Yeah, that's how I'm doing it. The original one I have works fine, but when I push my edited version I just get the black screen.

What were you saying earlier about changing index to rgb and vice versa? I'm just using Paint.net at work here and I can't find anywhere to change those image settings. I wonder if that has something to do with it.
[Android Themes] {davros}:
ooh wait quick edit.....

yes original one not my edit version

oops my bad

oh and i used,

gimp to change to rgb

photoshop to edit image

gimp to change back

Is there a version for the HTC Vision (running CM6)?

Awesome job in any case, very cool!
[Android Themes] Youngunn2008:
i run this animation on n1 with cm6.1.1 but it needs updated... maybe ill try and figure this out too.
[Android Themes] Bronz_Most:
Is there any way to make it accessible to everyone who wishes to use it on their phone, so every time a new phone/ROM/whatever comes out people aren't asking for a version customized to their needs? A little "self-help" kinda thing?
[Android Themes] :
Can anyone tell me the font used to create this.
[Android Themes] sidicious:
I am using the nexus froyo 2.2 bios boot animation, and also using this mp3 file in place of the sprint SPC_animation_final.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/?aa3vj2ai128aj24

Its a computer startup/bios beep sound that runs about the length of time the screen stays up on my evo 4g.

Can I request one for Mytouch 3G Slide(Espresso) with 864MHz?
[Android Themes] DARKKRAKEN:
The Nexus version works fine on my SGS i just extracted the bootanimation.zip from nexus-bios-boot.zip and put it in system/media. You need a ROM that supports custom boot animations or modify one to support with dsixda's Android Kitchen.
[Android Themes] bunu:
I would like it if you gave us the font link! Also font size used in the boot. (for like cpu speed, rom., etc.

I could make one myself if I knew the font! I also second the motion for one for mytouch slide.
[Android Themes] DARKKRAKEN:
The font is Terminal i believe
[Android Themes] juttschallenger:
Works great on my DINC
[Android Themes] Hooterman:
I don't have the exact font link or anything, I just copy/pasted letters already in the animation to write out what I wanted. It didn't take too long.

The problem that we're having now is getting our newly edited versions of this to animation to play correctly, if you have any ideas on how to get that working please share.
[Android Themes] KillaHurtz:
The bootanimation.zip is supposed to be just for storage. When you are zipping them make sure you set the compression to 'storage'. Android will not play/read compressed bootanimation.zip. Trust me I made this one for HD2 & couldn't get it to work til this week :D

I'm willing to add the HD2 boot I tweaked since android has gone NAND for it.

OP if you want it contact me :)
[Android Themes] Hooterman:
Damnit, this whole time that was my only problem! Haha

After zipping my files up as "Store" (using 7-Zip) they worked perfectly the first time. Thank you!!
[Android Themes] KillaHurtz:
No problem bro ! Enjoy !
[Android Themes] fone_fanatic:
I'm having a little problem as well. Trying to make one for the Dell Streak. If i edit one .png in photoshop, am i supposed to save it a certain way?

Currently i'm editing just the first .png (replacing google nexus one with dell streak) saving the png, and since i'm on a mac, i found out how to zip it with no compression i have to use terminal

zip -r0 bootanimation.zip bootanimation

then i push it to my streak using adb

adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local

Now when i attempt to test it using the following command in terminal

adb shell bootanimation

the screen just blacks out for a really short burst and back to normal :/

so is my issue with the .png file i edited or with the compression?
[Android Themes] Hooterman:
I didn't use Photoshop, I just used Paint.net, but the only thing special I did with my edited PNG's was make sure they were saved in 32-bit depth, like the original ones were.

Sometimes the 'adb shell bootanimation' command doesn't work for me, not sure why. Did you try restarting the phone just to test and see if it runs or not?
[Android Themes] fone_fanatic:
adb shell bootanimation[/url] works good for me, i pushed the original boot animation and tested it, worked, then pushed the one i edited, didn't work, then pushed another one and tested it and it worked..

I'm gonna try just unzipping and re-zipping it with no changes to the files to see if the way i'm zipping it is whats causing the problem.
[Android Themes] fone_fanatic:
ok, so i gave up on my mac and jumped over to my pc.

If i simply unzip the bootanimation.zip from the first post, then right click-> 7-zip -> add to archive -> then select zip for archive format and Store as the compression level. Everything else in 7zip is blank, press ok and it makes the bootanimation.zip

i use adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local and i get no boot screen.. It just shows the initial Dell boot logo then black screen till the device actually boots :(

what am i doing wrong?
[Android Themes] Hooterman:
Hmm, other than making sure your PNG's are 32-bit, it sounds like you did the same process as me. Does the original one work ok on your Streak?
[Android Themes] fone_fanatic:
Yes the original one does work...

Something must be wrong with my 7-zip..

and now i can't get adb to work on my PC! if its not one thing.. its something else.

----update---

i just thought of something.. maybe the file permissions isn't correct?nvm that didn't fix it..

do i have to sign the bootanimation.zip or anythign?

this is really frustrating me!

----stupid me------

i knew it would be some stupid mistake i was making!!

I was zipping bootanimation folder to bootanimation.zip instead of bootanimation.zip only having part1 part2 & desc.txt *FACEPALM*
[Android Themes] fone_fanatic:
Dell Streak

Ok, here it is modified for the Dell Streak.

Consider this a beta as i still want to do a bit more, mainly to the 2nd part (folder part1).

Thanks to everyone and mainly to frysee for creating the original as i would of probably gone crazy if i had to create this from scratch (editing it alone was tedious enough!).

Oh also this IS NOT a zip to be flashed via Recovery, just put it in /Data/Local with either Root Explorer or ADB and you should be good to go.

Rename Streak_Bios_bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip and get that into /Data/Local and you'll be good to go ;)
[Android Themes] nique0201:

[Android Themes] Hooterman:
I posted it a couple pages ago, but here it is again:

http://www.mediafire.com/?83rpr9uhl7ex7d2

It's for CM6.1.1 and has edits done to it to show the 16GB sd card I have in mine and some other Evo specific memory settings.
[Android Themes] nique0201:
I trieddto flash it and it says no update scrip found or do i have to push it?
[Android Themes] Hooterman:
As far as I know you have to push these.
[Android Themes] nique0201:
im in the directory in cmd prompt but i dont know the command to push it would you mind typing it so i can just copy and past it!!

ive done a CM7, Android 2.3, 1000mhz boot animation.... just cos i am a CM geek :P
[Android Themes] waynefox:
Hi. Sorry for asking a stupid question but

Will this only work on a CM ROM?

I have a Desire with the standard HTC Rom (rooted using unRevoked)

I have tried flashing the Bootanimation zip via recovery and also pushing it via ADB but both times I still get the Standard Boot screen
[Android Themes] Hooterman:
I'm probably not the most educated person on this to give advice, but I can say that I've had it working with both the CM and Baked Snacks roms. Whether or not it works with the stock rom I don't know though, sorry.
[Android Themes] waynefox:
ok Thanks

Will take a look again tonight. I'm doing something wrong somewhere

Does it work with LG Optimus ONE?

Thank you
[Android Themes] Pneuma1985:
Amazing boot screen i finally got it working after reading about 50 pages worth of posts lol... NEED TO MAKE IT CLEAR that there is another bootloader.zip file inside the one you download and you need to push that file only...Didn't quite get that until the 10th attempt of black screen bootloads... LOL Awesome job Its very cool..

I remember seeing someone say it reminds them of the old days hell all pcs basically boot like that so not sure what that means...
[Android Themes] Balloonio:
Boot animation.

Who can create to me animation for android loading. I have a picture and in a picture there is a place, in this place it is necessary to put running to a drain as at loading windows xp.?
[Android Themes] Pneuma1985:
Im not even sure what that means??? Trying to insert an image into a file and make that image run into a drain????

Well since I don't even know what that question was I will answer it vaguely... To start an animation you can use photoshop gif editor and insert the animation or you can use after effects to visually see each frame set frame rate and compression. Oh yeah me thinks you need to brush up on your english a tad bit.. Didn't understand that request at all!
[Android Themes] waynefox:
I think I might have spotted the problem.

My current boot screen is in /system/customization/resources and that is read only.

I can't find any way to push or flash to that location or any way to change it to rw
[Android Themes] coiledwire:
This is what I do:

Assuming you're rooted, download "root explorer" from the market. Its a few bucks, but well worth it IMHO.

You can navigate to this folder in the app and mount it as rw. Then you can move any boot animation you want into this folder.
[Android Themes] waynefox:
Just tried the suggestion with Root Explorer but that isn't working. It attempts to copy the file but still fails to write to that folder even after mounting rw.

Thanks for the advice but it looks like this mod isn't possible on my phone
[Android Themes] coiledwire:
Did it still says that you couldn't write to the system folder? I just tried on my phone; in the resource folder, I selected the "mount rw" button at the top and I was able to move and copy any file.

Sorry it doesn't work for you.
[Android Themes] capocchione:

Dear Sir, May I ask how you went about editing it?
[Android Themes] frysee:
Well, I guess this thread won't die off EVER ;).

After tinkering with my new Nook Color yesterday I decided to revive this thread with at least one new bootanimation (I know it says CM7 and still shows the HC bee at the end. The 'bee part' happened while I tried blue's HC port and uses some more of that 1024x600px and turned out pretty nicely imho):

<click for full 1024x600px>

I made this to fit my own personal setup, so please don't request any alternative versions at the moment. If you feel the urge to modify to your taste, just grab the file from the first post and extract the pngs. The bootanimation.zip inside the tar file is

not flashable via CWR/Amon Ra

, so you will need to use your preferred method of pushing files to your /system or /data folder.

im flashing the new nook bios zip thru amon ra and its keeps aborting. how do i install this in my nexus running cm 7 nighlies. any help pls
[Android Themes] frysee:
Did you read my post? ;)

The zip needs to be applied via ADB or using a root explorer app, there is no update.zip at this time. Make sure you put it in the right location, /system/media should do the job on your CM7 Nook :)

I'm using a Nexus S with Cm7 RC2, if you can make it work for my phone that would be great!
[Android Themes] frysee:

[Android Themes] frysee:
There used to be a EVO version a few pages back but I had problems to track down the right path to push it to. Manually pushing the bootanimation.zip to /system/media SHOULD work for CM7-based ROMS.

[Android Themes] frysee:
There is no device-specific information in desc.txt. If you want to change any text you'll need to extract bootanimation.zip and edit the png files. If you just want to get the new HC style ending instead of the green + white one, just tell me which bootanimation.zip you are using and I'll make a quick edit.

I tried that before (also with /data/local etc..), and it sort of works I guess. I get part of the bootanimation for a wuick second, then the phone boots. I used the bootanimation from this thread (BIOS-bootanimation-OC-1612) and modified the .pings to my liking, but nothing else.

edit: I should add that it works fine in Android Revolution HD 3.2, and it's in /data/local.

I never bothered trying the original one because all I had done was edit some .png files in the .zip without replacing any or changing names, but apparently I'm retarded because the original works. I'm sorry for wasting your time, I'll figure out what stupid mistake I've made with the pngs.

The animation is a little too fast though, runs quickly and ends slightly too early, how can I fix this? Sorry for all the questions..
