[Q] HTC quietly brilliant boot splash?

I did some searching on the forums. I didn't find anything, but I may have overlooked it as I'm not sure of the exact name of the splash. Does anyone happen to have it on hand? It happens to be the splash that comes on the current Sprint Lovers ROM. Its a simple "HTC quietly brilliant" animation, and I think also quite attractive.
Pointing me in the right direction is greatly appreciated.
Thanks ahead of time.

I'll link it when I get home

i want this as well. it's far better than the Sprint 4G boot splash.

is this the one your looking for, it has the HTC with the android peeking out then goes to just plain HTC with quietly brilliant under it ... check the png's inside ... this is the boot animation though not the splash ... maybe not what you are looking for ...

how about this one?

You need to replace the boot animation in system/media using a program like root explorer or the root option in es file explorer. You may have to search in order to find the existing file because there are a couple of other places it could be in the system.

Mine is in /system/customize/resource ... I think in CM it might be in /system/media ... correct instructions though, just use root explorere to copy and paste it. For the other question about the mp3 with the sound SPC_animation_final.mp3 is in the same folder, you can make any 20 second mp3 then remane it to the above and put that in with root explorer and poof you have sound, sorry I dont have the one that came with this. just replacing the bootanimation will leave you with the stock sprint sound. You can also delete the spc_animation. mp3 and get the animation without sound.

Thank you sword zero

I would also enjoy the mp3 that was with this also.
Anyone have?

Help with boot animation file

I changed all the colors in the 3D bootanimation that came out. When I run it. It only stays black I changes sizes of the images and everything. Also replaced the files in the stock bootanimation file. Also changed every image name but still nothing.
Can someone that knows how to make boot animations look at it and let me now what I did wrong ? I will thank you.....

It sounds like you just didnt zip it up correctly. The Bootanimation file has to be zipped with the "STORE" option.... as in NO compression.
try zipping it with the "store" option and copy/flash it over.

i will try that but i even just copied the images into the stock boot animation and didn't work also tried just couple images over the stock once and the when i ran it the stock once worked just not mine not sure if the images have to be in some kinda formate

Zipped it using STORE and the first folder works now thanks getting close just have to see whats going on in folder 2 thank for your help

i have it working for you. flashable zip.
looks cool even without 3d

thanks man you rock what did i do wrong

That's what i can't get working

Sorry the one in the 3d-system-media folder worked look sweet thanks

[Q] Change boot animation on roalex ICS for Bravo

Hi all,
I looked and tried for a while now, but I'm not able to change my boot animation on the COS ICS by roalex. A bootanimation.zip stored in system/media and/or in data/local doesn't work for me. I'm shure it changed in general in ICS. Can anybody help me please to find a way to change my boot animation?
Some ICS threads recommend to store in system/customize/resource, but I don't have a customize file.
For all changes I use root explorer.
Thanks and have a nice day!

What do you mean with "does not work"? Is any bootanimation shown or do you just get a black screen? Did you make your named it correctly and really replaced the old bootanimation?

Thanks for your answer
The bootscreen in general works. In settings I can enable and disable boot animation. When I enable boot, then the old school android boot animation is showed. I think this is maybe a fallback mode, when there is no bootanimation.zip. But I don't know.
When I look into /system/media and /data/local after a fresh installation, then there is no bootanimation.zip. Maybe the builder of this ROM has diasabled custom boot images to speed up the device (it is indeed very fast).
And because he has disabled boot animation per default, I'm not able to set up my own.
It's not the first time I created my own animation, so I'm shure it works at least in gingerbread.
My new question should be now, how to enable bootanimation in this special case, when it is disabled by default?
I suggest, that this is no big deal, when this doesn't work on this rom. I can live without a nice boot animation. It's more for my general comprehension, how android is working.

I guess you mean folder, not file, don't you?

Yes, indeed. Sorry.

Tried to create folderpath (/customize/resource) yourself and then move the bootnanimation.zip there?
BEFORE TRYING, MAKE A NANDROID-BACKUP!!!

Ok it didn't work for me. I'm a backup profi now, but nothing seems to work.
It's ok for me, I'll close this thread now.
Gracias!

It works flawless on my HTC Desire with this ROM.

I know the issue......install disk usage and tell me size of your system partition free space, then tell the size of bootanimation.....it always happens when space not enough.....Android tries to write your file, and if no space, it just shows.that file is written.....please check free space and tell.....

[BOOTANIMATION] CyanogenMod 9 Bootanimation, in a neat and tidy flashable zip! :D

Hey!
You may have seen my ICS Pattern lock post, I'm back again with something more conservative.
I've simply gone and got the CyanogenMod 9 boot animation and posted it here for you guys to use Attachment at bottom of post ->
Therefore this obviously isn't my work, just giving people an easy way to install it.
|-----------------------------------------------------|
| /\/\/\/\/\/--INSTRUCTIONS--\/\/\/\/\/\/\ |
|-----------------------------------------------------|
OK, I'm assuming everyone knows how this works, but JIC
I don't know if this will work in RA, I used CWM.
1. Reboot into recovery (power down, hold "home" and "end")
2. Choose "install zip from sd card"
3. Select the zip, confirm
4. Watch the CM9-iness
Alternatively you can just extract the bootanimation.zip file, stick it in /system/media and set the correct permissions, etc., but what's the point 'cause I've given you this :silly:
Well, that's all folks, hope you like it

when it comes to bootanimations you need to look for the proper resolution for eg in case of dream bootanimations of 320x480 res will be perfect for it and yes the ace can use this bootanimation as long as the res is the same

just saying, it doesn't actually flash from recovery, wrong digest error.
gonna copy it into /system/media manually then i guess

Hi there
I love this CM9 boot animation but it doesn't work on a 1080p screen- Galaxy s4 running CM13

Changing the Verizon Boot Animation Sequence?

With S-OFF, I imagine this is possible. Has anyone done so?

Yeah, you can do this. I use the Google Edition HTC One boot animation. Just Google it and you can find the file. Simply rename it bootanimation.zip and place it in /system/media. Make sure you replace the bootanimation.zip currently in there to something else such as bootanimation.bak. You might have to change permissions to rw-r-r as well.

my /system/media doesn't have an existing bootanimation.zip. Nevertheless I placed that file in that location, set permissions and the stock Verizon animation still showed. Now I'm stumped. Pulled the file from HERE, trying both a manual addition as well as flashing the flashable zip provided.

Are you running a Sense rom? If so, the boot animations are located in System-Customize-Resource. There are two that you need to replace, one for booting up, vzw_bootup.zip, and one for shutting down, hTC_downamination.zip.

Hmm... I did this and for some reason the boot animation wasn't replaced but the down animation works fine. Side note, does the boot sound in that folder play for anyone else?
HTC One s-off

On the stock HTC ROM, to change the boot animation, you have to change two files in 'system/customize/resource/' : "htc_bootup_one.zip" and "vzw_bootup.zip" (capitalization matters). They both have to be replaced with fully functional boot animations. When I changed mine, it wouldn't work if I just changed one or the other, I had to change both.
On the stock HTC ROM, to change your down animation, you have to replace "hTC_downanimation.zip" (capitalization matters) in '/system/customize/resource/' with a functioning down animation.
On custom ROMS, you have to look to find where it's at. Sometimes it's in 'system/media' named "bootanimation.zip", sometimes it's not. Remember, it has to be a functioning replacement, otherwise it will show the stock ANDROID boot animation.

Actually, you don't have to replace the htc_bootup_one.zip. You can rename it to .bak and replace or do the same to the vzw_bootup.zip and it will work. I actually removed my htc_bootup_one.zip and replaced the vzw one and everything works fine. Probably helps that the boot up animation I use was made for the One variants that don't have anything to do with Verizon

That's very odd. Now that I try it without the "htc_bootup_one.zip", it works, but it didn't when I originally replaced it. Very, very odd.

I grabbed a flashable boot animation (including audio) from the HTC One section and was finally able to get the animation to work after messing with the .xml file. Tried to throw the audio in with it and couldn't get it to work...I'm on Bonestock and noticed there wasn't any audio with the regular boot animation...could it be the Rom? Volume is up btw.
To get a better idea of what I did I'll include the tread. I wasn't able to flash, so I had to manually replace/rename the files in my system/customize/resource folder and then change the name for the boot animation in the .xml file. I tried to follow the steps to get the audio file included as well, but it just reverted to a basic android boot animation when I attempted that.

If I recall correctly, there is an option in the XML file that tells it not to play audio when it's not the first time you set up the phone, meaning it only plays on initial setup. You need to change that setting to play every time. I don't want audio on my boot animations, so I leave it alone.

Add this code to the XML file.
Code:
audio="/system/customize/resource/MP3_file_name_here.mp3"
This is assuming the sound you want is located in the 'resource' folder. If not, give the correct path and filename. Hope this works for you.

I had tried that like it said in the OP, but for some reason when I added that in there it changed the boot animation completely and still with no audio. Ah well, it's probably more convenient with out it.

Also here is where the Boot Animations lie:
