Mod Type:: Boot Animation

Difficulty:: Very Easy

Mod Status:: Stable

Apply In:: CWM Recovery

Requires Root:: Yes

Source::
Thanks again akellar for prompting me to try this out.

They are flashable in CWM and install the bootanimation.zip file to the system/media folder - this will work with 4.0.2 ROMs and earlier - the 4.0.3&4 ROMs require a different data mount - Specified by download.

General Disclaimer: If you choose to flash any of these files you take it upon yourself to know what you are doing. The files and scripts have been tested and do work. I am not responsible for the damages done to your phone or the collapse of the world economy. I will help you work out why they do not play.

Guys if you aren't familiar with JaeKar's work the guy is a bootanimation genius. Enjoy!

Jaekar, please tell me you make LWPs, those boot animations are super fly bro. Super fly.

Sorry, Bummer deal.. I gave up on LWP pre-Froyo.. If you find someone who will compile LWPs I will be happy to furnish all the images.

Can the boot animations be made with sound on the Nexus? I have one that I would love audio with.

This is the animation I have. I'd like to get the opening song for the show as the boot sound but haven't figured it out for this phone.

I will do some exploring and see if there is an option. I pulled apart Rootzboat and noted that there is no PowerOn.wav or poweron.au.. I am not that familiar with 4.x.

After tearing apart some ROMs I cannot locate where the boot sounds are located.

These look awesome! Hopefully you can figure out the sound portion for it. Thanks for checking on it!

Do any of these work on 4.0.3 as some things have changed and other bootanimations that worked fine on 4.0.2 will just be black screen on reboot. Thanks

Worked excellent. I'm running blue plasma (on a 4.0.2 rom)

As far as I know these boots should work for 4.0.3.. I do not know what has changed that would cause the effects you are describing other than kernel changes.

When I push these to /system/media in root explorer, what should I change the permissions to so I dont get a blank screen?

JaeKar99

Discussion Starter · #14 · Dec 23, 2011 (Edited by Moderator)

Permissions: rw - r - r. Should do it.

Love these bro. Can we get some slick greyscale ones? I'm not even going to try since your work is so excellent.

Bootanimations are basically just zipped GIFs broken down into separate images.... they will work on any version of android that has bootanimations.... only thing is getting the resolution to fill the whole screen

I am loving all of these different boot animations.

I really liked the boot animation from the Nexus S. It was swirls of 4 colors that made an X. I could of sworn I found it on RootzWiki somewhere... but now I can't find it anywhere. T_T
