yep but not for me. I don't work for free, I did the 720pbig for me based on the nexus5 one and easy adapted the rest for share but I'm not thinking at all in redoing all based on that nexus 9 one that I will not use and after receiving 0 beers (yes, zero). It has not been easy at all. Try yourself.

P.S.: if I received beers from now they are for the already done work. And they won't make me make the one you are asking. Btw if I have not received a single one until now, I don't expect something different. :rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
No sweat. We talked about this before: I don't do this for money. I have fun with animations and enjoy being part of the open source community. It's tough charging for a concept that is essentially "free" to begin with (there are many free and available animations out there that you're competing against).

If this was a planned money-maker for you, you're in for a long ride. ;)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
I think you got it. I am not working here so I won't do that animation that I will not use.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] alen1901:
But still you are asking people to donate. I dont want to be rude, but there are people that done much more complex and harder work then yours, and they didnt ask for money, or they just said: "donate button is there, you can donate if you like my work". But you are writing over and over that you wont work for free, you ask for money, then you will make a bootanimation. I know its hard to make what you made, but your statements and a way of dealing with this is insulting for other devs,themers etc which work for free and which work many many more days then you do. I spent a lot of hours into learning and theming galaxy 3, nexus s, galaxy s2, nexus 4, nexus 5, and you know how many times i asked to be paid? None. I did this for free, only remembering people where thanks button is. So its kinda lame to ask for a money - for bootanimation.. Also, overall, people really dont like when someone is demanding to be paid, especially on forums. Share your work, be genreous and kind, and it is more likely that people would make a donation. Please dont find this post offendive, its just a constructive criticism.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
+1.

No offense OP, but if you want money I'd start source building ROMs and leave a donate button in the thread. Or make a couple CM11 themes for custom ROMs and list them on the Play Store.

What you did in this thread isn't all that difficult, just time consuming. If anyone wanted these results, they can just take time and do it. If you want to get paid for your time, maybe make something people don't how to accomplish themselves so if they want it, they pay for it.

Reading over this thread and you keep asking for money is rude to me. You realize you're on one of the biggest websites dedicated to OPEN SOURCE, correct? Yet you come here and act all ticked off that no one paid you! Not cool man, not cool. Just because you're not working does not mean it's our job to pay you because you did something and shared it with us. No one asked you for this and no one put a bounty on it.

Like Alen said above, you have any idea how many came before you and just offered free work to the community (think Xposed, themes of all sorts, etc.) ? And you come here editing a boot animation and get annoyed because people haven't paid you? It's very unbecoming and that attitude would even keep me from buying any paid work you put out just because how you act.

Like he said above, I'd look elsewhere if you were banking on getting paid for this.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
Peace, Folks!

I think the point guerreromanuel was making was that he doesn't have the larger devices, and he's not willing to put the effort into that. That's A-OK in my book, and it's his time and his call.

I appreciate the work and effort that guerreromanuel put into his animations. Kudos to him for his hard work. I encourage him to continue with the Android community, and hope he experiences nothing but success in his endeavours.

I'm also hoping that people wanting to earn some cash in this community find a balance between open source and effort.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
That's fine, but he's asking about it in a real immature way. All the real developers here who accept donations do just that. They accept them when given. They don't expect them. Like Alen said, the developers will place a link, or they'll just have a donation link on their profile and not even post one in the thread. He's literally asking for donations. Look at his response on the last page!

"P.S.: if I received beers from now they are for the work already done. And they won't make me make the one you are asking."

In other words, I'll do what you ask if I get money for it. HOWEVER, since I've received $0 so far, any donations granted to me will be for all of my previous work so even if I get paid today I'm not going to do it until I get paid again...at least several times.

Scummy, IMHO. Donations are when someone sees the work you've done and appreciates it enough to give you a bit of money for it. Not even a lot, could just be a dollar or two, but it shows you support them enough to want to help out their financial situation or motivate them to keep going and doing what they're doing.

He's just straight up asking for money. Like one of those bums in the city that walks up to your car while you're stopped at a red light and cleans your windshield and expects payment for it. Like WTF, I didn't ask you to do that for me and you're going to expect compensation for it? At least here we can ignore the requests for $ without OP breaking my windows.

Maybe if he wants to get paid he should go out and find a JOB?! Or am I just crazy for thinking that? Developers just put a link and let it be. This guy has made specific mentions to donations a half dozen times in this thread. Plus his OP. Plus he is saying he won't even consider doing a 1080p version he won't use unless he gets paid enough for it. Oh but wait, even when he does get paid he won't even do it because that payment is going towards his old work. So once he gets at least a few more, he might, MAYBE consider it. Scummy. I haven't ever seen anyone on this site fishing for donations like him, lol.

And don't take this as thinking I do not support people who do hard work on XDA. You couldn't be more wrong. You literally cannot find a N5 kernel developer that I haven't either directly donated to or bought their app. I've donated to Mahdi on SEVERAL occasions. Same with a few other ROM developers here and in the GNex forums. TeamBlackOut. Countless CM7/9/10/11 themes on the Play Store... You get the picture. When I see all the actual HARD WORK and time some people put in to present such a well polished piece of software with such a high attention to detail and are humble enough not to ask anything at all, I really feel compelled to donate. This is the exact opposite. This guy makes more or less basic edits to a .zip file that Google created that took him probably no more than a few hours (shouldn't even be that long if he has the correct knowledge & tools) and he's expecting & refusing to continue until he gets paid. Pretty pathetic IMHO.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] kamilmirza:
true that ?

that's why I stopped using his bootanimation, no offense OP :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
Read carefully. I was not asking for money. I said I won't do it with or without donations.

P.S. and i'm pretty sure that noone will make it

I don't have time for reading the other answers

Thanks a lot to the OP. Works great on my Moto X 2014.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] The-Droidster:
There's a noticeable gap between the boot logo and start of the bootanimation. I think the reason for that is a blank file in part0. But I dont know much about it. Can someone take a look? Probably the description file needs to be edited.

Thanks a lot man, I have a little request:

could you make a flashable zip of this version as well?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58190179&postcount=52

Thank you so much :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Curiousn00b:
If you want to learn, it's pretty simple. ;)

1st, you need Win-RAR or 7-Zip. Next, you rename it to bootanimation.zip, open the flashable zip, and replace it with the bootanimation you want flashable.

In other words, thanks. [emoji14] I didn't know there was a fixed version. I really love this compared to the lower quality one. I'll make a flashable if you can't do it, unless someone beats me to it. [emoji14]

EDIT: Flashable zip added for the gap-less version at the start of the bootanimation, credits to [MENTION=4661840]The-Droidster[/MENTION] [MENTION=5075747]guerreromanuel[/MENTION]

This appears to be the Bigger version that looks better on tablets. Going to attempt it myself to fix the smaller version.

I managed to edit the smaller version as well. Created 2 flashable zips for both with no gap at the start. I now know how to edit the desc.txt file in bootanimations now too. :D

IMHO, the smaller version looks better, and it's the same size as the one that comes with our Nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] provolinoo:
Thanks a lot for the zip :D

I'm using it on OnePlus One (5.5 at 1080p) and it looks great
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] VVMM:
Just updated to the latest cm12 nightly (with white bootanimation) and now the colored flying dots, before the "android" word appears, do not show up. Instead, only the "android" word is showing up and it stays so until boot is finished. Has something changed in CM? Do I need to modify something in the zip?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] guerreromanuel:
No idea, ask CM12 devs. :eek:
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Eelviny:
Had the same problem too - Have you checked the permissions of the zip when you put it in? It needs to have 644 permissions, or -rw-r--r--.

[IMG="File Manager Properties"]http://i.imgur.com/WOui0pGl.png[/IMG]

If it has the wrong permissions, it goes to the default boot animation, which in this case is an "android" word.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] LiamAtkins90:

[Motorola Droid RAZR] halojunky:
So I have a droid razr that has (Safestrap 3.73 with TWRP 2.7.0.0)

I flashed a custom rom onto it; a 4.4.4 version and it was working fine for a few days. The phone died overnight, and I charged it to full battery yesterday. After doing so it will no longer boot to the operating system.

The phone can boot to recovery, and the options can be fiddled with there, however I cannot get the phone to get past the blue logo with the spinning arrows. It will stay there indefinitely...

I do not have an external SD card for the phone, and my pc will not recognize the phone in spite of having the drivers for the phone installed before hand. I have tried to wipe/factory reset multiple times and yet it will always get stuck at the blue logo. The option for the stock rom is greyed out in the boot section, and I really need my phone to get some functionality back to it.

I do not have any other image for recovery installed on the phone, only the current rom and gapps are on the install section. I have wiped and tried to reflash but I always get the same result.

Where do I proceed from here? I am very confused and could use some help as to what to do to restore functionality... personally id prefer to go back to stock image but am having a hard time locating the us verizon factory image online, not that I can even get it onto the phone.

Any idea why I get "cLaunch is not a valid Pocket PC application" when I try to install on Cingular 8525?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] decknologist:
Download the cab file from http://pachome1.pacific.net.sg/~welic/claunch.html and copy it to your device, for example place it in \windows\program files\ and then browse to that folder using your file explorer and tap on the file. It will then ask you where you wish to install. Select 'Device'.

If you have downloaded an .exe you can run it on your pc without the device connected and then simply extract the cab file from within your pc's activesync folders and then copy it to the device.

I guess you are getting that error as you are attempting to run an .exe file intended to be run on a pc desktop.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DinCahill:
The problem I have is that the icons I use appear incorrectly. The odd pixel is missing and the number of missing pixels depends on the icon. They display fine in the Change Icon screen and in the Windows photo viewer, but not on the Today screen.

Edit: OK, it seems that these pixels are turning up as transparent. All of the ready-made cLaunch icons which have transparency have that pink colour. Maybe some of the colours in the icons are too close to that pink. Any way to turn transparency off?
