Really... not long enough? I haven't had to loop any yet... not sure how to do that. I can just make a longer animation for you if you like! It would be a tad bit bigger file. But thats not really a problem.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kamiller42:
Here are some ideas I think would be interesting.

1. Android Pac Man - This animation is a 3 part act.

Act 1: The boot animation starts with a maze and the Pac Man startup tune. The Pac Man is Droid of course. The ghosts are can look and act like the original game ghosts or some how represent mobile phone competitors of the past.

Act 2: The game begins, Pac Man siren plays, and Droid moves around the maze eating the dots. At one point, it eats a power pellet and eats the transformed ghosts which have been moving around the maze. The power pellets can look like the original or be the logos of 4 major mobile carriers, Sprint, AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. (There were 4 power pellets on the original.) The eating of the carrier logos signifies Android's adoption by the carriers and power growth through the adoption.

Act 3: Remember the game would periodically show fruit for Pac Man to eat for bonus points? Droid will do the same, and the fruit which appears should be obvious, an apple. :) It has to make that gulp sound when it eats it.

Another idea is a boot animation based on the game Echochrome. It's a simple black and white game with 3D levels which mess with your perspective. A stick figure man walks around the level. You have to guide him from point A to B. It's a simple graphics game which has classy background music.

I figure an Echochrome like boot animation where the stick figure man walks around a level designed to look like Droid. Droid would have to be sort of 3D looking of course for it to work. You have to get creative in how you design the level to appear and the track the stick figure will walk. The background music would need to be the same classical kind of music Echochrome uses.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SamJamz:
The Pac Man Idea is a good one... I don't know if I can get into the detail your talking about. You have to remember that this animation is only up for a matter of seconds.... and to try and make it do all that in that period of time would be tough. But I'll see what I can do. I like the idea of the pac man being the droid and some how working the mac apple in there...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SamJamz:

Am I doing something wrong with trying to install this.. erased the "4" from the end of bootanimation.zip, put it on my sd's root folder, boot into recovery, flash zip..?? It says

E: Can't find update script

Installation aborted.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SamJamz:
You dont flash this kind of file. Get the pushboot.zip from the Fourm "easy way to load your boot animations" after you unzip it, take the file and simply place it in the same folder as the files PushBootCM6 and PushBoot2. Once you have done that, depending on what rom your using, click on that icon. For example... I'm using a CM rom... so I double click on PushBootCM6. After that, follow the promts and you should be home free...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jdmsohc22:
Is this compatible with VirusROM..??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SamJamz:
I haven't tried it on that rom. But it should be... Plus I remember someone else telling me that it was the rom they were using and it worked fine. When you push it using bootpush, use the PushBoot2 icon, and you should be fine. The only rom that give problems that I've seen is the CM roms... and by problem I mean I cant get the sound to play
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jdmsohc22:
Alright cool, I've only flashed boots through recovery so I'm reading on how to use PushBoot, sounds complicated lol...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SamJamz:
I swear to you it really isn't... Its sooooo easy! :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jdmsohc22:
wow that was easy... I wish I could speed up the flames in that boot with the Android and flames lol, they are kinda slow on my phone and make it look laggy..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SamJamz:
Unfortionately that i can't help you with. I've discovered that each phone is different depending on what rom your using and how fast your processor is operating.

Ahahaha grill em all burgers so good they make a tad pole smack a whale. Ahaha just saw the finale tonight.

Hey samjamz I love your work here and I tried to put on pacdroid. Problem is when I rebooted...it wasn't any of your animations. :-/ the animation that showed on my phone was just the word ANDROID shining like it was metalic

:confused:

Any help would be great
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SamJamz:
Thats a new one.... I'm not sure what that could be. All the animations are created the same way. They all are tested on a few different roms before they are posted, so I know they work just fine. I would repeat your steps. Just put the file in the same folder, then push it using the correct Pushboot icon. Not sure what else I could tell you...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] cubanjinx:
It shouldn't be a prob that im using root explorer to manually place it right? Considering they're not flashable zips

Hi,

I have loaded a custom SPalsh screen to my phone.

named the File: PC36IMG.zip

pit it on the root of my SD Card

Booted into HBOOT and applied the update.

It worked fine.

But, do i do the same thing for custom Boot animations?

Name it: bootanimation.zip (all caps or not)

place it on the root of my SD Card

Boot into HBOOT and apply the Zip?

It appears I skipped over the answer to this question in an earlier post.

Something about using pushboot.zip
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SamJamz:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fmedina2:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
Splash screens you load in hboot. animations you just place in system/ media or system/customize/resource. At least that's most droids. Not sure about evos. Point is pushing is unnecessary. Its really very easy. Find out where the animation is on your phone rename it properly and use root explorer to move it
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SamJamz:

Would you look at these pictures and see if you could make an animation of one of the pictures that would turn with the red flames on the side. this is my grandsons Little League championship team.

I forgot there were a couple of pet pictures in the file. The team is the Hub City Heat.

A donation will be forthcoming.

His phone is an Evo. A flashable zip would be appreciated also.

The instructions for pushbook looked easy but when the phone gets into recovery it will not push bootanimation onto phone.

I am using amon_ra recovery. Does that make any difference. The error message says there are duplicate files. I have only one file called bootanimation.zip in my pushboot folder. What could be the problem.

My phone is recognized and everything looks good until i get the duplicate file message.

Edit Used Pushboot instead of pushboot2 and it worked. Running Myn 2.2 rls 5 on Evo.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SamJamz:
I have tested these animations with all different types of Roms. From what I gather, cm roms for some reason always have that slow down. It's tough to find a happy medium with these animations because everyone is running something different. So in answer to your question it's not animation that causes the slowdown it's the rom your running! The sense roms and sprint based roms work the best with any animation.
