Windows Phone 7 Series

This looks pixelated but the dithering isn't visible on your screen! It prevents gradient banding.

Leo Animations Downloaded more than 7500 times! Awesome!

The HTCAnimation itself --------------------------The HTCAnimation which fades into the welcomehead ------------------Full Black version.------------------------------Black HTCAnimation only

---------- -------- --------

Custom Animations

---------- --------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Request, VGA Only

Warning: This animation is pretty big! WVGA is ~400 KB, I can make it smaller but quality reduces if I do that.

As you can see I like clean design!

And note that the quality and speed of these previews is pretty bad.

Downloads

To download only the Leo HTCAnimation, so without welcomehead, select 'File' or 'Cab'. To download the full pack, select 'Full'.

For the black versions, select 'File Black', 'Cab Black' or 'Full Black'.

For the Custom animation, choose 'Custom White' or 'Custom Black'

The 7series downloads are only available for VGA and WVGA

Love this thanks, any chance of doing the welcomehead? i know you stated you were leaving it out because many use the 6.5 one but i would love a matching welcome head
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Thanks, well you're right it's way better having a nice matching welcomehead than the ugly orange one.

I'll make one today.
[Windows Mobile Themes] lovinher:
Maybe u can also update the CAB file to install both the welcomehead and the animation as well as the relevant registry? :D Thanks a bunch. And i love it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Yes I'll make a full Cab so it's easy to install.

Thanks for the tip :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] lovinher:
Whoots. Thanks! :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] wez89:
Thanks alot for this, look forward to the release and thanks for your contribution, something i will be keeping on my topaz for a long time (:
[Windows Mobile Themes] pepot:
Thanks.....
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
:) Okay it's done now.

It did take some time but the result isn't bad, I think.

See the first post!
[Windows Mobile Themes] incubus26jc:
qvga full link dont work
[Windows Mobile Themes] wez89:
isnt bad?

This has to be the best startup animation i have seen, wow im impressed. i must say thanks alot for the hard work!!!

edit~ please check all the links for full, links are broken.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Thank you for the compliment:)

I have fixed the full links, they should work now.
[Windows Mobile Themes] wez89:
Yeah they work now thanks alot (:
[Windows Mobile Themes] incubus26jc:
can i have the welcomehead file? great work!!! also, the audio didnt change and when i tried to manually change to it with advanced configuration, there wasnt a xxx.wav in windows
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Well XXX.wav means that you have to use your own wav. I'm sorry it wasn't very clear.

Also when you tried the full cab, the registry keys are already installed so the wav will remain the same.

I attached the welcomehead file to this post.

I assume you need the QVGA one, let me know if you need any other.
[Windows Mobile Themes] incubus26jc:
my bad. sorry for misunderstanding. yes qvga is what i needed. thanks alot. great work
[Windows Mobile Themes] tito12:
Hi ElCondor

First thanks for your contribution :)

After install full QVGA I get the animation and the orange windows welcomehead, after looking in windows dir I see 2 files: welcomehead.96 (original) and welcomehead.192 (yours). Could you pls update the cab?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] incubus26jc:
just use advanced configuration tool to change it to the one you want
[Windows Mobile Themes] tito12:
Hi incubus26jc

Of course I can, I just stated that full install should do this automatically with a welcomehead matching the boot animation and not "the one I want" ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] incubus26jc:
it does match it on different operating systems i think like wm6.1. 6.5 changes the filename so he should have two differnt cabs for the different os if im not mistaken
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dom1n8tr1x:
Great work my friend, will definately be adding one of them into my custom ROM.
[Windows Mobile Themes] nerdo:
Would love to see more>>>

@ ElCondor

Clearly you are a man of talent :)

Love your last addition, just brilliantly brilliant :D

Would definitly like to see more of your work(s)

Keep it up and keep'em coming mate!
[Windows Mobile Themes] bankai03:
Magnificent work :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Thank you guys!:D

I will make a lot more animations, as far as my inspiration goes.
[Windows Mobile Themes] the-wrangler:
hey mate, great job..these are gorgeous and sure put a nice professional look that is really nice on the eyes on my touch pro..muchly appreciate you sharing!
[Windows Mobile Themes] karan999:
Hi, im using the startup sound customized by lebmb along with the custom animated white image.i have an HTC GENE(qvga 240*320 diisplay).

the startup sound crashes when the custom animated.gif image is used.any help ?
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
That's really weird. Maybe the sound crashes because the animation asks too much memory...

Try using a different animation to see if it still crashes.

It might also be the length of it or it's corrupted.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Is it my internet connection or are all the animations suddenly in such a bad quality?

I uploaded them at Tinypic but they all seem to be pixelated.
[Windows Mobile Themes] 4D3:
Top 4 look sweet, the 2 "Custom" ones look realy bad!!

MG
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Here the top 4 are more pixelated than the other two... strange.
[Windows Mobile Themes] semsem1969:
wow good job

love the custom black .installed it on my Raphael .work really nice

great job keep up the good work.peace
[Windows Mobile Themes] wtmaxx25:
Could not get HTC Sound to play with animation, do i have to insert it, can it be added to cab?
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Thank you my friend.:)

Hi,

Did the sound play before you installed the animation?

There's no sound included in the animation, they work independent from each other.

The only sound I have is the one attached to the first post.
[Windows Mobile Themes] wtmaxx25:
Well here is what i did i installed the animation and then saved the sound which was a WM file, should i put it in the sounds folder or maybe i need some instruction, somewhat a noob but can figure out most. thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] wtmaxx25:
Maybe can it be incorporated? into the splash....
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
No problem we are all here to learn from each other.

You just need to copy it to your windows folder, if it asks to replace the existing file you should tap yes.
[Windows Mobile Themes] rakeshtiw:
The custom one is great! Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] wtmaxx25:
Di need to copy it to a startup folder or anything? sounds or just in the windows folder?
[Windows Mobile Themes] wtmaxx25:
I have tried to find something that when i restart or boot up it has a windows themed or HTC themed sound with the splash animation, my brain is fried at the moment. thanks for your help.
[Windows Mobile Themes] andrew-in-woking:
Custom White

Hi [Elcondor]

I haven't actually used the custom white on my phone but when I load the animated.gif on my computer I can see a rectangular border around the grey and green background graphics. This border can be easily removed.

Cheers

andrew-in-woking
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Just unzip the file and copy the file inside it to your windows folder.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your tip.

I'll fix it. I am also busy with a new animation.

EC
[Windows Mobile Themes] andrew-in-woking:
Done it myself

Hi [ElCondor]

I've done it, at least for WVGA. I'm busy myself so don't have time to do the other three. I think as you have the source files it may be easier for you.

I will be producing HTC Rhodium specific animations.

Cheers

andrew-in-woking
[Windows Mobile Themes] wtmaxx25:
i copied it to the windows folder but for the life of me i get no start up sounds, thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
@anrew-in-woking

Okay yes it's pretty easy for me to do it. Feel free to make those packages again.

@wtmaxx

Today I'll give you a registry edit by which it should work.

Cheers,

EC
[Windows Mobile Themes] andrew-in-woking:
I have used part of the animation in a theme

Hi [ElCondor]

I have used part of the custom black WVGA animation in my World Map theme here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5292722

You are credited.

Cheers

andrew-in-woking
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Hi Andrew,

That theme looks great! Thank you for giving credit:)

Cheers,

EC
[Windows Mobile Themes] :
Thanks for these animations! It seems your CABs still haven't been able to redirect my phone to your welcomeheads via the registry, but that's not a problem.

I was wondering as far as dithering goes, whether you could improve the quality of the splash screen of the custom animation [black], notably the Windows orb in the background.

Cheers, and looking forward to more amazing work!
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Yes I do not understand why the registry edits not work.

I will update those animations soon, I'll try some dithering methods to create a better gradient.

Also as you can see the flag of the windows logo is not prefect, I just copied it from somewhere on the internet, thinking it would be nice and clean but there are some gaps at the edge of it.

Cheers,

EC
[Windows Mobile Themes] 4D3:
Are you watching these with a microscope?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
Man, are you somehow depressed or what :p? There's no need for such comments...

EC, what animation software are you using? I tried several free- and shareware but they all have some quirks or other :(.
[Windows Mobile Themes] 4D3:
I have a real nice one!! but i can post it here if you understand me!!!

MG
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
I don't know what you guys are talking about...

About the program I use, it's Photoshop. It works great, every animation has got it's own layers.

However there is a snag in it... if you modify a layer it'll modify it for all frames.

So that makes it a lot harder.
[Windows Mobile Themes] andrew-in-woking:
GIMP

Hi all

The GIMP is also a good option for editing animations through a layer system. In terms of editing all layers indavertantly, you can avoid that in GIMP by making various layers invisible temporarily.

Cheers

andrew-in-woking
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Hi andrew-in-woking,

Thanks, but I'll still stick to Photoshop. Just because I know how it works and it still works great.

EC
[Windows Mobile Themes] :
That actually isn't too far from the truth.

Since doing some basic graphic design 2 years ago, I've always been looking for the fine detail in pixels. Which is a really bad attribute for a WinMo user.

My eyes would have burnt out from the fugliness if there was no xda-devs.
[Windows Mobile Themes] celoni:
Great EC...thanks very much for the Request VGA...you are great!!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
At your service!:p

Yeah Photshop is just excellent. I have never tried another program but it fits my needs. I already have the CS4 version so I do not need it, thanks!:)

[Windows Mobile Themes] st3ph3nt3:
Hi.. I have problem. I installed the full white version but no htc animation only the windows phone logo is appearing. How do I fix this?
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Hi,

It's possible that your ROM has the animation disabled.

There's a registry tweak for that, however I don't know it's name... I'll look into it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] 4D3:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation

there ya go!!

MG
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Yeah I know that one but there must be something like 'DisableHTCAnimation' Dword=1

Something like that. I don't know.
[Windows Mobile Themes] 4D3:
Try this then, in the zip there is 2 keys, they assign to this regkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Startup\1

1 key for animation ON, 1 key for animation OFF

please let me know if these do the trick for you

MG
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
That's exactly what I was looking for, thanks MG!

I'll add it to the CABs in future but I'm also busy with other themes and school of course.
[Windows Mobile Themes] st3ph3nt3:
THANKS!! Its working!
[Windows Mobile Themes] GuitaristSV:
Thanks for these splashscreens, really cool :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] srgudhka:
i installed the custom black version for qvga on my elfin. but it only showed the animated splash screen and the latter it showed the original orange wm 6.5 boot screen image. i figured out that in your cabs pls rename welcomehead.192.png to welcomehead.96.png for qvga resoultion
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I'll change the names in the following versions,

I don't know why the CAB doesn't change the registry.

For now renaming the file is the only way to fix it.

Cheers,

EC
[Windows Mobile Themes] Marneus Calgar:
Hello !

Can you post the source files (Animated, Welcomhead192 and Welcomhead) of your WVGA White Custom so I can include theme in my Rhodium ROM I'm trying to cook ?

Thanks ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Marneus Calgar:
Sorry for the double post. I didn't saw that firts was accepted
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Sorry for my late reply.

Can't you just extract the cab with Wince Cab manager?

If you can cook ROMs you can do that too!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Marneus Calgar:
I haven't Wince Cab manager but I will find it. Thanks ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] norskolm:
Thanks, now I have a very nice startup on my phone. Loved it.

I installed the VGA Full on my Raphael, and it worked fine. But after install the backlight was dimmed all the way down, and now in settings I can only adjust the backlight on external power. The bar on battery power is completly gone.

The "Automatically adjust backlight" still work tho, but its to low for me.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
That's pretty weird, I've never heard of that problem.

I'm afraid I can not solve your problem.
[Windows Mobile Themes] norskolm:
Yes, it's pretty wierd.

But right before I found this CAB, I flashed a startup animation and splash screen that kiay had made for Raphael.

Could there be any conflict there?

I guess I have to reflash my ROM and then install your cab?

Either way it's worth it.

The startup is really nice. And thanks again for the work you've done. :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] ghtfuo:
:)

:?nice :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Hmm yeah it could result in some problems...

If you installed this cab over the perivous one, without uninstalling it, may cause some problems.

What's up?
[Windows Mobile Themes] pongster:
excellent stuff!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Nokser:
Good Work! My Friend

Maybe create Landskape this Animation :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Themes] 4D3:
why? have you ever managed to boot your hd2 in landscape? no!! because you cant.

so why have a landscape animation that will never play?

(unless there is a way to boot in landscape and i dont know, in which case i retract this comment, and would like to know how to do this!)

[Windows Mobile Themes] omahajs:
Very nice animations. They work perfectly on my tp. Thanks.

Does anyone know how I might replace the default animation with one of these in my visual kitchen - I'd like to cook this in instead next time.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
It's in the HTCAnimation EXT folder, just search for it in your kitchen and you should find 'animated'.
[Windows Mobile Themes] PayAndDie:
Hi,

which one do I need to download if I want to install the 7series start up animation for wqvga (Omnia i900) :confused:
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Unfortunately, it is not available for quarter resolutions. So WQVGA or QVGA are not supported.
[Windows Mobile Themes] katoki:
Very good, thanks your share ~:)
[Windows Mobile Themes] PayAndDie:
oh hmm oki..but are you going to release it in that resolution wehen you done with your 7even theme? beacause it would be very great comparision with your theme.

[Windows Mobile Themes] hixer:
I bring the Full cab into my storage card , and then I was installed , but after that had a problem is ' not for my version Windows . I using the Kaiser QVGA , i also download that theme for QVGA , who know help me , plz . What i need to do right now for it working ??:(
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Well that theme is also VGA and WVGA only. I'll think about it.

Your phone is QVGA so you will not be able to install the 7series startup animations. For the other animations, just click on one of the QVGA downloads. I'm not sure if your phone will display it because it's pretty old though.

Hmm that's weird. I made the cab compatible for every version...

What you can do is unpack the cab, and copy all files to the windows folder with total commander or resco explorer.

See the very first animation, plain white and simple? Thts wht I want...so which file is it???

I want the file to be 480x800?? Like the very first HTC, QB animation, very simple and sober...

[Windows Mobile Themes] oakie:
just installed the custom black to my HD2. my only wish is that the gif was dithered so the color banding werent visible. i added noise to the "welcomehead.192.png" image and fixed it, unfortunately the last frame of the gif stays onscreen for a relatively long time.

other than the banding issue, these startups look gorgeous. and if it bugs me too much, i'll just change it to one of the other startup images.

The GTX Metro startup animation looks really cool. But I´ve got one problem. I have not got the HTC device. I have got Samsung Omnia i900 (WQVGA resolution). I want to use the WQVGA Metro animation from the first post. Can you make the WQVGA Startup Metro animation without the HTC logo?

Although the GTX theme got a lot more attention there. Brandon says he loves GTX.
