* Added CWM flashable zips. (No need to read all I wrote if you want to install through cwm just download the ones with the CWM tag! =D The sound works on all roms now! Give it a shot and try it! The bootanimation runs in the same order with the GIF Files
First the Star Wars Title then Droid and R2D2 Pops up in the end
Download link on the bottom of the post under Attached Files
This is the first thing I share on XDA so forgive me if anything is wrong. The bootanim is so cool, just give it a shot =)
Steps on how to install:
Your device must be rooted
Transfer the bootanimation.zip to your phone
Copy it to system/media with a root explorer (Replace the old one)
It runs very smoothly and if you're a StarWars fan just like me, you'll like it a lot =D
The same animation is now available with PowerOn sound! So if you want the bootanimation with the sound, you have to flash the sounded file under attached files via CWM this time. (The normal (without sound) bootanimation.zip was supposed to be installed via a root explorer!)
There you go!
Thanks,
Berk.
Edit: I just played with the folders. Better now.
There's also another edition of the bootanimation which doesnt include the first two parts, only the gif with the R2D2 plays: http://db.tt/10IqtCii (Credits go to sgs2.5 for uploading and sharing this one =) )
Alternative mediafire download link for the whole animation: http://www.mediafire.com/?1micez0zgnmz2dc
2) Another way to install the bootanimation!
CWM Flashable zips added! :
Here we go,
I made some CWM5 packages for the Samsung Galaxy S2 (flashable with ROM
Manager) with the original R2D2 bootanimations in them. I can't test the one
with sound because my rom doesn't support it.
Flash at own risk. Make a full backup first, do whatever you must do not to loose whatever is on your phone! Don't complain to me if you mess up your phone! You rooted it
The animations are copied to /data/local/ which overrules the one you might have in
/system/data/ . A logo in /system/data/ (for instance a pink aokp pony
remains untouched.
The bootsound (where applicable) is copied to /system/etc/ and overwrites an
old one if it's there. If you wanna loose the sound. simply delete PowerOn.wav from /system/etc/.
The ´no sound´ versions don´t remove or overwrite PowerOn.wav if it´s already present.
Oh,, flash them 'certificate verification' OFF. Inserting a valid certificate scks blls, so I didn't.
R2D2 animation only, CWM (no sound): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36551347/XD...SGS2 CWM5 Bootanimation R2D2 no sound TVW.zip
R2D2 animation only, CWM (R2 sound): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36551347/XD...S2 CWM5 Bootanimation R2D2 with sound TVW.zip

Credits go to sgs2.5 for his great contribution!
Please click the Thanks button if you like it

Sound and the bootanim works for most of the devices now thanks to sgs2.5! Hydrogen-Ics and the AOKP ROMs are supported now as well. CWM Flashable link in the 1st post.
If you're on a rooted stocklike ICS rom (e.g. NEAT Rom) Just rename the system/etc/PowerOn.wav to PowerOn.ogg after flashing "Flash this one with CWM Bootanimation Complete with sound TVW.zip"! Feel free to ask away if you encounter any problems!
VOLUME FIX for BOOTANIMATION(sound) ;-)
According to me its just fine but if you want to crank up the volume a little during boot do the following;
edit the file "build.prop" in /system/ (set system to r/w before editing)
add or alter the following setting/line ;
persist.sys.boot_volume=100
save the file and reboot your phone

I think our ROM doesnt have a default boot animation sound. So unless you add one to system files there wont be a sound.

Great Job

Thanks for sharing. Nice job.
I already had this bootlogo without the "Star Wars" and "Android" logo's, which I like better. So I switched back to the plain R2.
If anyone wants it, shout out, i'll try to include a link (forum rules don't allow me to include links yet ;-(

berq219's animation is better looking than the original after all. Just had to get used to it.
I made it cwm flashable and added sound to it.
StarWars+Droid+R2D2 is here to stay !

Homemade Bootanimations Collection + How To Install/make + Enable/Disable

Hello my fellow S3 mates!
I’ve made this thread for one purpose: To have all, or almost all, information about bootanimations for stock Samsung ROMs in one thread.
I’m planning to make some bootanimations in the near future, both for ICS and JB. I haven’t made many lately though, because I’ve used almost all my spare time on the bootanimation for the Omega JB rom. I will make some animations now and then, and they will all be posted in this thread
This thread also contains my enable and disables cwm flashable zip-files, and a quick "How-To" guide for making them work.
And finally there are some things to notice before making your own bootanimations, which i of course also have written in this thread. So it’s easy for you to get started.
If you have any questions, need help, or just want to share your custom/homemade bootanimations, feel free to contact me. If it’s because you have a bootanimation to share, I prefer it sended to me as a pm, instead of posting in this thread, as I would like it as clean as possible. Then I can post it in the correct post in this thread, with credits of course. The bootanimation has to be made by you, otherwise it won’t be posted. If it’s made by another creator than you, and you just have modified it to work with S3, you have to get the permission from the original creator.
I’m thinking this would be ideal for a bootanimation collection thread, so it’s easy for other people to find animations, without the need to search through lots of different threads. But this can only be done with your help.
If you have found a bootanimation that you havent made and would like to share it, may i refer to the thread by pkoper here: [Bootanimations] The Bootanimation Repository
as my thread here is more technical based about the subject, and if you make your own, please contact me if you would like it posted in this thread.
If you have any suggestions to this thread, then feel free to pm me, thanks in advance.

As you probably noticed, there isn’t much here yet, but in time there will be (hopefully…)

How to install
1. If you haven’t already, you should check whether or not your phone is able to play custom bootanimations.
2. Download this bootanimation.zip, I’ve made only for testing, and place it in /data/local or /system/media folder. Or flash this with CWM: CWM_CustomBootanimation_Test.zip
3. Reboot, and if it’s still Samsung original booting sequence, it’s not enabled.
4. If you have a Samsung (touchwiz) based rom (stock), you can easily enable it with my cwm flashable zip, attached to this post.
5. Download both CWM_CustomBootanimation_Enable.zip and CWM_CustomBootanimation_Disable.zip, and place them at your internal sdcard. The reason I say you should get both, is because when trying out different animations, it can easily mess up the boot. If that happens it’s quite simple to just reboot into cwm, flash the disable zip, reboot, replace the animation with a working one, and reboot into cwm again and flash the enable zip. Should be easy for beginners.
**The test animation works for both ICS and JB**
Minimum requirements:
- CF-root with CWM
- Busybox
This has been reported working on:
[ICS]4.0.4 --> [JB]4.2.1 --> [JB]4.2.2 --> [JB]4.3
i9300, i9305, Sprint, Verizon and i747m devices.
Galaxy Note II - N7100
Galaxy Grand - i9082
And should in theory work on all other samsung android devices.
UPDATE:
made two new flashable zip files, that should work for 4.2.1.. it uses the AOSP "bootanimation"-file, that already has the "bootanimation.zip"-method implemented..
EDIT: it has been confirmed that this works for the 4.2.2 as well..​
UPDATE2:
if anyone is having issues having the Anbech-folder on internal sdcard, and cant remove it, then try flash the "CWM_RemoveAnbechFolder.zip"-file from the attachments..​
UPDATE3:
made 2 new flashzips:
Code:
CWM_CustomBootanimation_43_Enable.zip
CWM_CustomBootanimation_43_Disable.zip
they should work for any 4.3 sammy rom. make sure to get both files, as the disable-flashzip is handy if anything gets messed up ​
UPDATE4:
2 new flashzips:
Code:
CWM_CustomBootanimation_44_Enable.zip
CWM_CustomBootanimation_44_Disable.zip
let me know how they work out, as i cant test them myself ​
if just half of those who uses my work, would hit the thanks-button, i would be very happy

Making your own
This is what you need to know for making your own bootanimations.
The bootanimation.zip contains at least one folder, typically named "Part0", and a file named: "desc.txt".
There can be more folders, depends on how many parts there is. This is actually quite smart, as if you want the first part to be showed one time, the second part three times, and the last part untill the phone shows the UI. Then the bootanimation.zip would look something like this:
..
Part0
Part1
Part2
desc.txt
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and the desc.txt file like this:
720 1280 20
p 1 0 Part0
p 3 0 Part1
p 0 0 Part2
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The first digit - is how many times that part should be played (0 means infinite/forever)
The last digit - is the delay before the animation begins to play, in milliseconds
PartX - is the folder with the animation(Part0, Part1, Part2... PartX)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That was just an example to explain it. you can be as creative as you like, only your imagination sets the limit.
Inside each PartX-folder is there an animation, showed as images, one image per frame.
Supported images, from what ive tried myself, is JPEG, JPG and PNG. BMP might work as well, but this would make the zip file large in size.
The framerate (fps) is set in the desc.txt file, right to the resolution setting:
720 1280 20
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
An example of a desc.txt which is set to 20 fps.
I recommend not to set this to high, as the phone is quite loaded at the bootup process, so its a heavy process it to make a animation of images too. I usually set it somewhere between 20 and 25, that is by my own experience, the most smoothly rate.
When youve made your animation, you should keep in mind if it should be for ICS or JB, or both.
If its for ICS you should NOT make it looped, otherwise the phone will not show the UI after bootup. Looped animations can ONLY be used with JB.
The desc.txt file should be created/edited with notepad++ or something similar, as the regular notepad might mess with the structure.
To pack down the Part-folders and desc.txt file, its just by using winrar, 7zip or something similar. Just set it to save the files only, not compressing it.
I hope this will come someone handy, and if anyone has something that might be added, corrected, or even deleted, just let me know by a pm.

looking forward to them mate. omega rom bootanimation is cool so keep it up.

kind of self-explanatory, but since its from another site you are referring to, i just think its good enough with the link in your post

i made it with black background at first, but when its that dark the glass effect kinda losses some details.. but you are not the first who asks about that, so i might make a black version in the near future..
this thread will not list the exclusive omega animations, so it wont be posted here..
and to your others, thanks for the support

Well... Usually I am the one who is always mad when ppl don't read the starting post of a thread.
But since I use your great method when you shared it in the boot animation help thread I thought you just explain the right installation
My apologies

I think you could add in description of installation process one thing that if it doesn't work, you should check the file permissions of booatinmation file.

[MOD] boot animations for note ii - UPDATED

Use rom toolbox to install or rename to bootanimation.zip and place in system/media using root explorer
Note rom toolbox defaults to data/local
This directory will work too but if u cwm flash another boot ani later, it will not take, data/local has priority, so change it in rom toolbox or pull the bootanimation out of the cwm zip [zip within a zip]
You must also
Navigate to system/media
Delete or rename bootsamsungloop.qmg and bootsamsung.qmg
Navigate to system/bin
Delete or rename samsungani
Rename bootanimation to samsungani
Update, the previous segment dose not need to be done in most if not all roms for this device now.
Update, That also means that the following will not restore stock boot animation if that is the case.
Now if you want to revert back to stock
Rename samsungani to bootanimation
Take _bk off the ends of the three other files.
If you deleated the files see the links at the bottem of the post.
To add stock shutdown to a rom rename bootsamsung.qmg to shutdown.qmg and place in system/media/video
You may haft to make the folder called video
IMPORTANT NOTE: TO DO BOOT ANIMATION MODS NO CHANGE OF PERMISSIONS IS NECESARY
If I helped you find a boot animation u like, please hit that thanks button
Update, spinning mario not working.

If the imgs r jpeg you must convert them to ping then edit the desc, or resize every img if that did not work.
Imgs with transparancys MUST BE RESIZED
Change first two values in desc to 720 1280
Zip part0 and other parts n desc.txt to root of zip, using winrar and make sure its a .zip and your just storing, no compression
DO NOT ZIP THE PARENT DIRECTORY
THAT IS EXTREAMLY IMPORTANT

If its 720x1280 it will work regardless of phone make or model also since the imgs are pngs the desc file can be changed to your screen resolution n they will work. Tested on note ii, samsung precedent, and htc evo and inspire.

Thanks OP. Couldn't stand the T-Mobile boot! Boot up and down sounds are in system/media/audio/ui, PowerOff.ogg and PowerOn.ogg. Disabled mine for now but I'm sure we can replace them with whatever we want. +1 on down animation! BTW here's a link to a ton of bootanimations in our resolution....

Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 2

to set the boot ani you have to delete a few files and rename some files. I would just love a little app that "does this" with a click so I can then just use rom toolbox to install whatever ani I want

When I make the cwm installs you can flash one of those and it will do that work and then just use rom toolbox
Make sure ur rom toolbox is pointed to system/media it defaults to data/local. If u have already been using rom toolbox go and delete this file

Thanks for this info, OP.
Will this also replace the "static" Samsung graphic screen that displays before the animation?
If it doesn't, can you direct me to instructions that explains how to replace it with my own?
Thanks in advance.

I believe the splash screen is kernel here not for our phone but samsung....http://rootzwiki.com/topic/29242-ep4dfp1hfp5emododin-change-boot-splash-image

splash is kernel and it should be changeable. they got a fix for it on the S3 but I am pretty sure its not nearly the same CPU in the two (S3 Note II) so it likely won't work for us till someone makes a similar fix for us.

I will see if I can dig up anything

I am a little confused about the stepsi have to take to change the boot animation. I understand about deleting the files in system/media and system/bin but it's unclear to me what to do work the downloaded boot animation. Am I just renaming the file to"bootanimation"and putting it in system/media?
Second question is will this get rid of the boot sounds if the downloaded bootanimations are silent?

just install rom roolbox. once you delete and rename the files you can just tell rom toolbox to install whatever boot animation you want.

I tried doing all these things manually with root explorer. I did everything as per the OP's instructions. I downloaded the alien animation and renamed it to bootanimation.zip and put it in system/media and renamed it to samsungani and put it in system/bin. When my phone boots I still have the annoying sprint audio boot but my animation is a blacked or screen.

[Q] Need help with a custom boot animation.

Hi folks,
I need help in regards to a custom boot animation someone made for me.

Here is the code for the desc.txt:
600 600 25
p 0 0 part0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Basically, it runs through the animation once (without any edit) and then goes to a black screen until I hear the AT&T boot sound and then the UI shows up (Still have root and all).
I tried editing the desc.txt file for it to repeat on and on, but all I get in return is a black screen. Can anyone help?
I am running the US version the S3 with 4.3, rooted. TouchWiz (I know...) ROM with custom launcher.
I am assuming I may have to flash a custom ROM in order to get rid of the AT&T animation boot (in order to see my custom image all the way until the UI loads).
Can anyone please direct me in the correct direction? I would greatly appreciate that.
Thank you!

When you edit the desc.txt it needs to be added back into the archive without compression otherwise it won't work. Try using WinRAR to add the edited file back in to the archive. In the options for zips there will be an option to add files without compression.

I'll give that a shot. Would that fix the black screen? Because I do see part of the animation until the moment the AT&T loading GIF appears
EDIT: I think it has something to do with the .zip file.
I have the original file here:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/9go9lvm9jj50z2a/bootanimation.zip
I extracted everything and edited the "desc.txt" file for it to repeat indefinitely, then I used WinZip to archive it back up (no compression) but still no avail.

I'll check it out tomorrow and see if i can get it working. Have you been able to get other boot animations to function properly?

Yup! I used an app called "Boot Box" or "Boot Animations" (one of those two, the proper escapes me at the moment).
I asked a friend for his advice, and he suggested that I try coping the part0 folder into part1, and have part1 loop rather part0. Taking a look at other boot animations, that seems to be the right way.
Let me know if you come across any other findings!
EDIT: Tried that, didn't seem to work...perhaps I'm doing something wrong. I'm not compressing the .zip however, so it must be something else...
EDIT 2: So I renamed the images in the part1 folder leaving off from where the part0 left off (part0 ended at img0062, so I started the images in part1 as img0063 and so on). Now I only see the part0 sequence and part1 is a black screen.
EDIT 3: This is the link of my .zip file: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7sihrhzehlyhqxc/_eQ_hxo7K2/bootanimation.zip

Samsung stock roms generally animations with a proprietary animation package that uses *.qmg files. It sounds like your rom still has some of the qmg files??
The text from thedesc.txt file in bootanimation.zip file, which has two parts, 48 images each, in CM10.2.1 is
720 720 48
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
The second part, 'part1' is the part that loops and its 48 images are in a part1 subfolder.
The bootanimation.zip that you posted has 63 images. Why does the description text only have a 20 after the 600 600 if you have 63, not twenty images? I think this is a better bet for desc.txt content:
600 600 63
p 0 part0
For 4.3, you could use your bootanimation.zip file with CM 10.2.1, which is the stable Cyanogenmod rom for Jelly Bean 4.3. If you have an AT&T Galaxy S3, then you can find the rom as device d2att at
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=d2att&type=stable
flash it with TWRP or CWM recovery.

The third part is actually the frames per second. It is usually recommended to have it around 15-25 FPS. I could give it a shot though...
I already flashed a CWM .zip that enables animations like these, and I have also successfully installed animations via Boot Animations (animations repeats successfully until UI shows up). So I feel like this animation specifically is the problem. I'm just not sure...

Thanks, I was confused about syntax for desc.txt
The xda tutorial mentions some rules for png images. Specifically, no interlacing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560836
Could that or some property of the png be the issue? Also, zip compression is off, just STORE when making the zip.

Hmm. I'll take a look into that. It may be the png, but the thing is, it goes through one part of the animation then stops.
Was there something actually wrong with my .zip, or were you just mentioning that? I'm pretty sure I hit "no compression" on WinZip...

Nothing wrong with your zip afaik. 7zip shows no compression.

I *think* I'm using the stock ROM - as dumb as this sounds, I don't completely remember.
I do remember using ODIN to flash CWM and a couple of .zips to enable the custom bootscreen. Other than that, no other flashed mods apart from the ones installed via XPOSED.
I can use other custom boot animations, and they work fine. It just seems mine is a tad bit glitched. Does it work on your phone?

I just booted with your bootanimation.zip on my sgh-i747 that is running cm10.2.1 stable, jb 4.3. I made sure perms set to 644 before booting.
It runs without any problem, after the sgs3 cm splash screens and loops repeatedly until boot completed and my lockscreen appears.
It is something in your rom; most likely designed to run qmg.
perhaps the settings, or the kernel, or syscntrl, or buildprops could me modded. I have no idea.
Your bootanimation.zip is fine.
Probably best to flash a complete AOSP or TW rom that supports custom bootanimations.

How can I create a bootanimation from a gif?

First you go to www.online-convert.com and convert your .gif to .jpg images (they're going to be inside a .rar file, just extract it). Now that you've got your images follow these instructions http://www.droidbeans.com/how-to-create-your-own-boot-animation-rooted-devices/ .
First few tries are gonna be complete fails, but when you get the hang of it you will see how easy it actually is to make bootanims xD

Ok, but keep in mind that it won't be a moving animated picture as it's just a normal .jpg
In other words, it will just sit there on your screen until your phone boots up. It won't move or something like that [emoji14]

No problem. DMod should work fine on any firmware, because it overwtites the existing system with the modded one.
My S3 Mini is on this ROM and I love it
Btw, DMod v7 isn't released afaik, v6 is the latest and it's also gr8. Try both for a few days and choose which one you want.

It's ready

Sadly, no. I was just looking through my old topics and saw you posted
Seach around in Google and you'll probably find another tutorial for it. I was very busy with finishing my last year in high school lately and now have university exams so can't be bothered by pretty much anything :\ sorry, hope you understand. Cheers
