Thanks much appreciated!

no problem, if u need help making one just let me know

can you look at this please and see why it wont work..

Process is totally different to the g1 as the boot animation resides in a different place and is actually a collection ofpng images.
I haven't been able to get it working either i have tried rezipping the files after editing. Tried dropping the images into a zip without unzipping. Alwaysr results in a black screen. Maybe one of the guys who have got it going can help?

its not different for a g1 using a 2.1 rom.
problem is you have a folder called bootanimation within the zip, it should just be bootanimation.zip with part0, part1 and desc.txt
and the images are compressed within the zip, the zip should be set to store only

Hey i also want to make my own bootanimation. For this i search this short flash animation which was used on the google developer conference. All the small green androids who change their design.
Perhaps someone can help me, and i hope everyone understands what i try to say.

Does anyone know any of those boot ani that you can find for lots of phones? I know for example the Z Ultra has one for it.
Obviously they are edited to show the specs of the phone but yea.

It's very simple to create Bootanimation...
You have simple txt file desc.txt in which you can set resolution, loop animation and first animation.
You have great tools for creating animations...
I have few of my own but just can't find time to create new ones

Wow, my post was badly worded.
What I meant was.. Some boot animations have this bios boot animation reading the specs of the phones etc. So I was wondering if someone knew if it existed for Z1 !

Those bootanimations don't really read the specs for the phone, they are made up of images just like all bootanimations. You could just take the ones already in existence and resize the images in the .zip, change the wording on the images and then put it on your Z1

Or just download that "bios" Bootanimation, open zip and find desc.txt file, open it and change resolution to resolution of your phone
Save and put bootanimation.zip in system/media

Yeah...just download.
We don't all in our pockets, mate.
Use Google search, not XDA and you'll find it without any problems.
First result is what you can't find!
Just use Google and find resolution for your phone.

Why would I want a bios bootani for Nexus on my Z1 ?
I've googled and there are lots of bios bootani but how does that help me. You can't just edit the text from the png like that so it's pretty useless.
I could wipe the current text and redo all 100+ pictures but thats lots of work, hence why I asked here first.

If you want to built your own Bootanimation, use that pngs and and programs for PC - it's damm easy.
If I or someone else have animation we would post it but we don't have so - try to find it.
You have Google and search like we all do.
On that first link you have animation for 10-15 devices - maybe there's one for your resolution - don't search for your phone, search for your resolution.
And there's animations for many phones, not only Nexus.
Bootanimation is bootanimation - diference is only on resolution. - I thought you know that.
Download for other phone, edit pngs and build bootanimation if you don't like text on it.
You have tutorials on YouTube - and it's very easy to do that.

I asked if anyone knew if there was a BIOS bootani tailored for Z1 , not some random bootanimation.
It's time consuming which is why I asked first instead of redoing one.
So all in all, I don't want a bios bootani for another phone on my Z1, because that would defeat the purpose.
I've googled and I guess the only solution is to edit one . Sorry for being so confusing at the beginning.

Added one more

I tried both of these and they both didn't work. I tried other bootanimations and they worked fine. I'm on a Nexus 5, but that shouldn't matter. I'd really like this to work on my device as I can't find the Xperia Z1's stock Jelly Bean bootanimation either. I need that one, too. Thank you!

Moto X & G Winter Bootanimation! [Download]

I know that some of you guys want this boot animation and it has not been available (as far as I know). So, I found 2 parts of the video. The first half of the boot animation and the second half. I combined those two using Photoshop and added a nice transition (fade i think). I spliced the video into 640 images - 1 per frame. Boot Animation factory was a great tool in compiling the desc.txt file for me. Okay, enough blabbering .
Here it is: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9ux59lruez5zcdw/bootanimation.zip
P.S. It's a bootanimation.zip. Don't try to flash it. I'll make a flashable one later for the lazies

The actual winter bootanimation.zip is located under /data/local/moodle/.

[MOD][SPLASH][PIXEL][Nexus 2015] logo.bin and bootanimations

Ey
Just sharing a mod i quickly made for the Oneplus 3. Works ONLY for op3. No op3t or op2 or any other device supported
It contains a modded logo.bin file to get the 2015 Nexus 5x and Nexus 6p splash screen instead of Oneplus logo, and stock Nexus bootanimation (Marshmallow/Nougat One)
EDIT : Available as Pixel bootlogo and bootanimation as well
EDIT 2 : Revert to stock and simpleStock zips are available as well
First, thanks to @makers_mark who made this possible thanks to his mod. Take a minut to visit his MOD XDA THREAD
Here are the zips :
- Nexus2015Logo+Bootanim
- PixelLogo
- PixelBlack ! thanks @Rakpere / PixelBlack ! without "Powered by android" mention
- New StockSimple bootanimation and splash, from OOS 3.x, with removed "Powered by android" mention
- Revert to stock logo.bin
Enjoy

Thank you! :good:

Nice! I already flashed this
One issue though: bootlogo works, but bootanimation seems to be corrupt. Flashing the zip doesnt give the new bootanimation, and manually placing it into /system/media (bootanimation that's inside your zip) will put a black screen.

Tested myself just now again, and worked. I was trying to make a Pixel splash screen + bootanimation but their new bootanimation is f*cked up and makes graphics glitches. Worked here, maybe its a corrupted upload. Try to download again from OP, im reuploading it right now, with fixed system mount in twrp (my bad i forgot the line in flashable script lol)
Sooooo, tell me if it works now
Btw, im using AICP Nougat now, so maybe the bootanimation only works on Nougat+, cuz i downloaded Nexus 5x 7.0 october factory image to dump the bootanimation.zip from. But i was kinda disapointed when i seen it was same as Marshmallow, so N5X Marshmallow bootanimation shall work (you can get n5x bootanim from here)

Boom Pixel bootlogo and bootanim is live !

Btw I took an average 2 minutes to make the Pixel one easy as f*ck thanks to @makers_mark
I just extracted first PNG from Pixel bootanimation, centered the logo in a white background using Windows 7 PAINT, save as PNG, recompile logo, use flashable zip from Nexus 2015 zip I made a few days ago, and that's it
Anybody is free to take my zips, extract them and replace logo.bin and bootanimation.zip with their customs one. Just don't reupload same zip elsewhere

@dekefake you are the best! I was just looking for this Pixel mod yesterday but I couldn't find anything.. and today I found your mod Thanks man!

It seems a bit large to me than normal, so I resized it to 1080p so that it would fit to our device. I've attached 7.0 (Nexus) and 7.1 (Pixel) versions if anyone's interested.

Yours are still in 1440p, which appears large for our device. I resized it to 1080p to keep its proportion with the Pixel's.
