Does anyone know how to create boot animations?!?!?
TX running through my veinz!!!
They are just a series of .png files then put in a zip file named bootanimation.zip and I'm not sure about your ROM but usually in system/media folder

Our phone uses a .qmg file. Also for the method you mentioned make sure to not compress the .zip or it won't work, it needs to be "storage only".
Search bootanimation in the Android theme section. How to make bootanimation in google. There is an app to help in the Android app section. It's a set of pngs,data which sets the size and loops. The app creates the zip for you but not the pngs. .... I know there was a thread that explained everthing. If it's not in Android themes search in vibrant theme section since that's the only other place I could have seen it.
Thanks guys... you really helped me out a lot.

i didn't find the bootup sound yet but i'm trying to find it in the next few minutes

it's located in
/system/etc/
exactly:
/system/etc/poweron.wav
for me there are 2 files...
/system/etc/1_Power_on.ogg
/system/ect/poweron.wav
i do only need the poweron.wav file
Sent from my overclocked GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Here's the poweron.wav but I don't have the poweroff.wav. I rebooted my phone to double check and it doesn't play a sound when it shuts down.
Ehhh...
And if I would like to make my OWN bootanimation; how do I create the filetype?
SGS1 forum Themes section has some boot animations .
Most are multiple png files zipped .

One word: Awesome!
Gonna try it! I'll let you guys know if it worked.
/edit
Works like a charm! I just renamed 1_Power_on.ogg and poweron.wav and had no bootsound anymore.
zomg it took multiple searches to find this thread haha
many thanks for uploading the stock boot stuff!
Many thanks for this great thread. Got rid of the stupid T-Mobile branding

It worked on my Sprint Epic 4G Touch. Thanks a lot....
I was wondering if you know how to fix this issue too:
I flashed batista rom before and there is a custom bootscreen where it states that it is batista and stuff like that... it's not an animation, just a static bootscreen.
After flashing other custom roms, it still appears.. i was on cognition and now with touch x-power+ but it still remains... only if i flash a stock kernel it shows the old bootscreen with the yellow triangle...
you know how to get rid of that screen?
thanks
+1
I've got the same problem. Batista boot logo is still there after the yellow triangle was removed with a jig.
Hey, is it possible to use bootanimation.zips instead of those .qmgs? I've got some pretty cool animations but idk how to use them on this phone...

well theres a way
guys theres no way to edit those .qmg formats.....but theres a way we can make our phones use zip formats.....this mod is for froyo and gingerbread.you can try on honeycomb and ics but follow the precautions given in the end:
1.go to system/bin folder....find the file named samsungani ,rename it to samsungani.bak.....
2.then find the file bootanimation in the same folder,rename it to samsungani...set its permissions as rwxr-xr-x.if you dont understand these permissions then simply check the permissions of any other file in the same folder and set the same permissions.
3.place your bootanimation.zip in system/media and set its permissions ---rwxr-x
4.now, when i did this on my phone,i entered a bootloop and even after my phone had booted properly,the custom bootanimation kept playing .thank god i have and external keyboard and when i opened it the screen orientation changed .now,the bootanimation was unable to cover the whole screen,so some part of the screen became visible, i used that part to go to system/bin/samsungani and i renamed it back to bootanimation,then i rebooted and there was no bootanimation
due to above problems i suggest u to use a bootanimation of the smallest possible size.that way ,even if u enter a bootloop the bootanimation will cover a small part of the screen and u will be able to revvert the changes .
actually ,gingerbread needs custom kernel to support the above mod,thats why i entered a bootloop.....all of us have different kernels so not all will encounter the same problem.....
please hit thanks button if i helped.......(really important ,otherwise the mod wont work
Simple method use a kernel that supports boot animation zip and place boot animation.zip in system/media folder job done .

Thank you!

It works on Samsung Galaxy note 2 but the dimensions of bootanimation.zip must be instead 720/1280 » 360/640.
Merry Christmas!
People are using different rom's , some other are asking for specific mod etc
Could someone write some guide how to do it, to enlight those who are not aware ?
Take the framework-res.apk from your current rom and upload it to http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen
Once uploaded go to battery mod and select the battery style u want and cook it.
When its cooked extract the framework-res.apk from the downloaded file and either replace it with root explorer or push it with adb back into the phone.

Depends of which rom you are running but if you use VillainRom I think you need to open your modded framework with 7-zip and replace "META-INF" directory with the one found in the original framework of your rom. This is needed to sign the file.
However I'm not sure you use VillainRom (where files must be signed) and I didn't use yet the kitchen ... but your feedback is usefull if you want to try ...

Ok so ignore what I said upper ... should be only for signature of the rom (not needed in stock roms).
Anyway ... if someone has the solution ...
I always made that on my own...
Open the decompiled .xml in the framework-res.apk, edit those lines, add my own battery.pngs and that was all...
I didnt test it on my sgs2... But it should be the same way to get it...

could you tell which .xml to edit and what to add within the file?
I juz grab one of the batt mod out there and replace the .png files under /res/drawable-hdpi-v4 with the ones I want. guess its kind of a lazy way to do it=)
I have KE2 and get a "signature verification failed" error when trying to apply the UOT.zip file :-(
Anyone some idea how to get this applied?
Also my original framework-res.apk file doesn't have any folder called "/res/drawable-hdpi-v4" but the UOT file has!?

Boot animation based a HD version of the PS1 intro. I do have the remastered sound, but I'm currently running CM9 and that doesn't support boot sound yet.
The boot animation is about 8 seconds shorter than the original 15 seconds simply because the phone boots so fast you wouldn't be able to go through the entire animation otherwise.
I also blacked out the "Licensed by Sony Computer Entertainment America" because it would either be cut off using 400x800 resolution or I'd have to drastically change the aspect ratio in order to fit it in.
I'll upload a .gif or a series of .jpg's later.
sorry im a noob here... how to use it?

You have to use Root explorer (or equivalent), and replace the bootanimation.zip in the /System/Media folder.
Just make sure that system is set to r/w.
Or use a PC and using Winrar or winzip replace the file within your original Rom. Zip.

OK apologies. I'm running an Aosp Rom.
Samsung Roms have a different Media folder setup. It will be worth asking in your Rom forum.

Zip it using WinRAR or 7zip, using Store compression method.
Make sure your desc.txt is consistent, eg if you only have one folder then only one entry should be used on desc.txt.
Bootanimation is consisted of images (for me seems that OP is trying to make a boot animation using videos), I mostly use PNG and JPEG/JPG.
A new boot animation doesn't increases the boot time, unless you use a super awesome boot animation that has 50+Mb size. Try to keep it small.
I don't know if this will change something, but I've never used a interlaced PNG file. So, don't save PNG as interlaced.
Remember to set the correct permissions on phone!
I think this should be enough for your bootanimations to work Also, check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678540.
Okay here is your answer...Also go check mine- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663859
Making zip(easy way):
1.Download bootanimation creator and previewer- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1234611
2.Install both
3.Take your .png files and copy them into part0 and part1(If u have one)folders
4.Copy both those folders into one new folder
5.Open bootaniamation creator and select your folder
6.change your values fps etc.
7.Set loop for part0 folder to 1
8.Set loop for part1 folder to 10
9.Save bootanimation and copy to system/media
Making flashable zip:
1.Copy your bootanimation.zip (The one u made above rename to bootanimation.zip) to a new folder named media and cut media into a new folder named system
2.Zip it up
3.Download META-INF folder (atached) and extract it - http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?l4opf3nn4w10p0a
4.Go inside the folder and go in META-INF/com/google/android
5.Open Updater-Script with notepad++/Scite(I prefer it) I already made it just edit bootanimation created by ...
5.And add it to your zip
Also when u create a flashable zip permisions will be set as it is in updater-script so this should resolve your problem as it forces the phone to set permisions
Making a preview:
1.Go to gif ninja.com
2.Uploud your .png's in your part folders
3.Create the gif
4.Wait....
5.Right click on image and click properties
6.Copy the link
7.Use it as a image in XDA!
