Unfortunately, I am not familiar with the Zenfone 2. There may be a different process for changing the bootanimation on your phone. Check your device thread for information about changing the boootanimation and see if there is something specific to your device. The instructions I provided will work with the vast majority of phones when the default bootanimation is located in /system/media. Make sure that the bootanimation you installed with TWRP is actually the "default" for the system, and that the default location is, /system/media. You can check that several ways, but I suggest going to /system/media and either renaming the bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.bak and rebooting your phone, or extracting a COPY of the original zip to your download folder and then extracting it so you can visually verify if that is the bootanimation that shows each time you boot your phone. Easiest is to rename and reboot. If no bootanimation is shown then /system/media is the default location for your bootanimation.

YOU WILL NEED TO MOUNT YOUR SYSTEM TO R/W BEFORE YOU CAN MAKE ANY CHANGES!!!!

Once you've established where your default bootanimation is located, go to that location and select (not open or extract) the bootanimation and check the properties of the file. You should see some info regarding "PERMISSIONS, OWNER, GROUP". Write that info down so you can give the new bootanimation.zip the same settings. You won't be able to change any these properties until you have moved it into the location where the original file (now renamed, right?) is. Now, make sure your new bootanimation is named correctly BEFORE moving it to the proper location. I suggest copying it to the correct location on your phone. If successful, you will see your new bootanimation.zip in the proper location! Now, go to the properties and make sure that they are the same as your original, if not, change them to what you wrote down. Change your system back to read only and reboot. Hopefully, you will see the desired bootanimation.

If you are still not able to view the boot animation, check the screen resolution of your phone, and change the first 2 numbers of the first line of the desc.txt file to match your screen's resolution. The 3rd number is the frame rate, you can change that as well if you want to either speed it up or slow it down and then save your changes to the zip (NO COMPRESSION!).

The difference in the 2 zip file is the screen resolution and frame rate. The first version is 1080 1920 15 (for the OnePlus One) and v2 is 1440 2560 20 (for the LG G3).

The zip files are not flashable because, as I mentioned, the artwork is not mine. All I did was make it into a bootanimation. That is also why I have not included it in any of my themes.

Good Luck, I hope you get it working.
[Android Themes] Afess596:
It's all good now. xdagee's APK of the boot animation worked via the CM Themes app after installing it. The animation works as intended and looks good. Pretty simple solution. Thanks for trying to help though and for giving some insight on the matter. :)
[Android Themes] Ygor Cortes:
The Marshallow one looks huge on my Nexus 6 ?

The other ones are almost in slow motion (laggy) and doesn't have the correct timing (it finishes from nowhere) :/

Thank you a lot for your work anyway. I hope you can help me!
[Android Themes] xdagee:
What device & ROM are you on? provide more information.

If you are getting huge animation, it means you flashed the zip instead which might be higher than your device dpi.

I recommend you install the apk instead. Else check [MENTION=4431376]frantisek.nesveda[/MENTION] thread of flashable zips of Marshmallow for different dpis.
[Android Themes] Ygor Cortes:
I'm currently testing CM13. And I did use the apk. When I said it was huge, I didn't meant that it's bigger than the display itself, but it's bigger than on the stock rom. Thank you for your quick response!
[Android Themes] :
Thanks for these animations. They work great
[Android Themes] DummeGans:
I'm not sure where I went wrong was hoping someone might have an idea. Boot animation works beautifully on my oneplus one. I went through the same process (download and install apk and change it in theme manager) on my nexus 6 and reboot, still have default boot animation. Oneplus one is on cm12.1 and nexus 6 is on cm13. Sorry for the noob question.
[Android Themes] xdagee:
not sure what is wrong on your side, everything works fine here. If you can be more specific on CM13 nightly as well.
[Android Themes] DummeGans:
cm-13.0-20160216-NIGHTLY-shamu.zip this is the one I flashed to it then the pico open gapps then capps. Is that right? Thanks for the help.
[Android Themes] xdagee:
you are on a week old nightly so supposedly everything should work fine I was thinking you are on a latest nightly and is causing you issues. quick help is you should flash without capps and try again.
[Android Themes] DummeGans:
Thank you I will try to do that when I get back tonight.
[Android Themes] DummeGans:
Ready to flash but not sure which zip I should use. Would the same one be ok or should I grab a newer one? I can Google how to do the boot animation once done without capps just want to make sure I am starting fresh the right way.
[Android Themes] xdagee:
Before, am very sure you have backed up first :good:. The same one is okay but it would be better if you can get the latest zip (i.e if nothing else is broken from upstream) always check for change log before downloading. flash rom.zip followed by gapps and then you can install the bootanimation apks. let me know if it works or not. sorry for the delay though :) for all rom related issues visit your device thread. :)
[Android Themes] DummeGans:
My apologies meant to reply sooner but duty calls. Boot animation is good to go. I guess I must have done something wrong with capps. I will hunt this forum for more info on capps.
[Android Themes] RustySpackleford:
I tried the New Google Now Animations Dark on my OPO running stable Sultan 5.1.1 and I get a white flash right before and after the animation.

I've not seen this on any other one I've tried.

Otherwise I love all of this.
[Android Themes] Nh3xus:
The Watch Dog animation works flawlessly on my SGS2 i9100 with CM13.

Looks awesome. :)

Thankyou!!!!!;););)
[Android Themes] luki7151:
OMG! You can't imagine how thankful i am for your tutorial :victory: I can finally build .apk's for my favourite bootanimations :D which were always replaced after OTA's. I was searching for a tut like this for a long time.

I could post some here, but i don't really know if they are going to work with all devices :confused: because i'm creating them especially for 1080p resolution (for my GS5). If you could explain me what should i change/add in template to get it to work properly for all without any bootloops etc., i would be honored to participate in your Bootanimation Collection thread :o
[Android Themes] xdagee:
Great, am glad to see my guidelines making impact. Big thanks goes to the entire CyanogenMod team especially to the person who brought the idea of the theme engine. :good:

Now if read the requirements, all what it needs is a ROM with support for CyanogenMod's theme engine. So you don't need any special files or any magic code to make it work, just follow and it would work for all. Another good news is that you don't have to worry about Screen DPIs as the theme engine will take care of that. Expect for some special cases where you might end up in bootloop. But the most important thing is backup first before you try anything new.

Unless otherwise stated, so your boot animations are welcome. :laugh:
[Android Themes] luki7151:
So, this is my first bootanimation created in Android Studio :) Android N Beta Preview bootanimation. Tested, and works well. Enjoy ;)

I will try to add something which is not present in the thread, at least once a week :)

Here you go mate :)

Btw, it's really nice bootanimation, good find :good: If i were running CM13, i would definitely use it. Unfortunately, i'm running RR right now, so it doesn't fit too well :silly:
[Android Themes] jugoslavpetrovic:
It looks like lollipop bootanimation.
[Android Themes] luki7151:
Ohhhh... I noticed that now :D That's strange that Google rolls back old bootanimation to newest android release. I hope they will create something new.
[Android Themes] jugoslavpetrovic:
Dead, its weird. There will be new N bootani for sure.
[Android Themes] DSDONE:
Are there any other zip files for any other boot animation other than the marshmallow one? For some reason the apk files are not working for my CMTE...
[Android Themes] xdagee:
No I didn't provide it because you can easily get them besides the demand wasn't too high ;). Also what issue are you facing can you detail me more?

Need Help with installing a bootanimation.zip

Hello Guys....

I'm not yet familiar with CM13 and i cant flash my preferred Bootanimation :(

Would you please be so kind and compile an App for me to install my bootanimation?

[T-Mobile LG G3] briankh:
Hey I know that I can perform the upgrade using the LG mobile tool. I just had a question about that. I know to hit upgrade recovery and it will update the phone, but the only way my phone connects to the mobile tool is to set the phone to MTP mode. Is MTP mode the correct usb setting to use to get the update to 5.0? Thanks for any help.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:

Im from Europe i would like to know if LTE/4g will work properly with this rom?

Thanks
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] a1b2c3901:
It's just a ROM converted from offical ftf with pre-root and recovery, so I guess there should be no problem on LET.:)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] bjjbaojj:
thank u for the working，but i still waiting for the one step root method
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] dnkH:
Okey, let's try.

Tried to update from CM12 with the procedure. /system wasn't updated at all by the installer. :(
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] ragdoll96:
If I may ask, which SuperSU and recovery ZIPs did you use for creating the PRF? I already downloaded an unrooted one and on a slow connection like mine I'd rather not redownload another one. I'm willing to go through the process myself.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] akusokuzan:
not sure i understand - why do i have to flash with flashtool after....? and does this work on locked BL?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] vovadevova:
Why flash FTF (,on right side uncheck DATA if you don't want to format internal storage and check SYSTEM & BASEBAND in exclude column). What happen if flash zip and don't flash FTF?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Nayibmc:
where's the ftf?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
Try flash over stock 4.4.4
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
SuperSU v2.46 and XZdualrecovery 2.8.9
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
Cus I didn't add kernel etc in the zip,it only includes system

So we need to flash them by flashtool.and yes I'm on locked bootloader
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
Same reason in post #15
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
In the second line of the thread

So, do I have to download the .ftf from "this FTF"? Would it work any other .ftf or does it have to be that one?

You must use the kernel and other stuff in right version of FTF
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Joe_Mama:

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] nataS555:
Got bootloop, don´t know what i did wrong. In recovery installation went really fast, don´t know what it did but couldn´t be big file that got installed.

Edit. Tried couple of times and always got stuck on Sony logo and reboot. Flashed without root and will wait for one-click root. Thank you anyway, i guess i f*cked up :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] wyt18:
how did you get Xposed to work ... did you have to deodex first? was looking at this thread below:

http://xdaforums.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/xposed-lollipop-t3081871
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
take shots and focus become more quick than before.but i think the quality is same as 4.4
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
well,i'm not really sure what region is:p, but yep it contains Chinese keyboard(i'm Taiwanese so i really need it)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
did you wipe data in recovery(not in flashtool)?

and be sure the kernel is on right version
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
just follow the thread i gave.flash the zip first then install the apk.

and no i did'nt deodex my ROM
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] aigaming:
1. Camera start up and focus alot faster (also opening taken pictures faster) (60fps added,choppier littlebit)

2. Camera auto mode bad as previous versions(huge iso on auto)

3. Phone alot smooother then any custom kk rom

4. Dialer alot better and now usefull

5. Notifications much better

6. Ui much pretier

7.Flash littlebit brighter then kk(have looked in to custom flash file)

8.Ultra stamind mode added

That would be for now my observations ;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
ftf is in the second line of the thread
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] nataS555:
Yes, wiped everything. And used Flashtool with the second row tft as described. Anyway, i no longer have root or recovery so gonna wait till easier root comes along. Quite happy actually with the rom

(i know, it takes day or two and gonna flash Kitkat back and root again :D )
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] przem16325:
installing update, few seconds, installation done, and stock after reboot, awesome xD
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] wyt18:
I tried installing xposed and ended up with the bootloop like the thread I forwarded said ... I'm curious how you managed to get xposed to work? It actually "worked" the first time for me, but gets into a bootloop upon reboot. have you tried rebooting your phone?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] rob rich:
I have no problems with this rom and xposed. I think it's one of the modules you have installed. I have no module installed till now and rebooted several times. No bootloop. So it's not the xposed framework which causes the bootloop. I think when you press volume up or down many times when booting you can disable xposed. But wait a bit till the bootanimation starts
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Antho02:
so if i dont want wipe my data in step 3 (twrp) i only use wipe dalvick cache and wipe cache, right?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] wyt18:
thanks for the info. I didn't have any modules installed either, but here's what I did:

1. flashed framework, reboot (first reboot rebuilds ART cache so took longer than usual)

2. installed xposed apk (module manager, not any specific module), reboot

3. stuck in bootloop

4. boot to recovery, clear cache/ART, gets me back to #1. still no modules installed
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] ccsvchost:
Anyone know if this works with the 120 fps camera mod? This is probably what keeps me on Kk for a while...
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
you must wipe data in recovery,or you'll get a lot of problems since this is a big update
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Nayibmc:

Bootloader locked

Can I flash that zip file with locked bootloader? I don't have that bootloader unlocking permission and cannot find a single method where I can root or unlock my phone without that permission. Only this one is showing some hope. Still I guess as this have a kernel built in, maybe I cannot flash the zip.

I already have Lollypop 5.0.2, the customized_IN version from Xperifirm. I just want to have root or at least unlocked bootloader.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
if you don't want to unlock bootloader,downgrade to 4.4.4,root your phone and install recovery.

then follow this guide you'll get root in 5.0.2 and no need to unlock bootloader

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] slsamg7112:
you can backup your data and apps by Titanium Backup.i'm not sure if it will backup obb data or not(but if you just wipe data in "recovery" then you won't lose internal storage files)

it doesn't matter which ftf you use,just need the kernel and some stuff except system.remember to use ftf for D5503.
