[Request] Shut Down Animation

---

Great to see so much activities in the forum. When I moved from EVO 4G to E4GT I was little worried that the E4GT would not have as much developers attention as EVO line.

Anywho.. I was thinking of getting rid of that ugly yellow sprint 4G animation on the shutdown process but no threads about that yet. I took chance by adding startup animation zip file in the system/media/video/shutdown folder but it doesn't work. I tried changing the .qmg file name to something different and that eliminated the animation and replaced with a 'phone is shutting down' pop up window.

Does anyone know if there is any way to get custom animation for shutdown?

i know you have to have a kernal that supports custom bootanime's so maybe same for shutdowns, and i can link up the thread on what kernal that i know for sure lets you have bootanimes

I already have the kernel in your link above and I've changed the startup boot animation. However, shut down animation doesn't work by adding a zipped animation file in the shut down directory. I'll wait and see if any developer come up with the kernel that support the shut down animation change.

BTW, I thanked you for your kind reply with the link

+1000000000000000 for a shutdown animation!!!

Op read my mind lol

Once this is possible, I'm setting my shutdown animation to a BSOD.

Here's the Galaxy S2's stock shutdown animation (linked in the following post). It's a .qmg so it should work fine if you replace the stock one.

Thanks!!! That .qmg file works!!!! It's not the best graphic available but much better than the yellow sprint 4G splash.

No prob, IMHO it'll work for now until the roms start including custom shutdown animations. It's much easier on the eyes with the black backgroud vs. the blinding white stock one.

thanks! can't wait for a bsod shut down animation
