Thanks for making things just a little easier!! Before long, all we will have to do is plug in our phone and press 1 for rom flash, 2 for kernel......etc.etc. Ok, probably not, but you guys and your flashing scripts make life a hell of a lot easier on the rest of us! Keep up the awesome work!

anyone try this on bamf rom? i understand different roms have different methods potentially for boot animation location/enabling...

Since the boot animation is the same for BAMF as stock, i would imagine its in the same place. I wouldn't think Eris would have moved the bootanimation location and left it stock.
I haven't tried it on BAMF but i can when i get home.

xjedi I'm Gonna Add This To My Tool So People Will Get Directed To Your OP, Great Work Man.

Can anyone try these boot animations from my post on various ROMs using this method? I would love to be able to link to this in my post and have it actually work. We've been having issues with other ROMs since they seem to be more complicated than Ineffabilis. Any help with posts of if this works would be awesome!

This didnt work at all for me . I did everything on the instructions .????

can I use a video as my boot animation or is it just .PNG files that are only allowed?

i used to make boot animations and i can tell u they are pics that make it look like a video

there are programs i think that can take a video and turn it into pictures.. that would work
