That's pretty cool! I'm going to try that on someone next time...hahahahaha

Lol yea, those ate tight. I remember using them a while back.
None answer my question, do they need a specific name (the animated files) and do I need two folders or is 1 fine?

Just download any boot animation and look at the format.
You basically just need to arrange your frames (.PNG's) in order in a folder (name images "XXXXX_00000, XXXXX_00001, XXXXX_00002, XXXXX_00003.....etc.). If you have more than 80 or so frames, then use two folders, but try to split the frames between the two folders. Name the first folder "android" and the second folder "loop". Now, you'll need a .txt file that has contains the following code:
Code:
480 480 10
p 1 0 android
p 0 0 loop
Name this file "desc". Now, zip it all up with 7-Zip, or WinZip (no compression) and there you go.

So I updated my pngs to Stock_HTC_Black_0000 (different #'s)
Did the desc with proper info, right zip format, 52 pngs in one folder (android)
Got a blank black screen.

I even tried having my pngs renamed to what the stock boot has them. With 7zip I replaced the android folder with the new one.

Are all of your frames 480 X 800, and are they all the same size? Also, try using a .txt file from another bootanimation. Might be a problem with the .txt file you're using.

Also, I had problems with winzip. Try using 7-zip...and check to make sure there aren't any other files in your .png folders other than your .pngs

Did all of the above. I replaced the pngs in the stock boot animation folder with the new ones.

Maybe try making your own .PNG folders, then select your images and move them there. Only thing you should borrow from another bootanimation is the desc.txt file. Make sure you zip it yourself too....no compression.

If you still have trouble...upload what you got and PM me the link. I'll try messing with it in the morning.

I did make my own android folder but I deleted the original android folder and replaced it with the new android folder I made. I didn't make a whole new zip. I'll try that tomorrow. I didn't think modding a zip (using 7zip to change contents) would make a big difference since I do it with apks to change things all the time.
If I post a link to what I have, would you mind packing something up for me?

For those of you who want to get custom boot animations, you can change them easily using Zedomax Epic Touch Kernel (v3 or later) and copying over the bootanimation.zip file over to system directory /system/media.
You need to have Zedomax Epic Touch Kernel installed or any other kernel that supports it. See this thread
If you know how to use ADB, you can simply enable your Android filesystem as read/write and copy the file over OR if you are not so inclined or simply want a faster/easier way, you can buy the Root Explorer off the market.
First find bootanimation.zip with 800x480 resolution, you should be able to find a bunch by googling. Download the bootanimation.zip file and copy over to your Epic 4G Touch's internal storage disk drive.
Using Root explorer, find the file bootanimation.zip file you just copied over and select "Copy".
Then browse to the /system/media directory, enable r/w (hit button at top right), then paste.
Reboot your phone and enjoy your new boot animation.
This will only change the boot animation after the Samsung boot screen.

Hey Zedo, or anyone for that matter, how would you go about making the animation faster? It seems that the one Im using can never really go from start to finish, it always boots into the OS right towards the end, and also, the sound doesn't really sync up w/ the video so Im hoping by increase the speed at which it plays will correct that issue as well...

The part after the resolution in the desc.txt file changes the speed. I am playing with it now to get the welding android in red to finish before booting. It boots at the first antenna to OS so I miss the end as well. I will share it when I get it right. Not messing with sound just yet.

The sound you won't have to mess w/ cuz once the playback is correct the sound will sync up with it all well ...
540 960 25
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
Those are the current values but which one controls the speed of the playback, the current one holding "25"? TIA!

Yes the 25 controls the playback rate from what I remember when making bootanimations for my samsung moment. I haven't gotten it right and when testing i get a black screen for the boot animation making changes. Not sure why. Something I am not remembering. Looking for my tutorial thread right now on SDX-developers who taught me. If anyone can help it would be appreciated.
Here are the instructions I found:
1.) Using a converter, change your selected video into a series of .png's or .jpg's. You can also create your own images as long as they are of those file types.
2.) Rename all images with the frame#### number scheme in order (frame0001, frame0002, frame0003 etc.)
3.) Resize images to 480x800 if not already there.
4.) Separate images into folders. These can be named anything as long as they correspond with the desc.txt. I use part0, part1, part2, part3 etc. If the images are png's they must be under 3mb, and jpg's very but its between 1-3mb
5.) Using notepad++ or other text editor than can save correctly, write the desc.txt example below
Code: [Select]
480 800 10
p 1 40 part0
p 1 0 part1
p 0 0 part2
A. 480 800 is screen size so you can change a 48x80 image to 480x800 with this, but quality will suffer
B. 10 is the frames per second
*only list height/width/fps once otherwise a flashing white screen will result
C. part0, part1, and part2 is the folder name where the images are coming from
D. p means play and is followed by what is defining how the images are being displayed
E. the first number is for number of repetitions if 1 then play folder once, if 0 then play infinitely.
^(using 0 causes fps to jump to 60 so you have quick loops, so edit the desc.txt to play the folder again)
F. the second number stands for fps pause, if 0 then no pause, however if 20 then pause for 20 frames before continuing.
6.) Download the bootanimation.zip (download at end of page) and extract using 7-zip.
7.) Select all of your folders containing the images and the desc.txt, then using 7-zip compress to an archive named bootanimation.zip Compression rate must be set to store!
8.) Open up the bootanimation folder you obtained after extracting in step 6, and place the new bootanimation.zip in /system/media. This must be the only file in the folder.
Based on this I think we should increase 25 to a higher number and go from there.

That is pretty odd that increasing the value turns the screen black...thanks a ton for the tutorial, I honestly have yet to dive into creating my own, but now at least I have something I can refer back to!

I initially tried going lower to 20. Maybe that did it. At work now so I have to wait.

i tried 40, and black screed. I also noticed the file size went from 9mb - 3mb
so, has to be with how it was recompiled.
I will try the red 35 now, and post back.

Not if I beat you to it ...EDITED..Ok, it played back fine but its still too slow/late, the audio begins to play before the video, and its still ending while cutting out the antenna's, thanks for your effort though!

35 was as perfect as I can tell without sound for the speed of the video.
Now with the sound. there are 2.ogg files in this boot animation.
The only way I can get sound to change is go to System/etc and change the PowerOn.wav file.
Question now is how can we get 2 different .ogg files to parsed into 1 .wav file?
attached are the ogg files....

[Bootanimation] S3 BIOS Boot in HD

I had a variant of this on my old Evo 4G OG, and the nerd in me really loved it. I couldn't find a version for the S3 yet, so I upconverted the old images to 720x1200 and slagged the text and rewrote them to match the S3.

Do i just rename it to bootanimation.zip and put it in /system/media?
Or do I put it somewhere else?
I put it in /data/local after renaming it to bootanimation.zip and it works great. Very nostalgic.

/data/local/bootanimation.zip is preferable, since you don't have to remount /system rw.
And there's still hundreds of millions of PCs with this traditional BIOS, so there's nothing to be nostalgic about yet.

two ideas:
1) you're running touchwiz
2) you didn't name it right

It never loads part 1. After part 0 finishes it shows black screen until phone finishes booting.

I have no idea why it won't play the second part. I've tried renaming it, changing settings in the desc.txt file, merging both parts together to form one large part0. Either it fails to load completely, or stops at the end of part0. Maybe there's something wrong with the .png files from part1? I redid them in the same batch as part0 though, in GIMP, so I don't know why they won't work.
Edit: Something was wrong with the second batch of files. I reopened them and rexported them in GIMP and now it works. I think maybe 7-zip was compressing them? I'm not sure, but the .zip is larger now.

Yeah, if you want to loop you have to modify it.
FWIW, I pngcrushed all the images in the .zip so it loads faster, and that reduced it to 8.4M from 12M. I also changed the FPS to 24 (phones should be 24; tablets 30) and made the last part loop.
Code:
720 1200 24
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
I might keep this one for a while.

Awesome mod, looks a million times better than the default cm10 animation. Thanks.

Do you think you can post a zip with the modifications you have.

Thanks to TheScaryOne for doing the hard work of actually modifying the initial version with our S3-specific info! All I did was tweak it & repackage it.
UPDATE (8/22): version 3
- fixed resolution by changing canvas size from 720x1200 to a proper 720x1280 HD, and centering vertically. ImageMagick snippet: for i in *png; do mogrify -extent 720x1280 -gravity center -background black $i; done
- fixed 1pixel offset in bios screen text
- split into more parts to allow for better timing & pauses
- tweaked pauses between all transitions, and added a 1second pause after the initial energystar bios screen
- added very quick fadeout from bios & quick fadein to android with extra pause
- added ClockWorkMod flashable zip version
UPDATE (8/20): version 2
- pngcrushed images to reduce file sizes
- changed fps to 24 from 30 to be more phone-friendly
- removed the redundant ascii-android in the first part (since he's in the next part that loops), so now the zip is even smaller (6.6MB)
- added a 2 second pause after the bios screen finishes so you can actually see it before it switches to the andy loop
- added a 1 second pause between each andy loop so it's less spazzy
Downloads:
Bootanimation.zip manual install: S3Biosbootanimation_v3.zip
To install this, simply copy it to /data/local/bootanimation.zip using adb or your favorite root explorer-ish app.
ClockWorkMod recovery / TWRP flashable version: CWM-S3Biosbootanimation_v3.zip
This CWM zip simply installs the bootanimation to /data/local/bootanimation.zip, which overrides your ROMs bootanimation, but doesn't OVERWRITE /system/media/bootanimation.zip. Just delete /data/local/bootanimation.zip if you want to go back to the ROM's animation.
When flashing it you'll see proper credit given, as below:

OP.... I hope you don't mind that I added to this post, I did not want to have multiple threads for bootanimations. If is a problem let me know and I will take it down.

The animation is cool but too small. We need to resize the images to fit the s3. If your not already working on this I can tonight. Cheers! :beer:

Here is another one to add the list.
It is the R2D2 boot with the sound file.
The Bootanimation.zip goes into the system/media folder
The audio goes into system/media/audio/ui

Hey dude I noticed you had changed the size in the desc.txt file and resized images to 400x800 (S2 resolution).
I went ahead and resized the boot animation to 720x1280(Galaxy S3).
I thought we would give the user the option to select the resolution they wanted.
Im sure there are many other Star Wars Fans!
Here's a link dude.

Did my version not work correctly for you?
Yeah all I did to make that previously posted bootani fit our phones is change the desc.txt file. The images themselves don't have to be 720x1280 because the desc.txt controls the size that they are displayed. Does that make sense?
I have to admit, I started to download your version but noticed that it is 43 megabytes. This is quite big for a bootanimation. The smaller the better. I personally use .jpeg format instead of .png for most of my personal bootanis because .jpeg generally creates a smaller image file size.
I have to ask how you went about to re-sizing the images?

Are you creating these on a Mac or Windows? I created mine on a Mac and the white flicker is caused from the hidden .ds_store file that Mac creates in every file folder.

Definitely getting the white flashing. Looks decent other than that.

I did it with root explorer. Just placed the file in data/local and put the permission to rw--r--r and rebooted. Make sure you mount system as r/w, and it's as simple as that.

Use root explorer or root browser and navigate to data/ local. Long press "bootanimation.zip" and delete it. Reboot and your old boring boot animation should return

Flashed the count down using cmw, im on wicked rom V5 with no luck.

Will this work on FrostyJB 4.1.1 v1?

Moto G/X Mp4 Bootanimations Ported Nexus 7 2013

These are not flashable zips!
Use at your own risk, and make a backup before installing. These have all been tested and installed from the filehost.
Instructions, and better quality youtube videos are at the bottom of this post. If you are using your Nexus 7 right now you can see exactly what the boot animation will look like if you use the YouTube app at full screen. The quality will depend on your connection quality with the YouTube servers but the size will be identical.

This actually looks pretty good on the Nexus 7. The width on this gif is accurate to the size of the animation but you have to use your imagination for how the height will look.
Download Custom Google​
If you are unsure on the installation procedure hit the button below, for those who have installed a bootanimation.zip in either the /system/media or /data/local folder before, this is no different.
Read this first please.
And just to add to that, I prefer putting my bootanimation.zip in the /data/local/ folder on my Nexus 7. If there is a bootanimation.zip there and in the /system/media/ location, it will play the one in /data/local/ first. There is always a fallback bootanimation.zip in /system/media/.
Also using your file manager make sure the permissions for bootanimation.zip are rw-r--r--
It works with several other combinations also, but if you have problems, check it first.

I can, it will be about 12 hours or so though. If you have windows, not xp, I made a batch script that will do it for you. Here's the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2651044
Does your note use qmg or zip files? My script will not work with qmg style boot animations, I think they're used in touchwiz Roms.

My note use zip file.

- Just extract the rar file to a new folder.
- Place the stock mp4 boot animation file (attached at the bottom of this post) in the 'Zips' folder
- Run the RUNba2mp4v186b batch file
- Hit 2 ------- Convert Zips In "Zips"
- Hit 1 ------- MP4 Stock_April_Fools.zip
- Hit 4 ------- Change The Resolution
- Enter 800 for your width
- Enter 1280 for your height
- Hit 1 ------- Resize But Keep The Original Aspect
- Hit 1 ------- Export To A Jpg Bootanimation.zip
Notes:
The converted bootanimation; 24_800X1280_q7_Stock_April_Fools.zip; will be in the folder "Made_Zips"
If the quality isn't acceptable to you, you can up the jpg quality setting from 7 to 6 or whatever. I wouldn't go all the way to 1 though because the file size gets pretty big, the jpg is basically lossless at level 3, and your phone might not handle it and boot loop. So as always, make a backup before installing.
If your resolution isn't 800x1280 then enter the resolution you want to convert to. If the aspect ratio for the resolution you need is different from the source, in this bootanimation the source is 720x1280, you will be prompted to "resize but keep the original aspect" or "stretch or shrink images..." I would choose "resize but keep the original aspect" because the circle in these bootanimations is front and center, and looks awkward as a slight oval. The downside to this option is that there is some slight cropping. Not bad though.​

I used this on my Moto X since the ROM I'm using doesn't work with mp4 boot animation. The problem is that after I converted the April Fools boot animation it just continuously loops part 2 I assume, I let it boot up for about 3 minutes before I had to fastboot system.img over again. I tried changing the p 0 1 to p 0 0 and c 0 0 and it just skipped the boot animation altogether. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is this what is in you desc.txt file?
Code:
720 1280 24
p 1 0 part0
p 0 1 part1
If so, did you use the default jpg quality of 7, and end up with an overall zip size of 9,029,619 bytes? (8.61 MB, or 8,818 KB)

Yes the Only thing I had done at first was covert it. After it didn't boot to the ROM is when I was just trying play around trying to get it to work.

The only thing that I can think of right now, is that maybe the numbering got messed up for the jpg files? Don't really see how that could happen though.
Or possibly the Moto X can't handle the jpg level of 7? That really doesn't seem probable either.
Could you try jpg quality of 8 and see what happens?

Okay so I used the April fools.zip that you uploaded and changed the quality to 8 and I still get the same thing. The Moto M with the spotlight just seems to continuously loop. BTW I appreciate the help. Thank you.

Not sure what the issue is, but I'd like to help in solving it. Which ROM do you use? And can you upload either the q7 or q8 zip that doesn't play right?

I'm using a GPE ROM based of Moto G. It has to be flashed through fastboot so I'm not sure how to open it like you would a .zip. If need be I'll zip up my system folder and upload.

Edit: It is very strange I was considering removing some of the images from part 1, but I don't see how that would help. The boot animation isn't five minutes long is it? It should just stop once everything loads. Like on first boot it takes a while to load up so it just loops part 1?

Sorry for the delay, but I can't find anything wrong with the zips. The animation isn't really long. Here are a couple things to try if you are still interested in making it work.
-Uninstall Motorola Boot Services, if you installed it. Wipe cache and dalvik.
-Switch the names of the folders. Part0 will be Part1 and vice versa.
-Subtract 1 from your vertical resolution in your desc.txt (might bootloop)
-Try running another 2 part full resolution bootanimation.zip
Switching the folders obviously isn't going to fix it, but the result might tell a tale. Same with the last option.

Thanks for trying, you're help was appreciated. I went back to stock plus I didn't even know the boot animation was updated again.
