I have complied the original post's off all the bootanimation threads in the G2/DZ forum. Feel free to add your bootanimations to this list. Please do not ask questions in this thread. It is only intended to have final bootanimations.

I really like the stock G2 boot image, but without being animated, it felt very stiff and boring. So I added some animation to it. It's very simple, with the fading grey lines at the top and bottom moving to the left slowly:


(this is a low quality GIF, the actual animation looks better, I promise)

I made this mostly for myself, but it turned out better than I expected so I wanted to share it. This is my very first boot animation, so be gentle in your criticism. :eek: This is an 800x480 boot animation, so it should work on other devices with that screen resolution, though I don't know why you'd want a G2 boot screen on your Nexus One or Droid Incredible. :rolleyes:

To use this animation, use adb or a root explorer app to put the file in /data/local and make sure it's named bootanimation.zip. The file is attached below, or you can download it from MediaFire.

UPDATE: I just finished the modified version of this boot animation that replaces the T-Mobile logo with the HTC logo. Aside from that, they're the same. The new one is attached below, or you can grab it from MediaFire.

Enjoy!

I didn't make the original work. I just modified the information so that it tailored the specs of the G2.

Code:

adb devices (optional, only to see if adb sees your phone)

adb remount

adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local

(if this doesn't work, try pushing to /system/media also)

Now to test if it worked type:
Code:

adb shell bootanimation
<press ctrl+c to quit>

Info on BIOS is for G2.




*Update* 01/03/11

All the updates are in! 800 MHz is made per request.

Added Gingerbread versions for those running 2.3!

Rename file to "bootanimation.zip", then follow instructions above.

Enjoy!


*Update* 02/28/11

Added CM6 and CM7 version for those using Flippy125's Kernel.

Okay...WE NOW HAVE SOUND!!

First off, thanks to mrdaviso for script and instructions from spiicytuna.
My apologies to amazinglarry311, credit goes to him/her for the enablesound script.

enablebootsound scripts can be found here:

Enable Sound Boot

Here's how I did it:

Flash zip file from recovery.
reboot
Place android_audio.mp3 on sdcard root (change name of android_audio.zip to android_audio.mp3)
adb shell(I am assuming you are root)
enablebootsound(mine wasn't already enabled)
newbootsound

You can also use this script to install bootanimation now. ( I still prefer the old way)

place bootanimation.zip on sdcard root
newbootanim

A "Thanks" will do. ;)

Hi all. This isnt new but for those of you that havent found it yet this is the Xoom Honeycomb boot animation feel free to download. But I need assistance, after installing it when the animation ends and it is about to loop there is a quick flash to white screen and then it continues. Not too big of a deal but was wondering if anyone could help me, Im kind of a perfectionist but have no idea how to fix it myself. Thanks

Heres a vid of what it looks like
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSWnKu5hr7g&feature=player_embedded

and I will attach the bootanimation.zip

For those that dont know. All you have to do is take the .zip, rename it to bootanimation.zip and copy it to the /system/media folder. Backup your old boot file if you want.

Edit: Found a ported version for the droid x that looks pretty good going to attach that. I also attached two landscape bootanimations. One has the Honeycomb Bee at the beginning and the other doesnt. Just thought you guys might want to see it.

****Disclaimer!!! I am not responsible for any errors or issues that may come from using these directions. This method has been tested and used by me on the T-Mobile G2 ONLY.****


Ok, I like playing with boot animations on my device. And I have this quirk for running everything I can on the device, rather than through ADB, unless I have to. While digging through assorted threads, here and abroad, I ran across a nifty app called GScript lite, free on the Market, and amazingly useful. On another thread, someone pointed out that if you copy a boot animation to /data/local, it will take precedence over any boot animations that your favorite ROM may install. So, I decided to simplify changing boot ani's, so I can swap them around whenever I feel like it. I now have it down to about 30 sec, and decided to post this for everyone interested to try it. Ok, so, here's the details;

Requirements: GScript lite, file manager, new boot animations

1) Download the animation you want to try to your SDcard
2) Copy the zip to /mnt/sdcard
3) Rename animation file "bootanimation.zip"
4) Open GScript and hit menu
a) Type in whatever you want to call the script in the top
box
b) Make sure "Needs SU?" is checked
c) Type cp /mnt/sdcard/bootanimation.zip /data/local
<enter>
reboot
d) Now hit "save"
5) Just press your scriptname in the list and enjoy!

From here on out, to change boot animations, all you need to do is copy the renamed file to SD root, and click on that script, phone will reboot showing your brand new animation. "Share and Enjoy!"


I'd like to thank the GScript devs for a very useful tool, and Kaanha for the commands





Click the Thanks button if this helps you.

Bootanimation for CM7.

"CM7-3D"



1. Download bootanimation.zip
2. Put it on your sdcard
3. open terminal enter these commands:

su
cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/media/
reboot

If it doesn't work in /system/media, try in /system/local

You can also use any root explorer app to move this from your sd card manually.

DO NOT TRY AND FLASH FROM RECOVERY, IT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY.

Enjoy.

Here are some bootanimations I created. Some of these are pointless. I just made them to mess with my friends.

Im open to input, sugestions, etc....as I want to create a more smoother version.

::Instruction::
Download the zip and place it in /system/media
You should already have a file named bootanimation.zip...simply replace it with the downloaded one, of course renaming to bootanimation.zip

If it doesn't work in /system/media than
try in /system/local

**********

You all should know the warnings, so dont bother unless you know what your doing.

**********

::Marvel:: V1.2 (3/21/11)


This version is different from the first version. I thought the images looked better, however I had to play with them in order to get a good enough flow.
I also added an old school ending.

Thanks to al28283 for making the video, and to everyone else in the community who made these mods possible!

::pIN:: V1.0 (3/24/11)

::Shutdown::V1.0 (3/25/11)



Thanks and have fun!

Was about to say that lol. Good work tho.

I know you probably intend to create an animation, with thoes files, but with the current setup, you could have just left it with one png and set the fps to 1 ...since there is no animation.

Cant wait to see what you crank out...feel free to share.

Goodluck.
Probz gonna be NSFW ones =D

EDIT: Here! (NSFW-ish)

Here are four bootanimations I did.
Please be gentle, they are my first attemps.
Images:










I need help though. I find it very hard to find gifs at 480x800. Does this mean that if I have to make my own?

This is a port of another boot animation I saw in another thread (if anyone knows which one, let me know and I'll give the original author credit). If you want the added "fatality dun-dun-dunnnnnnn" sound, download the attached "android_audio.zip" file, unzip it, and put it in /system/media (if you're running a CM-based Gingerbread build like GingerVillain 1.5 or PyroMod 1.1, rename finishhim.zip as bootanimation.zip, put android_audio.mp3 and bootanimation.zip on the root of your SD card, and follow this guide).

*psst...this boot animation might be illegal in Australia :p*

Hey Guys. Here is the boot animation extracted from the Destroyed ROM which, to the best of my knowledge, was only available for the EVO. I I thought it looked pretty cool so I had my friend extract it for me and I thought I'd share it with you guys. I hope you like it!

Installing:
I'm not sure how other people like to install their boot animations, however if you don't know how here is how I do it:

*Must have super user permissions

1.Download and Open Terminal Emulator from the android market
2.Download bootanimation.zip from this thread and put it on your sd card
3.Enter this code into Terminal Emulator:
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp /locationOfFile/bootanimation.zip /system/media
where the /locationOfFile/bootanimation.zip would just be the directory where you have the zip file. if you just put it on the root of your sd card it would be /sdcard/bootanimation.zip and if you downloaded it using your phone it would probably be under /sdcard/download/bootanimation.zip


restart your phone and it should work. Hope this helps!

Edit:

*Be sure to backup your old bootanimation.zip if you think you may ever want to go back to it!

Hello, I tried searching around but couldn't find any similar problem.

I've created my own bootanimation.zip which can be downloaded here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=576GF823 Its Red Wings Related, showing the Center Ice at Joe Louis Arena, then an awesome goal by zetterberg, then loops center ice again. That all works great.

The problem I've run into is that the first time it plays any of the animations they are slow. and when I'm only playing the goal once it goes in slow mo, if i loop it, the 2nd time it plays fast as it should. Is there anyway to fix this? I originally was just doing the goal, then the center ice on loop. I tried putting 1 center ice first, hoping it would take the lag and allow the goal to play full speed, but it doesn't.

Any help is appreciated.
