[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] TechBurner:
Hello Guys , I was very excited by android 8.0 and i also love oreos!

So long story short , I made this bootanimation for my device that looks like Android Oreo boot animation.

I tested this on my Moto G4 plus and my friend tested it on Nexus 5 and it worked great for him.

I dont have any other device to try so i want you guys to give it a go and let me know how it works!

So the problem is that i am not very good at making bootanimation , i know how to design but with the bootanimations i am new. So i thought you guys could help me with the animation and how to make it run smoothly on all devices.

I dont know much about the desc file also i just tried to make one using the default android bootanim and it worked.

These are the things that i need help with

1. Making the size of the zip small

2. Making such that part2 runs full even if the device is fully booted , i did that for the 1080p one and it worked but not for the 720p one.

3. Making the bootanimation for 720p devices , i have resized it and it plays also but the point 2. is not working. i.e. the part2 sometimes plays fully sometimes doesnt.

4. Porting it for 1440p devices, I will give the resources (the png files and the zip) and if someone can port it , it would be awesome! :)

5. Make the animations run at 30 fps .Right now i make the animations at 20fps and run them at 60 to make them look smooth.

It would be really helpful if you guys can help me with the process and i will credit you in the video and at the end of this thread also :)

Cheers

Let me know what you guys think of the Bootanimation any Suggestions are welcome.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] TechBurner:
I tried scaling the animation, i used 720p resources and changed the resolution in the desc file to 1080p but it didnt show, i will try again though!

Should i transfer frames from part2 to part1 because there is no loop in the animation. I just want the animation to play at once and if the device is still not booted the last frame to hold , and i want all the parts to be displayed and the phone should not start untill the animation is finished.

I tried to understand it but i am not sure if i put "c" then the animation will play fully then switch to the next event or its something else?

Thank you soo much for the reply , I have been looking for help on this and couldnt find it anywhere!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
You don't have to touch the desc.txt if you're scaling. As long as the images retain the 9:16 ratio (1080x1920, 720x1280, 540x960, etc.), the dect.txt file will scale it to 1080x1920 if you direct it to (which you are already doing).

First, with the detail and animation you have, I highly recommend a loop. What I laid-out should work fine. Loops are nice because they show activity. What you're proposing is confusing to users; the animation at 60 FPS would complete in 4 seconds (with about 250 frames, as I'm suggesting), then you'd have a static "G" logo for 12+ seconds. I'd be in a panic thinking my phone had frozen. Depending on what's going on with the phone, that 16 seconds could stretch to a minute or more. Unsettling for me without some sort of activity.

If you want each frame to play once, and hold the last frame, you're doing things entirely wrong. Your desc.txt should be:

1080 1920 60
p 1 0 part0
p 1 0 part1
p 0 0 part2

With:

part0 - frames 008-125

part1 - frames 126-256

part2 - frame 257 only

Please have a loop and don't make it a static run-through. I'd have those Oreos in "part1" dancing, spinning, and flipping, showing that the phone is alive.

---------- Post added at 11:57 ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 ----------

What I'd also do is go back and look again at how the Marshmallow and Lollipop factory animations work. I have examples in my thread. Hopefully some of the things I've chatted about have made things clearer.

part1 is a potential loop.

frames 146 to 169 are also a potential loop area. Actually, you could fade that in and out to a solid blue background as part of the loop and it would look wicked.

Could not find 'Meta-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file. Error installing zip file '/sdcard/Download/bootanimation.zip, I tried doing the installation in the youtube video but didnt work, just old logo. Tried flashing it, didnt work either....
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Has_anDroid:
Install method please
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Aurey24:
Woah guys no, u don't flash the zip, use a root file explorer or whatever to install the animation. U simply

download the bootanimation.zip copy it

goto /system/media

Make sure the system is mounted as rw

find the original animation and rename it to boot animation.zip.bak

Paste the downloaded bootanimation.zip there

Change the permissions to 644 rw-r-r

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
I've tweaked the animation a bit. It's staged, with a definite loop; the Google logo will now appear right before the lock screen.

Let me know what you think:

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Aurey24:
I like this good job! We came a long way lol? will u be making a 60fps one too?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
It's many frames, and bordering on "sluggish" as-is. Bumping it up to 60FPS (and doubling the number of frames) might cause things to lock-up.

Dealing with full 9:16 frames is tricky, especially with with a large quantity. I think for what's being done in my setup, 30FPS is "max".

Can you tell the difference between 30FPS and 60FPS?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Aurey24:
Yeah I was thinking the same thing, it's harder but takes time. Also yeah u can tell the difference, at least with this animation

Hey [MENTION=4733329]TechBurner[/MENTION], Can you make this boot animation for 480p device. My phone's resolution is 480X854....
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Goticux:
It works perfectly in Huawei P8 lite :P
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] fieldchef:
Ya know, this is awesome. Just a question, is there a way to slow it down, and avoid so many loops? I feel like the more loops there are, it kinda loses a lil bit. Otherwise this is sweet.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Sobhan Bhuyan:
One prob
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] parag60288:
It is not a flashable zip.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Edw590:
Hi! Do you know what the -1's mean there?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
It designates the position of a screen clock, if there is one; 1 pixel from the right. a positive value would indicate the value of the pixels from the left.

I've left it in animations "just because". If it were omitted, most people won't see a difference (unless running a clock on their boot animation, but who does that?).
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Edw590:
Thank you for the reply! But now I'm curious haha, how can I enable such clock? Or all I have to do is put a pixel value that shows it?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
Good question, and I have another answer.

This link:

bootanimation format

Specifies that the clock parameters are for WATCHES. I'm guessing that non-watch devices aren't capable.

Now that makes no sense, as the official android animations that were NEVER intended to run on watches still include the "-1" flags.

Maybe it was a planned feature for phones that never came to fruition.

EDIT: I'm seeing reference to a "clock_font.png" file that would contain clock fonts/glyphs. I've never seen or played with such a file. My guess is that you'd have to play with an existing png file.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Edw590:
Wow, thank you!!! A complete and official tutorial on this!!! I'll be playing with this hahaha. I'll have the clock show up and the percentage too!! Really cool to be able to have dynamic stuff on this!!!

Official roms are buggy too if you ever tried nightlies or snapshots. And we will see, maybe official will come until cm statet it comes not
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] FlaminisRex:
They didn't say all G family, they post this list:

They are 1st 2nd and 3rd Gen.

If it's not in the list, it will be added, thats possible.

[MENTION=6392154]mayank.bhola1[/MENTION]:

No need to scared and say it will never come. If you didn't have a proof, don't open such scaring threads "no official cyanogen 14.1" that's really annoying to others, because some people trust it and won't buy the device maybe(just an opinion) ;)
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] trsix:
I avoid anything cm based. Always worse on battery life.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
That's not true that all cm based has "always" worse battery life. On my galaxy's I got more battery compared to Samsung roms(official or mod) and also on my other devices cm gives me more battery life then stock, even to aosp! Maybe you encountered bad experiences, but it totally depends on the device tree, drivers, modem, source, etc etc... And the knowledge of the dev :angel:
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] SoNic67:
My experience with CM was that a lot of the features added where useless to me and they just added battery drain and new bugs. And when a bug was fixed in a nightly, there was a good chance that another two bugs would pop up.

Not cool if you really need to use your phone as a phone. Maybe OK if you don't have a job or you stay at home all the time.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] mayank.bhola1:
So you concluding that we must stick to stock ROMs ??
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] SoNic67:
Depends of what you do for living... and if need a reliable phone line for that.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
I knew a device which stock cos rom is the hell on earth(random reboots, bugs, freezes) compared to cm and nearly all people saying wow after flashing cm instead of staying on stock. CM is widely available for devices and always a chance to get more out of your device when the manufacturer gives up the development after launching the device or won't fix bugs in acceptable time.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] SoNic67:
Not the case here. Moto firmware is stable and not bloated.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] mayank.bhola1:
CM is best after OEM leaves device support. I had Asus Zenfone 5 earlier but no official CM so developers made unofficial one but Asus had serious issues with bootloader unlock as no developer was able to resolve screen freeze issues. So running custom ROMs on that device was hell bad.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] rajit:
If you think making cm and make it official is easy then do it urself, we really want to see. Things are not same as 1st,2nd &3rd. The chipset are way different than the previous gen. So stop posting useless things. Dont open thread for you own satisfaction.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Frances91:
Just my $0.02 : The premise behind getting a custom ROM is that it's for those who have an above average idea about OS, customizations, working on a system level and such.

The whole argument about stability, and what one does for their living is a bit too far fetched in context of using a device that is dependable. Stock ROMs are made by OEMs keeping a novice end-user in view, who may or may not have sufficient time, knowledge or inclination of going beyond what the device came shipped with.

Custom ROMs and development is undertaken almost completely as a voluntary exercise by the devs, mostly on cost of their own resources and go far as to offer their work off forum threads which they'd personally support. Those flashing and modding devices are ones testing the work undertaken by devs, and even after a ROM gets official status, work on development continues with feedback from users and updating security, porting features from other devices, expanding customization et al.

Battery use, smoothness of UI, connectivity, stability, obviously are essential to one's experience of using their phone, but are highly dependent on how well one's put to use the abilities of their custom ROM, apart from what applications or settings one's gotten on, and that would come about only with experimenting, learning and keeping oneself updated with their device's software.

Stock ROMs, barring the few odd ones which run stock Android are almost always crammed with bloatware, uncustomizable UI/features and locked in to a mesh of regulatory compliances, OEM/vendor/third party interests and above all marketing the device as a product - which means you're good to go for just about as long as the OEM cares, and that isn't usually long enough given they'd obviously be focused on selling newer products.

So, it's just that mileage may vary but if you're willing to stick around to learn and experiment, customizing is the only way to truly own your phone.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] king200:
I think the G4 is close to AOSP. Using Xposed you can get many fancy features found in custom roms. GravityBox gives you much of what CM offers.

Security features make it much more difficult to customize a phone. Pay by phone, i.e. "Wallet" will become important.

Custom roms are used more now for keeping old phones current. Not that much happening with new phones. Look at CyanogenMod https://download.cyanogenmod.org/ to view this.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Frances91:
If you're considering using Xposed for the 'fancy features' and use wallet, and yet vouch for stock Roms I'm not sure what you're on to. You'd need for more mods running on a stock ROM which would anyways take months or even years to get updated to run latest Android versions. Some times you'd just stick around with frequent updates which are still two SDK versions behind the current official release, basically cycling through bloat, partner apps and constant rooting, modding to just keep your phone worth it's use.

As for new phones, it takes a fair amount of time, effort and understanding to access available sources and build a device tree from which custom ROMs are built.

Besides, not many users, unless they've specifically bought the new device to work on development, adopt customization till about several months after their purchase. As for CyanogenMod site they list the official ROMs, which are painstakingly built after months of testing. What you see on there are mostly devices which are either usually a year old or are stock Android - both being fitting scenarios for system level modifications to drive both performance and customization. You'd be hard pressed to find Android OEMs updating devices or even offering security patches for long.

Also, do remember MIUI, Oxygen and several other OEM ROMs that run across some of the most successful phones evolved from the custom ROMs community development.

And yeah, there's the custom kernels as well which almost always need a custom ROM.

Unless you've hit upon a groundbreaking counter claim to all the benefit of custom ROMs you would be among a tiny minority of informed users who ascribe to that idea. I would really like to benefit from what you can share about it, I am sure I can hit up the devs in my subscribed threads and help them make better decision with their time and efforts.

Is there any way to change or just disable Samsung logo?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] vigilante_xix:
I finally found a power utility to restart the device via on screen selection that looks good too. However, one other function I need it to do is shut down without having to press the side button for 5 seconds and then confirm with on screen touch.

I've read in other theads that ShutXP is meant to fully switch off the device but on my v1615 it simply switches the display off (locks the screen etc, just as if the power button was depressed momentarily).

Is there a bug with the v1615 (Vodafone branded TyTn II/Kaiser) and this tool? Does anyone else have a Kaiser and the ShutXP tool and experience this issue? Perhaps I have something else installed which is causing it not to shutdown properly??

I've noticed a DWORD registry entry for ShutXP in HKLM\Software\PPCSpft\psShutXP\VideoPowerOff which has a default value of 0. Setting this to 1 doesn't seem to make a difference to any of the features.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] vigilante_xix:
OK, I'll ask it in a slightly different way as I've done a little more searching around and cannot find any tools to do this...

How do you switch off the TyTn II without pressing the side power button?

i.e. have a shortcut in the HTC Launcher which powers down the device similar to psShutXP but not just to sleep??

I'm talking about completely switching the device off - not just putting it to sleep. Pressing the power button for more than 4 seconds allows you to switch the device off, completely.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] philje123:
PS shutxp

Have you heard of PSShutXP??

Have used it before... does what you desrcibe...

http://ppcsoft.narod.ru/english/
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] johanromijn:
Did you read, what he posted? Does NOT what he describes.

PsShutXP is not able to do that. I think it isn't even possible with any software. (AFAIK)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] vigilante_xix:
Thanks johanromijn, couldn't think of any other way of making it any more clearer... :p

I've read somewhere about a command prompt interface on the ppc which can emulate many functions. Do you know about this? I'm sure it could do many power functions but I can't for the life of me find the same one I read about.

Pressing the button simply sends a software command so perhaps it can be captured and saved to a shortcut on the touch screen. I could understand the difficulty if it were a hardware switch! Unfortunatly, the button capture software I've used doesn't register the button press and the device just warns me about loosing any unsaved data before powering off - screen capture attached.

I just don't want to waste battery unnecessarily over night or elsewhere when the device isn't required to be on.

Anyone got any suggestions??

Same problem On HTC P3470

Hi All,

i have same problem with my HTC P3470 :o

i tried about 4 or 5 other applications that same result appears. some of them needed .net framework. but the peroblem still remain after installing .net farmework. i think it's become a dream to shutdown our wm6 via screen tap :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
Given that you'd normally need to press the power button to get it out of powersaving mode before doing any screen tapping anyway, other than the fact shutting the device down takes 5 seconds more, I don't see any advantage to having a fully screen tap method of powering off. In fact, to the contrary, it may result in unwanted accidental shutdowns eg when putting the device in pockets etc when the screen may accidentally be touched/tapped in the wrong place if not put into powersaving mode first.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stylez:
Install 888PowerOff it will put a shortcut that you can place where you want in the start menu etc, still asks for verification but still faster than power button :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
Maybe you should just hire someone to do the work for you. Powering the phone off by holding a button is very hard work.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Janis:
Lots of reasons

I'ts not as if you can't set the attribute of the shortcut to hidden and call it, to schedule it, or in my case, I'd like to use PhoneAlarm to trigger it when to power gets down to 10%, still allowing me to make outbound calls, that is if I'm not obsessively watching my battery while people I don't really need to talk to are calling me.

Not to mention with WinMo, I'm always telling people 'just hang on.' I can't even power down as fast as they can.

If I assign it to a long-press on another hardware key I can just reach in my pocket and press; I don't have to dig the thing out, hold the button for what on my unit comes out to 7 sec, tap, and put the thing back. Discretion is always nice.

I'd really prefer to skip the whole PowerOffWarning.exe/ShutXP bit, and just power off. My phone is not my heart, it can stop for a few minues once in a while.
