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.

Cant wait to flash!
I am trying to flash the Droid Charge Boot Animation now~

I've sooo been waiting for this!!!!!!
However, I've tried several and even doctored up a quick simple one and still have yet to get anything other than a black 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.

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:

This tutorial is meant for users that want to create from scratch or edit bootanimation.zip files to replace the current ones on their systems.
So let's get to work. ​
Requirements: a PC, WinRAR / 7-zip, Notepad++ for Windows users, a bunch of frames(images).
Folder structure and general guidelines
The structure of a bootanimation.zip file is: folders (named "part0", "part1", "part2" etc) and a desc.txt file (in charge of animation properties).
So, you can either put all your frames in a single folder and name it "part0" (yes, the name is mandatory), or create more folders if you plan to create a more complex animation such as one that will show a section of your animation multiple times or will make a pause between sections/parts. If you just want to animate one single section, with no special requirements, you can just create a single folder containing all your images.
For more in-depth information on how do the bootanimations work on Android, please, visit this page.
Creating the animation parts/ folders
So, we'll create a folder called part0 and a file called desc.txt. If you want to keep your stuff organized, you can throw them both in another folder and name it whatever you want. You're not going to use that anyway. It's just to keep your stuff organized.
We'll now fill in the folder with slides from the first section of the animation. For this case, we want the animation to run the first section (part0) only once, then move to the second one (part1) and keep that in a continuous loop until Android starts.
The image format, for as far as I know, can be any common format, but I only worked with .png so I would recommend using this format.
The image titles can also be anything you want BUT remember to put the slides in an organized fashion, starting with 0.
For example: if you want to name your images "img000.png", "img001.png", "img002.png" etc, that's fine, but start the counting with 0 and name them all in a similar way, meaning no "ImG000.png", "image001,png", "imag002.png" and so on so forth. Stick to a single way of naming them.
I would personally recommend the easiest way: "000.png", "001.png", "002.png" etc.
Ok, now we'll create a second folder at the same location, and we'll call this one part1. In this folder we'll put the rest of the slides we want it to animate until Android starts.
Now that we have all the images in place, let's move to the next step.
Creating the animation's "control panel"
The "desc.txt" is one of the most important parts of the bootanimation.zip file. It controls basically everything related to that animation.
So make sure to use Notepad++ (if you're using Windows) for editing that file and set it up for UNIX systems (this is important!).
If you're using Linux, you can just edit it with no worries using the built-in gEdit editor.
Now let's open it up in Notepad++/ gEdit and set it up to animate our images the way we want.
But first, let's understand a little bit what exactly can be set up in the desc.txt file.
Code:
[animation width; in px] [animation height; in px] [fps]
480 102 24
[part descriptor*] [nr of loops; 0 = infinite loop] [pause - in seconds] [destination folder]
p 1 0 part0
[part descriptor**] [nr of loops; 0 = infinite loop] [pause - in seconds] [destination folder]
c 0 0 part1
*The "p" descriptor tells the system to stop playing the animation if the boot-up process has finished.
**The "c" descriptor tells the system to continue playing the animation until the boot-up process has finished. This method helps on porting the same animation across multiple platforms because the boot-up time differs from one device to another.
So, in English, what this tells to the system is that it wants it to play an animation having width=480px and height=102px at a rate of 24 fps, in two parts:
1st part needs to be played once, with no pause before the next part or loop (if it's set to continue in an endless loop).
2nd part needs to be played in an endless loop, with no pause between loops, until Android starts.
The width and height of the animation have to be the ones of the images you're going to use.
For example: If you've got 480x102px images, the desc.txt file should also contain 480(width) 102(height) in it.
Note: If you've got images bigger than your physical screen resolution, it will play only the visible part.
So, your finished content of the desc.txt file, should look somewhat similar to this:
Code:
480 102 24
p 1 0 part0
c 0 0 part1
Now that we've got everything set up and ready to use we can proceed to the last step.
Creating the zip file
Now, if you had enough patience to read this whole tutorial, I will ask you to have some more because this part is really important.
When creating the bootanimation.zip file, make sure you set the compression level/method to Store. Both WinRAR and 7-zip support this. This is very important! Without it, your animation won't play and you'll most likely see a black screen during boot time.
You need to select the folders (part0, part1 etc) and the desc.txt file inside your working folder and create a zip archive of that. DO NOT ARCHIVE THE WHOLE WORKING FOLDER!
Ok, now that we've got the animation content zipped in a single bootanimation.zip file, all we need to do is to copy-paste it into /system/media folder on our phone and replace the current bootanimation.zip file from there.
After that, we need to set permissions 644 for the zip file (as described below) and reboot the phone.
That's all folks. Now you know how to create/edit a bootanimation.zip.
Examples
Without Google logo
Link 1: resolution 480x102px
Link 2: resolution 800x170px
Link 3: resolution 1080x230px
With Google logo (original version)
Link 1: resolution 480x102px
Link 2: resolution 800x170px
Link 3: resolution 1080x230px
DO NOT FLASH THESE ZIP FILES IN CWM!
1. Download the bootanimation.zip file somewhere on your phone
2. Copy-paste it into /system/media, replacing the current file
3. Set permissions to 644 for the zip file
4. Reboot and enjoy.
If you're planning on going back to your previous boot animation, make a backup of the current zip file somewhere on your phone before replacing it with some of the ones above.
N-Joy.

First! Thanks for that great tutorial. It's been a long time since I wanted to create my own, but was lazy enough to learn. Now everything is in one place.
And a screenshot... I appreciate that, bro!!! :thumbup:

Like this guide, but I love official google bootanimation.
Also, nexus bootanimation is good, I think.
And, I don't like cm bootanimation.

The 'c' in desc.txt dont work. Android 4.4.2 plays the animation until the 'c' part come than it stops there... why? If I replace the 'c' with 'p' then it works so looks like an invalid command or else :/

So, you can either put all your frames in a single folder and name it "part0" (yes, the name is mandatory), or create more folders if you plan to create a more complex animation such as one that will show a section of your animation multiple times or will make a pause between sections/parts. If you just want to animate one single section, with no special requirements, you can just create a single folder containing all your images.
For more in-depth information on how do the bootanimations work on Android, please, visit this page.
Creating the animation parts/ folders
So, we'll create a folder called part0 and a file called desc.txt. If you want to keep your stuff organized, you can throw them both in another folder and name it whatever you want. You're not going to use that anyway. It's just to keep your stuff organized.
We'll now fill in the folder with slides from the first section of the animation. For this case, we want the animation to run the first section (part0) only once, then move to the second one (part1) and keep that in a continuous loop until Android starts.
The image format, for as far as I know, can be any common format, but I only worked with .png so I would recommend using this format.
The image titles can also be anything you want BUT remember to put the slides in an organized fashion, starting with 0.
For example: if you want to name your images "img000.png", "img001.png", "img002.png" etc, that's fine, but start the counting with 0 and name them all in a similar way, meaning no "ImG000.png", "image001,png", "imag002.png" and so on so forth. Stick to a single way of naming them.
I would personally recommend the easiest way: "000.png", "001.png", "002.png" etc.
Ok, now we'll create a second folder at the same location, and we'll call this one part1. In this folder we'll put the rest of the slides we want it to animate until Android starts.
Now that we have all the images in place, let's move to the next step.
Creating the animation's "control panel"
The "desc.txt" is one of the most important parts of the bootanimation.zip file. It controls basically everything related to that animation.
So make sure to use Notepad++ (if you're using Windows) for editing that file and set it up for UNIX systems (this is important!).
If you're using Linux, you can just edit it with no worries using the built-in gEdit editor.
Now let's open it up in Notepad++/ gEdit and set it up to animate our images the way we want.
But first, let's understand a little bit what exactly can be set up in the desc.txt file.
Code:
[animation width; in px] [animation height; in px] [fps]
480 102 24
[part descriptor*] [nr of loops; 0 = infinite loop] [pause - in seconds] [destination folder]
p 1 0 part0
[part descriptor**] [nr of loops; 0 = infinite loop] [pause - in seconds] [destination folder]
c 0 0 part1
*The "p" descriptor tells the system to stop playing the animation if the boot-up process has finished.
**The "c" descriptor tells the system to continue playing the animation until the boot-up process has finished. This method helps on porting the same animation across multiple platforms because the boot-up time differs from one device to another.
So, in English, what this tells to the system is that it wants it to play an animation having width=480px and height=102px at a rate of 24 fps, in two parts:
1st part needs to be played once, with no pause before the next part or loop (if it's set to continue in an endless loop).
2nd part needs to be played in an endless loop, with no pause between loops, until Android starts.
The width and height of the animation have to be the ones of the images you're going to use.
For example: If you've got 480x102px images, the desc.txt file should also contain 480(width) 102(height) in it.
Note: If you've got images bigger than your physical screen resolution, it will play only the visible part.
So, your finished content of the desc.txt file, should look somewhat similar to this:
Code:
480 102 24
p 1 0 part0
c 0 0 part1
Now that we've got everything set up and ready to use we can proceed to the last step.
Creating the zip file
Now, if you had enough patience to read this whole tutorial, I will ask you to have some more because this part is really important.
When creating the bootanimation.zip file, make sure you set the compression level/method to Store. Both WinRAR and 7-zip support this. This is very important! Without it, your animation won't play and you'll most likely see a black screen during boot time.
You need to select the folders (part0, part1 etc) and the desc.txt file inside your working folder and create a zip archive of that. DO NOT ARCHIVE THE WHOLE WORKING FOLDER!
Ok, now that we've got the animation content zipped in a single bootanimation.zip file, all we need to do is to copy-paste it into /system/media folder on our phone and replace the current bootanimation.zip file from there.
After that, we need to set permissions 644 for the zip file (as described below) and reboot the phone.
That's all folks. Now you know how to create/edit a bootanimation.zip.
Examples
Without Google logo
Link 1: resolution 480x102px
Link 2: resolution 800x170px
Link 3: resolution 1080x230px
With Google logo (original version)
Link 1: resolution 480x102px
Link 2: resolution 800x170px
Link 3: resolution 1080x230px
DO NOT FLASH THESE ZIP FILES IN CWM!
1. Download the bootanimation.zip file somewhere on your phone
2. Copy-paste it into /system/media, replacing the current file
3. Set permissions to 644 for the zip file
4. Reboot and enjoy.
If you're planning on going back to your previous boot animation, make a backup of the current zip file somewhere on your phone before replacing it with some of the ones above.
N-Joy.

How to make the png image series of the frames ? Which software should I use to make the frames. (I am not talking about frames from video of gif file)

nice guidelines of that

@arsradu
Hi Arsradu
I hope you can help me
I wanted to change the boot animation of a custom rom (Epic rom 7.8.24 on Xiaomi Mi Mix - MIUI 9 -).
I remplaced five stock pictures by 5 others, .pgn, same size (1080*2040), same name (01, 02...05).
Compression method to Store. Renamed in "bootanimation.zip".
But the animation isn't functionnal : black screen
The code is the same than stock bootanimation :
Code:
1080 2040 5
p 0 5 part0
Permissions file are 644.
There isn't the third line "c" like you.
When i try with the c line, after reboot this line is deleted automatically.
Do you know where is the problem ?
I uploaded the stock zip and my zip.
Thank you.

Hi,
It's been a while since I've written this tutorial. lol.
I took a look at the files you provided. So, the stock animation works, but yours shows a black screen? In my experience, this occurs because of the compression method not being set to Store. Or the permission not being 644. If you say the only thing different about your zip, compared to the stock one, are the actual png files, then I really don't know what to say. Can you check the compression method on the original zip? Maybe that particular one is not set for Store... Maybe it's set to something else? I don't know.
For the c line, I think you might need a second batch of frames added to a part1 folder. Since you only have 5 frames, I don't think there is a point for that. To be honest, I can't test this anymore since I'm no longer using that phone, and I don't use a rooted phone anymore. ) But that doesn't mean I can't try to help you either way.

Yes i was in 2013, sorry ^^
But you make me realize on thing : if the compression and extension are ok, and the desc file too, the problem comes from pictures.
I was using 1080*2040 because it is my screen size, but the stock MIUI boot pictures are 1080*1920. I don't know why, but i used this dimension and IT' S FUNCTIONNAL ! I'm Happy :highfive:

LOL. So, I guess there is one more reason why you could see only a black screen: the frames sizes. The more you know. ) 4 years later, I'm still learning new things.
I'm glad you got it fixed. Great job!

I have a problem. My system boots up a lot faster than it it is want it to. So is there a way to forcibly execute all the parts even if the system is booted up. I mainly want to know about how should I use the descriptor.
(I know the last descriptor should be 'p' descriptor)

This is the desc.txt of a bootanimation zip which executes all the parts at least once even if the system has booted. I don't know how that works. Maybe it has something to do with the '0' and '1' written after the part numbers.

Problem with 3 parted bootanimation
So I have the problem that my Bootanimation consists of 3 parts "part0", "part1" and "part2" but part2 is never played. I have also numberd every single picture right and the "desc.txt" file shouldn't be wrong too.
desc.txt file:
Code:
1080 1920 30
c 1 0 part0
c 0 0 part1
c 1 0 part2
I hope some one can help me with that.

[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:

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.

The frames will need resizing down rather than cropping. 1440p vs 1080p, so 33%. If you want to test how a single frame looks on the OP5 simply resize it, use an image editor to center it on a 1080x1920 canvas and view it on the phone. If you resized it 33% down it should look the same proportion as the original looks on the 7Pro.
Faststone Photo Resizer is a great free tool to do batch operations like resize and crop.
The other thing you will need to tackle is the desc.txt. It will need to be altered to reflect the new reolution of your images. My guide will tell you how.
If you zip one of the frames and the desc.txt, and upload it here, i'll take a look if you want? Make sure to quote or @ mention me otherwise i won't know you've responded.
BTW. porting an existing Boot Animation is a great way to learn to how they work and a great place to begin if you plan to make your own. The guides i've written should cover every question you might have but i'm happy to help if you run into trouble.

There are a few things that can trip you up if they're not correct. (All are covered in my guides). Editing the desc.txt correctly is essential, so if you think the images are correct in name and format, focus on that. For example, you have to begin a new empty line before saving the file otherwise it doesn't work. So in Notepad++ the lines of text are numbered down the left side. It might look something like:
1) 1080 1920 40
2) c 1 0 part0 #121411
3) c 0 0 part1 #121411
4) c 1 0 part2 #121411
5)
So in this example the fifth line needs to exist and be empty. Save the desc.txt as 'All Types', as below:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Another thing that can easily trip you up is creating the zip archive. Use WinRar as described in my guide. (The screenshot tells you everything you need to know).
Don't forget that you need to set permissions on the bootanimation.zip correctly if you are installing it manually. I suggest creating a flashable zip for installation. You can reverse engineer one of mine.
If you have any more issues, upload a frame from the original along with the desc.txt.

I think it looks too high on the OP7. They're really under-utilising all that vertical space with the Stock Animation.
If you do want to move the animation up a bit just add some Black canvas to the bottom of each frame. That would make each frame taller, so you would need to edit the desc.txt to match the final resolution of the frames.
Left is adjusted Animation as already posted.
Middle is the result if 100px of Black canvas added to Bottom of frames.
Right is the result if 200px of Black canvas added to Bottom of frames.
You can exptrapolate from there.
Edit: Remember, whatever you decide to do with the height placement, the proportion is only for 1080p devices. For larger resolutions you would need to create another module and resize the frames again to suit. (For 1440p devices you could just use the original 7Pro frames without resizing)

Perhaps we can call upon @strongst to wield his mod power to tidy up the thread for the OP? I'm sure Pierre would like to have a nice clean first page to post his work in and for further discussion of it. Everything from post # 3 down serves no more purpose now and could be removed. :good:

On the contrary, I think those posts are very useful and serve as good reference points for someone wanting to do this on their own and wanting to learn. In my opinion, they definitely shouldn't be removed.

Absolutely not! Your posts are very very very helpful to understand the structure of a bootanimation, and can be useful to some people. Please don't delete them

The team is always ready to clean a thread from whatever the OP deems to be off-topic. Just a brief report is needed. But it requires the OP to "complain" who can also provide guidance regarding off-topic in his OP.
However, everybody is requested to immediately report any post that violates the XDA Forum Rules. Please never reply to such a post.

First look at the Pixel 4 Boot Logo/Animation in this video: (4:00)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahVY2DJxCN8
Logo may be the same as in the Q Beta releases, (idk), but the Animation is new i think. There's something i haven't seen before just before setup begins. (Either the end of the Animation, or beginning of setup). What do you think?
