Boot Animations
Installation
The first splash has to be flashed to the device; follow these steps
1 - Unzip xdasplash.bmp.rar to a folder on your desktop
2 - Connect you phone via activesync and make sure battery is >50%
3 - Run the CustomRuu that was in the zip
4 - Follow the on screen instructions
Dont worry no data will be deleted from your device
The boot animation should be placed in your windows folder on device memory.
Rename to either "animated" or "LEO_animated"
(depends on device, check your windows folder to see which one you already have there)
The welcomehead is the same.
May need to be named either "welcomehead192" or "well"

I'm Happy to Inspire You , specially becouse your work is fantastic !
I've added cabed versions of welcome screen and animation.

Looks good...thanks bro.

Awesome Work
Hey man , this is really good ....
Suggestion : How about creating some more fluidy animations with XDA-devs logo ???
Lets Improvise

the animations are pretty basic because I figured our how to make them yesterday if anyone wants to contribute then feel free....

Hi Madraum,
With these cabs do we still have to flash anything or will they install
on opening the Cabs ? It's the first Welcomehead screen,I'm concerned about here
really,I've installed other animation screens before,but never the Welcomehead
with the Radio and ROM info...
Thanx

Nope this cabs are only for animation and welcome . As for splash you must go like flashing radio or rom( there is no other way) but don't worry nothing bad will happen. This image change only splash screen when you power on your pda and its compleatly safe

Cheers Bud,so nothing for it,but to give it a try I guess...

Yup

Hey MadrauM, I tried to reply to your message last night but the server was overloaded
Thanks for making the cabs.
I was going to do it myself but I see you've beaten me to it
Thanks very much man
@marc
I was a bit wary the first time I flashed one but once you get the first one out of the way its ok

Ca i brick my milestone 2 with this?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the short answer is. I don't know....
welcomeheads and animations will be fine but the splash screen requires you to flash it to the device using the custom ruu.
ok ive just googled the milestone and its an android device so these are not compatible with your device.
these are for winmo only. sorry.....
shouldn't be hard for someone to make an android version though if you ask nicely
I see this made the portal
thanks!
if anyone knows who's responsible for the xda logos then let me know so they can be credited in the first post!

Hey Buddy, is This Work For all of Devices?
i Want to try On my redmi note 4....

[Boot Animation] fancy custom Android logo wave

Hello all, I'm more or less new to the forums and I just want to say thank you for all the great support and content! So here is me trying to "give back to the community"
"Important: As usual this boot animation zip is not flashable and must be pushed via ADB or copied to your SDcard and then moved to the correct system folders.
Instructions: Push or copy the file "bootanimation.zip" just as it is d/l'd to either
/system/customize/resource or /system/media on your phone."
Still Image Sample:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
the animation loops seamlessly...
low quality flash animation here
the zip file: bootanimation.zip
---
flashable zip for android 2.3.x aosp roms, courtesy of XsMagical
DOWNLOAD BootAnimation
---
there is no sound file.
Note:If anyone wants a higher quality version let me know...if you think your phone can handle it
Also, if anyone wants a custom image on that wave instead of the android logo, I wont mind making it, as long as enough people "second" the idea.

I can't see the two images you have on your post.
I'm assuming your talking about the USA flag yes?
Also do you mean the CM7 logo, and if so, just the logo, or the cm7 text under it?
I think just the logo would look cleaner, yes/no?

Those are my banners not attachments lol
Yes I mean the united states flag
by cm7 I mean like a cyan colored flag with the cm7 logo instead of the android logo and maybe 'cm7' or 'cyangogenmod 7' under the 'android' or something, if you think you can make it look good that is
Again great animation and plz n thnx!

Do you by any chance mean downanimation?
I am planning to come up with a short one for that. One that matches this bootanimation of course.

Thread updated
Included downanimation!

My guess is you extracted and copied the bootanimation.zip to the supposed location? If yes, then:
1. Make sure the file is named correctly (must same as the original file you are going to overwrite)
2. Setting the right permission
As shown here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16154535&postcount=6
Try this and see if it works.

hmm tried but still a black screen

Hmmm, that's weird. Could it be because the file I used are .jpg instead of let me convert them to .png and see if it works.

[Q] Bootanimation From Blast-off Kernel

Hello All!
I was trying to flash bhundven's Blastoff Kernel. For some reason it caused system wide force closes.
I'm really not that worried about it, I was just playing around, but what I'm mainly interested in is the bootanimation that the kernel put on my phone.
It actually had two. The first was this sweet team acid logo, followed by the rom installed unicorn (I'm on Valhalla Final).
Does anybody know....
A. How could I obtain that team acid bootanimation?, and
B. How could I place the obtained bootanimation in front of my current one so I could have both?
I currently am using a cool green bios bootanimation I found in the forums.
Thanks All!
Matt

when i have access to the pc, i'll provide a link to the bootanimation that i also made.
edit: link for the bootanimation is here providing this is the right one you wanted. just push to system/media. this is also providing you are on a kernel that supports custom bootanimations now.

That was the image I was looking for. However what I'm trying to do is put the team acid part of the bootanimation(part 0) in front of my bootanimation I'm currently using.
Is that possible? I'm sure it is just a matter of editing the text file that comes in the boot animation zip, I just don't know how to do it.....

thanks coop your the man! I read a thread on boot and shutdown animations but I just couldn't get it...and I have too much going to to take the time out right how.
I attached my current bootanimation. In the interest of clarity, I would like the team acid logo portion of the boot animation gfx myst attached above (part 0) in front of my boot animation I just attached. Mine has two parts also, I like part 0 from mine too. That's why I couldn't figure it out. I was trying to take part 0 from myst animation, rename it to part 1 and copy it to mine. Didn't work. Once again, thanks!
Matt

I think you should know that if your boot animation is longer then the time it takes to boot to android it WILL cut the animation short. Be aware even if he gets it working it might not show the animation properly. There has been requests to slow boot times so the animation shows and well the devs and most people have laughed. I think there is a tool out there that will allow you to create a live wallpaper from bootanimations but I have no idea where to look. I vaguely remember people talking about it.

Thanks for the info man. I try to soak up as much as possible.
I'm pretty sure it will work. I'm currently using a 2 part bootanimantion, I'm just trying to delete one part from each and then merge the remainder.
We'll see.
Either way, good input and thanks!

In my experience, it has finished the boot animation for me... anyways I will work on at and should have it working by Sunday... I have school and stuff so yeah.

They do. But can also make a flashable zip for it too. I used to make splash screens back in the day with Samsung phones. Idk if I can with LG. But I will try and see if it works.

OP can you add "power by android" On these two pictures? I want to make them for splash screens

Thanks for the feedback.

I'm having some issues trying to do this as bootsplash. I have the kernel decompiled with Android Kitchen, converted that picture as RLE format, paste it on the kernel and replaced with orignal, compiled, flashed and I get fastboot message and it wont boot. Maybe because of the resolution of that picture??
I'm kinda busy and doing it on the little free time I have. If somebody wanna join me and help that would be wonder...
