Ok this HAS to be done. I wonder why someone who has the skills to make boot animations hasn't made this one already!!
Im sure most of you who are Android fanatics and who hate Apple (i think its safe to assume if ur the former then ur also the latter ) must surely know of the famous pic of the Android mascot takin a leak on the apple logo. Ill post the pic for those of u who havnt seen it. (shame on you!! lol)
My idea would be to have the apple symbol stay where it is in the picture, and:
1) Have the Android peak out from the left of the picture
2) Look down at the apple (like how Southpark characters look at someone when thinking, "what..the..****?")
3) Then look up to his left then his right (to see if ne one is around)
4) Walk over to the apple
5) Look left then right again
6) Take a leak on it
7) Turn around and walk back off the screen to the left
8) After he is off the screen then flash ANDROID across the top using that same font shown in the pic
This would be my bootanimation FOR LIFE rofl. So plz, anyone out there with the skills to make this come tru I beg you, PLZ CREATE THIS!!!!
brilliant, do you have to be rooted to replace boot animation?
That would be a great great thing
This was done, not to the "peeking out and being sneaky" extent you describe, but one of the old G1 builds had a boot ani of android feeding apple a good stream.
Ill look into building a Nexus one though, just I dont remember the necessary formatting for nexus boots.

There is a thread in desire apps section for this bootanimation, take a look.

Well Ill be damned..I like that one, so im just gonna use it. But if ne one wants to make mine plz feel free to !!!
I like his animation a lot better. The new apple logo gives it a touch of modern-ess to our N1's. Can someone please make this?
Yea like I just stated, I would still appreciate if someone made my version. Although breaking the apple with the bat is awesome, I think the sneakyness with a Southpark feel would be funnier. And yea, the modern apple would be more visually appealing along with smoother animations.
Maybe Ill have my friend make one for me since he does Flash and is good with Illustrator.

That was painful to read.
I got one of my designer friends working on this in Flash. Hopefully he will add his creative twist and we can get something really nice.
Sounds like a great idea, subscriped to the thread.
I recently started learning how to do some work in the community with splash screens. Initially I just did three as copies of an image from another community member (got his permission), but I seem to be making more and more thus the need for a singular thread.
So far, these are all simply splash screens for the Synergy Roms, however as splash screens go, well it doesn't matter what rom you're running, would just be a bit strange running savaged mod with a Synergy splash, but thats on y'all.
Anyway, as I get better then I'll branch into boot animations or lockscreen mods and maybe even theming roms, but for the moment this is it.
If you have a particular image you want made into one, I can give it a shot. I wish I had more talent as a digital artist, but since I don't then I use images I can find and get permission when at all possible.
Thanks for stopping by.
Instructions for installing any of my splash screens:
1) Remove everything after the "-" from the filename so it is just "PC36IMG" or if you have file extensions set to show, it will read "PC36IMG.zip".
2) Copy it to the root of your SD Card.
3) Reboot the phone into bootloader.
4) Bootloader should automatically detect it and ask you if you want to install it, hit Volume up for yes.
5) A couple seconds later it will prompt you to reboot with another Volume up, go fer it.
6) Your new splash screen will show up, the peasants will rejoice, and peace will reign across the land. Well, can't guarantee all that, but look for one of the above to happen.
Some examples of whats going on in this thread:
Synergy Splash Screens
So this is the set that I took the image from whiterider13 with his permission, they turned out pretty decent.
Some other Rom Splash Screens
More Synergy Screens
Miscellaneous Splash Screens
Testing out this style, seems to have gotten good reception so far. Will probably tweak it so it doesn't look quite so hacked together a little later, but let me know what you think. I'll probably start sorting through a green and red version later.
Three more I just wrapped up, feels like a step backwards from my last one, but they look decent. I think I did them just to offer variety more than anything.

Alright, I gotta admit, these look pretty slick in my opinion, despite the simplicity. Getting the color to change right was a big pain, and I'm still going to work on getting the blue one to look a hair cleaner than it does, but overall I think they look good. Hope you all enjoy.

Hello again forum. So I spent quite a bit more time on this than the original blue one, I tried pretty hard to make sure it doesn't look too "busy". I'm still not entirely satisfied with it, but it appears to be coming along as a work in progress. However I do think it looks pretty cool for what it is right now. Let me know what you guys think though, thanks.
Crafted a simple signature, nothing fancy, just functional.
Great job on the splash screens....I have personally chosen the green swoosh splash as my splash screen...Thanks and once again, great work.

Exactly what i was thinking.
OP, every one of these is beautiful. I will be changing my splash, i guess. I've been using the same one since about august '10.
Thanks for these, and thanks for always offering a blue version.

Now if you could add some animation to that it could also make an awesome bootanimation

Actually that is kind of the plan, gotta fix the way Gimp is processing the font, clean everything up a bit, make a couple of small tweaks to it, generate the red version and reverse produce the final product for the other colors, then animate it. I'm also tempted to do a "noir" version of each splash screen cause I know there's anti-color folks out there. I don't want them to be simple black, white and shades of gray....I'm looking for them to maintain the same feel, just a lot more subtly. But that will be a bit further down the road. Thanks though for all the praise.

I love this theme! Great work again Bill. Here's a screenshot of it in action(with a different wp). I would like to request a different look for the vibrate/silent icon, it looks out of place.
you're right..it does.. guess i missed one. i'll run back through it again and make a quick update. Nice looking out. And glad you like it.
Great work as always Bill, looks fantastic. Thanks for all you do!
Not trying to be ocd or anything, but I noticed on the clock/weather widget the top of some letters for day/month are cut off. Not a big deal to me, just thought you should know. Thanks again for your great work.
That one I did catch, but I like the look of the clock with the larger panels more than I do the day and month. On another note, after tip toeing through the theme, several things caught my eye that I thought could be better..so, putting something new out in just a little bit..sometimEd you have to step away from it..after looking at thousands of graphics, you trend to miss things.

Okay gang, made a few adjustments to the theme, so the OP link has been updated with the new version. The only changes were cosmetic. I fixed a few things and decided that I had used the same buttons on the last 2 themes, so I changed them and the pop up windows a bit. And, reluctantly, adjusted the clock panels. A few other minor things were altered as well. Anyhoo, I hope you like it. And thank you.
Quiet today..can I assume that everything is working well, and everyone is happy with the theme?
Everything's working perfect for me. Its my favorite do far. Thanks for all the hard work.

Here are a few test splash screens - let me know if you like these or want something different.
NST_American_Metal_-_PC36IMG.zip
NST_American_Metal_-_Masika_-_PC36IMG.zip
NST_American_Metal_-_Challenger_-_PC36IMG.zip
To use these splash screens:
1.) download to root of your sd card,
2.) change name to "PC36IMG" (without the quotes),
3.) boot into boot loader (turn off, volume down + power)
4.) The phone should recognize the zip and ask if you want to update
5.) select up to apply.
Man kfunk, your are so damn SICK! I love the way toy warped the flag in the first one. You're awesome.
Good looking theme bill and just in time for the 4th of July (lol)

Is anyone else having issues with the notification pull down? Mine will not work most of the time. It was fine for the first day, then it just stopped working. I also had a few twitches where the clock app would open up as if I touched the widget, the phone screen had not been touched for several minutes before it happened. I currently run OTA rls5 w/chopsuey, a2sd and at that time V6. I have rebooted, without luck, then used GW's wipeall, reflashed fresh downloads of rls5/chopsuey/a2sd and American Metal. Still can't pull down the notification bar. I can access by using menu/notifications, but that's it. I have not added any apps or changed anything since flashing this theme, and came from using CIWYW.
Wow...no I've never had that issue...but I will flash back to stock and try to recreate it to see if I can find the issue. Sorry that's happening to you.
Don't be sorry, I still love this theme. The best way I can explain it is, its like the touchscreen feature doesn't work, but only in the notification bar, the rest of my homescreen works fine. Thanks for looking into it, like I said, it didn't start right away, took about 24 hours for first problem to show up. Not even sure its the theme, that's why I reflashed everything just in case.
dude this is awsome, been using it since the relase no prb what so ever... great work.
can't wait to see what you cook up next... and your splash screens are awsome aswell
thanks for the great work.
I would like to know if there is anyway to change the splash screen before the boot animation? I've been looking for tutorials but all of them require fastboot and the g2x doesn't have that Please reply quickly
there is a way I haven't a clue though I miss that about my MyTouch 3g and G1, EB ICS build 3 had a different splash screen instead of the blue&purplish LG... I haven't a clue though!
It's all in the kernel. Trinity's kernel have a custom splash screen. I'm not sure which file you need to replace though. I wish it was as simple as HTC Phones. I'd love to have the Nexus One's splash screen on my G2x!
I really hope someone out there does... and is it just me or do you also have two splash screens one white lg and a second right after that is metal polished look and has the blue/purple lines

its in the kernel, and changing it requires having all the tools and setup needed to build an android kernel. (its not as easy as it looks)
if you want to kill a weekend and learn about how its done, i reccomend giving it a shot
i dont know the exact file, but if you message Morfic on his IRC channel im sure he would be more then happy to help you. (hes cool like that )

Holy crap batboy! Not only are these usefull in a real world sense, they actualy work and give you the baddest boot up animation ever. Also got rid of that horrible power up sound I could never seem to kill. ChainFire does it again! I am SO happy right now, if you dont have this your life is not as bright as it could be! I almost forgot, you can run them both at the same time in a split screen like I am doing in the pic, or you can run one or the other. I really like the split screen. You can also warm boot from either of them at any time. Very handy. Last thing, there are free versions of this from ChainFire but the paid version isn't that much for both and you can hide the copyright so it looks all custom and such.

You can even double the size of the type, its the best boot up animation ever!
