This is the Droid dance boot animation that I customized a little to work good with my evo. I made it have twice as many frames and run twice as fast. It looks great and has no lag. Just rename it to bootanimation.zip and use Root Explorer to replace your original in /system/customize/resource and it should run when u reboot. If you want a sound clip to go with it use ringdroid app to make a 20 second .mp3 clip for the Droid to dance to and rename it to SPC_animation_final.mp3 and put it in the same folder. Good luck and enjoy.http://db.tt/tdsEB50
I take no credit for this other than moving some .jpgs around and renaming them and redoing the folder setup to make it work correctly. I plan to refine this alittle more and remove the black bars. Also if anyone would like to help me make a flashable zip out of this PM me and I would really appreciate it. I will upload this to mediafire when I get home from work because dropbox limits downloads. Thanks and please don't think I am trying to rip off anyone's work. It just didn't work for me off the bat so I refined it and figured I would share.
EDIT: I have a redone it to a fullscreen version and it looks much better and still runs just as good. Here is the link...bootanimation.zip
EDIT 2# I have also added 2 flashable zips for the boot animation:
1. Flashable zip for Roms that have the bootanimation.zip in \system\customize\resource (such as Baked Snack, Stock) use RingDroid.apk to cut a 20sec music clip and rename it SPC_animation_final.mp3 and put in the same folder. Here is the link.
2. Flashable zip for Roms that have the bootanimation.zip in \system\media (such as Caulklin's EVio 2) use RingDroid.apk to cut a 20sec music clip and rename it to android_audio.mp3 and put it in the same folder. Here is the link.
These 2 .ZIPS are identical other than where they place the boot animation because some roms put them in different folders. I have not tested the .ZIP for the customize folder yet because I am currently running Caulklin's amazing EVio 2 1.5 rom. Please post your results with these files and also I would appreciate it if you would rate the quality. Thanks and Good luck!
Fullscreen version now in OP.
Thanks, Ill try this out later. For Cyanogen users, the .zip also must be placed in /system/media in case anyone is wondering.
Does the audio clip have to be 20 seconds for it to work?
any chance of making it with the background being black?
sometimes it seems like it speeds through the animation.. usually it stops on him facing away (he doesn't dance until the phone has booted).. any thoughts?

if you are asking if the animation will work if the audio is not 20 seconds exactly, then yes.. mine works without audio
Where does ringdroid send the file once I save it? Cant find it anywhere.
Flashed the .zip for media on Cyanogen. Didnt work.

flashable zip 1 works on myns warm rls3. thank you
Going back to previous version with black bars. This version is too short and stops about 10-15 seconds before my phone boots up.
Ian B
Could you make it run about 10 seconds longer? Love the fullscreen otherwise.
Sorry for the problems guys, I don't use Cyanogen so I'm not sure what the problem is I would be very thankful if someone with some knowledge on making flashable zips could edit this to work on CM, I would definitely add it to the OP.
Also, I guess our phones run alittle different because the speed and timing for the bootanimation is perfect on my phone with every rom I have put it on. I will work on these as soon as I get a weekend (could possibly be after thanksgiving, sorry have been really busy at work lately). I will try slowing it down just alittle and also add some more frames and try to figure out how to make it loop correctly so it won't just freeze until the phone boots.
Sorry again for the problems, this is my first bootanimation so I'm still learning. I actually just wanted to get this working on my phone and decided to share it. I will update the OP as soon as I have the time to refine this further.
ty
thanks man!
now trying to think of a song!
o yes! thanks man!
Used the zip file and added a song.. imma add it to my post. i will give you credit!
Great Job, will try this.....
Neat!
Works great on Myn's 2.2. I picked "I Don't Feel Like Dancing" from Scissor Sisters for the boot audio. Pretty funny. I have attached the edited version I am using. It might run a little long for some (about 35 seconds) but you can use Ringdroid to edit it.
This is not a flashable zip. Just extract/unzip the .mp3 and move it to the /system/customize/resource folder. If you want to save the original boot audio file be sure to rename it before moving or copying this one.

can anybody port the stock sprint evo bootscreen for our hero's? i know it's pretty basic but i like the look of it.
Possibly
I have been customizing the stock bootscreen for the Hero. If you have the Evo files or a .gif animation I can give it a try.

You are right, sorry. I thought the first zip file was the stock one. Oops, I will post a question on the Evo board to request the stock boot screen animation since I do not see one anywhere on the internet.

Good new and bad news.
It turns out that the bootanimation.zip, in the link provided works fine on the OEM release w/ROOT and the latest [ROM] Cyanogenmod 6.0.0 Test 4 For Hero CDMA.
I am still a "Junior Member" so I cannot post links or files.
Anyway.... since these 2 releases use the bootanimation.zip for the animation, any sequence of .PNG files with the proper desc.txt file will work in .ZIP format. Even if the resolution is incorrect.
Audio has been my problem at this point. For the life of me I can't figure out how the EVO will play audio and the HEROc will not even using the bootanimation.zip config instead of the other ROM's using a .GIF file and .XML files.

In Nfinitex45's rom there is a zip file containing the same layout you discussed. I took all 35 png files out of the sprint folder which is the animation that it plays in the boot screen. What I did is created a animated gif with all those file in gimp. Then took Fresh's rom 2.0d. And extracted the bootscreen folder. I took that xml file with some of those animated gif files along with the one i created from all the png files and created a bootscreen with animation and sound. I did this to test out if it would work and it seemed to work, after removing the .zip file in system/media. And placing the bootscreen folder in system/media. The only thing I see that we will need to do for this animation is change the size of the pics to the hero's resolution, besides that do the same procedure and it should work. (i think)
I have noticed with some rom's people use the .gif .xml combo. I will try doing what you said and we'll see what happens.
Also does Fresh's rom 2.0d play audio on boot, i am curious if there is a line in the .xml file that calls to a specific .mp3 file?

Yes it has a line for the audio that plays mp3's.
Yup..
It all depends on the ROM. Some use a .zip file with a series of .png images and a properly formatted .desc file.
Other Rom's use an .xml file with a .gif animation and .mp3 file for audio on boot.
seems like roms built for sprint using android 1.5 or 1.6 used .xml config, newer 2.1+ roms are using the .zip .png combo??????
I really don't see a pattern.
Long story short the files provided can be used for ROM's that use the xml config because it supports audio on boot.
That's all I got..

Yeah I tried to create the boot animation as well, but the images got all discolored when creating a gif. I tried several times only to fail, so I gave up. What's weird is I did the same thing for the files contained in Nfinitex45's rom and it worked fine. IDK?!?

Thanks for creating it.
UPDATE:
First I want to thank every one, I also want to give a shout out to
Mrdaviso for making the sound possible on cm7, please give him thanks for his thread on this. I've been waiting to have sound for the animation for sooo long and now it finally works and thanks to him.
I stripped all the text out of the animation except for the android logo and the preview below is exactly what it is, he screams and then stares at you and blinks until your phone boots.
The scream I choose is one I thought was appropriate... the original Godzilla roar! But if you really want, and I honestly would love to see more sound files made, please offer others. You can use mine as a template for syncing with the animation. I love to see others post sounds for this!
Heres the d/l link hope you guys like this.This zip file contains the bootanimation.zip, android_audio.mp3 (godzilla) and the bootsnd.sh (to setup sound playing on phone bootup)
Installation of the new un-branded versions with sound!!! PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:
First how to setup boot animation sound on cm (link to the op):
To install boot animation:
1. just unzip the screaming_android_with_sound.zip file on the root of your sdcard
2. copy the bootanimation.zip file to the system/media folder replacing the old one or renaming the old one and copying this one over if your just testing.
3. Android wins again!
Changing the ResolutionThe resolution for the animation is 480X800 if you'd like a different size:
1. copy the bootanimation.zip file to your computer.
2. open the zip and edit the desc.txt 's second line (480 800 not the 25 read below) to match your phones resolution.
3. save the file and close the zip program
4. you shouldn't need to unzip the bootanimation.zip file to do the above
5. if you do need/want to unzip it when rezipping make sure the compression level your zipping it on is "store" or it won't work.
Sound doesnt seem to match up?... change to animation speed in the desc.txt file:
1. copy the bootanimation.zip file to your computer.
2. open the zip and edit the desc.txt 's second line (only the 25 not the first 2 numbers) to speed it up or slow it down.
3. save the file and close the zip program
4. you shouldn't need to unzip the bootanimation.zip file to do the above
5. if you do need/want to unzip it when rezipping make sure the compression level your zipping it on is "store" or it won't work.
NOTES:
want a different sound on the animation... the sound file has to be called android_audio.mp3 for it to play, this file will play for any new bootanimation you install unless you remove the android_audio.mp3 file and it has to be an mp3.
Programs to help... if you don't have root explorer get "Super Manager" from the market it does r/w and root privileged file exploring (and more) just like root explorer and its free.
I'm only giving this out in zip file format, I'm not doing a flashable as its to hard to keep up with all the different roms and resolutions. I provide instruction on how to change the resolution of the animation to fit your phone.

Installation of the old branded versions: just flash the the zip file below.
Screaming Droid Boot Animation Flashable Download 320 x 480 flashable to system/media
Screaming Droid Boot Animation 480 x 800 This is just the boot animation, rename and install where needed.
Screaming Droid Boot Animation Flashable 480 x 800 This flashable installs to the data/local folder if this isn't where you need it use the above bootanimation.zip and place it where its needed.
Screaming Droid Boot Animation Flashable 240 x 320 This installs to the system/media folder if this wont work for you i'll post the bootnaimation.zip and you can push it or you can pull it out of the flashable and push it.
Push Instructions:
use adb and push the bootanimation.zip (which must be in the tools folder which is inside your android-sdk folder) to /system/customize/resource, /data/local, /system/media, i think you only need to push it to the first one, but try all 3 just in case
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media or /data/local or system/resource/customize
or with term app
first copy bootanimation.zip on your SDCard
run terminal
and write
#su
#mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
(now you can write to /system)
("browse" to location, where you have copied bootanimation.zip, if it is in root of your card)
#cd /sdcard
(you can check if it is there)
#ls
(now just copy it)
#cp bootanimation.zip /system/media
(you can exit, and reboot, new animation should work, enjoy)

Looks good man ... Great job on it. Do u plan on making a dark version?
Really does everything have to be black around here. Lol what do you mean by dark? Maybe if I get enough requests.
I did have a good idea for a dark boot animation... one that would be easier to make dark. The way this was ripped doesn't lend well to dark colors.
Fun stuff as always XD
Awesome job buddy

I love it! If I could add anything at all it would be sound. I think a good Jurassic Park roar would sound friggin awesome when the droid screams. I have no idea how to do that though, lol

Try this one, I had to modify the video a little bit and I added the sgt. peppers mp3 to it, it should work.
If you don't like this song, or want to change it, you should be able to do it easily (if you change the song, make sure you call it "sgtpeppers" even though it will be a different song, unless you change the song name in the desc.txt file).
Apply through bootstrap, do not rename to bootanimation.zip.

As someone who pioneered sound on the X, I would just like to point out that sounds work on ANY rom, as long as you do it the right way.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=F7V2IPS4
At that link is a .zip that should help out everybody.
Basically its an empty installable .zip that is installed easily through clockwork. You just need to place your audio file, and bootanimation.zip folder in the .zips system/media folder. As long as your desc.txt is correctly formatted, and bootanimation.zip is done properly then all that needs to be done is the bootanimation.zip in your phones data/local needs no be erased, or change the name to anything.zip.
i have included a file that goes into system/bin that *should* enable sound on any rom. It has worked perfectly through stock, rubix, and liberty..
Basically:
Unzip file
Place bootanimation.zip and audio.mp3 (or whatever you called it in you desc.txt) in the system/media
HHighligt the meta-inf and system folders, add them to archive, or zip them depending on which program you have.
ENSURE you set the compression to store, and the filetype to .zip. Name doesnt matter as this is just the install file.
Put on sdcard, clockworkmod, install, reboot and finally enjoy.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=356483&d=1278555629
that should be a file that allows to to check your animation on your computer, to see if u fudged up the desc.txt (which is real easy).
Just unzip the folder, open the file, bootanimationpreview1.5.exe then /file open your completed animation. If it plays, it will work on your phone, if not, the desc.txt is fudged.
Good luck all
For all of the Fallout fans, I just finished putting this together. I had to shrink the bootanimation though, it was to big at just half screen, the phone wouldn't even load it....
[Splash]
Put it on the SD card, reboot into hboot, flash it (only flashes the image, does not delete data)
[Animation]
Stock users; place in /system/customize/resource and overright the stock (or rename it as a backup)
Rom users; place it in the /data/local directory, and rename it to bootanimation.zip
Currently working on getting a boot sound to put on the stock but it's being a pain.........

[Splash]
Put it on the SD card, reboot into hboot, flash it (only flashes the image, does not delete data)
[Animation]
Stock users; place in /system/customize/resource and overright the stock (or rename it as a backup)
Rom users; place it in the /data/local directory, and rename it to bootanimation.zip

So, I'm guessing this isn't good to go?
Looking forward to trying it out though.
It's good to go now, still working on the sound. Anyone know the exact sample rate of the original file?
The splash is working great but not the animation. I'm on RCMixHD Kingdom ROM and put the file in the data/local directory but I still get the HTC animation. Is the location it needs to go ROM specific?
lookin in to that...
I got it working. Had to put it in the customize/resource folder.
I like it but the video is really small.
I really like the splash though
+1 on the splash - cant wait to show it to my kid.

Hey there,
I'm Will, Im a noob here, I work in motion graphics for a living. I promise not to step on your lawn.
I've been tinkering with my new phone (Galaxy S3) to try and make it look like a pip boy 3000. I also thought it would be cool to have the Boot animation be similar to the games, so I had a go at creating my own [Sorry cant post URLs Yet] problem is I cant figure out how to change it on the S3.
The file formate is QGM and I havent been able to find much on how to create them.
I was wondering if you might be able to help? or maybe your interested in collaborating? :highfive:
Let me know if you want to see the one I have done and I can Email you a link.
works
so far it works pretty well!
I know this is stupid question but can i use this bootanimation on my SGS3 GT-I9300? I asked this because i was looking for different animation and i found fallout 3 animation for sgs3 on youtube. Here's the link : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJF9YIOkyzo
thanks before
Here is the boot animation and also the theme to the show.
Push the bootanimation.zip to system/media. Rename the existing file to bootanimation.zipold.
If you want the sound push the wav file to ect and rename existing file to PowerOn.wavold. I have only tried replacing existing files not sure if will work if you have no boot sound.

Thanks to TXLunchbox for the bootanimation

Sorry for the delay on the links. Can't get the files loaded as attachments but the dropbox links are up and working!
Again use at your own risk and so far have only tested on ROM that had existing startup sound.
Glad to see you got it up nd running

Good work man!
Tip: renaming the files to bootanimation.zipold should be bootanimation.zip.old, same with the poweron.wav file. Or you could rename it to .bak, that is how some of the various apps do it so the filesystem thinks it is a backup file. I think sdmaid will remove .old files when using it that is why I suggest using the .bak extension.

thanks. Right now I'm starting out at android.com figuring out the emulator and what not. Also looking for threads to show me how to take the boot animation and package it up for flash.

Couple of things...
First, while I do appreciate the thanks, I was under the assumption you were going to add this to a full ROM you were working on and not just post it in another forum. If that was the case you could have just linked to my post that I did for this. The reason I never posted it in any other phone forums is that the resolution is set specifically for the Galaxy S Vibrant, therefore may have not looked as good on other devices.
Second, for the sound to work, it all depends on your kernel. I never did one for mine cause the majority of people that use the device I designed the bootanimation.zip for had VooDoo kernels and those do not support boot sound.
Third, if you're wanting to make it flashable you're going to have to learn the code for the recovery system you are using for the phone. I used to have a flashable version of mine, but when codes changed for CWM Recovery, I just figured it was easier to tell people where to push the file to.
Again, I do appreciate the thanks, but next time be a little clearer on what you're doing with someone else's work before posting it as your own.
Thank you
