[BOOT ANIMATION] Custom Boot Animations For Advent Vega [Updated 21/02/11]

O_G · Feb 11, 2011

Hi All.

I have had some free time so i thought i would try something i have never done. While browsing a while ago i saw some bios boot animations, so i thought i would kick off with one i made for are vegas. If i get the time i will make some more. They are easy to make, just a bit time consuming making all the .pngs for the animation (there are around 75) Feel free to edit my animations, all i ask is that you post them in this thread if you want to share them. If you plan to add it to a rom please only edit the rom info and leave my details in. "Boot By Original_Ganjaman" and credit my work.

Edit: Added New vega Boot Animation

Installation:

1 - Download the Boot Animation, rename it to bootanimation.zip and copy it to your SD card.

2 - Copy the bootanimation.zip to Data/local on your device (i use root explorer)

3 - Restart your Device and enjoy the new boot animation

To revert to normal boot screen just delete bootanimation.zip from Data/local.

Nice!
I knew it from HTC phones Android ROMs, didn't know its possible for tablets as well.

Will try it tomorrow.

I've just installed it already. A bit of nostalgia with the Vega prompt, I love Sega Genesis/Mega Drive since I was a child

Thanks a lot!

Does this replace the Advent logo or is it for the booting part of the process before that, or indeed both?

For the advent logo only. I dont think it is possible to change the booting part.

The new 1.09 update has a small android picture instead of the booting text, that usually appears, and the bootloader size seems to have changed too, so I think that it is possible, but we don't know how...

Probably part of the bootloader, so not going to touch that.

No problem using this in your rom. Just as i said in my first post, if you have edited any .pngs please only post in this thread. Using a unmodified one is fine. (changing FPS etc is fine) I just dont want modified versions of my work being posted else where. What is the small change you have made?

Edited First post to clear up some sharing issues.

As discussed, I changed my modification, it shows now the original author of the animation.

On the published ROM I use the first 2 of the attached examples.
On my own tablet I show instead the owner information, as shown in the last 2 attached examples.

O_G · Feb 13, 2011

Thats fine. I have updated my first post to cater for people who want to add it to a rom.

Take it easy

How have you been creating the .pngs? I have been using photoshop cs4 and the image size is nothing like that. Even at 1024x600.

i use photoshop cs3 and cs5 for the editing i think its the problem the gradient in my image i will try it out without gradient / effects

( png are a pain in the ass when it comes to filesize

)

im a front end developer en i work every day with images and websites
but this image is just way too big

im gonna try another solution and when its fine i will post the psd here voor everybody to make there own custom..

i found the solution it was de radial gradient... without it my images are 36kb. i wil post it when im done

Hi All,

Pop over to Modaco where "Wobblydoggy" has posted the honeycomb boot animation. Read the whole thread and then choose the second version.

Worked well for me, as Wobbly said a little grainy, but I like it a lot
