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.

I set each boot to run about 10~11 seconds.. If the boot for Galaxy Nexus is longer I can adjust and re-upload.

I made the two vids to loop on the last frame..

I can easily re-edit to loop the entire sequence or to play out longer.. let me know how long the boot is for the phone and I can adjust according to your desire.

No Problem.... Thanks for the heads up sefirosu! I was not aware that the boot was that long.

Re-formated to run out 25 seconds.. I set the fps for 08 if I go much lower it gets choppy..

Does the Stock HD one have optimized colors and true blacks like this one?

http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1380655

If not, do you think you could make one like that? If it helps, I did my best to manually upscale the XDA one to 720p while retaining quality, so you can repack these PNGs into a flashable ZIP.

Edit: These (or at least the Stock HD one) don't seem to work in 4.0.3. I'm just getting a black screen while it boots up. Apparently it's something to do with the ZIP compression of the animation that changed between .2 and .3... I don't really know *shrug*

It appears that the 4.0.3 ROM is looking in data/local for the bootanimation.zip file..

My flash installer installs to system/media. Try copying the bootanimation.zip file to the data/local folder.

I downloaded the file from this cleaned out the Mac OS trail.. of hidden files.

Here are the results: - I do not have a Galaxy Nexus to see the difference. You are welcome to to try... let me know if there is an improvement.
Optimized Stock Boot - system/media install
Optimized Stock Boot - data/local install

Okay, TheRoosevelt, - here are your flash install files -

png file format ~> The boot images are huge as pngs. - You will likely get a boot black out due to the file sizes.. (it may play the first few images before going black)
Files removed due to size and lack of downloads..

jpg file format ~> took the liberty to convert the images to jpgs (saves file size) - Files do not have to be pngs to play - retained 720x1280 resolution.
Download - system/media install
Download - data/local install

Enjoy.
