[T-Mobile LG G3] greasydego:
hello all,

i have a T-Mobile LG G3 d851 running sw version V10R. I have tried using purpledrake, towelroot, and stump root. When I ran purpledrake, it started out working just fine but when it came to permaroot, there was a quick error (I only noticed the error because it was in red lettering) as soon as the error came the window closed down, and my device was still not rooted. then i ran towelroot, the message read "This phone isn't currently supported". after that failed attempt i ran stumproot. the message i recieved from stumproot was "device is patched, sorry!"

:confused::confused::confused:

as far as i know, currently from reading countless forums and Q&A's, stumproot failed because my android version is too up to date and i need to downgrade. i have been trying to research how to downgrade the LG G3 and havnt come up with a walk through on how to do that. now i am turning to you guys for help. Does anyone know what i should do or have any suggestions or input?your help is greatly appreciated.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] arunkarnwal1981:
I have one HTC One M8 Sprint (Non HK version). presently it has android 4.4, S-ON, sim unlocked, rooted, twrp.

i want to install lolipop rom on it. kindly guide me how to proceed with all requirements step by step. and which lolipop rom is good for daily use.

thanks

:)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ipetloudog:
We can't. Sunshine doesn't seem to work anymore to gain s-off do we are screwed until someone that doesn't support a paywall figures out how to be able to gain s-off so we can flash the RUU.

I hate this damn phone and I wish I knew how to develop myself.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
FYI you don't need to be s-off to run an RUU
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ipetloudog:
Tell that to my phone after I tried 3 different methods and it still will not flash
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
Our phones don't come s-off so why would they need to be s-off to RUU?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ipetloudog:
Beats me. I tried the external sd method. Fastboot method. Changed my CID. nothing works.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
Plenty of other people have successfully RUU'd their phones while S-on. It does require an extra step but it can be done. Also, as far as S-off with Sunshine, I believe the latest version (3.0) is compatible with Lollipop.

To the OP: Hit the second link in my sig. Scroll down to the RUU section and take a read. A link to OMJ's RUU thread can be found at the bottom of the first post of my thread. Download the latest applicable RUU (4.25.651.14 for NON-HK or 4.25.654.14 for the HK version). Follow my instructions in my thread to run the RUU on your device.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
External sd method = needs s-off so won't work for s-on users.

Fastboot method = most RUU's are exe files so most likely won't work via fastboot method.

Changed my CID = cannot be done unless you are s-off.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] -Apollo-:
But I thought if you are s-on you cannot go backwards to an older hboot version. I thought you had to be s-off if you wanted to go backwards?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
You do have to be s-off to go backwards, but just to RUU s-off is not required
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] EVOuser94:
Are you by chance using a computer, not to be a ****, but like what are some of the results and we can try to help you with using the RUU... Sometimes they are touchy and need to be done in an exact way...and patience is key

Optimized Long Bootanimations:

These bootanimations are broken into parts, and play part by part and then stop on the last frame of the bootanimation and hold that frame until the device finishes booting. (The same way stock Google bootanimations work)

I've tested these out with a couple of different devices including a very ancient first gen Moto G and they worked perfectly.

[Android Themes] Dani2070:
This bootanimations look really nice, but i cant download them too.
[Android Themes] motomotomotoG:
That's a really good idea, but sadly most devices don't do mp4 bootanimations that I know of. The only devices I know that work with .mp4 bootanimations are the Motorola Moto G/X series.
[Android Themes] motomotomotoG:
Which links are you guys having trouble with?
[Android Themes] motomotomotoG:
Text out one of the smaller bootanimations first, like running coffee or squid and see if that works, then try the one you want. A lot of people have complained that their phone bootloops if they try one of the longer bootanimations and I think that's because of the memory bug found in lollipop. Let me know your results if you decide to test it out.
[Android Themes] Dinu6397:
Can i flash these on my mi3 (indian version)using cwm recovery?
[Android Themes] motomotomotoG:
Sadly not. :(

To change the bootanimation you need access to /system on your phone, and that's impossible to do without root.

You should still be able to receive OTA after changing the bootanimation, but it might get changed to something else when you update if your phone manufacturer decides to give you a new bootanimation.
[Android Themes] JoaoMarcos:
Doesn't work in Moto G Lollipop. The animation stop in the middle and the Moto G doesn't start.

[MENTION=5745861]motomotomotoG[/MENTION] I took it upon myself to convert this boot animation to 1440x2560 and made it a gif and everything using gimp. After that, I used Jrummy's Boot Animation app to make the gif a boot animation and install on my LG V20 with a custom rooted version of Oreo. The boot animation started up just fine on my phone but it froze the phone and wouldn't boot so I had to flash a nandroid backup. Do you know how I can fix this issue? Please note that other boot animations work just fine on my phone that are 1440x2560 but this one won't for some reason and I'm trying to figure out what I need to do to fix it. My goal is to learn how to properly convert boot animations but I must be missing something.
[Android Themes] alexp1289:
snip
[Android Themes] motomotomotoG:
For this example I'm going to use the Obelix (1080p) bootanimation:

To convert it to a higher resolution what you really need to do is unzip the Obelix(1080p).zip file, open up the unzipped folder and navigate to "\system\media\bootanimation" and then resize the images within the Obelix folder, then edit the desc.txt file's first line from "1080 1920 30" and change it to "1440 2560 30". Save the file and close it. Now open up Obelix(1080p).zip with 7zip or winrar or whatever you use, and replace the images and the desc.txt file with the ones that you modified. Then close 7zip and try flashing that, that should hopefully fix your issue. Let me know if it works.

Also, make a backup of your stock bootanimation.zip file so you can easily just replace it in twrp if it doesn't work. That way you don't have to wait for TWRP to restore your entire backup each time you test it.
[Android Themes] alexp1289:
I'm going to try this when I get a chance. Also do you happen to know where I can find a CRT shutdown animation that is 1440x2560? I've been trying to find a download for that animation and I can't find one. Even if it was a smaller size I could convert it to 1440x2560 in Gimp.
[Android Themes] androcraze:
You don't have to resize the images themselves; both the 1080x1920 and 1440x2560 images are at the same ratio. Simply changing "1080 1920 30" to "1440 2560 30" in the desc.txt file will scale the images while booting on 1440p devices.
[Android Themes] motomotomotoG:
Man! Wish I knew this when I started making these! Would have saved me A TON of time. :rolleyes:
[Android Themes] androcraze:
You could just use the same 720x1280 images in 720p, 1080p, and 1440p ZIPs; just edit the desc.txt file.

My experience has been that 1080x768 or 720x1280 are about "max" for many devices; 1080x1080 images would kill the startup on some 1080p devices (particularly, my N5).

The only "caveat" to scaling is with a non-black background: scaling a 720x720 image to 1080x1080, and pushing a white background in the desc.txt file will cause a discolored line between the junction of the image border and the background. For non-black backgrounds, I always scale full-screen images (720x1280) to avoid this odd artefact.
[Android Themes] therealroyston2:
hey does this work on Samsung devices? i have a note 5
[Android Themes] androcraze:
As a general rule, if you have the factory ROM, or a derivative of the factory ROM, then "no". Samsung ROMs use a proprietary QMG format for their boot animations. You'll need to check your ROM's thread for possible boot animations.

If you've installed an AOSP/ Lineage custom ROM on your Samsung, then the animations should work.
[Android Themes] developweb:
There is QMG creation software available that you can make any custom animation of your liking.

https://xdaforums.com/chef-central/android/tutorial-samsung-qmg-boot-animation-t3255114

There was a workaround to flash a mod via TWRP to allow custom boot animations like those here to run on Samsung but it may not work with the newer phones.

https://www.xda-developers.com/add-custom-boot-animation-to-any-samsung-rom/
[Android Themes] motomotomotoG:
How do i push the background color into the desc.txt file? I tried just adding it as a third line to the file but it didn't seem to change anything.

Example:

1440 2560 30

p 0 0 RunBatman

#802222

As most of my bootanimations use the same color background this would make it really easy to port to different aspect ratios.

Thanks for the help, and thank you again for the info about being able to reuse the same 720x1280 images for all 3 sizes, it has inspired me to get in to creating bootanimations again, and to write an AutoHotKey scrip that will automate about 90% of the process for me.
[Android Themes] androcraze:
Same line.

White:

1080 720 60
c 1 90 part0 #FFFFFF -1
c 1 0 part1 #FFFFFF -1
p 240 0 part2 #FFFFFF -1
p 0 0 part3 #FFFFFF -1

or Black:

1080 720 60
c 1 90 part0 #000000 -1
c 1 0 part1 #000000 -1
p 240 0 part2 #000000 -1
p 0 0 part3 #000000 -1

the "#xxxxxx" is the hex code for the color.

That's how you push color backgrounds. For the white or another other non-black color, if you scale (say 720x480 images to 1080x720), you'll get an artefact off-color line between the background and the top edge of the image (I think that's right).

Any white background images I scale are 9:16 images, usually 720x1280. Pushing a background color is moot in that case.
[Android Themes] motomotomotoG:
Got it to work! Thank you for your help. I created a new Calvin & Hobbes bootanimation that's 323 frames long using this info, and it worked really well. :good:
[Android Themes] androcraze:
Only for non-black backgrounds, and only when scaling. I've had them appear on two devices with white backgrounds.

I'm estimating that 95% of boot animations that aren't full-screen images have black backgrounds. For those that have non-black backgrounds, either:

1. Use full-screen images as we've discussed

2. Have the images not scaled while running (pre-scale them prior to packaging)

3. Convert the the frames to have black backgrounds

We're talking a small percentage of animations, and options 1 or 2 are easy-enough.

[Android Themes] androcraze:
Ticklefish: Played with the animation you provided. That animation has full 1080x1920 frames; I've found that image frames that large can cause lockups and crashes on 1080p devices. The animation archive is massive at 26 mb.

I've tweaked the animation a bit. Please find links to updated Zelda animations for 1440p, 1080p, and 720p. These animations are targeted for Nougat 7.1 and later ROMs; they won't run correctly on Nougat 7.0 and earlier (including 6.0 Marshmallow). I've shrunk the frame sizes and zip archives considerably, and added trim files in the folders to position the frames:

[Android Themes] motomotomotoG:
Definitely! You've helped me out a ton with understanding bootanimation.zip files so i'm happy to give credit where it's due.

I was looking at the bootanimation.zip file of your zelda animation and saw that you trimmed every frame of it to skim down the filesize. Did you do that individually for each frame or did you script it in some way? That would really come in handy for really long bootanimations and slimming down their file sizes.

Does anyone have a version of the Sleeping Fox with a black background instead of the mustard yellow? Thanks in advance!
[Android Themes] ProoN:
Apologies for bringing this thread back from the dead, had a quick question.

Came across this video -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQkyfQYqlms

The guy explains how to change the boot animation, which.. not a difficult task. BUT.

His animation shows the device's actual specs upon boot.

Is there some .. magic way to do that? Like, is each line manually invoked upon boot? ie, RAM, Display Type, CPU, etc? Or did they literally just copy the specs and add the text to images so it looks as though each spec was being "called/read"?
[Android Themes] androcraze:
A direct answer: It's all fake: each image frame had the text added manually as graphics. Nothing is getting called or read from the phone's parameters. You can pull the zip file apart and see all the individual png or jpg frames; you'll see that they're static images.

I created generic N5 versions here (look for "Nexus 5 BIOS") to cover the two N5 variants:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53563830&postcount=3

Each phone model will have different specs, and every model will have variants within it. Phones have different processors, memory, storage, video, android version,, etc. I could create 50 variants of this animation, and they still wouldn't cover all of the possibilities that users would ask for.
[Android Themes] ProoN:
Yeah, that's kinda what I figured.

I've done a bit of scripting and would always try to make things as generic as possible so they'd work on a multitude of systems but was just curious if there was a way to do that with these boot "animations." Was hoping it was more than literally just being made per-device, one frame at a time, actually reading/outputting specs accordingly, etc.

They look pretty legit which is why I questioned it.

Kudos for the reply
[Android Themes] androcraze:
If you can come up with a way to make it "generic" for all devices, I'd build it. But I don't think most users would be happy with "Yes" or "OK" for all of the responses; everyone wants to see parameters.

Hello guys

I have a a5 2017 a5y17lte with brain new flashed pixel experience android 9.0 and root with magisk.

I love these animations but if i try to flash one with twrp it says succes and when booting, i don't see anything. The google animation is still there

I even tried the other method with moving to system-media with permissions but when booting it starts with another stock android animation.

If someone knows how to fix it

Please, i realy like those animations.

Edit: i also tried to delete this bootanimation files.

It worked for the (bootanimation.dark.zip) which seems to be the google animation but the other (bootanimation.zip) wich is the stock android animation comes back everytime

I think that's why i can't install the custom one.

So i need to force delete it.

Does someone know how to do that?
