Maybe this should have gone in the "mods stickie" but I wanted to also say thanks to this forum and not everyone visits the stickies regularly.
I have learned more than I would have imagined before finding this site and Regaw has been instrumental in shortening the learning curve for me lately.
No offense to anyone, but IMO he has assembled the fresh1.1 of 2.1's...
THANKS REGAW!! - for your work and for being so dedicated to people enjoying it! and Thanks to Damageless for providing such stable... "resources" to work on and learn from.
My g/f has been ridiculously patient with me, at many times but, especially since I got our hero's a few months ago. I recently learned how to sign basic zips so I wanted to make something for her...
*edit - Thanks to xenio2000 I can now alter .9.png's!!!!!
This is such a breakthrough for me!!
My first signed .zip:
PinkDial_Esp_v1.0.zip
This zip includes regular espresso rosie

I found the green call button bars in the phone .apk and changed them but they did not take. Does anyone know where else I should look? *edit - resolved
My second signed.zip: PinkDroidDial_v1.0.zip
This includes pink droid rosie
Thanks XDA!
Nice man the wife will really like this.
Hope you don't mind me asking a quick question I'v just notice you worked closely with Regaw on his rom and hope you might be able to offer some insight. I can't seem to get any of the boot screens to work even the one with the rom just shows black from a fresh wipe and flash. All of the zips flash fine, the files change in /system/media/bootscreen they just won't show. I tried Damages rom and can get the HTC bootscreen but flashing any others changes nothing I get the same htc bootscreen which is in a bootanimation.zip in /system/media/. If i remove the bootscreen.zip just get black bootscreen even though the files for the others are where they should be. This is the only thing that has my OCD acting up and i'm stumped. LOL Thanks for the dialer and any help you may be able to offer.

I had the same problem... Regaw saved the day. Here is his fix for that.

oh thats because you have to go into adb and do this first
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
# rm /system/media/android_audio.mp3
# rm /system/media/bootanimation.zip
# reboot
Then it will

Yeah no dice still. Thanks tho... I get the follwing on Regaws rom because the files are already removed.
C:\asdk\tools>adb shell
# rm /system/media/android_audio.mp3
rm /system/media/android_audio.mp3
rm failed for /system/media/android_audio.mp3, No such file or directory
# rm /system/media/bootanimation.zip
rm /system/media/bootanimation.zip
rm failed for /system/media/bootanimation.zip, No such file or directory
When I was testing it on damages Rom I removed the bootanimation.zip with android commander but not android_audio.mp3. but there was no change.
BTW nebenezer I'v got a Teal and Pink clock your Lady might like. My wife loves it but it makes me go cross eyed.
Thanks for the clock,
I'm at work right now so I cant be much help troubleshooting your bootscreen but I'm sure we can get it figured out.
One thing though, you should NOT have a bootscreen.zip in /system/media/bootscreen...
Maybe you need a different signed.zip
I have a couple from regaw that might work, if you don't get it sorted out by this evening we'll get it fixed.
The bootanimation.zip is only on Damages rom not in Regaw's it's in /system/media/ pretty sure it is supposed to be there on damages at least for stock.

...I'm still learning but I don't know how it would run from /system/misc as a .zip...
I'll look into it
Eagle, check your pm inbox

yes, I just bumped my own thread, I promise I wont do it again
OMG!!!! I've been wanting a pink theme for the longest time since we started messing with our phones! Thank u so much ...do u think you could do anything else in pink or pink with turquoise i would totally love it!!!
**this is not Casper, its his girl**
You wouldn't want to make a blue one of those or maybe teach a noob how to do it, would you? I've got tons of ideas, but no clue where to start!
if you flash another bootscreen from regaw, then delete the bootanimation.zip file from /system/media/ folder, it will work.
the bootanimation.zip file isnt needed if you want to install a custom boot screen
I'm almost finished turning the call button pink too
And yes, I'll be happy to make a blue one!
I'm still getting the hang of it so I probably wouldn't be the best teacher just yet. Let me get a few under my belt

I found the icon in the rosie apk but it's a .9 also, same problem I'm having with the call button. Once I get that fixed I'll do the button press and some other stuff.

omg, almost forgot, this is ONLY for 2.1 sense
you can view the Rosie.thm in notepad, all the commands seem to be there, i dont know if you can edit it and resave it as a .thm, so i dont know if you can make this work on 1.5. why not give it a try?
so i started messing around with metamorph, and i came out with this, and actually kinda like it.
its really easy to install
download the zip to anywhere on your sd card
download and install "metamorph" from the market
start meta, let it run its check (for root acess and the like)
then click on pick theme, navigate to the zip you downloaded, let it install (5s tops) and now you have a new espresso rosie! the blocks expand when you press them!!
future releases? any ideas? suggestions? requests?
this was built off of one someone posted a looong time ago, if you see this and wanna PM with your name and a link, ill gladly give credit!
this is my first mod ever, i know its lame, but im working on it, ok?
anyone have a strip down of the status bar? ill have fuuun with that one!!!!!!!
the best part of metamorph is, the fact that it only affects the files you tell it too. for example, most mods include an edit to the status bar AND rosie, because their both connected somehow. but with meta, theres no update signing or anything, its just putting in the right commands and images, and no need to boot recovery!!
i hope you enjoy!!

Tested and working. I see potential in this. Anyway you might share what you edited in the rosie.thm? Are there other modifications we could do?
Regardless thanks!

like i said, this is built off something someone else posted. i know you can view the .thm in notepad, i dont know if you can save, but i do see the commands, and a little research im sure i could get it down.
this is what the current thm says, i didnt touch it
Sense 2.1
any
Rosie.apk
/system/app/
i think its commands for meta, right?
telling it ot make sure we're running Sense, and 2.1
any version (the post i found this in mentioned you could do this in any 2.1 sense rom)
telling ot to push rosie to /system/app/
i think meta takes care of the rest. you just have to know what your running, what your pushing, and where your pushing it too...saves the hassle of signing and flashing an update, and COMPLETELY avoids the use of ADB
thank god,i never understood that

Not 100% worded correctly.
Rosie is the apk that will be edited, and it's located in /system/app
In the folder along with the scriptare folders that show the path inside the apk, and the files that will replace the existing ones. The script tells metamorph where to copy/replace the files in the folders to.

Unfortunately the xml files are coded/in binary
So even if you uncode them with that one XMLS blah blah .jar,
you shill wouldn't be able to make it work on the phone....

this sounds good about to try it out soon
This is just a quick mod I had made for myself. But a few people had expressed some interest in it, so here it is. All thanks and credit go to jschisurf for creating the Rosie mod to begin with. This is simply my version of that mod with a black AOSP-like taskbar(I say that its almost because the location icon is different because I hate that target lookin thing). This isnt a theme really, so all the menus and colors are stock and green. I did, however, add the font and animations from the Darkstar theme just cause I like them better. Anyways, if you want it, here it is and enjoy.

I tried to flash this over IC3rom 2.2, and it worked except for the time and date. They font color is still black, which is now against a black taskbar so it's unreadable. Originally it used a white taskbar with black font, so is that my problem? Do I need to use a different rom for this?

I'll be the first one to tell you Im no coding expert. But I do know the way the slashes face are important. All you should do is this:
adb remount
adb push Rosie.apk system/app
That being said, I dont know what ROM and/or theme youre currently using but if you just push Rosie all its gonna do is give you the three buttons overlayed on your current set-up so I dont know how its gonna look. The black buttons aren't in Rosie.apk theyre in htc-resources.apk so if you want/need them then you'll just have to flash the whole zip. Or if you got some crazy **** goin on PM me.

You dont need to switch ROMs. In my haste I neglected to account for the fact that someone might try and flash this over a white taskbar. Anyways, Ill upload a different version.

If you notice, its just the satelite when gps is just turned off, and then the signal bars appear when you turn it on. The only way to fix it would be to change the location icon.

Hey everyone I was wondering if I could get someone to put together a boot animation for my Evo?
I would like to get the basic Droid logo where it spells it out like the widely known animation seen on the Incredible and Droid commercials, and the red eye while its loading. I also want the robotic voice that says Droid.
I would be willing to provide all the screens for it, and the sound file. I just don't know how to put it together to make it work.
If anyone is willing to help me it would be much apreciated.

I can do it for you. Actually, I have the majority of it done already. I've already created the sound bite and the red eye you're talking about. The only thing I would need to add is the Droid logo. But it wouldn't hurt if you provided me with a new set of files.
Here's a little bit of what I've created already.

Id love that exact boot animation, only saying HTC EVO instead of HTC Incredible..and having it only play "droid". Without the rest of the sound effects. I have no idea how to go about doing that though
Ok everyone. I have taken the incredible boot, removed all the incredible stuff and have optimized it for our phone. It should be ready tonight. I have fixed it so the red doesn't cut off in the box.
we shall see. Cross your fingers.

Now you're not getting it. I'm going to cross your off the list. Sorry.
So much for your options.
Alright guys. Sorry it's taken so long. This is still a work in progress, however I figured most people would at least like to see what I've created and test it out for themselves, so I've decided to post it up.
Here's what the animation looks like:
Also, there is a soundbite that will accompany it, which is the regular "Drroooiiidd" everyone is familiar with. I've made it so that each time the animation loops, the sound is played. (Which can be annoying if you're not into that).
**Download the EvoRedEye folder -- Extract it first, then take the following files from inside the folder and place them both in your AndroidSDK\tools folder, then run the following command(s):
Code:
adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource
adb push SPC_animation_final.mp3 /system/customize/resource -- optional
adb shell reboot
If you don't want the soundbite or it gets too annoying, you can choose not to install it or if you want to remove it; again run the following command(s):
Code:
adb shell
cd /system/customize/resource
rm SPC_animation_final.mp3
reboot
Like I said earlier, this is still a work in progress. This new bootscreen method is a little tricky and I've had to fool around for a couple of days just trying to get it this far. I'll continue updating and releasing new stuff though.
Feedback is always appreciated, thank you!
I would give this a try but I am not allowed now
I will have to sneak in as an anonymous user and grab the zip.

To make these bootscreens, you'll do:
1. Software (Gimp, Photoshop, Pain.net, etc)
2. Knowledge of how to create a .gif file or animation
3. Basic knowledge of ADB
And yes, you do have to be rooted.
To create bootscreens for the Evo, you'll need to create you animation in one of the following programs above, then you'll want to export your animation as a set of images, which should be .png. After you've created your animation, you need set specific values in the desc file. After all of that, you would zip up your animation into a file called bootanimation.zip

I flash this today. Right now. It flashed perfect. You might consider that the animation just says droid 3 times or something and it justs keeps doing the flashing image while it boots. Cause the droid sound is really good.
This is my first boot animation, so go easy on me!
It's simple and to the point.

BIG credit goes to theidlemonk for helping me figure out what I broke on my first try!
Remember! This zip is not flashable! It must be pushed to /system/media/bootanimation.zip
If you want a reversed version, it can be found in post 12!

I don't have much free time right now, but I guess I might be able to add a few words to the bottom or the top.
Nice work on the animation, but here comes the not so good part. As a father of a handicapped child I think you could have choose some different wording. But other than that great job on your work.

LOL...He idn't pick those words. The Anime it came from did.

Well from reading this all I thought was that he made the whole thing.
"This is my first boot animation, so go easy on me!"
And I wasn't knocking him or bad mouthing him and if you read my post I congradulated him on his work.

No harm, no foul. But yeah, it was taken straight from the anime. I didn't pick the words.
Nice work SolsticeZero.
Update: Tried it on my EVO running Myn 2point2. Looks SWEET.
I moved the file to the system>customize>resource folder though.
Attaching a flashable zip (updater) if anyone needs it.
Just so everyone knows, the quote is originally from Catcher in the Rye. And the rest of the quote, to paraphrase, is "that way, people would have to pass me notes on slips of paper, and I wouldn't have to talk to people."
The quote is a coping mechanism for the lead character.
Just thought that might clear things up a bit.
Omg awesome!!!
Animation looks good, but I think one small change could make it a little better. With the Text scrolling clockwise, to read it your eyes have to play "Catch-up" with the movement. If it would be possible to reverse the text scrolling, it may be a little easier on the eyes. Just an opinion.

The way its playing is exactly how it did in the show. But I made a reverse of the animation if you want it. Just rename to bootanimation.zip and adb push to proper location.
-Great work by the way SolsticeZero. I love GITS. One of my favs.

If its a flashable zip then just flash it like you would a rom through recovery.
Else you would need to use adb.
I dig the animation, but is there any way to make a little faster/smoother? It just seems a bit slow and laggy when booting up.
Just nitpicking though, great job OP!

Im using the ggingerbbread-6, i think its based on CM-6? but has the alpho fix for the WiMax...
First I did not create any of the artwork in these boot animations. I mixed the sound for some, and for others I mixed and matched images found throughout the internet (especially the portal animation). To give credit where credit is due, I used a lot of JaiRomeo's stuff so check him out at JaiThemes
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED TO YOUR PHONE!! Although, I don't know how you would mess up your phone with a boot animation.
Each file is either the bootanimation.zip or a .rar file that contains the bootanimation.zip and PowerOn.ogg files you need to put in /system/media and /system/media/audio/poweron respectively. Edit: Apparently with CM7 you have to do some magic to get the sound to work on boot animations, supposedly there is a kernel available that allows for sound. I have not tried this method out yet, so post your results if you try it out.
The speed shown on the images here is a little different from the boot animation. Last random thought, when your phone is starting up the user preferences for sound takes over after so long, makes it sound weird sometimes so I've tried to keep the sounds short.
To install simply
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/
or
adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/
adb remount
and to test the animation without rebooting
Code:
adb shell
bootanimation
CTRL + C to end animation

This is a mix of the nexus animation and the Galaxy Nexus commercial. It is a HUGE (22Mb) zip, but I've tested it running CM7 and it works. Just makes the boot a little longer sometimes since it plays the entire cycle. Then it'll loop the nexus animation until boot. (No sound)
Mix-Match
Mix-Match 2 (smaller version, 15Mb. Slowed down a bit as well.)
This one is all icecreamisdrugs work, I updated it to CM7,cropped it to the right size and added the Power House music. Also added a newer version with more color.
CM Fill Up , CM Fill Up Multicolor
Combined HaLo2FrEeEk's Matrix with JaiRomeo's Neodroid JaiVatar
Red Matrix
I put a bunch of stuff together, android by JaiRomeo
Portal Smash Apple
No clue who initially made this one, I know it comes from a commercial overseas by SK Telecom originally. I swapped some frames around, mixed the sound, and threw together the G2x portion.
Bad Android
"Iron Droid" has 2 different .ogg files, chose you poison, then rename the one you want PowerOn.ogg
Design made completely by JaiRomeo, I just animated it.
Iron Android
I don't know who made this one, if you know please let me know so I can update this. Also, no sound.
Android Flames

I honestly don't know how to click "thanks" for this, but thank you!!
thanks for the credit. I believe the commercial is by SK Telecom.
HaLo2FrEeEk made a blue and a green matrix as well; if anyone wants me to blend them like the red one, let me know. I'm not going to bother with them otherwise. Also the red matrix file has a .mp3 file so you can preview and decide if you want to use that sound or not.
can these be used for shut down animations, and if so how do you do it.
anyone know?

No, you have to edit the images in the PowerOff.apk in /system/app I haven't played with those yet so I have no clue how difficult it is.
Funny note on that though, that .apk also contains Verizon images as well as LG images.
Curious, I just updated back to CM7 nighties. Where the hell do I put the PowerOn.ogg file now? I've tried recreating a directory called poweron in the system/media folder and the data/local folder. Anyone know?
I did the same thing and no luck

Edit: Never mind, nothing to see here. I can't reproduce my sound success

There is a thanks button at the bottom right of every post in the forum along with "quick reply" etc.
The last flame one doesn't fit the screen, its very small. Its def my favorite though, simple yet busy.
Weird...it worked when I tested it. I'll check it out again this weekend. It's been downloaded a lot too.

ok so i threw the bad android one on my phone and i get nothing like that....all i get is .....android, and its flashing across it from left to right?
Try redownloading. I'll download it and see whats up when I get a chance, multiupload may be screwing it up. Like the flame animation before you, this one has been download a metric butt ton and nobody has complained yet. I will look at it though

This is the only one I had sitting around for this animation.
I've tried to use a couple of these several times but keep getting just a flashing android instead of full animation. Are these not working? I'm using root explorer.

If I am using Weapons do I need to delete the bootanimation zip already in media?
