[Boot Animations] Share your boot animations [480x800]

---

Hi all,

I’ve taken a lot from this forum recently, and now I would like to give a little something back...

I’m no developer, but I’ve been playing with the boot animation and I’ve finally worked out how to make my own. So I’d like to share my first attempt with you all and welcome your comments.

• Requirements - rooted phone, a root file explorer with write permission.
• Download your desired bootanimation.zip and save it on your phone SD card where you can find it again.
• Use your favourite root explorer to copy and paste it over your current bootanimation.zip (my location for this is at /data/local in phone storage, not SD card).
• The next time you reboot your device, you should see it after the initial Splash Screen!

If you want to make your own boot animation but don’t know how to, then I used the guide as found HERE.
But please note, for the Incredible S you should set the resolution to 480 x 800 in the .txt file, and save the images as 480 x 800, 24 bit, .png.

• Here's my first bootanimation.zip, it is ARHD ROM themed, I hope you like it:
  
  Here's the link for ARHD animation: http://db.tt/DAAVt4Bj

• My second one is this HTC themed bootanimation.
  Download and preview screen-shot in Post #2.

• My third bootanimation is JellyBean themed.
  Downloads (two versions available) and preview screen-shot in post #9.

• My ViperVivo Bootanimation & Splash Screen
  Download and screen-shots can be found HERE on their official thread.

• Blue Clouds Bootanimation & Splash Screen
  Here is a new animation for you, a simple blue/black clouds 'Incredible S' animation. Animated preview and download link in post #11.

Please Note: The cooldroid revolution bootanimation by phonetech101 in post #7 below is no longer available, he's moved the file and the link is no longer good.

Thanks for looking!

PS: There doesn’t seem to be a thread in the Incredible S ‘Themes & Apps’ forum to ‘Share your Boot Animations’, just a couple of independent ones on a specific topic.
If you want to post your own designed or 'borrowed' boot animations in this thread, I don’t mind at all (I would advise to credit others if it's not yours). All will be in one place, and easy to find again. I won’t see it as hijacking my thread!

.

Here's another Boot Animation for you, based around the standard HTC one.
I've added 'dropping in' letters at the start, and the droid on a skateboard afterwards.
This isn't ROM specific, it's in a generic HTC style.
I hope you like it!

Here's a couple of shots of the boot-up:



The bootanimation.zip file is attached to this post. See post number 1 (above) for what to do with it.

Comments welcome...

Cheers,

(I'm not taking credit for creating the graphics in this, I just put them together in the animation to share with everyone.)

I can't tell on my mobile, I'll need to take a look on my laptop, but initially after unzipping your .zip file (original size 5mb), I noticed each image was >1mb each, so something doesn't add up.

Did you compress the .zip or zip as 'store only'?

You can't compress the .zip, it won't work...
I used winrar and saved it as a store only .zip.

The .zip size is something you'll have to live with when you start using fancy graphics in each frame.

My first one is >11mb, but my second one which has more frames is just a fraction of the size due to less complexed graphics.

Regarding a program, I don't know, sorry.
But I don't think you need it, you just need to sort out your .zip method.

JellyBean Themed Boot Animation (480 x 800)

---

Hi all,

JellyBean here, JellyBean there - here's a JellyBean boot animation I'd like to share!

Download link - fast version (approx. 17.5 MB): http://db.tt/njbYmy9k
Download link - slow version (approx. 13 MB): http://db.tt/E31MzY3R
(I like the slow version best)

Don't unzip it or flash it, just save it over your existing boot animation using your favourite root explorer app.

Enjoy!


Here's a preview screen-shot (click to enlarge):


Feedback always welcome.

(Please thank me if you use it, I'd like to see if I its worth me spending time on these in future!!)

This is what im waiting for......thanks....
