Hi everybody,
I want to create a animated bootup screen.
since im pretty high skilled in adobe flash pro i wanted to make a nice
bootup animation together with a relaxing sound
i know i got to use a .WAV file for the sound, i think i'll be able to add that
into my booting screen.
but my question is :
what size does it need to be ...x... ?
what format do i have to use so it will actually work ( will be neat after alot of work )
i know it is possible, i did try to search for a ''how-to'' but couldn't find one.
let me know
bye's
alex
Size is 800x480, format is animated GIF.
Use Schapman's Advanced Config to change the startup sound and animation
thank you very much!
i will post some animated boot-up screens.
any requests?
p.s.
what is the time limit, not that i whas thinking of a boot screen
that's taking forever, but just incase
I have a blue angels theme with blue angles logo in black background.
some fading efect or bottom up slide with be nice.
or a y axes rotation.

Hi all,
Here's a splash screen set I did for myself. The main download is "Welcome Splash.zip". This contains all the necessary files and instructions to install it to your device.
The second download is "Splash.zip". This is for advanced users only and is the Splash.nb file for cooking into a ROM.
10-10-08 - Source Graphics and Font files uploaded.
N.B. I'm not a designer, I didn't do the artwork, just the packaging.
Hope you enjoy!
andrew-in-woking
absolutely beautiful my friend
great work and keep it up
I like the look a lot! Very clean and modern-artsy-looking-kinda-thing.
You wouldn't happen to have the same screen without the Welcome/Loading, would you? I'd like to see about getting the HTC logo where it says Welcome, or something to that effect.
very nice
Really nice Bravo ! Downloading and installing now
Source Files
Hi all,
I'll upload the source files, as requested within the next 24 hours.
Happy splash screen flashing!
andrew-in-woking
nice! This'll be good for manila 2d vista theme here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2684727&postcount=1022
Nice. I wonder if this can be done with SD-card flashing?
Animated GIF
Hi all,
I've uploaded the image and font file I used to make the splash screens. If anybody could make an animated GIF with text fading in and/or out that would complete the set. I don't know how to do this.
Cheers,
andrew-in-woking
Also for Elf ??
Hi, can I install this also on my Elf ??
Thanks.

Since the Kaiser forum is a qvga forum, you might try over at the raphael/diamond forums.
This is what I am looking too..
Thank you, works on me...
Very nice thanks downloading now
I'm not sure if I didn't do something right here or not, but I still see the AT&T Globe icon in between your new screen, and the 3G woosh screen still runs. Is this normal? I do see your new welcome screen, but in between is the AT&T globe and then the 3G graphics. That's what i would like to eliminate...
Oh well, I will wait to see what everyone else has...
Thanks

Hi
The screen you are talking about is the HTC animation screen. This is the software HTC loads into its ROMs which displays "animated.gif" on start up. You should install schaps advanced config 3.3. In this program you have the option of disabling this part of the start up sequence.
Hope that helps

Hi wapvirus
Is it me or is the transition the wrong way round? Shouldn't it go from "Welcome" to "Loading" not the other way round?
Cheers

Here you go
I tried to use the neue helvetica 35 thin font, but for some reason I could not get that installed on my Photoshop. So I am using another font.
Here is my version.
Right click on the first image(with just W) and save. This is the animated.gif file. The image(Welcome) is just a screen image.
hi..ok i have a touch pro from sprint..im tryn to put a background picture on the home screen and i cant do it..also im tryn to put the flip clock color blue instead of yellow..but my phones tellin me sum bs..is there a simple easy way to do this..help plz..thanks
What happens when you open a pictire and click on menu-->set as today background. I use that on my touch. Not sure if the interface has changed for WM6.1. What does your phone tell you when trying to set the image as the background?
I can set different wallpapers using the aforementioned method, but every picture I try (even ones from 'WM6 wallpaper sites') has a white semi-transparent layer on it. Very annoying. What's the deal with that?!
I know currently that animated pics dont work on the android os, or does it? They have to to an extent for the face that the second boot pic is animated with the lil android dude or if u got 1.5 the android text. my old razr v2 didnt allow this either until someone was able to make a theme with a animated pic embedded as the bg. has anyone been looking into this.
Idk but this would be really nice to have though...
Animated Radar images on i.wund.com (weatherunderground.com's iPhone site) don't seem to work either.
This is a big deal for me since I am a frustrated wanna be meteorologist.

There are animated buttons in the calculator application. I'd would check that code to see what's making that work and see if there is anyway to make it work anywhere else... if there is a will, there will be a way.

There is also an animated boot screen, guess it is a gif but I don't know...
um I know that theDUDE and im sure others have changed the ANDROID on cupcake... v1.5. One flashes across a different text and it has a fire effect through the letters... im sure their are some constraints at the moment...
but just thought id throw my 2 cents in.. maybe they had more luck

Dont quote me, but I think that those are just 2 .png files interlaced with each other. Any themer would know better though.
from what i can tell most of the themers that have changed it only changed the color of the background behind the android text. it is a simple .png that has a "shiny" section and it loops the entire image to the right. i am not sure what causes it to move, but i thought i saw someone used fireworks to create a new image. i am sure that if you get the source code from google you can have a look to see what is actually happening
I made the fire for the prodigal port and i changed the whole image for the boot i did for the Dude's Full 1.1a default i also made it faster. There are i cons in parts of the theme that can be made bigger and not affect the theme.
i think this is a deja vu post again. there must be an older one.
the basic answer is that the current widget can only display static images unless you extend it yourself.
Hello to everyone,
I’m a newbie HTC HD2 owner, my phone is a Tmous leo original ROM 2.13.531.1(90963) WWE, Manilla 2.520121412.2 and I have these two custom images (240x320.gif).....
......and I tried to use them as an animated lockscreen wallpaper and doesn’t work, also I tried to use them as an animated home wallpaper and doesn’t work either.
I would greatly appreciate if someone is kind enough to help me make this work in my phone.
Thanks in advance.
first of all, do you used CHT? (Cookie Home Tab)
Secondly, till here I didn't saw a animated lock screams.

Hi kurt-willems,
Thank you for reply.
1st. No, I don't use CHT. (I wish to, but I can't for the moment)
2nd. I searched arround and I only saw an animated one for "U2S2" lockscreen, but I don't know if could be any for the original lockscreen.
3th. If I can't use any of them as a lockscreen, I'll be more than happy to use them as an animated wallpaper like the fish tank I'm using thanks to Whiskeybro and this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619450
Also I resized my costum animated gifs from 240x320 to 432x576 size and now fix perfectly the phone screen, but no animation at all
Well, I hope someone could help me to get it work right.
Thank you for your help.
Hi, any idea?

You can't just resize an animated image in my experience. There's some "magic" that needs to be done to do it properly even though your image editing program seems to be doing it it only does it on one frame and only saves that frame.

Hi Airborne Aircrew,
Thanks for reply, well, I don't know to much about it, but my original costum images are 240x320 gif. files and as I said, I resized them to 432x576 like as shown now,
If you're interested in learning more about it, visit this http://www.animated-gifs.eu/animated-gifs.htm and I hope will be useful.

hey guys. we just got a Xoom for my wife and are having a blast so far. i know we're coming in late in the game.
I did a lot of searching and have come up with all sorts of answers as to what is the proper resolution for the wallpaper.
I don't care too much about the perfect format to include all of my image in the wallpaper...what I care about is once I choose an image for the wallpaper, that it look sharp and detailed and not blurry or full of artifacts because honeycomb is stretching the image.
no matter what size image i've tried this far, 99% of the time what ends up actually shown as my wallpaper is a zoomed in portion of my image, and because of the stretching to fit the screen it doesn't look too good.
your input is appreciated. likewise if there is anywhere to just go and get Xoom-sized decent wallpapers I would appreciate a link too
thanks!
Same for me! Whatever resolution, big or small, it just wants me to crop the image, I tried searching for this for a while but I came up with no solution. Hopefully someone here knows.
EDIT: TRY Wallpaper Wizardrii
If you click on the little + icon at the top right of the screen, you see the entire wallpaper. It zooms the wallpaper and i dont know why it was implemented in such a demented way. Everything you put ends up looking low res and washed out. There is a guide that shows how to add a black bar to the bottom portion of a wallpaper so it fits the screen properly and looks sharp, but this doesnt work well in portrait.
Check it out here: http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/motorola-xoom-graphics/320-getting-wallpapers-fit-just-right.html
Also see this app on the market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.twistedapps.wallpaperwizardrii
I heard this app works well.
Hmm! I have the same problem but with movies... They look unsharp a little bit...also on the youtube app even in hd...
