Katalystik,

We wanted to plug in here for a moment. Sometimes, without rhyme or reason when you have an App that suddenly stops or will not initialize we have found moving it to /system/app solves the problem 90% of the time. Be sure to change the permissions to User: Read Write | Group: Read and Others: Read.

The other 5% of the problems are cleared by:

1. Going to More+ Applications > Installed Applications
2. Find Boot Animations ★ root and clear the Data
3. Reboot

The last 5% need:

1. Going to More+ Applications > Installed Applications
2. Find Boot Animations ★ root and clear the Data
3. Move Boot Animations ★ root from /data/app to /system/app
4. Change the permissions to User: Read Write | Group: Read and Others: Read
5. Reboot, wait 3 minutes for everything to initialize
6. Open Boot Animations ★ root

I apologise, I should have explained my problem more clearly. Before I moved the app it was working fine. I could open it and select a local or server file to use. I chose local and selected a boot animation.zip from /sdcard using the cyanogen 10.1 vertical 800 file as per the OP. I rebooted using the option at the top.

What I was greeted with was the orange kf logo, non animated, and which hung there for 20-30 seconds before dimming, and then getting the kindle is upgrading message. It would then boot into nova as normal. No animated kf logo, no custom animation and no animation at all. On a few occasions, before the kf logo dims and before the kindle is upgrading message I get what u would call a brick screen (looks like digital static) which was scary when I first saw it but it still boots correctly.

Now would be the right time to say I have persons tweak pack installed, i have read somewhere that with the tweaks it boots too fast for the animation to display. This is a shame if true. Is there anyway to get both working if so as I'd rather not lose my boot animation or persons tweaks as they rock my kindle.

Go back to the Parsons tweak's thread, there may be something posted by another user that could help you.

For anyone else, this should work fine.

Katalystik,

Please carefully make a copy of your build.prop and post it in our Backup and Recovery thread here:

We will get your Boot animation back. When you post the build.prop, please give us details on how you would like the boot animation to display when booting your Kindle.
