Hi!

If somebody wants to make a bootanimation.zip, here is a little explanation I found on another forum about the desc.txt:

320 480 15 width, height, frame rate
p 1 0 foldername play 1 time, then pause for 0 frames
p 2 30 otherfolder play 2 times, pause 30 frames after each loop
p 0 0 andanother play infinite times, no pause between loops

The file has to be in Unix format! That means, that the line breaks should be only CR (instead of CR+LF - that's what windows uses). Easiest way to convert a "Windows .txt" to a "Unix .txt" is with dos2unix (downloadable here: http://www.bastet.com/).

Also, make sure when you compress the .zip file set it to "store" - so NO compression! (In WinRAR for example, if you're making the file: Archive Format: ZIP, Compression Method: Store)

P.S would it work if you edit the frame rate for part1 folder (where the images loop on boot)?

Hi!

Here you go :) I've made them from the frames extracted from the original videos, they're much better quality. I've made 2 versions, 1 facing left (bootanimation_l.zip) and 1 facing right (bootanimation_r.zip). Hope you like it. Also, I've updated my C64 animation a little, it's a little shorter now (bootanimation_c.zip).

let me start by saying thanks to all who designed these boot anims :)

i take no credit for any of these, ive just made them a little easier for those of us that have xrecovery installed to install them.

simply copy to sd card and flash as a custom zip in xrecovery :)

for those of you wishing to do more this way , just open one of the zips in 7zip and replace the bootanimation.zip with the one of your choosing.

No. It works as follows:

The p is critical. The next number is how many times it plays through. The next number is the delay before going to the next folder of frames. The last part is the folder names. The top line you have right, but dont put an empty line between anything.

Hi !

Im new to android,

and i just cant seem to figgure out

how to push the files from my pc over to the device.

Copy\Paste with RootExplorer from SD doesnt work,

Tried with Adb, but got: Opperation Not Permitted.

What the heck did you guys do ? :p

Help appriciated :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] freco:
Doesn't work for me.

There was no such folder at the firstplace. I create it with root explorer and copy in startupshow.zip (actualy tried changing names and files with no luck).

I even lost original SE startup logo.

What did I do wrong?

EDIT.1: I just find out that the path was wrong. It's /system/etc/semc/startupshow/default/startupshow.zip.

How To Cange Boot Screen With RootExplorer.

I don't know the commands using ADB, as RootExplorer is what I always use.

Find the files on your SD card, preferably they will be in their own folder as it makes selecting and copying easier. Once you have found them, press the menu button which will open the following window...

...click Multi-Select, Select All, then Copy...

...browse to /system/etc/semc/startupshow/default/, where you should now see the files that you are going to replace. If you see the following window when you select Paste, then click the button that is circled, and click Paste again, which should then overwrite the original files...

...reboot your phone and you should now see your new bootscreen.

I've got a question...

I replaced the original bootscreen with the android green flare screen.

But after the last picture, my bootscreen stops for about 3 or 4 seconds until the lockscreen appears.

Is it possible to duplicate some pictures (maybe to 40 pictures instead of 30), so that the bootscreen takes longer?

It's not so nice when the bootscreen run very fast through and stops at the last picture...

Thank you ;)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] SXUsr:
I couldn't answer that, but with the original startup images, the last two images in the sequence are the same but just different sizes, so with the screens I've edited kept it the same.

Name the downloaded ones from whatever to 00000, 00001 etc till the end one.. and then open each png image into paint and resize it to 240 -320 in pixels.. Then load it up on your sdcard and move or copy the images from sdcard in root explorer to system, etc, semc, bootslideshow.. Must of deleted the old ones or moved them incase you want them again..

@TrietHocNhanSinh: the way i did it was this (using root explorer):

go into the /system/etc/semc/startupshow/ folder and rename the default folder to default.old. i then browsed back to my /sdcard/hacks/startup/ folder where i stored the new boot files and long pressed on the default folder and copied it. I then browsed back to the original /system/etc/semc/startupshow/ folder and pasted the new default folder. Inside /system/etc/semc/startupshow/ i now have 2 folders, default and default.old. i rebooted the phone, confirmed that it was all working and then deleted the default.oldfolder.
