[Q] coredroid 5.3 downanimation

Alright starting to get a bit frustrated while trying to put a downanimation on my DHD. I know in Sergio stated in his FAQ that the downanimation and bootanimation can now be found in /data/local and I really liked the coredroid bootanimation but wanted to use my bios one to go with my windows troll splash img.
Anyway I have converted the coredroid boot into a downanimation by changing images from jpg to png and then using the method found in Monx®'s thread to make sure it was zipped properly. But just comes up with a blank screen on reboot or shutdown.
Tried a couple of others and still get a blank screen, so just wondering if any1 else has the same problem?

it comes blank because zip file aint properly zipped... did u changed compression method to store in winrar ? or just send me the stuff and i will get it done for you and save u the hassel
Edit : oh snapp.. just noticed.. the file you pushed to data/local is it named bootanimation or downanimation ? if its downanimation.. then rename it to bootanimation... downanimations are not in data/loca

Thanks for the quick reply. I have attached my coredroid downanimation.zip which I had renamed to downanimation.zip before pushing it. As i said, I made sure compression was set to store.
I first pushed this to /data/local as it says to in Scabes' Coredroid FAQ

Then got a blank screen with both the coredroid downanimation and some other shutdown animations I have found in the DHD theme and apps section.
Then tried the chmod 777 to /system/customize/resource and was getting a blank screen and now cant turn the phone off, just keeps rebooting
EDIT:
couldnt attach downanimation haha

Not a reboot cycle, just wont turn off. I can use the phone but when I try to turn off the phone with power button to either shutdown or reboot, I get blank screen where down animation should b, give it a few seconds and straight away bootanimation comes up with out my splash image.
Used recovery and I'm back to my last backup before I started playing around with with boot/down animations and circle battery mod. Then push bootanimation back now that works.
Have yet to retry the downanimation yet.
Also just wondering does downanimation images have to be .png? or can they be jpg

i wanted to do it for ya but too many pics in the zip.. gona take me long time but im really busy sorry... but lemme make you a quick guide...
1. change all the pics to .png format
2. rename the pics to the name of the folder.. in ur case folder is coredroid so name the pics to coredroid_01.png to everyone just change the numbers to the count of the pics
3. after u do that put coredroid folder and desc.txt in one folder.. now zip these two files.. tip zip and compression to store in winrar ... then do the same again tip zip. then chagne to store.. but then in the uper tabs click on files.. and then below see file paths.. change it to donot store file paths..
4. now double click the zip file to open with winrar... and delete all the pics except coredroid folder and desc.txt.. make sure .zip is renamed to downanimation.zip if it isnt already
5. get root explorer and paste it to where ever ur downanimation.zip is and Hoalah!!! Njoy

[Q] bootanimation for speedmod kernel k15h t23

hey there!
I tried to change my bootanimation on 2.3.4 with the latest speedmod kernel ( kernel k15h t23), but instead of a new animation i got an bootloop showing the android logo.
i have copied my bootanimation.zip to system/media but the boot process stops as i saw an android logo. after reflashing i tried to copie the bootanimation to data/local (i read something about that place in different forums) but it crashes aswell at the android logo.
i put the bootanimation in the attachments and hope someone could help me!
thanks!

Did you try it with a supported Rom?

extract and push this file in your /system/lib folder
sometimes bootanimation binary are fu**ed up by rom cookers

he is using the stock rom
you can try to push the animation in /data/local/
EDIT: Try this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1078743&highlight=bootanimation

To be sure i tried to copy the bootanimation that you've given me to data/local and got the same result.
boot process stops a an "android" logo apperars.
- this is not the android logo like that one in the postet thread but the default one.
now i going to try system/lib (after reflashing everything)
regards
EDIT:
I cant put anything into the /system/lib folder - it says there is not enough space.

try to remove some bloatware or ringtone that you don't use and try again.

The system is near factory default.
Only Speedmod with root and root explorer are installed...
System has 120 K free.
I dont know what is deletable.
But i could see bootsamsung.qmg in system/media
any ideas to get an custom bootanimation work?
thanks!

I had the same problem. Probably speedmod doesn't fit perfectly with custom bootanimations. Or maybe the rom, but if you have stock and i have sensation rom, i think the problem is kernel.
If you are interested in bootanimation i suggest you to use talondev; with that kernel i never had any problem with bootanim.

[Boot Animation] Some cool Boot Animations - T2 Reboot and Jurassic Park Reboot

Hi All, I made some custom bootanimations for my Galaxy SII and decided to share them here, Terminator 2 Reboot and Jurassic Park Reboot sequences.
Instructions
Files at the end of this post, extract the bootanimation and poweron files first.
Copy the bootanimation.zip file to your phone in the System/Media directory.
If you have an existing bootanimation, either move it to a new folder or rename it to something like bootanimation.zip.back
Copy the PowerOn.wav file to your phone in the System/etc directory.
If you have an existing PowerOn.wav, either move it to a new folder or rename it to something like PowerOn.wav.back
Use a file explorer, i recommend ES File Explorer, you'll need to be rooted
Terminator II - Remember when the T1000 'takes' out the Terminator? This is the Reboot sequence which follows shortly, seamlessly followed by the Power Down sequence when he is lowered down in to the molten metal. Looks pretty good on the SII and looks the part. Try and it and you'll see
Link at bottom of post, extract the bootanimation and poweron files
Jurassic Park - Dennis takes Jurassic Park offline, and the only way to bring back on is to Reboot the entire system. My favourite of the two, the blue tint on this and the flick of the switch for the Reboot just makes it so relevant for the SII powering up. Not to mention the opening line, "Hold on to your butts!"
Link at bottom of post, extract the bootanimation and poweron files
Note: the sound for this one might be on a little low side for some, if you like it leave me some feedback and i'll up the volume.
Try them and let me know what you think, works fine on my current set up, Checkrom V6, Siyah 2.6.9
Make sure your kernel supports custom boot animations before trying, and you're using a Stock Based Rom (feel free to try it on CM7 etc and leave feedback if its working!)
Didn't seem to work on DHD running CM7
If you like them, show your appreciation, leave some feedback and HIT THE THANKS BUTTON. If the feedback is good i'll try and upload some more classics

[Q][Galaxy ACE II] How to change bootanimation in CyanogenMod?

Firstly - hello, my name is Patrick and I'm not-so-much-newly registered user, but this is my first post.
And now I go to my question - how to change bootanimation in CyanogenMod 11 by Maclaw? I tried to do it in such a way, as it's written in the guides, I used Root Explorer to copy bootanimation.zip from SDCard to /system/media, I uploaded everything as described, and after restarting the phone instead of animation I have modified the default android logo. Was this version of the system has some protection against the change? If so, is it possible to somehow disable it?

Can you upload what bootanimation.zip you put instead of original one

I wouldn't upload anything, because I have no longer any of these files on disk, but I can explain what I tried to do. Well - I tried to use that animation, but it had a built-in sound and all this before I did, I was playing with this for too long. So first I commented out using the # line in the file.txt responsible for downloading music and I switched the file again. Unfortunately - appeared on the default android animation. In the end I gave up and made ​​the next step - changed the size of all images - still I had the default bootanim, so I removed that file to recycle bin.
Even when I install this thing, I have an original bootanim of CyanogenMod - nothing is changed.

Just rename the current bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip1 for future reference and now paste the downloaded bootanimation.zip file that you copied earlier.
