[Q] removing splash - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is there anyway of going without a splash screen, and just having bootanimation run from the time you turn on phone till desktop pops up??
i have search forums cant find anything, or overlooked it.

As for no splash screen, I don't believe so. If you wanted, you could make a blank one of sort if it bothers you that much.

it doesnt bother me, hell got a custom one installed, i just have one bootanimation that gets cut off cause my phone loads fast, and i dont see whole bootanimation. so a blank one would do the same. but ty

Well if you needed it to be longer, you could try getting a different one, or decreasing the frames per second.

no you can't. the splash is a very basic image, that is executed by the boot.img alone, while the boot.img is loading the system. once the system is (at least partially) loaded, it can start the boot animation. correct me if i'm wrong (probably am) but i think that's how it works. either way, you need a splash.

Yea..the more elaborate version of my post.
teh metaldude strikes again. haven't seen him lately.

cool guys thanx for all the responding, i will stick with bootanimation i have. and to get full animation that i wanted i would to increase frames per sec. to see more of the animation instead of decreasing making it slower and seeing less of the animation. but again thanx for your help. glad i joined this forum it has been a big help since rooting my evo

not the boot screen, the boot ANIMATION. the one that on the default has the scrolling "android". if you want to know how to change it on non-hero builds, check out the tutorial I made. the link to it is in my signature.
OO awright thats the one i wanted to learn that but i thought it was the one b4 the logo thanks doe

Eyes do not flash it's just the first screen that you see then it's the normal android bootup after that. But if you want to grab it feel free. My girl actually gave me an idea for one but have not had time to work on it yet might do it later this week.
maybe off topic idk

Juggalo Animation
For any Redwings fans
I made this for my animation earlier.
It's from a picture of my Halloween costume from last year. A clown with a chainsaw. The shine makes a neat effect in the ring around the picture.

[Q] Possible to port red rage boot animation?

Ive been trying to port this animation and haven't really gotten anywhere. I thought I had an idea but i'm pretty sure it's bunk due to the size of this animation (somewhere around 15megs for the OG droid). Anyone have any advice on how to get this working with the G2?
Here's the youtube for it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EF_vfEs6Jok
Here is the bootanimation.zip that was developed for the droid 1 earlier this year, I had a tough time finding it as every site link was broken, what's up with that?
http://www.mediafire.com/?gwim34391f17akx
Any help would be appreciated, at first I would somewhat play but now all it does is just jump straight to the home screen (no animation whatsoever).
BTW, I saw that there were a couple other boot animation threads here however I didn't want to thread jack with questions about this animation. If this is deemed redundant then it's cool to get rid of it, just frustrated right now.
The g2 is probably booting too fast for the entire animation to load and play.
That's what I was thinking, whouda thought that there would be a day that a phone would boot to fast. lol
I found a good site that explains the desc.txt which is what I was wanting to edit.
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-hacks/33932-bootanimation-zip-file-explained.html
So is this ultimately a no go?
If I were you I would just try incresing the fps from 30 to 60 and see if more of it shows.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 running Cyanogenmod.
Well, I managed to get it running again, was compressing it the wrong way after editing.
IDK, I think this phone just boots too fast for such a large animation, I mean...there's like 300+ PNG's to load before the phone boots. Maybe go even higher with the FPS? I doubt that would do anything.
If you went any higher I think you'd lose the effect of the boot animation. Running cyanogenmod from the beginning of the cyanogenmod animation to phone ready is about 6-7 seconds lol...
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 running Cyanogenmod.
bumping a super old thread looking for support.
i saw the video for this bootanimation and thought it looked really good.
it is a rather large and lengthy bootanimation and i tried for a couple of hours trying to get it to at least show up on my g2 all night, but, got nothing.
i dont know what the problem could be though. i managed to get a bootanimation from over at the evo forums to work but cant get this one up and running.

Boot Anim help...

I have a boot anim I put together that is attached. First I take NOOOOOOOOOO credit what so ever. Just pieces from other roms that I put to how I want it to look. Problem is that it won't boot up on my EVO. All I get is a black screen and then after about 10 seconds my phone loads to home screen. NO BOOT ANIMATION...lol. I know I jacked it up somewhere but since I haven't the slightest what I'm doing, I was hoping one of you more talented members could take a look at it for me.
I looked a few places but nothin really helped at all. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Sooooo attachments aren't working, huh? Well nevermind then...

Are you pushing it via adb, or are you using root explorer?
Root explorer. I've been reading about pushing files (a lil bit) but I get confused...lol. I've changed boot anim b4 with just using root explorer but this time it just didn't work. I'm guessing that may need to be the way to go?!?!?
Reboot just incase somebody has some other info or suggestion. Not a big deal but this anim I put together kicks @$$. Can't attach bcuz of the file size tho. Really hope you guys can help.
PS. I did see this post on boot animations but it kinda confuses me. Sorry if the explanation by this guy was str8 foward and I'm an idiot but I just don't get it. And I'm "smart"...so I thought. Any help would be a blessing!!!

Droid X type Boot animation

Ok, i've been searching around for the last hour in various places for a bootanimation i used to have on my Desire, as far as i can make out so far it's a mix between the Verizon Droid x advert and the Droid x red eye..........can't find it for love nor money, starts off with the human eye looking about, then morphs into the Droid eye looping. Anyone have it?
this is part of it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOnC5chCag0
Which then went into this sort of thing
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7D5nsVn9XM
And just realised i should have put this in the Q & A section!
this looks cool i want it as well!
I can't find it for the life of me, restored my laptop since i had it, and not got my Desire anymore........tried trawling on here and Phandroid forum but can't locate it.
Ok, i've eventually stumbled across the animation i had,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=774180
Just need to figure out WTF i have to do with it to get it onto the X
Please do as i also liked this very much
Well, i've got this one onto my phone, running LeeDrOiD rom (bootanimation in System/customize/resorce) , no idea if i have done it right, but it works......although there are a few frames that could do with a bit of work, some of the transition frames show lines form being different sized pictures originally. I have no photoshop skills at all and have no idea how i would go about adjusting these frames, struggling a little with the size as well, the red eye part is slightly stretched and no matter what i try when resizing the images i can't get it to look quite right.
Also, i tried to get the last set of frames from the original to loop, but when i tried doing this there was a noticable blank section before starting the loop, so i just renamed the frames again and again until it was just about long enough. Probably the completely wrong way of doing it but like i said...i know nothing!
try asking tattari for help, he is great with photoshop, and his team are all good devs.
Thanks, i'll send him a pm and see if he can offer any advice/help.
I have managed to get it in proportion now, although it doesn't quite fill the whole screen but still looks good.
The only problem i see with it is with 5 images in the transition between human eye to robot eye, you can see the lines from the picture being a different size.
I have pm'd the lad who made the original to make sure he is ok with me trying to get it on my X, but looking from his profile he doesn't come on here anymore. (CYBERxNUKE)
Almost got this ready, will be available soon.
Need someone to test this who has bootanimation in /data/local
Aroma installer works fine for /system/customize/resource, just need to check with other Bootanimation locations.
Why can't I manually copy the file? installer not needed I guess.where is the file that u want to test.I'll be glad to do it.

You could manually install it if you extract the bootanimation.zip, just trying to make it easier...i've Pm'd you the download link if you wish to try the installer. Also could you let me know if the delete bootsound option works?
Any feedback would be much appreciated.
Will probably be adding the release later on today

The white Google logo at the beginning when you turn the phone on.
All the other images I found are not of high enough quality.
This?
Yes. But the original one from the phone.
What's different about it?
The logo is bigger, and the resolution is 768x1280.
Is there anyway to extract the original one from the phone? I need it to be exact.
I don't think you wanna mess around with this since the so called boot splash is built in to the kernel. If you know this stuff, change it in your kernel at the high risk of a brick and if you're a noob like me, just let it be.

So by replacing this image with the same file name out will boot the new image?
Does file size matter?
Yes, I just want to make it part of my boot animation. I need the actual image so I can mess around with it and add new things to it.

You should also find out if the size of the image makes a difference with noting or is updates
I tried other images I found on Google Images but the resolution are too small.
I enlarged and expanded to size but it makes the Google Logo blurry and the detail deteriorates extremely.
Is there a way I can extract the original image?
Please.
Again.
I don't understand... Why don't you just get the highest res Google logo you can find on Google images and put it against a 768x1280 background?

Wow. You're like one of those people that call tech support and give the most vague answers and descriptions turning what could have been a 10 minute call into a 2 hour call. It took two pages just to understand what you were wanting, lol. Ok, ok...now that i've picked on you, i'll be serious. To help you out in future requests, it's always best to give out as much info as possible. What is the request, what is it for. It's always best to give out too much information rather than too little.
I agree with another poster here. Just download a high res google logo and slap it onto a background the size you need. Gimp is free and can do just this.
Oh, also found this (just happened to be browsing in the boot animations thread. I haven't seen the animation itself, but it's the logo from the splash screen with 2 gears under it. I'm sure with a small amount of editing, you can get this to do what you want.

I don't see what the big deal is. He asked for an image and you guys all get into his business as,img what it's for. It doesn't matter, he just asked for the image.. you are the one making this complicated.
Now, OP you can probably find an image on google images or try to figure out how to extract it rom the splash image
