Re: [PRJ] All Boot Animations for HTC Desire

Hmm... just you 2?

When I get home I will investigate for you. Weird tho. Just checking but you both have desires? And bootanimation is in /data/local?

Stupid questions, I know but have to check these things.

EDIT: Ok, I have downloaded the file, and can confirm it works and works well, the file structure is unchanged and the bootanimation works absolutely fine on my and my cousins device..

So im not really sure what to advise??, You both have root?, I know tell me how you are both installing these animations? (exactly please).
[Desire Themes and Apps] peewster:
Thanks for testing, i have root with DeFrost 9b. I have to put the bootanimations in 2 directories before they will work(/data/local, /system/media)

The thing is, when i boot my Desire, it first shows me the default white screen with the green htc letters. This takes about 5 till 10 seconds before the bootanimation jumps in.

So my guess is that the bootanimation could work if there's some way to remove the green/white htc logo from my phone.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Loccy:
Any chance you could do a version of the Matrix one without the green "loading" text? IMHO it is completely ruined by that.

Re: [PRJ] All Boot Animations for HTC Desire

Lucky I think I can as I still have the original saved give me till tomorrow, and it will be done:)
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Re: [PRJ] All Boot Animations for HTC Desire

Only problem is every device still has the white HTC at start it cannot be removed, or so I have read on various posts.
[Desire Themes and Apps] peewster:
Ok, then i still have no idea why it doesn't work here.

Is it possible to create one without the beating of apple, and only the one pissing on it?

I really appreciate that if you can.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Abomb:
Ha, was thinking exactly the same thing, I wanted only the peeing on apple loop, not the beating ... so here it is =)
[Desire Themes and Apps] peewster:
It's working! thanks for your time.
[Desire Themes and Apps] benko286:
Can you make a gif image of it, so that I can post it in first post ;)
[Desire Themes and Apps] nvivas:
Hi guys!

Have followed the guide in this forum and now i have defrost 9b.

Trying to get a bootanimation replacement, copied the file bootanimation.zip to the root of the device and followed the guide that states:

How to change boot animation

You need to have HTC Sync installed

Copy bootanimation.zip to SD Card

Turn off Desire and then turn it on while holding back button to enter bootloader(white screen)

Once in "white screen" press power button again to enter bootloader

Connect Desire with PC

Press Volume Down and than Power to enter Recovery

Open Command prompt/Terminal and type

Code:

adb shell mount /system

adb push C:\bootanimation.zip /data/local

adb reboot

Unplug your HTC and enjoy your new boot animation

"adb shell mount /system" does not work....

What am i doing wrong?!?

Appologies for my nubiness.
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Have you done "abd devices" to check the phone is being picked up properly?

if not make sure you can see you phone first :P (in the pc)
[Desire Themes and Apps] nvivas:
Ok.

with adb devices i get:

List of devices attached

HT04APL07804 recovery

if i do adb shell mount /system

i get the message:

- exec '/system/bin/sh' failde: No such file or directory (2) -

What did i do wrong?
[Desire Themes and Apps] kuailan:
I am not saying it's not working....just the animation where the android pissing is not showing??

Anyway, for your question, yes, I have root, and I am running Amer Bravo V3. I am using the r5 method. And yes I am using Desire just like stated in my signature.
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
This is what i cant understand, as i have a desire, i d/l the bootanimation, copied it over and all of it showed, so im not sure why mine works and yours dosent??

and for me personally the full animation dose work :/ so really not sure what your doing wrong if anything??
[Desire Themes and Apps] nvivas:
Can any of you give some tips regarding my previous question in page 2 please? (cant post links)
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
If i knew m8, i would of told you :P
[Desire Themes and Apps] koston1:
Same problem here ...

E: Ah k i found the solution, u need a custom Recovery Image (fake-flash)!
[Desire Themes and Apps] benko286:
Can you make on bootanimation37 that after animation finishes it says HTC quietly brilliant:)?
[Desire Themes and Apps] leodido:
thanks for the boot animations but I have a problem, I've done the operations and in the console said it correctly pushed the file but when rebooting I just have a black screen then I'm in android.

I have an HTC Desire rooted with Froyo Modaco R17
[Desire Themes and Apps] kimlindo:
Could someone repack the 'Android Scribble 2' so that it's compatible with ROM Manager? Would be super awesome!

Edit: I meant, so that I can install it from recovery mode. :P
[Desire Themes and Apps] unikum:
Like the matrix a lot. Wish the background letter would look like real letters thou. Can anybody maybe redo it to that? :rolleyes:
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Updated with Boot Changer App :P
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Added this anime i made :P

Added a new bootanimation to the app

But unfortuantly you have to buy the app to access all the new ones im making :(
[Desire Themes and Apps] Awake80:
My first bootanimation =)

1. Download bootanimation.zip from this adress:

easy-share.com/1911224914/bootanimation

2. in cmd, print this: adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local

3. reboot your phone and smile ;)
[Desire Themes and Apps] Giland:
Any screenshot of it ?
[Desire Themes and Apps] gumbald:
You'll probably find most people are unlikely to install it without seeing it... It could be a phallus or such.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Awake80:
No, i´m afraid not, but i think you will recognize it, let´s say it´s a statement ;)

And i can´t take credit for the original artwork, i borrowed a picture that has been around on the web for a while..
[Desire Themes and Apps] cTrox:
It's another Android-on-Apple-pissing animation. It looks better than the others, just from the Pictures in the .zip.
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Uploaded for you to see it :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] Tenhi:
I'm using DJ Droid new 2.2 rom with Sense UI, and I can't change bootanimation :(.

I've tried many of them, but after reboot there's still DJ Droid boot animation...

Edit: All fine now...Ignore :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] gosnis:

[Desire Themes and Apps] atze09:

[Desire Themes and Apps] landwomble:
Same here, rooted with Froyo DrDroid. Pushed to /data/local and system/media and I just get the HTC white screen followed by black screen before boot - no boot animation.

What am I missing?
[Desire Themes and Apps] roniez:
get rom manager installed their recovery rom, boot in to recovery.

go to partition menu, mount system with fake-flash aka rom manager recovery.

then do adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource
[Desire Themes and Apps] ljesh:
I had (have) the paid version, but didn't work for me on DJ DROID ROM. Uninstalling and requesting refund :/
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
If dj Droid is a custom Rom then no. The app is not compatible with froyo. Well custom froyo anyway. Only reported working with official froyo roms atm. The dev is looking into why.

The dev has a Droid with official froyo apparently..
[Desire Themes and Apps] StuMcBill:
I posted this over on MoDaco, but I thought I would try my luck here too.
[Desire Themes and Apps] roniez:
It's not working because in the boot procedure it only looks in /system/customize/resource. And not in /data/local where the app installs it.

Hope it makes it more clear
[Desire Themes and Apps] landwomble:
I've pushed it to both locations, and I still just get a black screen after the white HTC logo...
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Hello,

Just spoke to the dev on google chat, and he has confirmed it dose work look in both /data/local /system/customize/resource.

The dev also said if its not working to "Force write" the bootanimation, which is located in the setting in the app.

Hope this helps, the biggest problem is the dev dose not have a desire, i do but i dont want froyo untill its official, kinda saving my self, and i still get really excited when hearing froyo is close pmsl .

Please can you try the force write and report back here,

Many thanks.
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Have you ran a logcat to find out whats actually happining on your device? also what ROM are you on?
[Desire Themes and Apps] landwomble:
I'm on 2.2 Dj Droid.

Just run adb logcat: it's huge output - which bits would be helpful?
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
i suggest running logcat, and using the bootchanger app and look for any errors , and do a reboot to see if its giving any errors on boot
[Desire Themes and Apps] landwomble:
sorry, but could you elaborate? If I run logcat from terminal I get a massive output, and I can't find an app called bootchanger on the market...?
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Did you look at the first post the links are their..

im not really a developer so i would not know what to look for, but you can also run ddms, which is in the android tools directory that has a more detailed logcat i belive.
[Desire Themes and Apps] IeU:
will this remove that white htc boot image ?
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Can't be done till we have full access to the nand or so I have been told.

[Desire Themes and Apps] roniez:
When i push the file to system/customise/resource it works fine for me. I think. The best option. Is to look in to the boot procedures.
[Desire Themes and Apps] landwomble:
single data point: didn't work for me. Not buying the app to push these as presume if I can't do it manually then the app isn't going to work either. I'll keep checking back though in case anyone else finds this/solves this. Cheers
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Yea, spoke to a few differnt devs about this, it seems that the system/customise/resource folder is readonly and cannot be written to, and thats coming from a very high up dev on the same level as PaulObrian himself.

the only suggestion was for Paul to symlink that path to /data/local for it to work.

So yea atm not going to work :((
[Desire Themes and Apps] warrie87:
finally i got it to work!

I booted my phone into recovery and added a symlink for bootanimation.zip in /system/customize/resource to /data/local

Then put the bootanimation.zip in /data/local reboot phone and it works!

Testet with Modaco R4 refresh.

So from now on i can easily change bootanimations with pushing new bootanimation.zip to /data/local which is writeable everytime.
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Brilliant!! , Fair play m8 :P
[Desire Themes and Apps] khenderick:

[Desire Themes and Apps] KBanause:
I know, it's a long time since this post was made, but I found out how to get the bootanimation found in OpenDesire:

Just delete all bootanimation.zip files from your phone (or rename them). The animation OpenDesire is using is the standard animation (at least it is in DeFrosts ROM but I believe it's coming with FroYo).

Reboot your phone into recovery. Then launch "adb shell" with your phone connected to the PC.

Once on the shell, do:

# mount /sdcard

# mount /data

# mount /system

# cd /

# find . -name "bootanimation.zip"

Here you may get a list of some bootanimation.zip locations. Do for EVERY bootanimation.zip found (i.e. ./data/local/bootanimation.zip):

# mv [FULL PATH TO bootanimation.zip] [FULL PATH TO bootanimation.zip].bak

Example:

# mv ./data/local/bootanimation.zip ./data/local/bootanimation.zip.bak

After you have renamed all files found:

# cd /

# umount /system

# umount /data

# umount /sdcard

# exit

Then do a "adb reboot" and you should enjoy the standard android bootanimation.

Hi

would it be possible to remove the part as shown in the attached jpeg from the Bootanimation 17

also the boot animation pro is not showing up in the android market so i can't purchase it, is there another way i can get to change the boot animation

Thanks in advance

Raptor124
[Desire Themes and Apps] Raptor124:
found this way of changing the boot animation and it worked

1. Change the USB mode to Disk drive by dragging the notification bar down and clicking the USB notification.

2. Drag and drop the zip archive to the drive that appears in Explorer on your PC.

3. Rename that zip to bootanimation.zip.

4. Change the USB mode to Charge only.

5. Open Root Explorer and go into /sdcard.

6. Copy the file by holding your finger on it and selecting Copy.

7. Browse to /data/local and click the Paste button at the bottom.
[Desire Themes and Apps] potter1984:

If like the other desc.txt files, if you try to define a custome rez like 480x800 (our devices) it will NOT work, just black screen....

[BOOT] Simple dancing Tauren

Hey everyone, I was getting bored of that Nexus logo that came with nearly every rom, so I decided to make my own!

It's tested and working on AuraxTSense v7.6.1

This boot logo shows a dancing tauren while your phone is booting, what else could you possibly want!?

Installation:

1. Put the bootanimation.zip in your Android SDK Tools folder

2. Use ADP to push the zip to your phone (adb.exe push bootanimation.zip /data/local)

3. Reboot your phone and enjoy!
